There was a large attendance this afternoon to witness the attempt of Maud S to beat the re cord of 2.11. The weather was pleas ant, but there was a strong east wind. The first event was the 2.30 race. Calamus was a strong favorite and took the three heats easily, Mary Miller second and J. W. Thomas third. Time, 2.27, 2.2?, 22$. The second race, for 2.50 class, was won by Kate Sprague, Donald second, Almo and Misery dis tanced. Time, 23, 2.28, 2.26, 2.24. The appearance of Maud S. on the track to trot against time for $2,500 was a signal for hearty applause. Her first heat was merely made to warm her up, and as she left her feet several times it was made in 2J26- The first quarter of her second heat was made steady in 33 SBConds and then she was cut loose for her best speed, making the half mile in 1.04. Her driver sped her at an undiminished trait to the three-quar ter pole, which was reached in 1.36. Coming home there was scarcely less excitement than when the record was lowered in the summer meeting, for it seemed certain that she would make the mile in 2.11 at least, but she left her feet when but a few yards from the wire and the heat was spoiled. The watches did not seem to agree, those outside of the stand making her time 2.10 to 2.11 while the time announced by the judges was 2.11. StJulien had a narrow escape at Kalamazoo last' night The car on which he was traveling with two at tendants was ditched at that point by a misplaced switch. Luckily he landed on his feet and was not hurt In and About Wattniagten. " Correspondence Bait Sun. Washington,. Sept. l6.Whether justly founded or ; not, suspicions are f reel v emressed that there is doctorinir of the returns in the interest of the Re-1 publican candidates going on in some of thd back townships, of Maine, But the prestige iand the moral effect have aireaay oeen gameru, in, anatne ne- Eublicans could hdt now be benefited y anjf such " doubtful proceedings. About the most quiet official' in town just now is Mr. KaurrJJ the commission er of internal revenue." He went up to Maine to make campaign speeches, and was consianwy teiegvnuaurg uacK , to Washington accounts' -or the enthus iastic meetings he was 'addressing and predicting an immense Republican ma jority. . . Secretary Sherman says he; will net at any . rate make any . more stump speeches before thipctoher elections. He says that his speeches are mainly of a statistical character, and he does not think that kind. undpiLthe circum stances, will be of particular Advantage in Ohio or Indiana. In fact, he has al ready gotten them off in those states. Mr. Wm. E. Chandler a week ago. when it waslhought that ex-Representative Jones would not bcL nominated for Governor of New Hampshire, said the contest in that State would be yery close, and the Republicans ould only carry tbe State Tby hard work. Now that Mr. Jones, who is immensely popu lar, nas been nominated, the Democrat ic politicians have added, Hew Hamp shire to the certain Democratic States in November. It is understood that since the Maine election a second assessment has been levied upon the departments clerks and goyernment employes, and in addition a confidential circular addressed to business men has been prepared and sent out It asks for contributions on the ground that stability and business prosperity can only be maintained by the election of Garfield. New York Republican politicians are whispering that there is a big scheme on foot for the capture of that State. They intimate that Johnny Davenport has resigned his position as clerk of the United States Circuit Court in order that he may devote his whole time and his well-known talent to the working up of the scheme. Senator McDonald, of Indiana, was here to-day, fresh from Indiana. The Senator reiterates his perfect confidence in Indiana going Democratic next month, and says the entire party is harmonious, united and enthusiastic. Concerning; Suicide Saturday Review. The condemnation of suicide among the ancients was halting and intermit tent at best Pythagoras expressly tor bids it, on the ground recognized by christian and theistic moralists gener ally in later times, that no one h?.s a right to depart from the position where God has placed him : and Plato indorses his prohibition, though in a less abso- i.. -nm a it--i-K. based on the duty of citizens to the State. Plutarch considered it cowardly and unworthy of the dignity of man : the Neoplatonists condemned It asin volving a perturbation and' therefore pollution of the soul; Cicero condemns, but stultifies his censures by his excep tions ; Marcus Aurelius wavers in his judgment; Seneca openly applauds, and the whole stoic school followed him"; Pliny more than approves. And popu lar opinion under the Roman empire was5, to say tne last entirely tolerant ot suicide, which , was freely practiced and not only by Stoics who had Cato for their great exemplar. Lucretius, Cassius, Atticus and Fetronius Arbiter may be named as conspicuous instance?. ao oeneca ins opuon ox suiciae auuearr eptembei '"" i lie, 1 w nit, v .

It was wib strange feelings that the writer, ross int the Pacific having gone to bed Ofl .Saturday night leaving everything per- taUllUK tO lliO.aiUXeUlciU 1U a iMUdioUV4 J condition, awoke on Monday morning! Sunday had completely uro our calendar, for that wee Evervone knows that in traveling round the world from East to West a day is lost and in order to adjust his recKoning to tnat or tne piace ne nas left, one must drop a day as if he had not lived it when in reality the time has passed by lengthening every dy during the journey. For a long time it was the custom for sailors to effect this chance pretty much where they pleas ed; but it has now become a settled rule among American and English navigators that at the 18th degree a day must be passed over if going West, and one added if going East, in'which latter, case the traveler enjoys two Sundays Or two Thursdays as the case maybev It Js most likely that this particular de gree was decided on from the fact that, except a fett'tcattered islands of Poly nesia,, there are no large communities, with their 'vast" commercial and social transactions, f to beT affected by the change. :. . Stituted a suDerioritr in the lot of man over that of the Deity, that he could at any moment bring his existence to in end ; Epictettus thought it cowardly t0 live on when life had become irksomi from weariness or disease, and on this principle the poet Silius Italicus starv ed himself to death. In Stoical teach ing suicide was not merely permissible, but a virtue, and was deliberately prac ticed as such. It has been justly observ ed that "the doctrine of suicide was the pped from l enlminatine point of Roman Stoicism,? SfgEtfl ik at least I asl illustrating the proud, self-reliant, I wittkowsky unDenamg character or tne true pnuas opher, whose boast it was to hope little and fear nothing. Life and death in the Stoical system were attuned to the same key. The deification of human virtue, the total absence of all sense of sin, the proud, stubborn will that deem ed humiliation the worst of stains, ap peared alike in each.
