The report states that the number OF
places where liquor is sold in Boston is
less by several hundreds than on the 3lst
! Of December, 1874.
Such is the effect OF license in Boston.
In this city the effect of prohibition has
been to increase the number Of arrests for
drunkenness for the same four months
mentioned above this year by at least 80
per cent over the number tor the same
months last year, when practical license
| prevailed. But then the liquor traffic

| This matter Of horse trottino at fairs is
very uncertain. The Dubuque Herald tells
how horse that nobody knew was snug
gled into the races in that city, and what
he did 1t says
At the Dubuque fair, a sleepy, poor,
homcly horse called Lothian was entered
in every race. He began by taking the
the 3 10 race, then 3 minute, 2 80, , 40,
| and won two heats of the 2 :35 race when
| a protest was entered that he had 4 better
record than the race he was trotting in
and challenged proof. The Judges called
| him up to the stand and swore him About
this time he had got his wrath up and
| sworc he would show them trick worth
| looking at In the third heat he let the
sleepy horse out and distanced the whole
field easily; cutting all others out of the
chance on "a Sd and 4th money The swear
ing Of the army in Flanders wasnothing to
be compared to those horsemen who were
looped. The air got so hot that Lothian
and his driver lit out in the night with
several thousand dollars pulled from the
greenies who played with him. During
| the selling of pools, the owner bought the
field s. against 50, and in the end scoop
ed the whole business.
The query is, ''Who is Lothair, and
where did he come trom.' Nobody knows
further than the owner said he came from
| Canada. At all events he cut the eye
teeth of the sharpest horsemen in the state
and did it so handsomely that they did not
discover it until he got their money and
was gone. II was the most laughable
scene THAT was ever witnessed to see the
old horscmcn and sharpers scratching their
heads and counting their losses by that
''d--n mule" Lothian.
Perhaps time will reveal Lothairs idcn-
| tity. We are convinced that he can trot
way down close to 20 if pressed. But sure
ly he is the most ungainly looking beast
we ever saw to be a gamester and fast
stopper. When standing on the track he
| look ed more like a mule than a horse, and
while trotting his tongue hung out of his
mouth two OF three inches He was bow
| backed and cut under behind, until arous-
ed, then he Strengthened out like yarn
string and slipped over the track like
creased lightning.

One of the suddest incidents con-

freshets in Indiana was the drown
ing of an entire household, consist

Mrs. Fritz and four children They
lived ten miles south of Bowling
Green, aud one day during The flood
were seen in the top story of their
house going down with the 7sIream
when at it's fullest Roadway. 1t was
impossible to reach them No doubt,
says an Indiana paper which reports
the above circumstance, many more
would have been drowned had it
not been for the energy of Mr. JAS.
Black, of Bowling Green, who put
men to making boats from lumber
Oh his own place. In very short
time boats and RATS were construct
ed, and the citizens started to rem
der what assistance they could to
those lingering in the bottoms, and
a great many were thus saved. In
many places people were clinging
I'd trees. on top of houses, and in
every place where they could get
away from the water.

WASHINGTON, August IA The
following dispatch regarding the
North Carolina election was re-
Hceiyed from Hon. Thos. B. KeOgh,
Chairman of the State Central Com
mIttee, by the National Republican
of this city last night: We have a
clear majority in the Convention,
with two counties given to the Dem
Gratis by the county commissioners.
Tie Convention will give us at least
seven majority. The Associated
Press dispatches are false, and are
sent to endeavOr to check the effect
of our great Republ lean victory.
We have carried the State on the
popular vote by fully eighteen thou
sand. The defeat and decentralization
of the Democratic party of this
State is complete. Their leading men
acknowledge it. The vote this year
was larger than ever before. You
cannot rely on the Associated Press
dispatches from this State in p0liti-
cal matters. They are made by ed
itors of Democratic newspapers who
are doing what they can to prevent
Northern people from learning and
believing that aIarge majority Of the
people OF this State are Republican
to the core and true to the Union.
North Carolina is sure for the Re-
publican President and Vice Presi-
dent in 1876 by 1900 majority.
