AMERICAN vs. ENGLISH BOYs.-At
Brighton, in Sussex, England, beau
tiful gold cupis annually presented as
prize to the winner of foot race which
is open to the schools of that place
The race is over coarse one hundred
yards in length, and creates great inter-
est in the city, large crowds assembling
every year to witness the contest. This
year it was made more than usually in
teresting by the offer of cup valued at
$3.50. in gold to the winner of a course
two hundred and fifty yards long, by Mr..
James Ashbury, of yachting notoriety,
who lives at Brighton. These two races
came off last fall but unfortunately for
English pride, in two of the schools are
two little boys born on this side of the
Atlantic Yankees, they call them
Willie and Harry Romans, grandchiI-
dren of the late Hon. William Parmlee.
of Albany, whose father is residing in
England for business purposes. Twenty
schools were represented in the race and
twenty-seven boys started in the race
of one hundred yards, which was won by
the Yankee" Willie Romans; his
brother Harry second, beating all the
English competitors. This was severe
modification to the papas and mammals
of the other boys, but they consoled
themselves with the reflection "that it
was short race, and no test of endur-
ance," hoping different result in the
long race of two hundred and fifty yards
which followed in few hours afterward.
In this race, forty-two English boys
started against the two Yankee brothers,
but again the Stars and Stripes were tri-
umphant, only this time Henry led and
Willie was second, with the forty-two
English boys strung out in long line
behind them. Imagine Mr.. Ashbury's
'phelinks" at the idea of his cup being
won by an American boy.

Is THE CoURrs,-Before Justice Fleurv
 the case ofC A. Luke ys. Chas w. Beach, Tor the recovery of the sum of one hundred and sixty dollars, the amount of forged check in the name of Lieut. W. J. Ross, field quartermasler, on the staff of General Crook, and alleged having been given to plaintiff by defendant, in business transaction, and which case has been on adjournment since April last, to permit Mr. Luke, as Commis- sioner for the Territory, to attend the Vienna Exposition, was called for hearing on Satur- day last, the 25th. The plaintiff, through some misunderstanding, failed to appear, and, upon motion, the case was dismissed and judgment entered in favor of the defendant for costs We learn that the suit has since been reinstituted before Justice Otis. The check alluded to had, undoubtedly, passed through many hands before it came to either of these parties, and if Mr. Beach ever pos- sesscd 1t there can be no doubt but that he came by it honorably, as did also Mr. Luke, who only ascertained its fasity by having it refused at the sub-treasury. The quarter masters' checks circulate as readily through out the Territory as any other currency, and we would again advise those who have occa- sion to use or receive them, to study the sig natures of the government disbursing officers that they, themselves, may not be inconyen- fenced, or innocent parties injured.
 In the Probate Court, on the 2Sth, in the matter of the estate of George Thrasher, deceased, letters of administration were granted to Philip Mcdonald, who was direct ed to give notice to the creditors of the de- ceased, as will appear by reference to the thew advertisements" in another column.
 In the matter of the estate of Richard Gel lers, deceased there being no claimants to the effects, the articles have been deposited with the county treasurer who is, by law, required to dispose of them at public sale. See notice of sale in another column

STOKES TRIAL.-The telegraph brings us the particulars of the trial of Stokes, for the murder of Jim Fisk, as fast as the case pro- gresses. The whole thing is now thoroughly cut and dried One witness testities that Fisk threatened the life of Stokes, that be carried pistol, and that the information was duly conveyed to Stokes; another testifies tbat he saw him with pistol on the day of his death another, an old lady, heard him say he "would kill Stokes as sure as his name was Jim Fisk"; another saw him fire his pis- tol at Stokes, and physicians are actually swearing to their belief that Fisk died at the hands of brother physicians, and not from the wounds. It is quite evident that they have ''been sure Of their evidence" this time, and reasonable to presume that the next report will bring us the news of his acquittal.
