The Horse Race.

The race that took place at the driving
park yesterday, between the horses own
ed by Geo. Paquette and S. LIE Gault was
the event of the week for some of our
sporting men and the consequence was
considerable money changed hands. Be-
fore the race lie Gault's was the favOrite
by considerable odds, but as is often the
case in horse racing, the favOrite one
failed to make the time. The race was
for 800 stakes, to be won by best three
in five, with the following results:
FIRST HEAT.
Paquette's horse. .3:2O
LcGaults pony. Observation-Disclosures. .3:2,
SECOND HEAT.

beGault's pony. ............''.' '''''''oifIa
Some dissatisfaction was created by
the decision of the judges in the third
heat as the majority of the spectators
considered it dead heat. And then in
the fourth heat while scoring for start
the drivers started after being called
back by the judges, but it was finally
amicably settled to the satisfaction OF
all concerned. Quite large crowd
were in attendance, and as the record
shows the race was close enough to make
it quite interesting for them. The tract
is in good condition and several more
matches are on the tapis.

The long-legged man made a rush for

man was laughing at remark made by

Bows and Thimbles.

No man can, like the writer, live
sixty years without often wishing he
had learned to use sewing thimble
well in his early boyhood, especially
II he has gone about the world much.
Buttons will come of, stitches will break,
and how handy it is for boys at school,
for men at hotel, at friends house,
indeed anywhere away from home-to
be able to whip on button, stop
starting rent, and do many other little
servings, without calling on a woman,
or perchance sending for a tailor before
being able to appear at hotel table.
One seldom, if ever, learns to use
thimble if this part of his education has
been neglected in small boyhood.. The
writer has travelled good deal, and at
. rough guess has broken threads at least
500 times in attempting to work needle
through button or garment without
thimble. Boys, take our advice, and
every one of you learn to use thimble
well before you grow up. Do it this
very winter; it is not feminine to do SO.
Do it and if you live long you will
many times thank us for this advice

Vinegar Flowing from an Oak Tree.

While Rev. Daniel McHorton, colored,
was cutting down a large red oak tree
lear Buffers Greek he observed clear
liquid running from the cut. Upon
tasting this he found that it was strong
vinegar. Procuring vessel he caught
the liquid as it ran out and obtained
about three gallons and half. The
liquor has the taste and odor of good,
strong cider vinegar. There was small
crack in the centre of the tree, and it is
supposed that the sap collected in this,
fermented and turned to vinegar.

Adventures of a Baby.

The Kingston IN. Y. } Freeman relates
the experience of young mother in
that town with her first baby. The
mother, it seems, had been reared in
luxury, and was lacking in practical
experience: "She undertook to give
the child bath in small foot tub. The
lady's mother, who lives with her, pass
ing through the room, dipped her finger
in the water, and told her daughter it
was too cold for the little one, and that
she would have to warm it. Instead Of
adding a little warm water, she placed
the bath-tub with the baby in it on a
small gas stove, and awaited for further
developments. The developments came
as soon as the bottom of the tub began
to get extra warm. The offspring gave
one yell, when the fond mother, grand
mother and the two servants rushed to
the rescue. In the future, grandmother
will look after the child, while the
mother reads up on the cares of mother
and how to bring up children"

A Belligerent aenator.

Senator Fishburne was released from jail at
Columbia, 8. c., the other day, on giving
bond for $4,000 to keep the peace. Returning
to his seat in the State Senate, he spoke on the
stock law. Next day the debate on the stock
law was renewed, and Fishburne was compelled
to take his seat by Lieutenant Governor Ken
nedy, the presiding officer, ON account of being
out of order. When the Senate adjourned
Fishburne approached Kennedy and asserted
that his rulings had been unfair to him. Ken
nedy replied: "Oh, no, Fishburne, treated
you as would have done any other Senator" !"
Fishburne responded: "You are id liar,
SIR" Whereupon, Kennedy struck him. They
were separated. Fishburne followed Kennedy
up the street. cursing him /; and finally over
taking him, struck at Kennedy with his stick.
The blow was warded on by gentleman with
Kennedy, and the parties separated. Fish
burne has been committed to Jail.
