’ SueU were soroe of the sounds that saluted the
ears in any one of the numerous crowds that dotted
the ephrse: Preparations now cdfumenped for the
business of the day.. Before .the steeple chase were
one or two flat races of no particular interest, al
though one of them washot without.a ludicrous in-,
bident, one of the horses engaged In the race, and
colled by his owner “ Impostor,” (in consequence
of his unreliable qualities,).having bolted from,the
.course right through a party seated on the sod at
lunch, knocking over champagno bottles, Ac., but,
strange' tossy,/njuiing np one..
It was now about three o'olock, when thb bugle
sounded for the* great taco of the day. , Through
the kindness of a friend I had obtained access to
the enclosure wherathe horses were saddled, and
■ thus had an opportunity of seeing them stripped.
There weresixhoms in ill to go, out of a dozen
entries, and thb rivals / Whalobbna H and j “ Pcop
o’day Boy” were clearly , the best of tho lot. To
ft Oritical eyei‘neither of them wore, howoyer, fit
.for a fcuf raoe, W‘they were’both entirely too
" high) 1 ’ and were jumping opt of their skins for
ysns;of sufficient oxerpjse.: Through comb over

groom who had ‘‘Whalebone’’ in, charge', glan
cing unbatily from time to iimo at the horse. Pre
sently Isawa faint smile chase/ away! the frown
upon St. George’s .handsome eounienanee, and I
inwardly conjectured that he had hitoipon some
plan of getting a preparatory gallop before the
race, although how this .was to be accomplished,
knowing' tho ; wbll-knowh punctuality of Lord
Howth in starting the horses, X could not imagine.
Meanwhile /Whalebone” seemed to treat all this
.anxiety about him with the greatest contempt,
laying down his ears ominously when anything
approached him, ’ and being so particularly aotive
with his heels that I made an inward vow to give,
him*a wide beyth on the course. .‘‘Peepo’day
Boy,” bn.tho appeared ' a good-tempered
glob of. a. horse,. apparentlyfitter for a brower’s
drey thanfor afour-miiedash, at racing speed,
bver one of the stillest countries in Ireland. At' last
the bogle sounded “to saddle,” and at ton mi
nutes to. three the horses left the enclosure. They,
all suhmitted to be mounted readily, save ‘ jWhalo
bone,’? who reared, plunged; and*-lashed ‘but'
in all directions, much'to. the danger of hb rider,
and all but preventing him from:getting Jnto the
saddle at all//When there, gbeotly to’my surprise,
Instead ofadopting ‘the “soothing system” with
hb horse, Bt.‘George-struck him sharply three or
four times .with the spqrs, irritating the horse nearly
to: madness, and causing him to rush through the
. gate with the speed of a whirlwind, nearly overset
tingthe other horses and their riders. The only
control appeared to exercbe oyer him
was te turn him away front the steward’s stand,
and he pursued his way down the bourse, literally
ftying'ovcVthe ground. The course, which was ad
mirably-kept bya. troop of the Soots Greys who
then quartered at Kilkenny} fortunately af
forded nofobstruotion' to his.terrible .cpreer; The

