The horses are owned by Messrs- Watson and Budrow, and the distance 300 yards, go-as-you-please, for a purse of $00. Bud row's horse reached the goal aoout -IT feet too quick for the other horse, and was de clared the winner. Watson's horse is young .and not used to racing, hut is a graceful runner, and with a little training will get to the front in good shape. On Saturday last L. X. Edson's boy was raking hay on the river bottom when suddenly his horse hecame un manageable aiuUran a way, carrying the boy with them for some distance, when the rake turned over, throwing the lad to the ground violently, knocking him sneechlessibr a few minutes. How ever he soon recovered and is now do ing well Avith the exception that he is rather the worse for bruises received. The tongue of the -ake was driven in to the ground about three feet, It was a narrow escape for the boy. We have been creditablv informed that men and boys who b.the in the raging Bepliblica.n are vont to make indecent exposures of their persons to passers by, near the bridge. The Chief would suggest to parties who go bathing that they take up 11 more re tired spot. Such conduct is unbecom ing' to the most depraved aud shonld be stopped.

On Saturday hist, the 41st represen tative convention met at the court liousc in this city and organized by electing J. H. Shugart as chairman and F. B. Gump as secretary.

On motion the convention adjourned Tuesday, August 5, was a day long to be remembered in Wall street. Rumors were Hying around about Jay Gould. He was the man that day; if he had failed then, thousands of others all over the country would fail. Dur ing the most intense excitement that day a reporter called on Mr. Gould, and found him quietly reading the New York Weekly. Gould knows a good thing when he sees iL Special departments of boys' and children's school suits at the Golden Eage clothing store.

Nothing, however, of a serious nature occcrod to mar the otherwise rHjaeefnJ surrotindmr until on the morning of the lDtii of Angus:, when Burr a'.temptctl to cros ;thc farm oi Mrs. Battles via the okl nul over tlie divide, Prcrictis to this itseenu 3Ir. li. had pnt a fence across the road and had rotated to allow Burr the priveicge of using it, although he claim that the rest of the neighbors were ermiueil t do so, and that it is a public road. On the morning in question Burr arrived at the feice and on attempting to tear it duwr. he was met by Mrs. Battles, who in a rtern and pre-emptory man- ncr demand him to desist aud upon ins reffua' totlososne strncK nun a severe blow over the head witn tle I broadside of a fcnade, feltini: him lothe earth ami ou his xrising and making a till further attempt to tear down tne fence she dealt him aaother blow.

Battles was bound ov r in the sum of 200 for her appearance at the October term of the district court, to arfswer to the charge of assault with intent to kill. I'oliticsl Jlattr.T. The senatorial iconvention takes place tomorrow at txvo p. m., the out come of which is hard to foreshadow. The Chief believes that the result will be satisfactory to the people. So far, we have a jood ticket in the field, from president down to commi.-sioner, and by the first of next week we will have a complement of officers, Nation al, State, and county, nominated on the republican ticket, and then the campaign will begin to move riht along, and James G. Blaine and John A. Logan will begin their complete walk-a-way to the White House. The hand writing is on the wall, and we feel ;ure of the downfall of the demo cratic party in November. There nev erhas been such enthusiasm for years in the good old republican party, and "scores of honest democrats" arc turning over to republicanism auvl right. "While the lamp hold out to burn," etc. tnere is a chance for our democrat!" friends to renounce tho er rors of days gone by. by forsaking the democratic hh,:p Air a safer tine the republican party. We feel revived, and if we are not much mistaken the en tire republican element in the whole country is in the same condition, and ready for the Jr.-iy that is to lead them to vicUnv in V'vember.
