circumstances, which befel two of our old res j.

Surprise Parties. 90 so far
as to say that surprise parties are nuisance
and disgrace to civilization. We are
hardly prepared 10 take this advanced posi-
ton against surprise parties, having always
considered that these amusements have
many points in their favor. The old simon
pure surprise party, is said to be a relic of
the middle ages conducted on somewhat
different plan from the ores in vogue at the
present day But the latest style for getting
up surprise parties. is to write an anony-
nous letter, to some resident, stating that
surprise party will be with him on ce1-
tain evening He prepares for it, nobody
comes, and the surprise is complete.

The Races.

The Ruces.-The race course on the
time for the sporting fraternity Of the city,
Friday afternoon last The main feature
of the occasion was the three mile heats be-
tween the favorite pacing nags of DR.. Bar
Der and Mr.. VIM. E Jones The track was
not in very excellent condition, and the
horses balled up considerably But not
withstanding these drawbacks good time
was made by both mares Mr.. Jones'
horse led in every heat. and was pronoun
ced the winner. The res nit, however. in
su-es more racing between these two horses,
the Doctor being confident that his nag will
yet demonstrate to the satisfaction of ev cry
body that she is possessed of the fastest
time as well as the most endurance
Mr.. E. R. Evans entered his horse Cub
against Mr.. E. Racks cream horse, and a
lively scrub race took place between the
two, resulting in the total defeat of the
former.
This forcibly demonstrated the mighty
uncertainty of orse racing, for, from the
previous record of this same Cub, on the
same course, we had gone prepared to bet
our bottom dollar on his general ability
to clean out all contestants But happily
we saved our dollar by not havin4 any to
bet with when we reached the course.
On Sa turday, we understand, there were
other contests for speed on the course. but
we have not learned who came out behind
or before.

Fraudulent MISREPRESENTATION.

Among the perniciOus frauds of the period,
there is one which especially deserves the repre-
hension Of all who place proper value on health
and life. The swinde referred to consists in the
attempts of irresponsible parties in different sec
tons of the United States, to force upon the
market vile astringent compounds manufactured
out of damaged or worthless drugs and refuse
liquor, as preparations possessing the rare medi-
cinal virtues Of the most popular and eficacious
of all vegetable tonics and observation-disclosures
ter's Stomach Bitters.
The cOnCccters of these "IocaI bitters" are, in
the truest sense Of the phrase, public enemies
Their fiery pOtiOnS inhame the stomachs, stupefy
the brains, and shatter the nerves Of those who
are unwise enough TO accept them as substitutes
for the famous Vegetable InvigOTant, that for
twenty years has been known throughout the
Western Hemisphere rs a standard article.
The fame OF HOststter's Bitters as a health
preserving, yitaizng medicine, is as wide as the
world, and the miserable attempts of needy nos
uum- mOngeIS to supplant it would be treated
with silent contempt, were it not that serious
consequences sometimes follows the use Of the
nefaTiOus compounds in question. Whoever
recommends any of them as remedies for Dys-
pepsa, BliOusness, Constipation, Intermittent
Fever, rheumatism, or any other complaint for
which HOStetter'S Bitters IL a known specific, is
guilty of a moral, if not legal misdemeanor.
At this season, when the sun is releasing from
the earth, in the form of unwhOlesOme yapors,
the active principle of disease, a course of Hos
letters Bitters will be of the utmost service TO
persons with feeble constitutions.

TRAINING ERRSES

Mr.. James Melville, the gymnast and
bareback hurdle rider, has a happy faculty
of subduing a wild horse without resorting
to the cruel means adopted by professional
horSe-tamers. By the power of his eve and
voice he will subdue and tame the widest
and most untutOred animal in a very short
space of time, and at once use him for a
bareback hurdle act. Mr.. Melville states
that throwing the horse and using the cord,
first introduced to the public by Rarey,
have been known to his profession for years,
and is not, as many persons well informed
in horse matters suppose, a comparatively
new way Of subduing vicious animal. Mr.
Melville also thinks that raCe-hOrses often
lose races when they have plenty of speed
to win by running false"-that is, by
"shifting" from one way of running to
another. This is something, he says, that
trainers do not seem to take any notice of
when giving a horse his grand preparation;
but if a circus horse were to s'run false" in
the ring he would throw the performer on
his back out Of time, Great attention is
consequently given to learn a ring horse to
run steadily in one way without shifting
during the performance of the act he is ell
gagged in. Learning a race-horse to run
without shifting, Mr., Melville thinks, would
be Of as much benefit to him as to the cir
Gus horse. The experiment is worth the
trial.