Cashel he’s a dead man,’ 1 rising infcoshoub of ad-1
miration as he was seen seated unfalteringly in his j
saddle, his horse-taking everything m'hls stride, I
without a', touch or a mistake. half
the, cpiirse' was -thus gone over, Btj( George
still apparently passive, when, to the'horror of
some and the astonishmentd'Hll/upOn approach
ing the most difficult leap of the whole, he was seen'
to gather uphls reins, take a pull at hb horse, and
turn his whip- upon him with all his force. The ;
jump be rode at being one of the most dangerous
sort pA a high rate of speed, deserves ,a passing de
scription. > It was what' b called *in Ireland a
iJ boreen”—a lane, generally used as a
cart-road-from one part of a farm to another, or as
a short but io the high-road, and having almost in
variably a high' thorn* fedoo on each s|de, with’
double-gripes,or ditohes tocariy off tho water, the
distance usually-from side to eid© being from
twenty-two to thirty feet,* a»<i Is generally crossed
in hontiug by jumping into the lane on ,one<side,
and From itinto theflcldon the other. To see aman,
therefore, instead of slackening hb speed at such
an obstacle, increase it, seemed almost , like insa
nity,' especially witto what seemed a runaway
horse. The horse, upon receiving tho blow of the
whip, could be seen, even from tho distance I was,
literally* bounding from the earth with rage and
pain. He rushed towards the lane with tho speed
of a cannon ball, and when Within four feet of it
rose In the air,' and, ’ incredible as it will appear to
some, cleared the whole space without touching a
twig, or unhorsing hb gallant rider! People drew
their breath moro freely, and gave vent to.their
suppressed feelings in a cheer which muethavo
been hoard by St. George, who was seen In a few
minutes cantering back towards tho starting
point, bimsetfand hb horse covered with foam and
perspiration, but the latter .apparently perfectly
sobered. As almost eyery one imagined hb horse
had.run away with him, few apologies were,neces
sary to' the Stewards, and, aftor a fow minutes’
delay, the horfoa were started for tho race.
.lasked.my friend-John, who was on theeoorso
driving his master’s family, what the ohanoes
were now for. 7 his answer was
significant and . satisfactory—“JJe the mortlal,
year honor, whin' I satf Mr. Sin George layon’ to
horse, ooihing to the Borcen, I thought some*
body’s nlok most be bruk } but when I saw him
land safe, I said to myself, ‘ Its a Boyne salmon to
a Waterford. hake’ an Whalebone; all ho
wanted was ,a little of the dlvil tuk oat of him,
h©!|i,gp as.paysable as a lamb,”
; And John prognosticated truly. The race was

(t He has returned in good health, excepting a
nervous affection, the result of long exposure to
tbo beat of the. tropics. After a cruise of
87,000 miles, during, which twenty-five foreign
ports were visited-—each twice and some three
times—she has returned, and that from some
ol the most unhealthy tropical stations, with
out the loss, of a man, and with a crew amonj
whom the good order and the unfrcquency o: 1
punishment were especially noteworthy. Much
of this latter rosult is attributed to the exam
ple and teachings of tli© Chaplain, whom Com.
W. characterizes as "peculiarly fitted” for
thlswork. We hope that the reader of the
Advocate may hear directly from Bro. Thomas
something of the varied experiences of his sea
and foreign life.’’
The Largest Giant in the World.
The Jackson • Whig gives the following addi
tional particulars of the weight and dimensions of
Miles Barden, who diod in Tennessee, a fow days
since:
“He was twice married. His children aro very
large, but probably none of them will ever be more
than half the weight of their father. He was quite
active and lively, and labored until about four
years ago, when ho beoomo so fleshy that he was
compelled to stay at home, or be hauled about iu a
two horse wagon.
“ In 1839. he made a contract with a tailor to
furnish him with a suit of olothes for sso—the
cloth was to cost $5. Upon measurement, it took
12 yards of cloth—so the tailor lost $lO and the
malting. The tailor states that three men, each
weighing over 200 pounds, put the coat on, but
toned. it around them, and' walked aorosi the
square at Lexington. In 1830, it took 13i yards
of flax cloth, yard wide, to mako him a ooat. It
took 10 yards of cambric for a shroud; 24 yards of
black velvet to cover tho sides ana lid of his
coffin; 125 feet of plank te make his ooffin.
“His coffin was eight feet long; across tho
breast, thirty-two inohes; across tho hoad, eight
teen inches; ucross the foot, fourteen inches; its
depth, thirty-flvo inohes. Ho weighed, in 1854,
eight hundred and seventy-one pounds. Ills height
was seven feet six inches. Ilis weight when he
died, as nearly as can be ascertained, was a frac
tion overouo thousand pounds.
A Touching Interview.
The -Washington (Pa.) Examiner relates the
following touching incident:—On Tuesday lust two
ladies from Maryland arrived In this place and
put up at the “Pulton House.” A short time after
their arrival; ,8 colored woman culled at tho house
and inquired* if Mrs. K. was thoro. Sho was in
formed that a couple of strango ludios wore in tho
parlor, and upon repairing thither tho inquirer
was-informed that Mrs. R. was present, when ahe
immediately lfcft. In’the course of-suhour or two
an old woman made hor appearance, and when she
met Mrs. R.= the recognition was mutual, and thoy
embraced each other ip a manner betokening' the
'■deepest l affection and most sympathetic! feeling,—
Mrs. R. had come,hundreds of miles fu? tho ’eape
cial'pnrppse of visiting her old slave, and the lat
ter in turn welcomed Her old mistress with a heart
overflowing, with gratitude for former kindnesses.
How we d»ro W that tho breust of Mrs. R. is the
sept of more gsnuine humanity toward the'Negro,
-than exists in the hearts of any score of Abolitionists
in vW&shinfeton bounty.

