Time-No record OF time kept
The excitement over the pacing race
had all this time been on the increase,
and the crowd seemed to be divided
into two factions, .Shacklefords and
Sorrel Jims.
The horses being called up, they were
got away on the second trial. They
made q half mile on the false start by
some one outside of the judges stand
giving the word go after they had been
called back. Shackleford had half
length the advantage in tle start, and
he held it to the quarter pole, when
jim went for him. From this to the
half mile post the Sorrel made as mag
nificeAt show Of speed as ever was
given by a pacing horse, and we bar
none. jim led to the half mile, making
it in LII. 1t was evident to all that
the heat belonged to the Sorrel, and he
won it by full length in 2:3ot.
As the daylight was getting limited
the horses were called up for two mile
trot between Rodney and Clarion
They got good send off on the second
trial, Clarion leading. Rodney went
off his feet as they went for the upper
turn. Clarion moved like a machine
leading all the way round. They made
the mile in 2:55. Rodney made splen

Just as this heat was closed, there

duration as has been seen for years. l

The Chincse.--RePort or tho Agent AM
poisatSd by tho bfemPhis Oonvsaefon.-

Tho Ohincsc---Report or tho AGENT An.
poinssasy tho ntsmPhis oenvsaeioa.,
We had the pleasure, yesterday. Of
meeting 5aud conversing With Geheral
W. r. Miles, who has Just returned
from California, to which State. he was
sent by the Immigrant and Labor Con
vention held at Memphis last July, for
the purpose of investigating and report
ing upon Chinese labor, its adaptability
to the wants Of the South and the prac-
ticability OF its chep introduction. Gen
eral Miles devoted one month to travel
ing, examining the country and observing
and studying the people and their insti-
tuition. In advance of his report we onn
state that the General confirmed the
opinions of oil intelligent and impartial
persons who have visited California, as
TO the great value, superiority and
cheapness OF Chinese labor. An active,
sagacious and inquisitiue gentleman he
made thorough and minute examina-
tion into the manners. habits and Gus
toms of the Chinese. He visited the
various establishments in which they are
employed, the wooden factories, the ma
chine shops, the foundries, the farms,
the mines and on railroads; in fine, in
every department of industry and manu-
factures, and he found in every relation
and position they were regarded as the
cheapest. most reliable and trustworthy
laborers in the State.
AS house servants, they are esteemed
as incomparably superior to oil others in
their cleanliness, docility and fidelity.
Their labor can be obtained at about
one-third the rate paid for other labor.
1t is for this reason they are perse-
cnted and oppressed by certain classes
in California. These classes, embrac-
ing large number of voters, political
aspirants and party leaders, find it to
their interest to sanction the denuncia-
tion of the Chinese, but even these nd
mitted to General Miles that for the
Southern plantation there could be no
better laborers. General Miles assures
us that the Chinese are more than ordi-
narily shrewd in making q bargain and
taking care of themselves.
Though the mission and purposes Of
General Miles were seriously interfered
with and discouraged by Boutwell's let
ter to the Collector of New Orleans, he
had every assurance that if proper Sc
curity be afforded against any attempts
on the part of the Government to pre-
vent the Introduction of these laborers,
the full demand of the South could be
in few years satisfied, at rates which
would render it the cheapest and best
labor in the world, and to tho productive
wealth and Improvement of our section.

