Our Duty.
Almost every one recognizes the fact that
"hard times" are upon US. Just how or why
they are upon us it boots us not to inquire for
the purposes of this article. But we cannot es-
cape the fact. 1t is our business 10 deal with
that. 1t will surely deal with us. In every city
and town there are large numbers of men thrown
out of employment because the establishments
that have given them work have been obliged
to close. This has been caused by the stringen-
cy in money matters and the shrinkage in val
ues. The Winter promises already to be a hard
one. Its pinching cold is now upon us. 1t
threatens to make the poorer classes feel it rather
keenly before the blossoms of Spring greet and
cheer US. Under circumstances like these there
are new duties that arise for the well-to-do.-
mo man liveth to himself or dieth to himself"
We are all dependent upon each other. We owe
duties to society that we cannot escape
We doubt not that many people who have abun-
dant means use those means more lavishly upon
themselves than necessity requires. They could
do with much less if they were actually obliged
to do it. There are many luxuries that they
could deny themselves without enduring any
suffering by the operation.
In view of the surrounding and coming cir
cumstances we conceive it to be the duty of all
classes of people to use the utmost economy in
their living. They should make determined
effort to curtail expenses as nearly as possible TO
the actual necessities of life This should be

The Turf in San Francisco.
Great Four-MiIe Heat Race for Purse Of 500, 900
in GOId-.Thad Stevens Winner-True Blue
Distanced-BettingO of Immense Sums
of MOney-Great Excitement.
The great event of the year in the sporting
world came off at San Francisco, California, on
Saturday last--the four mile heat race for
$40, 600 between Thad Stevens, Joe Daniels,
True Blue and Mamie Hall, which was won by
Thad Stevens after running sixteen miles. The
race was witnessed by an immense crowd of
people, fully twenty thousand being at the
Park.
The pool selling was commenced at noon,
and opened briskly at large figures. In the
two hours that interviewed before the horses
were called heavy sum was deposited in
banks for cashing pools, amounting to between
$40, 900 and $4,000. Thad Stevens was the ia
vorite at great odds.
The horses were called at 2 O'Clock when
they made their appearace in front of the
judges stand amid the most intense excite
| ment.
THE RACE.
The first heat Thad Stevens took the pole,
| True Blue next, Mamie Hall third and Joe
Daniels the outside. AT the start Mamie Hall
was first Thad Stevens second, True Blue third
and Joe Daniels fourth. At the second mile
| True Blue first, Mamie Hall second, Joe Dan
| iels third and Thad Stevens fourth. Third mile,
True Blue first, Joe Daniels second, Thad Ste
vens third, Mamie Hall fourth. On the fourth
mile Joe Daniels was first by two lengths, True
Blue second, Tnad Stevens third, Mamie Hall
| fourth and distanced. Time of heat, 7.45.
For the second heat another splendid start
was made, the three horses taking the score
neck-and-neck At the end of the first mile
Thad carried the score three lengths ahead,
True Blue second, and Daniels tagging FIVE
lengths. On the second mile the relative po-
sitions of the horses were about thesame, Thad
gaining few yards if anything. On the third
mile all the horses crossed the score in compa-
ny, Thad a neck ahead of True Blue, with Dan
iels tapping on the flank. On the fourth mile
Thad and True Blue pulled neck and meek,
Daniels crowding. On the last half True Blue
showed ahead and opened gap of five lengths
which he held in crossing the score and winning
the heat. Time, minutes and seconds.

SATURDAY, NOPE 22, 1878.
The Situation With Spain.
The capture Of the "Virginius' and the massa-
ere Of her crew and passengers by Spanish mob
has excited the indignation Of the masses of
American people. The facts are such as demand
a sober, deliberate and thorough investigation at
the hands of every American citizen in order that
craftsmanship, not demogogism, sound judgment
and discretion, not the wild within of passion or
prejudice may settle, determine and dictate the
conduct of the American Republic towards the
Spanish authorities.
The "Virginius" was sailing under an Ameri-
can flag, deriving its authority to traverse the
high seas from American passports. She sailed
from New York and was destined for Cuba
Damage occurring to her machinery she was
obliged to put into port in Jamaica. While
there the Spanish Consul telegraphed the Cover
nor at Santiago de Cuba that the ssVirginus"
was in Morant Bay. Gov. Burrel Immediately
despatched the Spanish man-of-war Tornado"
in search of her. The tornado" came in sight
of her next day. A chase of several hours, DUR
ing which the ''Virginius' threw overheard can
non, Remington rifles, small arms and ammunition,
seven horses, &C., resulted in the capture of the
"Virginius." She was boarded the American
flag hauled down and the Spanish flag run up in
its stead, although Captain Fry produced Ameri-
can papers duly consigning her to Colon, Cuba.
1t is claimed that she was in British waters when
taken. There were l65 persons on board. They
were ell taken prisoners. Their names reveal
