Description of the Race between
Harry BasselG and Long
feIi0w.

But little difficulty was experienced
in effecting start, aud the horses got a.
way together, Bassett having the inside
track. For the first half-mile they ran
head and head, the only advantage, if
any being in favor of Bassett. As the
horses. warming into their stride,
passed the grand stand the excitement
rose to fever pitch. The first mile and
a half found their positions unchanged
but the hackers of Bassett evidently
had misgivings, as their favorite was
doing his best, while il seemed Long
fellow was still being held in by his
rider. Their fears were confirmed
when the horses swept past the grand
stand the second time. Longfellow's
rider gave head to his horse. who gall
lantly responded, and quickly placed
two lengths between himself and Bas-
sett. urffr
The scene was indescribable. Men
threw their hats in the air and cheered
wildly. while ladies waved handker-
chiefs and bet countless pairs of gloves
on John Harper's steed. From this
moment it was evident all was up
with Bassett, and although his rider
used whip and spur without stint, it
was of no avail. Every moment Long
fellow increased his lead, and Lam
ded an easy winner in 4:34, or, as some
OF. the judges claim in 4:33. Bassett
was beaten over dozen lengths. The
enthusiasm Of the western men was
unbounded. They crowded around
John Harper, cheering and congratu
lating the old man, who also seemed
laboring under great excitement. I'm
mense sums were lost on the race by
New Workers. John MOrrissey is

following account of his expedition in

resting results: -li
"Mr. Stanley reached Unyanyembe
on the Esd of September, 1871, having
lost on the way by illness one white
man. two of the armed escort, eight
Pagagis, two horses, and twenty-seven
asses. From thence he intended adj
vancing on Ujiji, but found terrible
difficulties in the way. Mirambo,
King of Ajowa, declared that no cara
van should pass Ujiji except over his
body. The Arabs declared war and
anticipated victory. l gave assistance
the first day, and in concert with the
Arabs attacked two villages and cap
tured, killed, and drove away the in
habitants. On the second day | caught
a fever. On the third day the Arabs
were ambushed aud routed with ter
rifle slaughter. On the fou tn day
there was a general desertion of Arabs

death was certain, and frightened my
followers. Shaw deserted, but new

The following is an extract from a
private letter to gentleman in this
State. Though it was never intended
for publication, the gentleman to
whom it was addressed has deemed il
of sufficient interest and Importance
to justify its publication.
NEW YORK, June II, 1872.
: 1 have no possible claim
to Democratic support, and never
made any. The Democrats will, of
course, be governed by a considera-
ton of their own interest. 1t is no.
wise proper or probable that they
should be influenced in making their
decision by any consideration personal
to myself, and if they conld be l do not
desire it. Hence, l have said nothing
TO any Democrat, unless he first adj
dressed me, and even then have gone
no farther than to say that if | should
be elected l would treat all those who
support me alike, not asking whether
they had been in the past Republicans
or Democrats. x Yours,
