Spt?cial to Tin- Journal. •.••• NKW Ross, Aug. 8.—The first day of the races was crowned with success, as far as the races were concerned. The attendance was small, only about five hundred being present to see some of the finest events that ever occurred on this race course. S. \V. Foster, of Montelair, acted as starting judge and Will Webster. John Foster and Jesse Tomlinson were the official timers. Que Allen, the great Montgomery county trotter, won his race in straight heats, trotting the last half of the third heat in 1:07. Julius Ciusar won a great race. The time was slow but the broken heats made it the more interesting. The summary of the first race is as follows: 2:r0 TIIOT. .lulius C:iar, s.

At her father's home near New Market, on Monday, Aug. 5, Eva. daughter of William and Mattie Gott, passed away. She had been sick since April, her disease being hasty consumption. Two years ago she was graduated from the public school. Possessing marked ability she was urged to become a teacher by those who felt sure of her success in that profession. Her home ties, however, were too strong to be broken in that way. Indeed few parents are blessed with a daughter so obedient and devoted. People often remarked, "How kind Eva is to her mother." Her merry heart, lovipg disposition and forgetfulness of self gaiued her many friends 1oth old and young. Death is always sad but this seems unusually so. She was only eighteen, but she brought a world of sunshine into the now darkened home. Cultured and beautiful, well calculated to shine in society, but like the true woman she was, her sweetest smiles and kindest acts were for home. Shall we think of her as she lay in her last sleep, with no trace of pain on lip or brow—folded hands, "My work is done." Shall we think of her lonely wind-swept grave on the hillside. Shall we not think of her with a song, a harp and a white robe, led by the Good Shepherd in the green pastures beside the still waters of salvation. The bereaved parents have our sympathy. We pity the sorrowing brothers and sisters. Bright eyes weep for her, tender hearts mourn her. Farewell, dearest Eva, a last farewell. "For where thou art gone adieus and,Jfarewells area sound unknown."

It is Miss Bessie Houston, aged ten years, and her work is speedier and more perfect than that of most adult stenographers, riaid F. L.
