THE LAST SESSION OF CoNGREss.-It
is something to boast of, whatever short
conAings Congress was guilty of at the
late session, that there was no rowdyisn
in the closing hours, no jobs got through
in the hurry of the last few days, anG
that the President signed all the bills by
daylight. The land grabbers and pro-
jectors of steamboat and railroad lines,
who hoped to get fat subsidy out of the
government, mostly failed to get any
thing, and will set down their last winter
at Washington as q very improbable
one. 1t is also cause for congratulation
that not single committee of either
branch has leave to sit during the recess,
though two or three in the House tried
TO get 1t; nor has a single rowing COM
mission been authorized. Every effort to
get committee clerks continued thnauob
the recess on pay failed, and of all the
House employees none remain on duty ex-
cept those appointed by the year, and two
or three disabled soldiers, though the
whole force draw compensation to the end
of this month.

first mile Banshee crossed the score, lead

THE vrATHER-THE RACES OF TODAY
MISCELLANEOUS - To-MoRRow's
RACES.
SARATOGA, July IS.
At early dawn to-day the sky was filled
with clouds, the air was damp, and all
nature betokened speedy rain, which
would spoil all sport during the day; but
as the morning progressed the heavens
were cleared, and Old Sol shone forth in
all his Respondent glory. During the
day light breeze attempted to rival the
fierce rays of the sun, and as yet is un-
successful, the thermometer indicating
between 90 and 100 degrees.
THE RACES OF TO-DAY.
Notwithstanding the rain of Saturday
night, the track was in excellent condi-
ton this morning. The races were not of
Importance, and but fair audience as
sembled. The one which excited the
most interest was the last race, oonse-
quently the first two were hurried some
what, as the time will show.
THE FIRST RACE.
This race was dash of mile, for a
purse of $500 for all ages. There were
six entries, and all started. Pompey
Payne was the first choice in the pools
sold Immediately before the races. A
start was made at the first signal, Gen.
Duke leading across the score and through
out the first quarter the favorite being
close on his heels. In the third quarter,
Duke still leading, all the horses closed
together. On the home stretch Sanford
made brilliant effort to take the lead
and almost headed Duke, Payne being
third. They passed the judges stand in
the same order, Gen. Duke leading San
ford by one and half lengths and Payne
two lengths.

THE SECOND RACE
was selling race, the winner to be sold ;
distance one mile and half, and purse
$500. For this race eleven entries were
made, but ten started, however. In the
pools, Scathelock was still the favorite.
The horses had good start, all going off
in group. At the end of the first half
mile, the favorite was first, Edenton
second, and the remainder trailing behind
them. In the last half mile Boaster, who
was nearly the last one, made gallant
burst of speed and led all by half a
dozen lengths. On the home stretch, he
yet held ais position, the balance striving
well to close the gap. The people were
anxious that he should not win the race
80 easily and cheered loudly when st.
Patrick strobe forward and crossed the
score but length behind Boaster, Wiley
being third.

TIE BEST TIME ON RECORD.

The track being in such good condition
to-day, extraordinary time was made.
The time in the first has never been beat
en- in this country. The best heretofore
made was by Herzog, three-year old, at
Cincinnati, May 25, 1869, He then ran
two heats, the time of each being respect.
lively 1.45 and 1.43l. Gen. Duke ran a
mile in 1.454, at Cincinnati, September
26, 1867, being at that time two years Of
age, and carrying full weight. He is now
five years cid, and makes mile in 1.434
carrying fall weight.
The BEST time in two-mile race was
naade at New Orleans in 1850, by hegira,
catch weight, the time being 3.34i. The
next best is 1851, which was made by
Lancaster, at Lexington, KY, carrying
full weight, September 70, 1867. By these
it is shown that Banshee's time to-day,
1851, is the third best ever made in this
country.

We clip the following from the Detroit
Mechanic and Inventor:
~ The COOP TINE CoNE.-The patent so
long held by Wheeler & Wilson for the
four motion feed sewing machine, has at
last expired, and an extension has been
refused. The day has gone by when
machine costing but from SIS to $50 can
be sold at from $50 to Sl25. We see that
the American Shuttle Sewing Machine
Company of Detroit are first in the field
with machine embodying all the best
features Of the most costly article, and
while their machines are, in every parties
ular, as perfect in their adaptation to all
classes Of work as the Wheeler & Wilson,
Grover 4 Baker, and Singer, they are now
disposing of them at prices ranging from
$25 to $40. This is certainly an immense
reduction, and its effects are already to be
seen by the large orders received, and the

Mr.. George w. Bungay, in an article in
the Christian Union on .'Sunday School
Infections" describes, among the various
kinds of speakers that address the children,
the "terifc speaker" the man who mis-
takes noise for eloquence, and for sound
sense. ''His lungs" says Mr.. Bungay,
'.being better than his brains, he uses
them the most. No child will sleep when
he speaks. He not only keeps them
awake, but he frightens them also. Ma,
he is going to speak again; see, he's
swelling up?' said little girl to her
mother, when one Of these impulsive
speakers was shouting to an audience.
He mistakes blood-power for brain power,
and thinks that Sound and fury will scare
the lambs into the fold, or scare the wolves
from the flock. 'How did you like my

A horse thief was arrested on Satur-
dav at the Sixteen Mile House. on the
Sonora road, by Constable ID. NJ. Bige-

Treadway. The night he stole a horse
from Dayton, James Taylor, near
Woodbridge, caught the thief leaving
his stable, and brought to stands:ill
by virtue of his rifle, but finally al
lowed him to leave. In addition to
this, when caught, the thief had in his
possession a sorrel mare belonging to
Owen Il. Davis, OF Brighton, Sacra-
mento County, for which there was a
reward of $500. Mr.. Davis, learning of
the arrest and OF his horse, arrived
here to-day to secure his animal.
When questioned, the thief said he
was bound to max living!

GEN. Won STEINMETZ.-This officer,
who is now sixty-seven years old,
distinguished himself as commander
of the Silesian army corps, belonging
as he did to the army of the Crown
Prince during the Austrian war, of
1856. An eastern correspondent thus
speaks of him:
He is an old game-cock, splendid
fighter, and always goes in TO win.
These characteristics seem to cause him
not TO shrink or hesitate on other fields
than those of battle-for only the other
day, when a young lady about eigh-
teen years old az orphan daughter of
a former cOmrade of his, wrote to him
from Southern Germany for help and
relief in her distressing situation, he
packed up his traps, went to see her in
person, and after having inspected the
situation came to the conclusion that
the shortest and most effective way to
help her was simply to marry her on
the spot; and SO he did, and took her
home to his estates, transforming her
at the shortest notice from poor,
deserted girl into one of the richest
and first ladies of the land.
