of the New York management.
Sharing this disgust myself, pro-
foundly impressed with the idea that
the perfect disinthrallment of the
South had become, under the circum-
stances, the be-all and end.all of the
campaign of 1876, and satisfied that
there was no hope for the Southern
people held out from the direction of
Gramercy Park, I adopted Mr.. Eos
ter's suggestion; and, with some in
dustry, spread the news of Mr.. Hayes
Endorsement of the wise and liberal
utterances of Mr.. Foster among the
representatives of the South. As cor
respondent of the New Orleans DEM
ocrat, the official journal of the Mich
oils Government in Louisiana, / was
in close and intimate communication
with the Hon. E. A. Burke, the Off
cial representative or attorney for
that government before the commit
tees of Congress. Mr.. Burke had
trenched upon the limits of human
possibility in his efforts to aid Mr..
Field and had enjoyed his labor for
his pains. He agreed with me in the
conclusion that the outlook from
Gramercy Park was hopeless that
Mr.. Tilden's attempt to handle the
disputed Presidential succession as if
it were proceeding to wreck an in
solvent railroad corporation, was
foredoomed to failure, and that the
time had come when the South must
take the best bond of self-preserva-
ton it could wiring, at the eleventh
hour, from the fast-closing jaws of
Fate.
AT this point l must digress briefly
to rectify an error that has been prop
agated as to Burke. 1t has been said
that Burke was in communication
with the Republicans from the first
that, while pretending to assist Mr..
Field, he was carefully preserving
basis of surrender to the friends of
Hayes. This statement is, to my
knowledge,

Two Notable Horses.

We alluded recently to tho per.
formances of Chamley's mare, Chest
nut Oaks. To her former laurels
she now adds q clean sweep of the
running races Of the County Fair,
at Dodgeville last week.
In the first race, half-mile heats
3 in 5,ChestnutOaks defeated Fanny
Jeuck and Ramrod in the order
named, Fanny Jeuck taking first heat
in 55t seconds.
In the second race best 8 in Shalt
mile heats, she beat Sam Patch and
Fanny Jeuck in the order named,
the latter running the last heat most
gamily on three legs.
The same day shc won the most
notable event OF the meeting. The
3 in 5 mile heats, always her best
race. Only Chestnut Oaks and Guy
Fawkes started, the latter being en-
tered to I'll and give interest to the
race,with tho full knowlodgo Of the
owner that the colt had not been ad-
equately fitted for even a 2 in 3 race,
much less . 3 in s..
The drst heat, contrary to general
expectation, was won byGuyFawkes
in magnificent style, with 40 yards
to spare, without touch of whip or
spur, in the unprecedented time, on
that track, of l:5l4, three to four sec
onds better we believe than
Canada, Twenty Cents, or Limerick
Boys best time on that course. In
describable excitement and wild bet.
ting followed the heat, despite the
repeated declarations Of the owner
that the colt was. not in condition for
the race.
The second was nearly a dead
heat, though given to the mare to
the disgust of many who thought the
colt was ahead but the judges
probably decided impartially and
fairly. This heat was run half a
second than the first.
The third heat began to test the
endurance and condition of the hor-
ses, and was won by the mare, but
not without sharp struggle. This
heat virtually ended the race, fol
Normy's spring and summer work
on Chestnut Oaks told against Guy
Fawkes with three months handling
without trainer.
The fourth heat, ii it may be SC
called. was not contested for by tbs
colt, although the horses cantereG
over the course after dark to END
the race. The heat and the race
being given to Chestnut Oaks, ant
