There seems to be more life and stir in

though there is little business, and few
families changing their places OF resi-
dence.
On Friday morning two boys, Don
Griffin and Willie Linton, both between
twelve and fifteen years OF age, not con.
tented with the comforts and pleasures Of
good homes, and possessed with a small
amount Of currency, intimated 10 their
companions that they were going to the
Centennial. Accordingly they crossed
the river and took passage on the 0 A. NJ,

which time nothing has been heard Of
them. They will in all probability reach
their destination, but the staying there,

springing up within their hearts-thcn
there's the rub. Stay at home, boys; the

A. 7. Stewart occupies a palace and
gives a series Of Sunday dinners. Such
style has never before been seen in New
York city. The circle which Stewart
welcomes is hardly larger than a score,
and Of this only few are invited at 4
time. The idea Of the entertainment Is
that the society shall be as recherche as the
dishes, and that no more shall be there
than can form social group. II there

habits have followed him
through life, and thisis one reason OF his
remarkably vigorous age.

until he was sold to so Wcst-an0 how
the old horse, after knocking about con-
siderably, stood good preparation
which eliminated in his winning what
was called tho Thirty Thousand Dollar
Purse on the 22d Of February last,

the story Of how he"took up" Foster;
how that he believedthe old horse knew
him; with what patience and care he
watched the first work he gave the horse
fearing every stride he took would show
that he had broken down; and finally,
when lie was convinced that tile horse and
his legs were as sound as they were in
1870, he gave Foster all the work he
would stand, which finally resulted in his
his winning the "bigpurse."
In answer to the question, GLOW about

that Lakeland, who rode the race with
great judgment, evidently feared 10 push

he could have done with ease; 70 much
so, in fact, that his winning the second
heat was never in doubt, as the result
showed. Continuing and in answer to an
inquiry about the payment Of the purse,
the Captain replied that Littell was paid
partially in money and the rest in paper,
and that he (Moore) had broughtsom OF

which bred 10 stations like Foster,

the "kids," to visit Kentucky and TO pur-

youngsters he knew Of, with which he
would return to California next fall.
Captain Moore left New York for

TIE venerable Bishop whipple, whose
noble heart has been touched these many
years by the wrongs of the Indians in the
Northwest, entertains radical views in re.
gard to our Indian policy. He thinks
that there is no necessity for Indian
wars, and that the Ishmaelites Of the
West can be civilized and Christianized.
During his recent sojourn in Florida his
faith In Indian character has been
strengthened by the remarkable success
Of lew army officers and their wives in
disciplinipg and educating seventy host
ages at ST. Augustine. The simple but
touching recital which the Bishop gives
Of his parting with the prisoners, who,
as he beautifully says, had found the
trail to Heaven" is in striking contrast
TO the report Of the triumphant march Of
Gen. Crooks column.
