BABBIT'S LAST DREAM,
At lengthened shadows o'er the mead s
Proclaim the close of day, '
So whip or coons who will but tea&
May learn:the fate of Elm.
Last Sunday afternoon I took a walk to the "Sp
itin'
field Jockey Club" taco comae. I wesitudying &bra
the ungodly practice of horwiaclng,'lta evil teed:pas
cies—the ruin it has brought upon mill' it poor Ai ,
low—the drunkennesi and gambling that follows, in
its train. 1 had laid myself down "on . the man
earth, shaded by a tree, likenrfself, solitary and akwie.
I called to mind qll the flees I had over seen—and
that ever I had feed of. While my mind was thus
I wrapped iu contemplation, I fell asleep hod comment
cad dreaming, ns follows:
I thought I saw a race course that encircle...lth*
twenty-six States. Nyery body seemed to he talkies
about a match race that was about to- be run—bsia.
dreds were betting—and the whole country Uppts*d
to be in commotion. Directly 1 heard a great shout,
louder than seven thunders, saying, 'make way, make
way, here come the horses." 1 looked, and behold
two splendid looking horses were led to the trend.
One:m.oon Oldish looking horse, - and he was celled
"Harry of the West." The other was but a colt, and
was called " Young Hickory." Directly I saw the
two riders beautifully dressed. One was. ealkd Fre
lingbuysen and the other Dallas. Frelinghpyoue bad
on a blackliee kttewill Rig 34-Vet
lettered "Federalism"—and a pair of swiped breechee
lettered "Whiggery"—with coon skin legging.
Dallas was dressed in a suit of perfect white, and
the word "Democracy" tastefullyiaterworertin d Whits
• silk cap, with threads.of gold, .
Freelitighuysen rtiotutted “Hairy of the West," but
was required to early Iris • Saddle-bags full" of dead
weight, such as bank claariers, bankrupt notices, bloods
stained challenges, five hundred polls of girls , vials-
tad instructions, against foreigners: speeches
denouncing the settlers upon the luiblie lands as rob:
hers and pirates, and a cotton bale full of slanders
against Old Hickory, labelled, "war, pestilence, and
`famine."
Dallas sprang upon "Young Hickory," as quick as
thought, and come up to the starting post in fine style.
He had a whip in his hand lettered "eqoal rights,"
and a spur 'on the right foot lettered" Texas," and t
the left "Oregon." Every eye was now fixed oPols=
the tw.i horses, as the sewed of.a bugle aznionnesd
that-the moment for starting had arrived. The bts.
gle sounded again and they were of like a streak of
lightning.
As they passed through Maine the ghost Slf thO
murdered Cilley nee, shaking its gory locks, and sct
frightened the old horse, that his rider was well nigh
being thrown, "Young Hickory" crossed the fine"
of the State nine miles ahead of the old Wow. -
The young horse leaped over' the granite socks of
New Hampshire, with the speed of an arrow, gain,
ing sit miles more.
In passing through Vermont the young hone um! .
checked by the swamps •of abolitionism, while dim
old horse, being used to such swamps, gained ejw
miles.
They pass into the Bay State under whip and spur,
' but the northern winds chilled tbeblood of the young
southern horse, and by the "bargain, intrigue and cure
ruptiou" of John ( Adruns,the old bars* succeeded
by twelve miles.
They leaped into Connecticut neck and neck site
old horse taking the short route, over' the Hanfor4
Convention bridge, pointed out by blue lights, and left
'the young horse six miles in therms.
The old heave. cheered on by the Algerines, peaussi
through Rhode Island four miles ahead, crushing bl.
nouth his iron'hoofs the hope of a republiou coati*
tion, while the champion of liberty weeps, in +up .
gem.

Now the old horse dusts by Kinderhook: but the
.young Hickory gains upon bim every jump, *Lida n

leaving him THIRTY-SIX miles behind.
The rant through New Jersey was dose, the cider
