wicked smile came over his lips
thin and then compassionate his
voice, though even in utterance, was
cracked as he caught the jockey by the
throat with one hand and with the
other drew derringer from his fob
pocket.
MY mare IS the best blood on the
course, and can win the race" he
said. 81 have staked all that l and
my family have on the trot. If you
don't win this race l will bespatter
the track with your brains, and if you
have brains you can know that l
won't be jockeyed!"
The Colonel's mare came in ahead
IN every heat.
If the system was adopted toward
the general run of our sporting peo-
pie, the results might be equally as
honest.

ceived some days age. Quite number of

W. J. L. HOLLAND,

At last it seems that a remedy is dis
covered to check this fearful disease.
Messrs. Lankrum &c Litchfield are
shipping large quantities of this VAL
liable medicine to the South.
REMARKS:
The times may be considered hard, and
money scarce, but few dollars invested
for the 'Seyen Springs ''lrOn and Alum
Mass'' are worth $40 tc every one thus
spent to any person who is not perfectly
well and hearty. There are persons fiat
would give $40 bottle rather than be
without it. A gentleman in Mississippi
says he would give 500 for a single bottle
if he could not obtain it for less. The re-
tail price is only LOO per botiie-sent
post-poid to any post office. This Mass is
for sale by BUNTING & PEPPER, and J. A.
DICKEY & Co., Bristol Tenn, and by near

The Churches I'm New York City.

New York has not so many churches
as is generally supposed. The common
notion of the number is about 500, which
would not be many for a city contain
ing over 100000 people. While
churches have steadily increased here,
it is thought by many of the orthodox
that they have not increased nearly so
rapidly as they should have done-not,
indeed, in proportion to the growing pop
ulation of the metropolis. The churches
at present number 375, divided among
the following sects: Protestant Episco-
pal, 73; Roman Catholic, "a; Methodist
Episcopal, so; Presbyterian, Al !; Baptist,
81; Jews, %; Lutheran, 81; Dutch Re-
formed, 20; African Methodist Episco-
pal 8; United Presbyterian, 7; Congre-
gational, 6; Reformed Presbyterian, 5;
Universalist, 5; Unitarian, 4; Friends,
3; miscellaneous, 81: among the last, l
True Dutch Reformed, l Sweden
borgian, / Greek Catholic. Il often
has been said that there is a Mosque
here, and also q Josh temple, to
which the Moha1nmedans and Chinese
resort; but this seems to be one of the
facts of imagination that SO abound
nowadays. There may be place
where the Manhattan Celestials wor-
ship, but it is not worthy the name of
temple. The churches give, accord
ing to the population, about one to every
$500 inhabitants; but a very large pro
portion of these do not attend church
at all. It is said that, there are in the
city well nigh 1000 licensed liquor OF
beer shops, or one to every 500 of the
population, which would go to show
that bodily thirst for alcoholic or malt
liquors is near six times as great as
hunger of the soul. But in great cities
the worst is always on the surface, and
appearances frequently fail to represent
reality.-Ne1U York Times.

Angel, the DefauIter.

An agent Of the Pullman Palace Car
Company, provided with the necessary
affidavits and papers for the extradition
of Charles w. Angel, the Secretary,
and for the recovery of the $4,000
found in his possession, has sailed for
the Capital of Portugal, where Angel is
confined. Mr.. Pullman, says that, al
though the company employed the best
detectives in the country at large ex-
pense, they were unable to get any trace
of the defaulter later than July rs, two
days after his departure from Chicago,
when he was seen in New York. AS yet
they don't know on what vessel he sailed
for Europe, or where he has been in his
wanderings. Beyond the bare fact Of
his arrest and detention, and the recov-
cry of $4,000, cabled to the Department
of State and the newspapers, and the
willingness of the Portuguese Govern
ment to give him up, as recited in the

The Marquis and Marcllioness OF Lorne.

John George Edward Henry Douglas
Sutherland Campbell, called by courtesy
the Marquis of Lorne, son of the Duke
of Argyle, now Governor General of
Canada, husband of Louise Caroline
Alberta, fourth daughter of Victoria, of
the Royal House of Hanover, was born
at Stafford House, London, in 1916.
He was elected member of Parliament
for Argyleshire in the Liberal interest
in February, 1868, and in December Of
the same year he became secretary to
his father at the India Office. The chief
event of his life was the marriage above
alluded to, which took place in St,
Georges Chapel, Windsor, on March
81, 1871. A work of no merit whatever,
entitled "A Trip to the Tropics" was
published by the Marquis in 1867. He
is great favorite with his mother-in-
law; has an agreeable face, pleasing
manners, but Intellectually he is not
above the average Of the members of
the British nobility, which is equal to
| saying that his learning will never drive
him mad In Canada he is his wife's
superior, because he represents her
mother At home his wife takes pre-
cedence, because she is Of royal blood.
It is said that the married life of the
Marquis has been very happy, and that,
outside of the snubs which his brothers
in-law ~bestow upon him, he has sue
ceeded in getting along nicely.
Her Royal Highness Princess Louise
Caroline Alberta, fourth daughter and
sixth child of Victoria sAlexand1ina,
| Queen of Great Britain and Ireland
and Empress Of India, was born on