p.HOICE FARM LANDS FOR SALE—
vy THE ILTiINOIS CENTRAL RAILROAD COMPANY
is now prepared to sell about' 1,600,000 acres of choice
Farming lau 4b, in tracts of 40 acres and upwards, on
long credits, and at low rates of interest.
These lands were granted by the Government to aid
in the construction of this Road, and are among the
richest and most fertile in the world. They.extend
from North-East and North-West, through the middle
of the State, to the extreme South, and 1 include every
variety of climate and productions found between those
parallels of latitude. The Northern portion is chiefly
prairie, interspersed with fine groves, and in the middle
and Southern sections timber predominates, alternating
with beautiful prairies and openings.
The climate is more healthy, mild and equable, than
any other part of the country—the air is pure ana bra
cing, while living streams and springs of« excellent
water abound.
Bituminous Ooal Is extensively mined, and supplies a
cheap end desirable fuol, being furnished at many
point# at $2 to $4 per ton—and wood can be had at the
same rate per cord.
Building Stone of excellent quality also abounds,
’ which can be procured for little more than the expense
of transportation. . , ;
The great.fertility of these lands, which area black
rich mould, from two to five feet deep, and gently roll
ing; their contiguity to this road, by which every fad
lity is furnished for travel and transportation to the
principal markets North, South, Hast. West, and the
economy with which they can be cultivated; render
them the most valuable investment that ean be found,
and present the most favorable opportunity for persons
of industrious habits and small means to acquire a com
fortable independence hr a few years. j
Chicago Is now the greatest grain market In world;
and the facility and economy with which the products
of these lands can be transported to that market, make
them uueh more profitable, at thayrlces asked, than
those more remote at government rates, u the add!
tioaal cost of transportation Is a perpetual 1 tax on the
latter, which must be borne by the prodcoor, lit the re
duced price he receives for his grain, &e.* • , ,
The title is perfect—and when the final payments are
made, deeds are executed by the trustees appointed by
the State, and in whom the title is vetted, to the pur
chasers, which cpnvear to thorn absolute title*tafee sim
ple, fro 6 and clear of ewery incumbrance, lien mort
* fhe prices are from $8 to £}Q: Interest only Z per ct.
Twenty per ct. will be deducted from the price for cash.
, Those who purchase on long credit, give notes payable
In two, three, four, five and six years afterdate; and are
required to improve one-tenth annually for five years,
so as to have one-half the land under cultivation at the
end of that time. ,
Competent surveyors will accompany those who wish
, to examine these Lands, free of charge, and aid them in
making selections. -
The Lands regaining unsold are as rich and valuable
as those which have been disposed of.

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT —
NEW GAS CONSUMING FURNACE.
CHILSOtTS NEW CONE FURNACE,
after having been put to the most severe test, during
tho two Goto wirtbrS OF 1960 AXD 1857, has proved to
bo the most -powerful heater in the toorfrf, saving from
k to % the fuel over any of the best furnace* now in use.
Thrsb Porxaobs are constructed ’with a cast iron ash
pit, and a broad, shallow pan-shaped Are pot, lined
with fire-brick or iron stares. The fire pot is surmount
ed with
A SERIES OF OONEB, or TAPERING RADIATORS,
large and broad at their base, but tapering to small aper
tures at the top, and uniting with the auular chamber,
through which the heat and smoke pass tho tiue.
Tite whole products of combustion in tlio form of
smoke aud oases, are suspended directly over the fire.
confined or compressed into the tapering Conks and
continually exposed to the direct action of the rays
of host and light from tho fire.
This heat aud light is brought to a FOODS in baou
Cone, not unlike tho
COLLECTION OF THE BUN'S RAYS,
to a focal point through an ordinary lens, causing the
smokb and OASES to become intensely heated anu tho
roughly consumed, by this operation the smoke and
oases are mads equally available with the fuel
itself for heating purposes, while, in other furnaces,
it is carried off and wasted in tub cuihniy.
All porsous desirous or obtaining the besi and
MOST ECONOMICAL HEATING APPARATUS,
should not fail to examine the N RW Gas Consuming
Cone Furnace, before purchasing any other. The at
tention of architects and builder* is particularly re
quested. ARNOLD & WILSON,
