A TRICK OF A LOVER. One fine winter evening, early in*the present eentury, Col. Smith. and his po Pst sister, Pat- hickory fire enjoying their “ otiwm eum digns: tate,”’ without any interruption, for at least an hour; and that, considering the sex of Miss Pat- ty, was certainly very remarkable. The Colon- ol was sitting cross legged in a great arm chair, with his spectacles on, and his pipe in one hand and a newspaper in the other—fast asleep. Miss Patty was moving herself gently forward | tween Andrew Dalton and Samuel H. Taylor for and backward in a low rockingehair. Close by her feet was the cat, while Carlo was stretched out in full length on a rug infront of the fire, and like his master, fast asleep. At length the Colonel from his nap, —— < rs spectacles, and rubbed his eyes, then glancing at a very large pile of that lay on the table ae him, pire — “I wish Henry was here, to help me about my rent.”’ _ Well, I really wish he was,”’ anewored his ister. “Tean't « him this month yet,” yawn- ed the Colma’ Prvtelt _* Had’nt you better send for him?” ssid his sister. eee this the dog got up and walked towards the door. ~* Where are you going, Carlo?” said the old gentieman. The dog looked into his master’s face wag- ging his tail, but never said a word, and pur- sued his way toward the door; and as he could not well open it himself, Miss Patty got up and opened it for him. Tho Colonel seemed perfect- ly satisfied, and was composing himself for another nap, when the loud and cheerful bark- ing of the dog announced the approach ofsome one. and roused him from his lethargy. Pres- ently the door opened, and a young man gaily entered the room. ening Star, VOL. IX. The Hundred Mile Race.

Mr. T., exercising the privilege | thua conceded to him, selected a horse owned Hon. Andrew Shechan, one of the representatives from New York in the present Assembly, and in due time both horses were put in training for the cont » Mr. iton’s horse is between nine and ten years of age, and is valuable on account of his speed, having shown 2.42 on the track. He is stock, and is inevery respect a fine ani- mal. The Taylor horse is seven septs of age and y Eclipse | comes from blood stock, being sited b from a Messenger mare. He was bred in West- chester country, where his then owner used bim to draw.a cart, and kept him at snch ser- vice until he was purchased by Mr. Sheehan, when, for the first time, he was driven to. har- ness. His greatest speed is three minutes. Tho horses started from Gallup's hotel. Wash- ington street, yesterday morning at 5 o’clock, ac- cording to the judge's time. The start was good, both horses coming up at the word nearly side by side. After leaving the pavement they increased their speed, the horses much ahintated a desire to travel. At 64 o'clock they 'd through Schenectady, 15 miles from this city. Amsterdam, 30 miles froin the city, was passed at 9 o'clock and 20 minutes. neither appearing tired from the task they had ate accomplished.

The horses at this time, although they showed signs of being somewhat tired, were to all ap- | pearance in good condition to accomplish the re- maining twenty miles, and passed Illion, 823 miles from this city, at 1 o’clock and ten minutes. Soon after leaving this place the Dalton horse be- gan to flag, and his driver noticing it, concluded “ Weil, L am glad to see you—sit down,” | to stay his progress, and on reaching Frankfort, said the Colonel. “ So do,”’ said his sister. “There.

Henry, either anxious to help his uncle or'| himeelf, broke the seal from the top of the bot- tle of cordial, and drew the cork, while Patty got some glasses. “Well, my boy,’ said the Colonel, whose | good humor increased every moment, “ what's | the news in ?

Roswell F—,a Vermont lawyer of distinguished ability, now re- | siding at St.Louis, and in the first rank of the | bar of Missouri, had brought a suit in court which was really so plain acase for the plaintiff that, having submitted the Leeper and other proofs to the court, he felt that his client’s interest really sired no more, and he accordingly xat down without making the customary opening address | tothe jury.
