and sold to us at a big advantage rather than return them. We are manufacturing these cloths into

pleasant sport and recreation. After the usual amount of talk, always indulged in on such occzsions, the judges and starters were chosen, and asiart effected. The following horses were entered: P, Welsh’s bay filly Gay Girl, E. H. MecMullen’s brown filly, Jenny Lind, andj George Me- Neill’s grey filly, Goldie. In the first heat Gay Girl went to the front at the start and maintained the lead withouta break to the finish, followed by Jenny Lind, closely pressed by Goldie. In the second heat Gay Girl again took the lead, and as before, won with apparent ease; Goldie seccnd, Jenny Lind third. The judges, however, award- ed the heat to Jenny Lind, her’ driver claiming it on the ground of Goldie running. A_ third heat was now trotted, with Gay Girl as usual leading, followed at some distance by Jenny Lind and Goldie in the or- der named. A heat wes now trot- ted between Jenny Lind and Goldie, which was the most clesely con- tested race of the day, the horses being together the entire way, and coming in neck and neck. The judges, however, awarded the heat to Jenny Lind, although a majority of those present were of opinion that, with a little training, McNeill’s mare would make the fastest trotter.

P. Welsh’s Gay Girl isa handsome bay filly, sired by Gay Boy, and comes of good trotting stock, he being cired by the cele- brated Dean Swift. Jenny Lind and Goldie were both sired by All Right, and give promise, with a little more training, to become fairly good trotters. The sport for! the day being now pretty weil over, the crowd quietly dispersed, seemingly well! pleased with their afternoon’s enjuyment,

A few days ago the deserted wife of this mudel husband arrived in Yarmouth. She} discovered her husband, and _ they; had some long and serious talks, which) ended in his deciding to return home. Oa Sunday evening the wronged wife went! tv the house her husband had been living in and saw the woman who had come b:-| tween them. The latter, it is said, bragged | of her influence over the husband and said, he might go home now, but he would be! back in Yarmouth before long. The in-j jured wife became exasperated, and seizing