A MILD CoMpL1MESr.--Thc Philadel-

phia Inquirer, radical paper, says:
''Since the surrender at Appomato1,
South Carolina has given less trouble
than any one of the other insurrection-
ary States. First in war, she became
first in peace. The ordeal of battle
brought sense to the former hair Drained
cavaliers. They bent their spears into
pruning-hooks and their swords into
plowshares. abided by the issue of the
war and did what they never had done
before-went to work like good citizens
and enterprising Americans And with
what result? Tie yield of products in
that State this year will amount to $780,
OOO,0OO; or an average of S74 SO per
head in population of 670.0OO. How
different and much better these results
than those produced by repining about
the inevitable.
"The other cotton States, though less
industrious than South Carolina, have
also done we'll. The yield of the staple
this year will aggregate 100000 of
bales, and the average value of all their
crops will amount in money value to S64
per head of population. This is progress
in the right direction. Yet the South
can do even better. Freed from the in
cubus of slavery, that fertile and hitherto
comparatively barren section of our coun-
try will blossom like the rose. There are
elements OF almost boundless wealth in
the great section that treason tried so
hard to make waste forever. With a
faithful devotion to the Union, stern
determination to obey and enforce all the
laws of the land, the reconstructed States
will enter upon a career of prosperity
equaled only by the marvellous progress
of tho North and West Our Southern
brethren nre but standing on the thres-
hold of their great future-their real de-
velopment has only begun. A generation
of freedom will set them fairly on the
high road to the greatness which they,
in common with their sister States, are
destined to achieve"

REPUBLICAN MsErrNa AT GADsDY

REPUBLICAN, MEETING AT GADsDEN.

retary. The chairman introduced the
following speakers: Messrs. J. q. Gum,
W. B. Nash, 8. B. Thompson, A. Good

John Gilman, J. B. Goodwin, A. John
son, 81. Minis, j. r. Tiver and James

The Mormons, it is reported, are now
discussing the question of the propriety
of abolishing polygamy. and David
Smith, the son of the well-known Joseph
Smith, the founder of the sect, has been
denouncing the practice in his sermons
lately delivered at Salt Lako City. Brig
ham Young, the present leader, who
processes to hold power in trust for
David Smith, is also reported to have
told Mr.. Colfax, two years ago. that 1t
was not improbable new revelation
might be received abolshing polygamy.
Under these circumstances change in
the institutions of the Mormons may be
expected. The Pacific Railroad has been
completed, and the difficulties expe-
rienced in 1857, in sending out troops
and supplies to Utah, will not be in
CURED. Polygamy is forbidden by the
laws Of the United States; the present or
future administrations may endeavor to
enforce the statute, and the success OF
the United States army will be certain.
Again, the Mormons desire to build a
railroad from Salt Lake City to Promon-
tory Point, the assistance in land grants
and bonds from the Government cannot
be asked for unless obedience ne pro.
missed to the laws. The current of emi-
grafton is also bringing settlers around
Salt Lake and the isolation of the Nor
mon community cannot be preserved.
AS far as the dispute in the sect is con-
cerned, David Smith is reported to be a
man of education and influence, is under
thirty years of age, while Brigham
Young is ignorant, and his powers are
on the decline. The influence OF the re-
form party, it is supposed, will be very
great, and will effect change in the
customs. - Charleston Courier.

"Where is Drake 8. T. 1860 X?" We
have heard this question asked many
times, and for all we know for year past
he might be dead. Recently, in New
York, we called at his Laboratory in
Liberty street, and there found this gen.
tleman barricaded behind tremendous
pile Of boxes, distributing funds to
Sunday School Committee. Our busi-
ness was to secure an advertisement. He
said: ''My dear sir, what is the use of
advertising the Plantation Bitters? They
sell better now than when I advertised
at such enormous expense, and now T
have not made q contract for year. I
have all this amount to give to the poor.
To satisfy the press, however, who have
always been my friends, I think I will
give you little something to do again,
for have improved the Bitters greatly,
and it may be we'll to have you let the
people know it," And 80 he ran on in
happy. cordial, appreciative manner,
showing us the wonders of his place and
the cords of certificates Everything is
on magnificent scale, and is done with
neatness and promptness. While there
we saw at least forty orders come in for
these celebrated Bitters. Gases were be-
ing shipped to the four corners of the

Kentucky promises that ere long our
bellies shall not have to send to India for
cashmere shawls. The Angora goat is
now successfully bred in this country,
and of the 5000 or 4, 900 wool-bearing
goats of the best breeds, Kentucky
claims the largest share. Neither France
nor England has been so successful as
America in acclimating this valuable ami
NAL. Kentucky, especially, is already
producing superb worsted stuff from the
Angora wool, and cashmere shawls are
the next in order.
