Great inconvenience teeinb 70 be felt in
turf circles At the rshatica, crusade against
betting on races, and breeders and owners
OF thoroughbreds, as well as the officers and
members Of the jockey clubs, are almost in a
state Of panic. The attempt to suppress
betting is notable example of the pro-
pensity In men 10 damn the sins they are
not inclined 20. Seriously speaking, the
anti-turf legislation is an outrageous subver-
sion Of private right. The turf is an institu-
tion which has been established for genera
tions, and until lately the right to make
betting on races crime has never been
maintained. That the breed Of horses has
been greatly improved by racing is beyond
question, and it is equally intoHtestible that
without trials ef speed and the privilege
Of laying wagers thereon the raising Of
thoroughbred horses would lapguish. oh.
viously no good to public morals could
be reached by stopping speculation on
races, when so many avenues for
equally pernicious speculations are left
open. When q man can bet freely
on the price Of stocks, Of wheat, pork, cot
ton, corn, or oil, there is nothing to be gained
by preventing him from betting on horses.
One form ofgambling is quite as pernicious as
the other, and there is rank Inconsistency In
trying TO prevent one while the other is left
untouched. However. it is probably useless
to reason with the fanatics who wish TO resu
late every ones business except their own.
Generally speaking, those who advocate leg
islation which would destroy the turf are
demagogues and hypocrites. A few are sim.
ply fanatical fools, but most Of them are en- 9.
gagged in the crusade for the purpose Of pan
dering to the bigotry Of narrow minded pro
vincial voters.

FOREIGN NOTES.

The Paris correspondent OF the Daily Telegraph
gives an account Of feat performed by a new con.
juror, Buatler dc Kolta, who has just made his ap.
pearance In that city. After spreading newspaper
on the moor the conjuror placed chair upon H. ana
lhen asked young lady TO sit down. lie threw over
her piece OF SILK, which barely covered her from
head 10 foot. He then rapidly removed the drapery
and me chair was empty. As soon as the amaze
ment OF ihe spectators gave them time to applaud,
the young lady walked on from the side and bowed
her Acknowledgements. There certainly was no
trap Ia the moor, the chair WAS OF tho ordinary Kind
and the trick was done In strong light. The lady
Ia fact disappeared before the very eyes OF the a-
dlence, but no quickly was The trick done that no one
present saw her escape.
"Athough no great feat OF arms" says the Lon
don Iruth, "tbe Bnrnah campaign has been well
conducted aud In Its results Is important than
the Tel.el, Kebir campaign. Yet, 40 far az have
seen, no dispatch from Gen Prendergast has been
mentioned How many dispatches would have

been lauded and rewarded, had 'our General been

There is some difference Of opinion as TO
the plan that is best to adopt for the exten-
sion of the streets and avenues. All agree,
however, that some plan should be pre-.
scribed by law, and prescribed now, before
the suburbs Of the city are laid out upon
plans which individual owners deem best for
their individual interests. There is ample
time tor the passage Of q elldigested law
upon this subject, and we trust that our
active District Commissioners will take the
matter in hand and secure legislation this
session. The minute typographical survey
Of the District, undertaken some years since,
has progressed far enough to enable the
Commissioners to formulate a plan for the
extension of the streets Of the city, having
due regard to the natural features Of the
country and the convenience Of the COM
munity.

The extravagant estimate for the INDECENT
insane of the District Of Columbia was cut
down over $1,000 by the Senate. This de-
crease is not sufficient. The District now
pays too much for the support Of INDECENT
insane brought here, in order that they may
enjoy the benefits of the Government Hos
pital for the Insane at the expense Of the
country and the District taxpayers. 1t is
too late now, perhaps, for intelligent action in
the way of further reduction, but steps
should be taken by the District authorities
and by the District Committees Of Congress
to ascertain exactly what proportion Of the
expenses Of st. Elizabeth is Justly charge
able to the District, 80 that only the proper
sum may appear in the next years budget.

Petitions have been circulated for the

and counter petitions have been numer-

there should be any conflict on this ques.
tion. Both squares are needed-and
urgently needed, too-for Government pur-
poses. The purchase Of both sites, and the
erection thereon of suitable buildings. would

by wise wish to have reliable estimates Of

feature Of the bill, however, is wrong. The
District should not be required to pay SO
much as one half Of the cost.
