~ THIS IiIGHLY-BRED TR0TTING
OSA STALLION Will stand for mares the
49, coming season al the Stables of Ali
son Ndilo-, Jr., Washington, D. G., and at
Rockville, Md. every alternate eek, com
mencng at the latter place on the lst of April
and ending lst Of July, at Twenty-Five (S25)
Dollars the season, payable in advance.
RICHMOND is a beautiful Gappe gray
stands full l6 hands high: is . years old this
Spring; is powerfully and symmetrically
formed, with immense bone and fine trotting
action. His temper is excellent. He has never
been trained but trotted double with his
mate, when only four years old at Rockville
Fair, in $50 and PAS, and to single harness
in 2:403.
PEnlGnEE Richmond was bred by the
late A. j. Alexander, OF Kentucky, by Pilot,
Jr., dam Matte, by Mambrino Chief; % dam
by SCOTS Highlander Sd dana by Copper
bottom 4th dam by Old Tiger; oh dam by
Imported Buzzard.
Pilot Jr., was the sire of the following cele-
brated trotters, namely: John Morgan, Tackey
Chicago Pilot Temple, winner OF over $40
600 last wear, Bayard, Roscoe, Dixie, Queen
Ct the West and Taltler The latter trotted
in &c as a five year old, and is now standing
for mares at Trenton, New Jersey, al 500 the
season.
Mnmbrno Chief-sire Of Richmond's dam,
was also sire of Lady Thorne, Bay Chief,
Ericsson, Mambrino Patchen, Brignola, Ken
lucky CHEZ, Ashland, Idol, Mambrino Pilot,
and many others that cannot be named here.
The latter is owned by c. P. Relf Esq, Nor
ristown, Pa, and is making the season at
Sl0O lie and Richmond are brothers in
blood both on the side of sire, aud dam Rich
mond being by Pilot Jr., his dam by Mann
brine Chief, Mambrino Pilot was by Mann
brine Chief, and his dam by Pilot, Jr.
Ii will be seen that Richmond inherits not
only the blood of the best trotting strains in
the country, but this is united with that of
the sToUTEsT thorough-breds 1t is therefore
| reasonable 10 infer that he cannot fail to be-
come the progenitor of frst-eiass stock. He
has proved himself sure foal-getter.

Occasionally, in this selfish world spark
of pure humanity flashes up just to show that
the bright record is not altogether lost. On
the Inflated Atlantic in the darkest hour and
under most terrible circumstances, two Swedes
names unknown-when it became certain that
their families could not be saved, refused to
save themselves and chose rather to die with
their wives and children. The record is as
bright as il is sad

The Inflated ATLANTIC The heart-rend-

steamer Atlantic by striking against rock on

ed the indignation of the civilized world. The
vessel seems 10 have been built for speed and
at the time of leaving Liverpool for New York

owing it is said, to the cupidity of the own
ers, who, 10 save a few bushels Of coal, started
on their voyage with an insufficient supply -
An investigation is now being held inquring
INTO the cause of the disaster, the captain be-
ing severely blamed, for ignorance of the coast
and want of attention 10 the management of
the vessel. The details of the catastrophe are
hear-rending-he women and children
in the agony of despair and death, imploring
help. and no human arm 10 help or eye to pity
In all our long career rs a journalist, we have
never recorded n disaster more appalling. and
we trust in God we never may again. The
heart sckens at the recital The dead feel not
now their suffering, and lifelong the survi-
vors will be terror-siricken at the remembrance
OF that awful night on the coast.
AS the investigation progresses more evil
dence is developed of the cupidity of the own

10 give our Radical cousins some anxiety, and
causes them again to discuss the chances OF its
probable dissolution and death Upon this

These outsiders who rant for a dissolution
Of the Democratic organization, would soon
learn, If they could get access 10 a Democratic
audience, that The rarty was never less inclin-
I'd TO adopt or tolerate their notions. There is
general conEiction that last years campaign
was an egregious blunder. Instead OF being
prepared 10 go further in the same direction,
the party recoils from eycry experiment Of a
similar kind. That ill-s;srred experiment never
had anything TO recommend &c but an imp0-
tient hope Of success. The party will not again
foolishly burn its fingers BY Puitiug them into
the same fire. He mast be verdaut politi-
elan, indeed, who thinks this a promising
time TO convince the Democracy that they
have anything TO gain by piowug with

spite Of good management aud strict party
fidelity this kind Of appeal would seem more
specious. We say to the quacks: We have

It's useless for the Radical press 10 he pro-
nouncing funeral dirges-when the time comes
10 sound the bugle-call The grand old party
will promptly fall into line. 1t is only neces-
sary 10 put forward good men-men in whom

is nnstained with vacillalion, but who have
followed the fortunes of the party through

who stand for principle. These are the men
the people want and around whom democrats
