A California FIy-Away--The Fastest
Trotter in the World--A 2:l5 Horse.

The San Francisco Reporter says: I:
The chances are that the celebrated
horse Dexter will have to take a
back scat before long. Yesterday
at the park the mysterious Stanford
horse" was driven around the track
in 4 sulky by "Yank1 Smith, who
has the animal in his charge. The
first half mile was trotted over at a
moderate rate Of speed, but on the
last half mile Smith let him out,
and he crossed the score in l :O7.
Keeping right on, at q slower trot,
till the last half mile was reached,
the wonderful horse was urged to
his speed, and made the last half
mile in :071. His time was noted
by several reliable and experienced
parties, among whom may he men
toned Charley Shear and George
Gilbert; Leland Stanford.the owner
of the horse,was also on the ground.
There is no doubt about this time
having been made and it is the fast
est time on record. A well known
sporting gentleman who saw the
trial, offered to wager 81 900 that
he could take the horse for week
and drive him a mile in 2:I5- The
horse has a handsome romantic his
tory. and, like many bipeds in this
country, his elevation from hard
work and obscurity to tame and
ease has been rapid and remarkable.
Not many months ago he did service
in butchers cart in this city, and
was sold for the paltry sum of $3.50.
Stanford paid $4,000 for him, and
could probably get 500, 900 now for
his bargain. Thc pedigree OF the
horse is in dispute, but those who
have the best reason to know state
that he is u st. Clair.

INVESTIGATION.

The investigation of the official
returns in the City Of Hartfo rd
Connecticut, shows most clearly the
presence Of frauds in the interest OF
the Democratic party. While the
official returns showed $40 votes TO
have been cast for Jewell for Gov
ernor, there were only 479 ballots
in the box. Yet 500 Republicans
testified to having voted for Jewell.
This shows double fraud to have
been practiced.

A Visit to the Former Home of Jeff.
Davis-Reception by the Owner, a
Former Bondsman.

4 private letter from gentleman
in Vicksburg TO a friend in Chicago
gives the following interesting ac-
count of visit made by the former,
in company with Jefferson Davis,
to the plantation formerly owned by
the late Joseph f. Davis, brother of
jeff, in Mississippi: ave left at
night on the. r. +. Lee, one of our
finest steamers, and landed at the
Hurricane plantation and another
known as Blairfeld, occupied
before the war by Joseph f. Davis
and his brother, President Davis.
They were sold by Mr.. Joseph E.
Davis, who owned them both, to his
favorite freedman, Ben. Montgom-
cry, for $500, 900, payable at the end
of ten years (lst of January, 1876, I,
interest at six per cent. payable
annually. Ben. who is very black,
but thoroughly educated before the
war, met us and gave us breakfast,
waiting On the table himself. but
not offering to take q seat. After
breakfast we had carriage and
rode over the magnificent estate,
the extent of which you can form
some idea of when l tell you that
Ben Montgomery made last year
$500 bales of cotton and large
quantity of corn. We dined at
Blairiield, the former residence of
Mr.. Jefferson Davis, and now occu-
pied as rsidence BY the aforesaid
Ben, and you will not be surprised
to learn that the former slaves of
Mr.. Davis greeted him with all the
warmth of affection that they were
feapaMe Of expressing. mfr. Davis
met them c6fdiatlt and encouraged
them by many kind words. After
dinner. at which our wealthy host
again waited on US in excellent style,
we passed on to a very large and val
uablc plantation which had been
purchased by Ben Montgomery and
added to the Davis estate, and
which will add to his crop this year
probably 1000 bales more, making
300 in all, if it is a good crop year"

President Judge.

Mr. Editor, Sir--In your issue of the
18th inst, with reference to the President
Judgship of this district, you ask why is
there no candidate offered by Perry county.
The reason is obvious. There is we'll
known principle of law, called "title by
prescription" which may be thus stated /:
Where persons or community have exer-
cised, and claimed to exercise q right for
great length of time, formerly sixty years.
"Whereof the memory of man runneth
not to the contrary" the right cannot be
successfully resisted. Now, ever since the
organization of Perry county, fifty-one
years ago, the President judge has come
from Carlisle, and even for twenty years
before, making in all SeUenty-one years
whereby it is clear that Carlisle is entitled
to the judgeship by prescription-and no
man can be lawfully chosen from any 9TH
er part of the district. Besides it is doubt
full whether any legal mind could be educa-
ted up to the judicial standard elsewhere,
for the location, air, and surroundings of
that place are highly favorable to the
growth of jurisprudence and as no one
could succeed to the Aaronic Priesthood, ,ex-
cept he came of the tribe of Levi so none
can reach this judgeship unless from Car
Isle. Herod inquired Of the wise men
where Christ should be born, and they
said in Bethlehem of Judea. So when the
quiet voter inquiries of you whence say the
law and the prophets (profits) the judge of
the ninth judicial district shall come, you
may safely reply, "From Carlisle of Cum
berland." Yours, conditionally,
JIM HEFFLEFINGER,
who is studying law, but feels doubtful of
the place; may remove to Carlisle.

Eshcol, Perry Co., Pa. July 10th 1871.
q Ed. "Times; THE Postmaster Cen
eral has appointed John d. Baker, Post
Master of Roseburg p. o., changing tho
name and the site to Eshcol, Perry Co., Pa, J
The name is from the Valley or Brook Of
Eshcol in the land of Canaan.
Eshcol, is situated about three miles east
of Ickesburg, in a little dell, through which
passes a sparkling brook, inhabited by
speckled trout its banks festooned by a
rich drapery of grapevines, which suggests
the name,--the book of the cluster of
grapes, or Eshcol. The use of name is
to distinguish that which is named, from
other things. The less resemblance name
has to another, the better is it adapted to
its use. 1t will be seen by inspecting the
list of post offices in the U. s., that many
names are very similar. There are
"burgs" and "towns"- ns"-innumerable and
-"dells" and "dales'-without limit. A
long list of names begin with coax" "
another with "Chestnut'' &c. &c. Eshcol
is like itself, and stands alone in the world
unless "Ain Eshkale," two miles north
of Hebron, in the Holy Land is an excep-
ton. w. L. B.
