Young Hambletonian. who was sold for Sl6,-

the greatest trotting sire known; his dam a

it will be seen that PRINCE HAMBLET0N
combines in choice style the running with
tie trotting elements. He is a beautiful

100 pounds, and for beauty, style, and 90

country. Though never specially trained for
the track, yet he made, last fall, over New

The number of sires per horses trotting in

per cent. of these sired more than one per-
former. OF all who sired more than one,

who sired more than three all are Hamble-

TIE day of colored representatives 10
Congress is mum bered. 1t has been a mat
ter of very general remark that there are
but three colored members in the present
House-Caip, Rainey, and Smalls, OF South
Carolina, all of whose seats are contested
by white men. In the last House there
were seven colored members, and in the
Congress before that, more. 1t is the gen.
eral impression that hereafter unless col
ored members are elected by the Northern
States none will! ever again be eeen in
Congress. AS the three in the present
Congress have only been admitted on prima
facia casep, on certificates manipulated by
the notorious Chamberlain and Cardozs,
cooked up by the fraudulent returning
board of South Carolina, it would not be-
at all strange that the House Elections
Committee, after q confederation OF their
cases, should give their seHts 70 the con.
testants in each instance. The colored
Congressman has been q very decided fail
ure. Elliott of South Carolina was the
most prominent one that ever held seat.
Eis speecbes were remarkably good, aud
it was generally believed that they were
prepared for him by Ben. Butler. Smalis,
who now represents South Carolina con-
stituency, has just emerged from jail, where
he was confined for frauds ia that State.
If the juries of that State do their duty
they will have him in the penits ntiary be
fore long. Southern States will not elect
any more colored CougresemeD, as even the
negroes are opposed to them.

EFFECTS OF TIMBER wAsTE.-Col Playfair,
British Consul General for Algiers, has sent to
his government a report which offers some
striking instances of the injury done to q coun-
try by the reckless destruction of forests. He
states that the principal cause of the decadence
of the entire region of Tunis and Algiers and
the exhaustion Of the coil is directly owing to
tree telling. Meteorological observations havc
the first twelve years Of the intervening period
the rainfall averaged 80 inches annually, dur
ing the second twelve years it had decreased
to 80 3 inches, and during the laat fourteen
years it had been but 255 inches. The de-
crease became apparent after the first serious
clearings Of wood in 1s45, and during 1876, 90
exhausted had become the soil that q famine
seemed imminent in Western Algeria.
