They would at every vicious ling sttempt to knock the pipe out of his mouth without any regard for the damage to his hoary head or his kindly face.

Take him, O children of Un- substantiality! and in spite of his heavy name you will find him. of light weight enough to suit you. The Mustang Race. When George Parker was taken off the raco track at Fleetwood, yesterday afternoon, he had already accomplished a great feat of en- durance, akhough he had not achieved what he started out todo. Although looked on generally by the public as a test of the en- durance of the hardy little horses called mustangs on the Pacific slope, it soon resolved itself into a test of the rider. Ten miles each for these hardy animals is nothing compared with the work they are called on to get through in their home country. As we have before noticed, the gait of these ani- mals is either a gallop or a walk, “the California expression ‘lope’ de- scribing their swift and easy motion with characteristic aptness and brevity. Bure footed as goats they are, amid their native mountains, safely ridden at full speed slong the brink of precipices where a fall would mean sudden death. Seldom reduced to the tame condition of animals born in bondage, and ‘broken in” after a fashion as rude as their riders, we can well understand their unmanageability on the heavy and monotonous track at Fleetwood yesterday. As will be seen from our reports elsewhere, Parker had to waste his reserves of physical force in mastering the wild brutes almost every mile before he got well running. In the two hundred and twenty-six miles run he had to mount and dismount one hundred and eighty-one times, part of the time ina driving rain, bearing a load of saturated slothing, which neither helped himself nor the animals. From what he accomplished in spite of all the difficulties there is good reason to suppose that Parker could, on a favorable day, with the animals a little better eused to. the track, ride-the distance and bear up suc- cessfully against the terrific physical and mental strain. The latter, taking the shape of anxiety at the vicious behavior of the mustangs, may be counted as a serious item. On such aday and under such conditions fewer remounts would be necessary, and we see that in the eleven hours and twenty- seven minutes of the race his relays cost him three-quarters of an hour, which should have been sufficient for the entire distance. The average time made by the mustangs was 2:393. The time in which the three hun- dred and five miles should be done would be 2:57, leaving a margin of seventeen ¢econds above yesterday's record for changes, and with a fair day and a good track he would increase this margin sensibly and stand a good chance to win. We think he should try again. Tue Coat Comsrnation.—For people who have got to keep themselves warm next winter with the assistance of coal the prospect is not agreeable, so far as relates to the prico of that commodity. Between the Molly Maguires and the monopolists who own and control the mines and railroads, and who are not a bit better than the Molly Maguires themselves, this necessity of life is to be as dear as ever, and, perhaps, dearer than for many recent years. ‘There ‘was, it appears, a chance lately that there might be a ‘‘coal war” with the monopolists, as there is a freight war with the railway companies, and a consequently exaggerated competition that would make cheap coal for atime at least. But coal monopolists have reconciled their differences, and instead of fighting one another are agreed amicably upon the old programme of plundering the consumer to the last possible cent. Inven- tions for economizing fuel are in order. PERSONAL INTELLIGENCE, Herbert Spencer Is sick.

The softas, that is all persons attached to the mosques in any capacity whatever, are practically masters of the situation, They number about 10,000 persons, and their influence over the Proletariat is su- preme, They utter threats against the Sultan and his ministers, and sometimes against the Christians Al. though quiet just now, they profess to be friends to the Tatter. ‘THE SULTAN AWED BY THE MOB. Yesterday a great number of the softas went to the palace and demanded the dismissals of the Grand Vizier Mahmoud Nedim Pacha, the Chelkh-ul-Isiam and the Minister of War, ‘The Suttan resisted for an hour, bat the clamor of the mob finally induced him to demand the resigna- tion of Mahmoud Nodim Pacha, the Grand Vizier. The scene was most riotous and disorderly. ‘THB MILITARY IN FEAR. Constantinople contains only 1,600 regular soldiers, vhe remainder being reditsand recruits. The Turkish officers openly admit their mability to control the Intter in case of an outbreak, and it is generally be- Neved they would obey the softas. Mobs of softas have been parading the strects during the last three days demanding the dismissal of Mah- moud Nedim Pacha, whom they accuse of being under Rassian influence.

A Times despatch from Constantinople by way of Odessa says an outrageous article, which app@red in the Levant Herald on Tuesday, bas caused great in- dignation among the diplomatic body and the public at large.
