" 30 Backed Out,
For tho REPUBLICAN,

MEssRs. EDIToRs:-We notice In
your paper of the 29th ultimo, a state
ment from Mr.. G. NJ. Wells, manager
of the Guy Yacht Club, stating tina, we
challenged them twice for purse of
$50. 90 and backed out both times the
first time, he says we backed out and
and wanted the purse made 500. This
they refused to do we then consented
after a few days consideration, to race
for $50, and put upa forfeit OF So;
when the day arrived for both clubs to
meet and make arrangements, they say
that we claimed the forfeit and would
mo- race. Now in both of these cases he
never mentioned why we would not
race, for less than 500 the first time.
Now the true facts of the case arethese:
The first time they sent a verbal chal-
enge to the Little Harry Yacht Club,
through William Allen, that they
would race us for the frat amount nam
cd, (S5O.) We told him that the owner
Of tbs Guy had told us, the night
previous he would race the Lit
tIe Harry for $50, or 800, and if that
was not enough would make it $3.50; he
also said that he would rather it would
be the latter amonnt.
When the time arrived to put up tho
money, we were on hand with 500
which amount caused them t. bick ,ut.
We then told him that there was but
three things for him to do, viz come up,
put up, or shut mp. He took the latter
course and shut up for a while, but
shortly after this b. said he would sail
or scul against any boat in Whining
ton for $50. We accepted the challenge
for sailing match, and were to meet on
September I'D, at 4 o'clock, to make
arrangements, and deposit the money,
for the race. The Little Harry Club
met at the time aud place stated, but
found That Wells had been there earlier
in the day, deposited forfeit Of $lj,
and left saying he could not lnee, at the
time appointed, but would meet us to
make arrangements at any time after
that. We accordingly notified him
that we would meet him on September
%, 26 or q, tut Mr.. Wells failed to
make his appearance On any of the
days appointed, and we accord
lngly claimed the fl felt money, which |
we were entitled to. After we had
claimed this money, he came around
the same evening md wanted tn make |
for the race. We told |
him that we claimed the race and want.
ed the forfeit paid, we would race him
and make the arrangements then and
here. He would not consent to this,
but went and secured his forfeit money
md went home. When ne arrived there
ne wrote the statement that appeared in
he REPUBLICAN on the 28Uh ult., in
Which he states that we backed out.
The people can judge for themselves
which club backed out, by the forego.
ny statement. The owner of the Guy

dent &c the town, and it was discovered by a
yaborer. while he was digging q we'll. The
baby had q coating Of a composition about
as light as pumice-stone, but this covering,
varying in thickness from half an inch to an
inch and q half, has since been removed from
the entire head and shoulders and the right
side Of the body, showing one leg complete.
The baby is two feet and two inches long,
and weighs with the composition coating,
eighty five pounds. The head and limbs ex-
posed are said to be rightly proportional.
The cheeks are pulled out and the legs and
arms are plump. The general color OF the
baby is a blush brown, varying in lightness.
The baby looks very much like a Hiudoo
idol. MI. Renfrew the present owner Of the
baby, has found a good many people who be-
lieve it to be a petrided human being, but it
is hardly necessary to say this opinion is not
held by a scientist. The body is evidently q
work of art, and the first important question
to be determined in connection with it is in
regard to the time it was deposited at that
place where it was found by the well-digger.
Whether it was placed there by q prehistoric
race or by a representative of the present
race the people Of the Smithsonian Institute
will be called upon to decide.

and u]ncrowned aristocricy of Europe, is not
likely, in the ordinary course of events, to
come to the throne of which he is heir pre-
sumptive for many q year. His grandfather,
born in 1897, and now within a few days of
completing his eighty-fourth year, still lives
and wears the crown. The youngsters father,
born in 1881, is also alive, hale and hearty,
and likely enough to live to the age Of the old
man for whose imperial station he waits.
The prince himself celebrated his twenty
second birthday last month. Many things are
liable to happen before he reaches the throne,
or ever his fathers years, one of them, as
probable as any, being that the German
people may grow weary Of Bismarckism and
all the autocratic repression which the name
implies, and conclude TO manage their own
affairs without the aid Of emperors. 1t is
against all modern theories and almost be-
You'd belief, that a nation which prides itself
upon being the best educated and nos intel
ligent in Europe will content itself long I'M
der 9 medieval system Of government which
was accurately described BY the imperial
chancellor, the other day, in the remark that
his first duty was to the emperor, not the
representatives Of the people. But the newly
married youth, amid all the pride, pomp, and
circumstance Of the w~edding-feast, surround
ed by a swarm Of kingly cousins, is not
troubling himself much to-day about things
SO far beyond his visible horizon as the aspi-
rations Of the people, or4What they may at
tempt IN the way Of realizing them.

SILENCE.

OFT at the silent, shadowy close OF day.
When the hush'd grove has sung its parting Law,
When penslve twilight in her dusky car.
Comes slowly on to meet the evening star.
Above, below, aerial murmurs swell
From hanging wood, brown heath and bushy dell.
A thousand nameless ri's, th Il shun the light,
Stealing soft music On the ear Of night;
So oft the finer movements of the soul
That shun the sphere of pleasures gay control.
In the still shades Of calm seclusion rise,
And breathe their sweet seraphic harmonies.
