Wednesday last was very brilli-
ant day at Pimlico, the great race be-
tweet Ten Brock and Tom Ochiltree
being the chief attraction and bring
ing together an immense concourse
of people such as is seldom seen at an
American race course. That the
match ended differently than was
expected, and that many were disap-
pointed, is only an illustration of the
old maxim, that "the best laid
schemes of mice and men gang aft
aglee." Instead of Ten Brock or
Tom Ochiltree proving the champion
the little gelding Parole was the
winner. his jockey afterwards receiv-
ing a most demonstrative ovation.

DIR. G.. Ellis Porter, of Homecoming,

DIR. G. Ellis Porter, of Homecoming,
Allegany county, should receive the
support of the voters of Garrett coun-
ty, without regard to party. He is
an honest, upright man, and if elect
ed would distribute the large school
fund now held by the present Comp
troller for purposes of speculation.
His opponent is Ring man, and
therefore should not receive vote in
this county.
Mr.. B. Welaey, Garrett county's
next Senator, is the right man in the
right place. Such men will make
the Democratic Ring managers sick
the coming session.
The people of Garrett county
should vote for Messrs. Wilson and
Blocher. There is no ring about
them.
The Republican nominees for Conn
missioners are so much better quail
fed for the Office than those on the
other side, that there can be no doubt
of their election by handsome major
tiles.
Our candidate for Sheriff, Mr..
Thomas Coddington, is one of the
most popular men in the county, and
one who understands the require
ments of the Office by experience.
Mr.. John Harmed is so far superior
to his opponent, in every particular,
that his election was assured as soon
as he was nominated.

seas have brought loss or hardship to
merchants or mariners, and clouded
the happiness of THE community with
sympathetic sorrow. In all that
concerns our strength and peace and
greatness as d nation; in all that
touches the permanence and security
of our Government and the beneti-
cent institutions on which it rests; in
all that affects the character and dis
positions of our people, and tests our
capacity to enjoy and uphold the
equal and free condition of society
now permanent and universal
throughout the land, the experience
of the last year is conspicuously
marked by the protecting Provi-
dence Of God, and is full of promise
and hope for the coming generations.
Under a sense of these infinite
obligations to the great Ruler of
times and seasons and events, let us
humbly ascribe it to our own faults
and frailties if in any degree that
perfect concord and happiness, peace
and justice, which such great mercies
should diffuse through the hearts and
lives of our people do not altogether
and always and everywhere prevail.
Lut us with one spirit and with one
voice lift up praise and thanksgiving
to God for His manifold goodness to
our land-His manifest care for our
nation.
Now, therefore, / Rutherford B.
Hayes, President of the United
States, do appoint Thursday, the Goth
day of November next, as day OF
National Thanksgiving and Prayer,
and L earnestly recommend that,
Withdrawing themselves from secular
cares and labors, the people Of the
United States do meet together on
that day in their respective places OF
workship, there to give thanks and
praise to Almighty God for his
mercies, and to deyoutly beseech
their continuance.
In witness whereof | have here

THE FEES OF EXAMINERS IN CHAN
Gerry.

Yesterday there was proceeding before
Justice Wylie, information of which will be of
interest to all examiners in chanccry of the
Supreme Court of this District and to many of
our readers. The case of Lafayette VS.. Lafay-
cite had been referred to Mr.. Examiner Man
drvilc to take the testimony. When the cX-
animation of witnesses first began, and Mr..
MandoyIlle asked the plaintiff for some money
on account of examiners fees, his counsel said
TO Mr.. Vaudeville that he (the cOunscll would
pay the costs of the testimony when the ex-
animation was concluded. Soon afterwards
the examiner notified the counsel that he
would give another person an order on him
for the amount of fees which the counsel in.
dorsed I'VE accept this and will pay such
costs Us may bo justly due to Mr.. Vaudeville
by our cliont when case is terminated and we
have been able to collect said amount, If any,
from our client"
Upon resuming the examination yesterday
the examiner declined to take any more tcsti.
mOny until the payment of his accrued costs
was secured. The counsel did not respond h
the satisfaction Of the examiner, aud he ap.
piled to Judge Wylie for the appointment of a
new examiner. He was understood to dis,
claim that he was in any way responsible foI
the examiners costs, hut the examiner has
certified and the plaintiff has made affidavit
to the contrary.
The Judge then asked how far the examina.
ton had progressed, and what was the exam,
