Until Peralto can prove his capability
exceeding on horseback the speed of a
lecomotiue, ii is by no means clear that his
equestrian feats can serve better purpose
than ''to make the vulgar STARE" He sue

miles in fifteen hours. An ordinary loco

without the expenditure of any breath or
without causing any suffering.
DIPLoMAmc relations having been e.

FRANCE began her preparations for the
Paris Exposition in the summer of. 1876,
while the Centennial Exhibition was in
the climax Of it's grand triumph, and now
the Paris Exhibition has scarcely been
opened before Italy proposes to hold an
International Exhibition in 1881. If an

Immigration is beginning to show very
favorable features again. A very large

Peralto's grand triumph at Fleetwood
Park, few days ago, removes all doubts
as to his capacity to accomplish the feat he
had heretofore attempted in vain. He
came in yesterday twenty-nine minutes
ahead Of time, showing that within the 6f-
teen hours allotted 10 him he could have
ridden 317 miles ipste.d Of the 305 miles
claimed. Unfortunately Perallo's success
will be doubtless made the excuse for the
efforts Of q host Of imitators, who will
strive to outstrip his time until they ridt
themselves to blindness or death and
long suffering public to semi-lunacy.
