The Wonderful Race.

Longfellow beaten wins greater fame
than Longfellow victorious. When he
triumphed over Bassett at Long Branch
he only outstripped horse of marvel
lous feetness; when he Tesolutely held
on bis victorious way, and with speed
hardly lessened by pain that must have
been keenest, intolerable anguish, he
displayed a courage and degree of reso-
luteness that will give to animals a
stronger claim, than was ever before as :
serted, upon the esteem, admiration, and
even election, IF men. With regret Ne
learn that the famous horse is probably
disabled for life by an accident at the
Saratoga course. That this took place
in a race which saw two and quarter
miles accomplished in three minutes and
ffty.nine seconds-the fastest time on
record-will make the accident the more
deplorable, when, too, it is learned that
Longfellow only lost the race by a
length. One of his plates became twist"
ed in running and cut the other foot and
leg badly, but the be lrt of the horse
never weakened. He ran, the Herald
says, gamely as ever to the end, and was
led off limping and bleeding to the
stable. There seems something in this
of pluck, almost heroism, which man
arrogates entirely to himself; but two
miles and a quarter on little better than
three legs and in such time will chal'
Ienge admiration the world over. II
will be remembered that he recently
beat his successful rival Harry Bassett
at Long Branch, in two-and aNhalf-
mile race, by about one hundred and fifty
yards, in four minutes and thirty-four
/ seconds.

To the Voters of Hardsman
FeIlow-Citizens,

Having been urged by numerous
friends to announce myself a candidate
for the Legislature, l take this occasion
to soy to the public generally, that am
a candidate for the position referT ed to,
and will, in this event, as ever have
done, do my utmost to win. At this
auspicious time it is not 4miss for me TO
state, fairly and squarely, the grounds
upon which / stand, and the paramount
measures deemed uppermost in the
issue. OfmY political creed, it is USE
less to speak--you all know What it Is;
but for fear shat some one may miscon-
sirue my motives or overlook the past,
will say that i am in sympathy with
the l LIBERAL Republican cause-a cause
that advocates freedom for all, equal
taxation and State rights This much
for National affairs
As to the pending issues 10 our own
State, deem it but my duty to gener-
Gus and liberal minded people to say that
It will be my pleasure to advocate the
following measures
Immigration; .-
No tax on manufacturers;
Repeal Of taxes on merchants.
Repeal OF usury laws.
The advocacy of all means tending to
advance the agricul tural interests of our
people
Mechanics lien law.
All poll tax to so to educational pur-
posos-the whites to have what they pay
n separately and the negroes the same
thus obviating the confusion which ex
listed and still exists throughout the
State.
Modify criminal laws, propOrtioning
punishment to crime.
No convict labor 70 come in contac
with honest men.
A new State Constitution, so Us to dc
away with the bungling concern under
which all our present laws are made.
Reduction of taxes, and the funding o
the State debt, aud ali such other meas
uers which may ocme up whereby tht
PEoPLE, aud not the .te,c, may be benefit
ted.
Such, fellow citizens, are the ground
upon which take my stand, and if yOu
deem them right, you can say so,
Respectfully,

Type for Mr. Redfetd
To the Editor Of the Sun:
SIR-From 1881 to 1884 was carry
ing on the business ofstereotyping at 2l6
William street, and most of the time was
employing great many oompositors, not
a few of whom have siuce earned a large
sbarge of fame in the world. From the
days of Franklin even to those of Greeley
the composing room has graduated its full
quota of the men who have distinguished
themselves in the history Of the conntry.
Why shouldn't the institution be incor-
porated, have faculty, and the authoTi~
ty to confer degrees? Why shouldn't
it make LII d. as we'll az Old Harvard.
1t was in 1882 or 80, ! think, that
being at one time much IN need of more
compositoFs, asked those IN the Office
to let the fact be known at their respeo
tive boarding houses. Among others
who applied for work IN response to this
call was queer looking chap bTOughtin
by one of the hands in the Office. He
was of rather moro than medium height (;
his hair was almost white, his face quite
| so and entirely beardless, and lie walked
| with shufiing and uncertain gait. He
/ WIRE very old white haS and fustian
pantaloons which did not come dows to
his boots, and these completed a person
atty which had never before met with
/ in a com positor, and turning to Sey~
| mour, who brought him in, | inquired
| If that fellow was a composition. He re-
piled, Hes a queer looking fellow, but
| they say he's q good workman" Being
| too much in want Of help to be very par
ticular about the appearance of a cOm-
| positor, gave him a case and copy, and
! you may Judge of my surprise when | tel
| you that his weekly bills exceeded by
from. 80 to SO per cent those Of the Other
compositors by bis side who were on the
same work. And what was equally re-
markabIe, no matter how he picked up
the type with his fi7gers, the stream o.
! talk that rolled off his tongue was never
i Interrupted He talked ineessantly
when be made out his first bill, learn
cd that his narUc was Horace Greeley.
| In those days he was composition
and was good one He set type rapid
/ ly and made clean proof. When ht
! was young man he did his work well
and now that he is an old one, and there
is big take" ahead to give out, l pro-
pose that we give it to him.

Crop Prospects.

We learn from the Grenada Sentinel
that crop prospects in that locality are
excellent.
But who can foresee the ealamities
that may yet befall them2 We love to
see the farmer jubilant, yet we are per~
suaded to believe it is our duty to inter-
pose a word of caution. The outlook at
present is fattering, yet we hear from
many localities wherein the corn crop
has been seriously affected by drouth.
We also hear of localit es where rains
have been too iBcessaut. for the eottnn
plant-causing it to run too much to weed,
and forming iHdiEerently. Thus We sac,
ut this period of the eason, reports con-
aicting, and while some have their hopes
strung to the highest chord, others have
their ardor dampened by too much rain
or too much droutb. In the midst of this
uncertainty over the harvest, and we may
say the general crop. it behooves planter
and merchant to be cautious. We see
that our agricultural eotempoary, the
Field and Factory, from his State look
out advises caution, and thinks, as we do
that Northern papers In the interest Of
spectators, are preparing the way for a
general gouging Of the cotton planter
/ The report of the COMMISSIONER Of Agri-
culture for the month, of June represents
4 the acreage in eottoR- for 1872, for the
cotton States, to be ID rer cent less thar

orinion and belief that the cotton croI
Of 1872 will vary but little from that o
1871 False estimates may be gotten up
