Train after train came up and de-.
posited its eager freight at the gateway.
The throngs came pouring in and the
immense multitude within swelled into
an ocean of heads. The stands were
Overlooking before one o'clock,
and then the crowd poured on the quar-
ter stretch and lined the fence on both
sides in huge black lines twenty feet
deep. The windmill and water tank
by the hotel swermed with humanity,
and every elevated spot within 100 feet
eff the Judges stand had as many occu-
pants as could find foothold. The
upper story OF the hotel, with its ball
COW, was reserved for members OF the
press, their lady friends, and as many
other invited guests as the managers
chose to admit there This was by tar
the best place from which to view the
race, and OF course there was scram-
BILE for a place there. Many were ad,
mitted, but still the balcony was not in
conveniently crowded, and splendid
view was therefore obtained.

The LUNAT1c AsYLUM-Dr. Ensor pub
fishes the following as the result Of his Charles
ton trip:
"I have been in Charleston two days trying
to raise money for the Asylum. have met
with a great deal of sympathy, and several
gentlemen have made an earnest and sincere
effort in our behalf, but as yet, have failed to
obtain any money-the difficulty being the
want of confidence in State securities, the only
kind can command as collateral. The banks
have the money and are ready to lend it, but
don't like the securities. The sympathies Of
the people of Charleston are so thoroughly
awakened that have reason to believe that l
could raise $4,000 by subscription in few
days here; that plan having been suggested,
and number of subscriptions offered. But
while I appreciate the kindly motive that
prompts this offer on the part of the citizens of
Charleston, I could not accept any funds raised
in this way. The institution has assets amply
sufficient to pay all its debts, and will apply
them to that end as soon as they are available.
Besides, it would be an imposition on the peo-
pie to ask them to support the Asylum by pri-
vvate contributions, when they have paid their
taxes for that purpose"

SOMETHING FOR LETTER WRITERs-DoU-
BILE PosrAaE.-The continual changes in the
postal laws of the country require persons to
keep continually on the qui vipe, or elae run
the risk of having their correspondence quietly
dumped into the dead letter office.
Under the old law the rate of postage for
mail matter was three cents per half ounce for
letters, and the regulation provided that in
case the requisite number Of stamps to ,Fsy pay the the
postmaster at the place of destination was re-
quired to collect the remainder. For instance,
if a letter which weighed one ounce only had isi
q three cent stamp attached, it went on to its
destination and the remaining three cents due
upon it was collected there. The law in this
respect has been materially changed: Under
decision of the Post Office authorities, post
masters are required to collect double the
amount which remains unpaid. Double post
age is also of course to be collected on 'DhoIty
unpaid matter which may by chance reach the
Office of destination. Letter writer's and busl-
ness men will avoid much confusion in future
by bearing in mind the new law on the subject
