And to our mindr affords additional of the fallacious test of time, ng a horse in so high.a niche-in the tempe of flame, when every ad:venti iqns.aid is brought to bear in his be f.C. On the other hand, none but a .ery: good horse, under any circun stances, could run two heats in the 'ine which our summary will show; rWill it detract from their present Weition, to support our proposition in 10 ation to qviek time not being a test f capiability, by citing the proofs to maintain it. Every one fnailiar with Louis.d'Or's perfbrmances will at once agree that he could have run another Uile yesterda in 1.55, i'n either or lioth heats, w ich would have made the-race, supposing at four mile heats, 7.31 3-4!-7.30! rather lively! This udld have out-Heroded Herod. Reel, in her palmy days, and they tre all palmy but the best one, never a heat under 7.40. George Mar - tlniwho beat Reel in the only race she ever met a foe worthy of her steel, did so, it was generally believed, by the accident of her leg giving way, - vr track not as qutick as yesterday's 9? '.7 43. Miss Footo, "the ~it41e steel strap," ran in 7.35 her best heat. All these named lived and shone together. Subsequently Verifier ap. peared. He won at all distances, and but onee ran under 7 40. Peytona, who, 'who beat the world-renowned Fashion, never ran but one heat in the name time that Verifier made, 7.39 3-4, Aud that race the New York Spirit of the Times pronounced the best ev er run. We might cite numerous oth er instances in support of our opinion, bt have perhaps given enogh. Will any turf'man, or any one else in his senses, have the temerity to say that -either of the contending nags in yes. terdao's race cotuld have lived a min ute with the horses named above? In endeavoring to establish our the ory, wve have wandered fr-om the legiti -mate matter. The race was beauti * , ful beyond description. The attend ance was numerous; the day wvas charm ing indeed. The course in the most perfect order we ever beheld it; and it might seem superfluous to say that all the horses strip~ped perfect pictures. Fwmsr HEAT.--A beautiful running start, Clara in the lead, Louis d'Or lhe hind, all at a good turn of speed-the positions during the first mile uun changed, and also the second mile, bt the close observer could notice a slight duerease of speed. On recaching the back-stretch of the third m'ile, Pieka way made play, and a beautiful con test ensued. Clara opened a slight gap uopon him at the half mtile, btut he renewed the contest with such vigor that she was obliged to yield "the track," in rounding the turn previous ~to comin into the last stretch. Louis, ~ who had been gradually imtproving his position, nriadle desperate play down the - tretch. The run home cauzed great .expitement. Louis almost lapped him 'after passing the drawgates, and but for, hIs unfortunate peculiarity ofecling ing to the inner side of the track, it was thought by many he would have won the heat-ats it was Picka 'way only, beat 1im by about three feet in 5,36 4-4. We forgot to mention, that pr-evious toisarting Louis d'Or- was favrito a gainst the field, 100 t0 80. After the loss of the heat the betting was tun changed, save that Louis' friends were more ardent. Pickaway's rider, Mtr. Stephen Wtelch, an excellent rider, who rode Gre) Eagle in his celebrated races with Wagner, found himself unable ont ae %unt of his weakness, to manage the iorse to do him justice, and Abe, Col. ingaman's boy, was substituted in his place. SaioND IIhAr.-We conufess our in ability to do justice in describing this heat; It was a continued brush fromt the beginning to its close. Pickawayv took the lead, determined to muainutaih it throughbot, Louis d'Or close upon him, equally intent of depriving him ~fhis laurels. Around the first turnu they' wer-elapped; uip the back stretcht ayay they went like twint bullets, a -' short pull aroiund the turn, and into the he)mo streotch, at it they rattle awuy. IPlckaway seems to otutfoot him, lbut - e renews the battle with unceasing e~ffort, the second mile being a repiti nt~ of clie first. T1hme excitemenut of fze itinitude at this point knew no. bsounds, and it coul onl-y fmnd relief 411 shouts, which made the very hecav ens e0cho back the sound.

Nlence did not accompany. The grey evi. dently gave it up when hO was lapped, and Louis came home an easy winner in 5:35. Acharge of foul riding was made against Pickaway's -ider, but was not sustained. The lecture given the rider, however, was "some." Third- heat.-Clara was withdrawn. Louis.took the lead and kept it through out in 5,47,1-2. BUMMARY. Thursday, Ap)ril 7.-Jockey Club Purse $500-Thre mile heats-Entranuce 10 per cent added. D. F. Kenner'u d. h. Louis d'Or, by imp.

