GOLDSMITH MAID.-BosToN, Sept.
AT the second days races at Mys-
tic Park to-day special pursue of ST..
500 was offered to Goldsmith Maid to
beat her own record of 2:14a, she to
have three trials. The Maid appeared
between the heats in 2:193, going easi-
ly all the way round, accompanied by
runner attached to a buggy and
driven by James Golden. The second
trial was made under the most favorable
auspices. The track had been scraped
close in to the pole. There was alb
solutely no wind. Budd nodded for
the word the first time he came down.
The Maid trotted the first quarter in
334 seconds, and the halt mile in l:O64
lifting her head once just before she
reached there. The last half mile was
trotted without the least show of a
break, and she made her best recorded
time, 2:l4, amid the cheers of the as
sembled thousands.

The Anchor Line.

Among the many lines of ocean steamships
which present themselves for public patron
age, none certainly occupy a more enviable
position. or stand on a more solid or substan-
tial basis, than the Anchor Line Year
by year since its establishment, it has made
its mark, and fought its way into popular
favor, and for this confidence. it is indebted
the staunchness and safety of its vessels
the urbanity, faithfufiess, and seamanship of
its Officers-the attention and kindness Of its
subordinates and the quality of the food
presented to its patrons. As an evidence that
their advantages have been appreciated BY
the travelling public, we may state that the
Company intend on and after the first Of
April, to run a tri-weekly line-saihng on
Tuesday and Thursday OF each week. thus
affording advantages to the English or Cont
mental emigrant presented by no other line.
The increasing patronage has necessitated
an immense addition to its already extensive
list of steamers. As an evidence that it is
alive to the growing requirements Of the age,
we may state there are ten tirst-class ocean
vessels now on the stocks, and will, before
long, be added to the feet, which already
comprise the following magnificent list
Alsatia, Acadia, Alexandria, Anglia, Assy-
ria, Australia, Bolivia, California, Columbia,
Caledonia, Castalia, Elysia, Europa, Geneva,
Ethiopia, India, Italia, Macedonia, Messina,
Napoh, Olympia, Roma, Scandinavia, Scotia,
Sidonian, Trinacria, Trojan, Tyrian, Utopia,
Valetta, Venczia, Victoria, etc, etc, etc.

aud the producers would only be compelled
to support them as long as this scrip lasted
those who labor would be no worse off than
they are now, and ultimately there would
be an end Of their slavery, which cannot
be the case If this land il nationalized by
interest bearing bonds but, Oh the contra
ry, the condition of the working classes
would-as is the case now-be constantly
growing worse and worse.
But can the interest ON money be abol-
ished 1t could if the objections came
only from those who profited BY it but,
unfortunately, portion of that class whom
interest makes slaves, are Also eager to be-
come money! lenders. They are not aware
that every dollar that they put at interest
is often club i'll the hands Of their enc
mics to b 'eak their own heads. The best
possible use that the working classes can
make Of their savings is to invest them in
CO operative enterprises but even these
confer exceptional benefits, and when they
come to be universal, they will no longer
afford any relief; for, under our present
system, the great mass Of the working
classes will always be reduced to a bare
substance, and by cheapening the mode
Of living, they may benefit individuals
now. but the ultimate effect will be only to
add to the profits of the capitalists. This
they plainly foresee. or they would not
view with SO much complaisance the perils
that beset the middlemen these are the
strong allies Of the capitalists, although
the working classes are their patrons, and
the loss Of occupation with which they are
threatened they richly deserve.
Shall the working classes cease then to
cooperative enterprises by no
means. Destroy the occupation of the
and array them on the side of
labor, and the preponderance II the work
ing classes is no longer doubtful.

day afternoon at saloon on West Madison

had been an anti-temPerance crusader during

to go home, but not watching his steps, he
suddenly went off the sidewalk into the street,
fall of about three feet, and the jolt disar-
ranged his dental apparatus, breaking it into
pieces, which crowded his windpipe in a most
trying manner. Half strangled. he was car
ried by some bystanders to the Station house,
where, with the aid Of large corkscrew, the
teeth were extracted. except two molars and
a chunk Of indla-rubber palate, which the
unfortunate man swallowed One good effect
