"cfe DON'T remember jnst what year it was," Mr. Heck said, "but it was before I came to Congress, when I quito a young man, that I was in New York oity. It was in the days when the old Tilooming dale road was a favorite drive of New York era with fast horses. Now, I liko fast horses myself, and I thought I had ridden behind some. One afternc'On I was up town, or what was at that tima up town in New York, and a gentleman camo along whom I knew. II is nam's was Capt. Noiris. Ite was driving a dreadful body and angular-looking mare.and when he askod mo if I would liko to take a Rest beside him, I wss almost ashamed to get in behind such a specimen of herse fiesh.? Still I knew Capt. Norris wss Rnmcthinz of a lovor of horses, and besides I couldn't in courtesy rcfuso him. So I got in. Tho fileepy-Fioeming old maro jogged along in a most tiresome way. Her head hung down, and it seemed as though it was all she could do to drag hor legs along. "We'll go up on the Bloomingdalo road if you don't mind," said tho captain, "and seo Borao of the steppers." "Well, that would bo pleasant enough,fdr I thought I would havo a chance to seo a brush or two between somo of tho noted horses of New York of that day. I said to tho captain that I almost wondered why ha wasn't out with a stepper himself, knowing how Tond ho. was of Inst driving. Ho said that he sometimes did tako a fast horso out, and I remember looking at tho dingy, bony maro, and feoling for the baptaih some of tho shamo which I thought ho oiight to havo felt for himself. T noticed, too, that tho people whom we passed, who recognized him Were storing at his mare.and I thonaht they were wondering liow it was that Capt. Nor ris was out with such a plug as that. ??By and by a noble animal passed us. The gentleman who was driving looking, as ho passed, around at tho Coptnin. I noticed that the Captain nodded, and that he took n littlo firmer grip of tho feihs. 1"he gehtlo mm slowed up a little, sufficiently to lot us pass. "Try It, Ocp," he shontcd. The Captain nodded. "I saw the roaro lift her head n litaft the prip and the reins tightened, and put some little animation into her feet. By and by we heard tho clatter of hoofs back of us. 1 looked around and saw that tho gentleman was coming nt a splendid pace. "See if ho passes us," said tho Captain, and he mado ooo chirrup to the roaro. "Gentlemen, I have seen transformation. I liavo seen tho old man in tho opera of 'Faust'changed in an instant to the hand sotajo young felloW. I havo seen a politician change his coat, but I never saw such n transformation as then happened. The roaro lifted head. Her oars no longer hang limp. They wore crect end tosrod back to catoli the sound of those approaching hoofs. Iler dingy body ftoW saoiued to gleam, knd her legs looked liko tho spokes of a rdpidly-re volving wheal. She was all fire, all anima tion, all eleotrieity. I could think of noth ing but a locomotive rushing along at. tho rate of a mile a minute. Heavens, how the wind cut my face ! "Look out for your bat, neck," said tho Captain, and I pulled it down over my cars. I glaoeed quickly at the Captain. He held the reins firmly and bis eyes were fixed ahead. Wo were plunged ahead on a whirl wind. I thought What a beauty tbat mare now is, and I thought there was only one end of it all?annihilation. I grabbed tho scat firmly with both hands, and t pressed my feet against the dashboard. Tho wind moaned in my ears, although we made the breeze ourselves, I could hardly breathe, I could not see, except away ahead. I knew we passed team after team, and I heard 4he people cheer. I shut my eyes. I thought the crash Would come. 1 would have begged the Captain to stop; if tho speed had not been so great tbat speech was impossible, t said to myself, James Beck, your day has come. Whcw-w-w ! How wo were flying ! Thero was no motion executing speed. We were flying over the road, hones afad riders, seemingly impelled by an Unseen,irresistible power. 1 opened my eyes once and saw some men away ahead waving their hats. In an instant we had reached and passed them,and as we went by, the three men mingled into one. When will this end? t Wondered. The suspense Was awful, i wanted Whatever was going to happen to happen at once. It seemed as though we had been an hotir rid ing, When the speed slackened, slower and slower, and at last the tnare stopped. I opened my eyes and saw tbat we were stand ing at a roadside inn. "Are you through, Captain 1 I tremb lingly asked. "Yes," ho said, laughing; "let's take a little Sata Cruz " "The Captain turned the mare over to a hostler, and went inside and I helped my self liberally. _ "Captain, yon gave me a great fright," I said. "I had no idea that mare conld go. Why she's fit to be a racer." "Yes, don't know But she if," gaid the Captain, nonchalantly. ADVERTISING RATES. ^?-TRANSIENT BILLS?CASII.