Since experience has fully dteon strated that Railroads are destined to become the principal means of inland travel and transportation from point to puint,. throughout the United States es. pecitlly, it mnay be well to consider what bearing the construction of Rail. roads may have upon the value of lands (frains particularly,) through whtelh they may pass; and what ef feet the extension of these facilities of transportion must have upon the price of produce at hoine. .Farmers are often called upon to grant the way for those roads, and many hesitate to do so, fearing that they will be loosers rather than gain ers, thereby. To such, in addition to the article in our colunns upon "The Illinois Central Railroad," where the subject is incidentally touched upon. we would commend the following ar ticle from the Newark, N. J. Mer. cury, to their special attention: "It has been estimated, by those whose observations has qualified them to judge correctly, that the increase in the value of a strip of land three miles wide, through which a Rail road is constructed, is sufficient to build nnd stock it. The experi. ence of the whole country has proved that this estimate is not ex. trayagant. Every mile of a strip of land three miles wide, one and a half miles on each side of the road, will contain 1,920 acres. The average in crease in the price of such a strip of land, has been not far from *15 an aere, in new and thinly settled dis tricts of country, it has - been- much more in many instances. This would be equal to $20,000 increase to ev ery mile of road; or in other words, if the ibrmners or owners of this strip of country should themselves build the road, their land would be worth enough moure to pay the whole expense ofecon struction, and they would own the road besides. If railroads, therefore, conferred no other benefits upon far~m ers than this great addition to their wealth, they will see that they are miore deeply interested in their con struction than any other class of' the comm unity. They receive a direct, po0 sitive, tangible advantage in the im. mediate rise in the value of their pro. perty. "lBut there are other advantages to the ferming interest beside the rise in the value of' their farms. The pro. ducts of a fhirm situated at any coni. siderable dlist ance from a miarket, where ordinary roads hauve to be depended upon, are of value to the prod-ucer, but railroads at once give thenm a ready ac cess to market, at gouod prce and quick sales. The ex perience of farm ers necar the great centre of popula tion, is a snflicient proof of the great audvantage~s of railroad.s in this p)oinit of view. Indeed, no one has doubt of' it. The reasons tin' it are too obvious to n~ed proof' or argiument. Now, it' this be truth, and there can be no donbt of' its veracity, does not it precsent an; unianiswerable3 argumnen tin faivor. not onliy of' the farimers grant inig the righ t of way, bu-t rlso of his beomiing, to the extent of his means a shareholder in the roatds of h~is neigh borhtood? If a fourmer owns 100 acres of' land, worth $8 or $1 0 per- aere, anid the construcetinig of' a r'ailroad thirouigh it wotild increase its value from two thirds to double its or'iginazl cos.t, what would be thloughit of himt shotild lhe refuse the right of' way on stich r'oadls? WeT trust there are- tbw such iu'rncers in this enlightened age.

SOULt AND CunA.---It is generalle believed that Senator Soule, before ie cepting the mission to Spain, obtainet an assurance, from the Exceutive, tha he should have unlimited pewers fib the purchase of Cuba. If this mean! that lie goes out, virtually as a minis ter plenipotentiary, without any re striction as to tho terms which he m1a3 promise Spain, but with the reserva tion that the Government wii now consider itself bound to ratify suel pledges, unless agreeable to itself, w, have no doupt that it is true. But i the unlimited powers are to be under sthod as binding the United States tA accept any treaty he may tegotiate we regard the rumor as an exaggera tion, if not a complete f'alsi lication. It has never been the practice o this republic to place itself' in the hand of a single individual, with dictatoria powers to pledge it for anyv amtountt o money, or of' any specific line of con duet. We presume that Soule goe: abroad with the understanding that he is to get Cuba it' lie can, on certait specifled terms, but that if he canno obtain the ishmiwd ont these terms, h<. may exceed them, t he goivernmtent promnisitng to sustaitn himn with an' reasonab lle bun ds. This' howe ver is a very diferenit thting fromn thte pop utiar idea of unlimited powers.
