PAROLE.

For the beneit of such of oar readers rs are
interested In the performances and stock of
blood herses, we give few ieals regarding
Pierre Lorlllards famous gclfing Parole,
which has OF late been making the horsemen
of England ':d-n their slausted eyeS' as they
have net for many year Parole is brown
horse, six years old, by Leamingtss, dam
Maiden, by Lexington, cut Of Kitty Clark, by
Glencoe. 1t will be seen that he is half
brother of Losgfellow, the magnificent horse
owsed by Colonel Harper, and which was
crippled at Saratoga in his tremendous racc
with Harry Bsssett. The Lexington Lean
ington strain of horses are the great rivals Ia
Kentucky. Harper adhered to the long
strlded Leamlngtons, while Alexander and
his friends chung to the impetuOus children of
Boston. In Parole these strains are blended,
and the result is horse which, as Dan Den
nison says, ''is deformed with speed" He was
foaled in 1873 at Chestnut Hill, near Phil
adelphia He stands sixteen hands high and
has not white mark to relieve his solid brown
coat. His present owner bought him when
yearling for 81 900. As two-year old he ran
six times, winning the July and August stakes
at Long Branch, and the Saratoga and Ken
lucky Stakes at Saratoga. As three year
old he was beaten early in the season by Vag-
rant in the Kentucky Derby. He was amiss,
and it was said that he should not have been
allowed to run. He did not run again until
the Saratoga meeting, when he beat Tom
Ochiltree for the alleged Stakes at Jerome
Park. After that he was beaten at Baltimore
by Vigil, both for the Dixie and Brecken-
ridge stakes. AS four ear-old he won the
WOODBURY. stakes, the Saratoga Cup and Sum
mer Handicup. He also beat Nirginius and
Glasgow i'll dash of mile and half, even
weights. At the jerome Park meeting he
captured the Maturity stakes, the Grand
National Handicup and the All-aged stakes.
Paroles next and most famous victory was
the of two miles and half with Ten
Brock and Tom Ochiltree in Baltimore, Dc
tober "a, 1877. Ten Brock was favorite at
large odds. He sold for 81 POO, Tom Ochil-
tree $500 and Parold $3.50 in the pools
Parole came in calamity two lengths in front
of Ten Brock and six lengths ahead of Tom
Ochiltree. Last season Parole ran ten races,
winning eight, including the Baltimore,
Monmouth and Saratoga cups. This year he
has won two great races III England, and is
booked for more, with fair prospects of win
nin9.

THE SITUATION.

The Ezreka Trader OF the 9Th inst. contains
the following saort bat concise statement OF
the condition of public feeling relative to rail-
read makers as bearing ali influence upon the
sare politics. Of the State. Every thought
f.l person will soncede that they have placed
The right estimate upon the tone and temper
of the people
One of the most significant features of our
battle with the railroad company, or rather our
expose of their Vaccinations, as they have
not dared to enter the lists either to defend :,
excuse OF apologize for their action, is the
grand response that it has called forth, not
only from the community, but from abroad
Subscriptions, accompanied with words of
hearty sympathy have poured in from all
quarters, and it is evident that the people
have determined that the Leader shall not suf-
fer from the prosecutions Instituted by Its en-
emias. While it is very gratifying to be thus
supported by the honest men of all parties,
and demonstrates that a newspaper can better
afford to be on the right side and denounce
wrong, than to bend and cringe before the an
ger and attempted vengeance of a corporation,
there is another aspect to the case that is full
of bright promise in the future. The railroad
companies may boast Of paving the way for
coming triumphs, may engage in fixing things
for the next contest, bat they are not alone
in the work The people are in the same line
and pursuing the same course. They have
been taught sharp lesson and one which Will
not be forgotten for years to come. Betrayed
and sold out by those in whom they put their
trust, their interests trodden upon and con-
temptuously thrust aside by virtue of the
powerful influence of the sack, they have
gained experience that will be used with tell
ing effect in 1880. From every quarter, from
the Eastern boundaries of the State to the
Western line, we are in receipt of the same
news, and are in position TO accurate ~ guage
this feeling. 1t is not confined to party or
clique, but comes from the people, from those
who are oppressed and outraged by the wrongs
perpetrated. 1t is SO deep and widespread
that it cannot be resisted, ami it will sweep
those who oppose it into oblivion. 1t is but
the prelude to the coming storm, the mutter
ings of tempest that in its fury will shake
to the very foundation these naughty, AFRO
giant corporations, that will break down their
safeguards and brush aside their tools with
resistless force. Tie masses have had quite
enough of lip service and broken pledges.
Politicians promises and platforms carefully
builded up to catch votes, have become obso-
lete features in Nevada politics, and it will
take some very shrewd manipulating on the
part of the old-time hacks, ''sweeter molasses
than they have yet used to catch flies with,
to deceive them again. The contest is not
only of to-day, bat of the future, and the
capital-ridden masses are storing up memories
that neither explanations nor excuses will OBJ

PLEAsAST.-Those persons who think the

were most heartrending. Only two of the
Princes are said tie have met their fate with
dignity AT the commencement no blood
was split, the vertebrsB of the victims neck
having been neatly disjointed or severed; but
later on, when the two executioners-and
only two such characters could be found to
do the work in all Aandalay-got tired, they
resorted to hacking and hewing, strangulation,
and any other speedy form of killing which
came to their minds, even billets of wood be-
ing used to effect the purpose. A large pit
had been dug in readiness, and the bodies of
men, women and children were thrown into
this common receptacle, many Of the victims
being still alive, though stunned"

SALTY,-The following item, giving de-
from letter written to and published in the
Ogden Freeman: Eighty miles from Cherry
Greek, on the line of Utah and Nevada, TWEEN
ty miles south of the old overland stage road,
is wonderful and very productive salt marsh
that is one and half miles wide by four miles
long. In the spring of the year this Overtiows
from surplus water that comes from the sur
rounding country. There are some two hun
dred fresh springs in and around this marsh,
atfording water good to drink. Of these
springs none Of them are more than one hun
bred yards distant from the marsh. In the
Summer season the water evaporates, leaving
a deposit of salt from two inches to one foot
thick The distance from Great Salt Lake is
175 miles, with mountain chains intervening.
Last year 1000 tons of salt was wagoned
from this marsh to Cherry Creek, Ward,
Phoebe and Hamilton for use in reducing ores.
1t is worth Sl3 at the marsh and $50 at Cherry
Greek, the nearest camp. The property is
owned by the Solar Salt Company, composed
Of Judge Riley, NJ. J. O'Connor, John
O'Dougherty and William Barry. One con-
tract made last fall to supply this salt at Ward
amounted to the neat little sum of $50, 900.
In collecting the salt seven white men and
thirteen Indians are employed. 1t costs 81
per ton to put it on wagons. The process of
gathering it is to use little landscapes to
collect it in piles, from which it is shoveled
into dummy cars that run on temporary
track laid to solid ground, where it is trans
ferred into wagons for shipment to the min
ing camps.
