DIVULGING A TROTTING SECRET.
Lady ThOrne's Mysterious Miie---
Did She Equal Maud SIS Best Rec.

NEW YORK, Sept. 9-Ihe Spirit of the Times
has this interesting story; We presume our
readers have all heard of that very private
trial, in tho year 1870, when Mace drove Lady
Thorne a ghostly mile in the gray of the morn
ing and only two others, John J.. DotT and
William IL Saunders, timed the mare. In re-
gard to this trial her driver said; Il never
saw Lady Thorne trot full milo at her
best but once, and there are two other
men living besides myself who can tell how
fast that was, but shall never tell, aud it IL
probable they never will 1t was so fast that
it would not be credited by the public, and so
We agreed that we never would mention the

faster gait for the whole mile than | ever saw

ter" Fora round dozen of years did Dan
Mace maintain his determination TO never
tell, but in an unguardcd moment, short time
ago, out popped the secret On the occasion to
which we refer Dan had become much inter
ested III conversation with gentleman about
that year, 1870, when Lady ThOrnc was to
meet Goldsmith Maid at Buffalo, She had
beaten the Maid whenever they had commended
on eastern tracks, but the party of the llttlo
bay mare were quite confident OF victory at

on this recent occasion, how he met Mr.. Smith,
the owner of the Maid, and told him he would
beat her
@But, said Mr. Smith, Eve can trot three

The gentleman to whom Mace related the

CAIRO, Egypt, Sept %, 1882.
The citadel of Cairo where the British
troops now lodge, was built by the great
Saladin, of stones from the smaller pyra-
mlds, and formerly contained palace in
habited by the Saracen sovereign, famous
for its great "dewan," surrounded by thir-
ty-twO columns of rose granite taken from
Egyptian temples. This is replaced by
modern residence, also containing splendid
apartments, and among them bathing
chamber entirely constructed of the purest
alahastcr, wherein the officers of her
Neiesty's cavalry aud infantry now doubt
less take their morning tubs" The pros
poet from the ramparts of FL kalah-as
the fort Is called-must be considered one
Of The grandeSt in the world, especially
when the CoiOTs of evening hrIug out its
various charms. The whole extent o! the
capital lies bclow-a sheet of fiat white
roofs and CupoIas--tIntcd with the gold Of
the sunset which fills the sky with glory
behind the pyramids, plainly seen upon
tn, horizon. The Nile Is seen winding be
tween its banded banks of green, and be
yond all is the ipermlnable desert sand,
with the African mountains closing III the
scene. In the rear of the citadel are the
barren Mokaltam hills, aud near at hand
the Tombs of the Caliphs, with their deli.
cate and graceful domcs relieved against
the green fields and grey desert. AS many
as five hundred Mosques, in more or less
repair, are visible from the citadel plat
form, many of them brightly colored, with
striped and chequered pillars, and stately
freted gateway. One, that of "Ioaloon,"
has a stairway winding up its minaret, the
cornice OF which was of amber. Only ar
lists know what rum and loss have been
escaped by saving Cairo and Its beautiful
buildings from the torch and mine of the
Arabists.
From the citadel broad, new road-thc
Boulevard Mohammed Ali-now leads
down to the Esbckiyeh, the large open
garden square. This-by which the Brit
ish troops will have marched u occupy FL
KalGh-passes by the splendid tacade and
portal of the Sultan Hassan Mosque, al
ready mentioned, which is perhaps the
very finest in Cano. That ed.tice is also
built of stones ircm ruined pyramids,
though Its beauty and majesty make the
THEFT half forgiven. The Arabs say that
the Royal builder, after lavIshly reward
ing its architect, cut of his hand, in order
that he might never rival his own work
elsewhere.

During the twelve months preceding Sept.

quarter of a billion dollars; but during the
corresponding period prior to Sept. /,

nearly five million dollars. The total diff
