and the ladies and gentlemen on the stand. Messrs Lundon and'Barr had purchased bars Nos. 1 and 2 respectively, and dispensed re freshments to all and sundry. We never saw arace-oonise so clear of those questionable amusements which are usually regarded as pertaining to such events. me sound of "under and over seven was not heard on the ground, and no swell invitations were held out to throw a ring over a pin. Probably this is owing to the action of the police in suppressing at previous meetings such games, but it certainty made the course somewhat dull during tho interval between the races, and left to the bars the exclusive task of providing amuse ment. Shortly before the bell rang for the first race a shower commenced, and lignt rain continued to fall during the day.

Next to being married to the right person, there is nothing so important in one's life as to live nnder one's own roof. There is some thing more than a poetical charm to the wife : "We have our cozy house ; it is thrice dear to us Because it is our own. We have bought it with the saving of our earnings. Many ' were the soda fountains, the confectionery saloons, and necessities of the market we had to pass ; many a time my noble husband denied himself comforts, wore his old clothes and even patched his own boots ; and I, 0 me! made my old bonnet do; did the , plainest of cooking ; saving was the order of the hour, and to have a home of our own was the united aim. Now we have it. There is no landlord troubling us, raising the rent, exacting this and that. There is no fear harbored in our bosom that in sickness or old age we shall be thrown out of house and home." What a lesson do the above words, teach ! and well it would be if hundreds of , fanuliea would heed them, and instead of living in rented houses j which take a large share to furnish, and a quarter of their earn ings to pay their rent; and the rest to eat accordingly, would bravely curtail expenses and concentrate their efforts on having a " home of their own." Better a cottage of your own than a rented palace. Coffee.—Brown, Barrett and Go's. Standard Coffee is both delicious and strong. Brown, Barrett and Co. 's Excelsior Coffee deserves .preference to any coffee on account of purity and distinctness of flavour. Note the brands. Sold at almost every grocery establishment in town and province.—[Advt.] Dr. Bright's Phosphodyne.—Multitudes of People are hopelessly suffering from Debility, Nervous ard Liver Complaints, Depression of Spirits, Delusions Unfitness for Business or Study, Failure of Hearing, Sight, and Memory, Lassitude, Want of Power; &c, j whose cases admit of a permanent cure by the new J remedy Phosphodyne (Oxonic Oxygen), which at once aUays all irritation and excitement, imparts new enert,/ and life to the enfeebled constitution, and rapidly cures every stage of these hitherto incurable and distressing maladies.
