Canada, the want of sup plies ^bir the pub*1
' lie service* through the r??fracV?ry conduct
of the Ldfcislaiure, ha?fhg compelled
drafts on the Eno|Hi Government, for the
current expenditure of th3 colony, which
bills have been sent to New York, us the
nearest and best money market* to-be,negotiated.
It is to theso, circumstance*, as
may be collected from the best private
letters, and not to any of the measures
expected from Gonsjress, that the improvement
of that money market is to ascribed.
It is remarked, however, that "the liquidation
of euapended debts cannot proceed
very rapidly lor some months to come ; |
our debts at home and ahmml mu?i Ku
paid out of the vniious products of our
own soil, and until they com-e freely to
market, it is idle to expect that much pro?
gross can be made toward lessening the
large amount of engagements." The anticipation
of any substantial relief from
Congress is generally ridiculed by men of
sense and experience, and it is observed
that "there is no way to set things right
but to leave them tcr regulate themselves,
I which they will very quickly do so soon
4 as our cotton begins to move toward u
market." The calculation is, that if Liverpool
and Manchester can afford to give
6d per pound for American cotton, that*
alone will "suffice to bring matteis round, i

GREAT RACE.
THE SOUTH VICTORIOUS.
\Ve received by yesterday*.- Rx press
Mai), a slip from the oflire of the New
York Spirit of the Times, giving a lengthy
account of the result of the rare which
recently came oft' over the Union Course,
Long Island, for the $1000 purse-?four
mile heats?for which tne following horses
were entered :?Lady ClilTden, I'irtou,
Fanny Wyatt and Mingo. A', and previous

was oil" his legs. Funny YVyntt was the
second choice?very few giving Lady
CiiHUcn or Picton a thought: hut the running
of both the last mentioned horses, no
doubt, surprised our N ?rthern folks, and
after this they will be u little careful how
they put up on the Northern crack nags
wticn two Southern colts are on -the
field.
The following is the result of this interesting
face, which, from the accounts
given in the extra before us, was well
contested front ' the beginning to the
end:?
Col. J. M. Shelden's Lady
Clitfden, 4 years old, 4 11'
Col. Winn's Picton, 3 years I
old, " 14 3

4 years old, 3 3 2!
Geneal Irving's Mingo, 6
years old, 2 2 4,
Time?7 41-7 43-2-7 firt-4. I
In speaking of the race, the Editor of!
the Spirit of the Times says:?44 The |
shouts of thousands arc still ringing in our
ears, as wc employ the brief time before
the mails close in giving our distant readers
a few hurried details1 of the most
splendid race ever made in America ! The
laurels won" by the Eclipse have been torn
from his brows bv Lady (Midden of the
South. The victory was nobly won. Every
inch of ground was so dcspeiately contested,
that next to winning, the greatest
pleasure in life appeared to be in losing.
Three of the nonpareils entered?Picton,
Lady Clilfdcn and Fanny Wyatt?.vere
in condition to run for a man's life, and
three better nags were never stripped on
a race track. Mingo, the fourth entry was
complaining, the ten Ions in his near fore
leg being much swollen, but, 44 us he was .
entered, and start he must if on tlir''e
legs," remarked bis gallant owner in the
morning. Hereafter we will attempt a
description of the race; after the intense,
excitement attendant upon it has subsided
?an excitement in which all participated
-we hope to bo better prepared to give
the particulars of a contest, to which no1
pen can do adequate justice. It was a
race that will be remembered by each of
the thirty thousand persons who witnessed
it, to their dying dying day, ami its history
will go down through all time as one of
the most fiercely contested and glorious
victories ever achieved by a high mettled
racer and his honest rider !** I
VVc should like to see Lady ClifTdrnJ
Picton, and some of the Northern craek
nags, on the Lafayette or Hampton course!
this fall or next spring. We have n few i
horses here that can make tracks as fast as I
any of them?and that can put them up
to all they know. Hammond (of Basc'ome
memory) says is it not genteel to
whip a man' more than once on his own
liill, or else he would go after them, but,

Extract from the argument of a young
lawyer before a Mississippi Justice:
"May it pleaie the Court?I rather live
for thirteen hundred centuries on the
small end of a thunderbolt?chew the
ragged edge of a fla h of lightning?swallow
the corners of a Virginia worm fence
and have my bowels torn out by a green
briar hush, than to be bamboozled by the
gentleman."
A Keal Patron !?Wc sec it stated,
thai Wade Hampton, Ksq. of South Caro-,
Ii 11.1. not long wince paid the proprietor of
the N. Y. Spirit of the Times one hundred
years sdpscriplion in advance,
amounting to five hundred dollars. This
genteel thing is said to have been done to
save the publisher the trouble of sending
for his dues, and Mr. Hampton the trouble
of filing his reeepls. It was doubtless
a delicate mode adopted by him of contributing
substantial aid to a paper in the
success of which he fell an interest. The
same liberal gentleman performed a similar
flattering act towards the National Intelligencer;
'but thinking, probably, that
the editors were not as likelv to flourish
for a century as the more youthful edit r
of the Times, he did not cxlcu I his subscription
