Pools at the Races.

IL has been many times said that some
people who are very fond Of witnessing
trotting race will not attend on ac-
count Of pools being sold. as il is looked
upon by many as gambling. To this
have to say: know OF men in this city
who would not attend a trotting meet
ing. let il be conducted ever so honor
ably. for fear they would be caught buy
ing a pool. which might ruin their
standing In the community forever, yet
these same men have been known TO
wager their last dollar, and all they
could borrow, on wheat. corn. oats and
stocks through their brokers on the
board of trade. and not knowing. either.
whether the margins which they were
compelled TO advance from time to time
ever went further than the pockets OF
the said broker or not This is what
may be called gambling Of the most
dangerous kind, yet il is carried on
every day in this city by men who look
upon horse trotting as sin: but as long
as the board Of trade Spectator il sue
cessful he's an right. Let him 90 broke
once and he's not much Of fellow after
