An Old American Jockey. Mark Ransom Walker lives at No. 81 Plane street, Newark, N. J. He is the oldest living native American horse jockey and trainer. He is 82 years old. He was bprn in Dover, near Boston, and rode running horses in races over 70 years ago. His father, who was a fa mous horse trainer, taught him to ride as soon as he could sit in a saddle. He has blue eyes, regular features, gray hair, mixed with a little browu, and a small but compact figure. His hands are palsied. "Ruunin' horses ain't what they was when I was a youngster," said Mr. Walker to a reporter, "for they ain't got the bottom now to run three an' four mile heats a couple of times in one afternoon. Seventy years ago horse men wouldn't give much for a horse that couldn't stand two or three four mile heats in a day. I'll never forget the great four-mile race, best two in three, heats of four miles each, between the North an' South, which come off at Craig's Point, near Boston, in 181-4. It was a blisterin' hot day, an' clouds of dust nearly hid the wagons and people that crowded the road between Boston an' Cambridge. Thousands of people crowded round the race course. The South had matched Watch Eye, a fine bay horse, agin Sam Purdy's fast Little John, a rattlin' runner. Rich planters planters backed their horse with their last dollar an' then put up their slaves agin the Northern men. A little darkey boy in a pink suit rode Little John an' a white boy was mounted on Watch Eye. Folks cheered like mad when the horses was brought out. Little John won the first heat by a length, an' he took the second heat easy. The Northerners won heaps of money. The next day Peace maker, Revenge, and two other good ones started in the three-mile race. Arthur Hyde, of Boston, owned Peace maker, an' the New England folks put their money on him. The New Yorkers an' Southerners backed Revenge, a New York horse, Sam Purdy wanted Mr. Hyde to let the darkey who won with Little John ride Peacemaker, but Mr. Hyde said he had a Yankee boy who could ride. I was a little brown-haired, blue-eyed lad then, an I had on a scar let suit. In front of the judges' stand Mr. Hyde lifted me into Peacemaker's saddle, an' the Boston folks cheered me till they was hoarse; Peacemaker knowed me, an' I knowed what he could do, 'cause I had often rode him. Revenge took the first and a brown horse the se cond heat. Then I let old Peacemaker out, an' I just slid right away from the other horses, and won the next two heats and the race. The Boston folks pulled me from the saddle, carried me on their shoulders, an' men pitched gold and sil ver pieces into my cap, an' the women kissed me. Bam Purdy an' Mr. Hyde gave me nice presents, an' all the news papers spoke about me. I was so light then that the men passed me over their heads on the track like a feather—l weighed olily 5-4 pounds. "I rode lots of 600 yards', half-mile an' mile races after that," said Mr. Walker, a satisfied smile playing about his thin hps, "an' I always won. With Calkin's Indian Chief, a fine black horse, Balkin's gray mare. They was both fast ones, an' the college students an' citizens made big bets. Then y#OTe fellers bought Decatur, from Commodore De catur, of New Jersey, an' beat all Bos ton's best horses. In 1816 The Pride of the South, a famous Baltimore pony, was brought to Boston under another name to beat Indian Chief, an' Mr. See ley, a great trainer, who owned Ameri can Star, timed Indian Chief on the sly. Then he an' his friends backed the Baltimore pony. The race was for 8300 the horses to start on the score, the dash being only a quarter of a mile. I rode Indian Chief, an' when I saw Mr. Hartwood, the starter, move his lips I put the spurs to Indian Chief, who won by half a neck. In 1816 Little John was bought by Mr, Warren, who took him an' 26 other runners to Halifax, where he was to ship them to the West Indies to run agin English horses. I was hired to ride Little John. The English wouldn't let Americans take racing horses to the West Indies, so Mr. War ren sold all the horses except Little John and two others, which we shipped to Kingston in the name of an English firm. We was 31 days at sea, and got to Kingston one day too late for the races, but Mr. Warren sold Little John to Major MeCrea, of the English Army, and he beat every horse owned by the other officers. I rode Cuban horses in Havana for a while, an' then went to Charleston, S. C., where I rode for planters at the races in New Orleans, Savannah, Macon, Raleigh, an' lots of other towns. The planters sent for me from every part of the South, an' I made a heap of money. At a great race meet in' in Concord, S. C., I rode the winnin' colts, overweights, in every race for four days. I rode an aged horse, full weight, for a planter named Dingwell, who had bet nearly all he was worth on the horse. He had never won a heat or race. Every body was surprised when I landed the old horse a safe winner. Anothei match was made for 8300, and there was great excitement. The colored jockeys was awful jealous, an' one of them, just as the horses was scored, shouted : ' That white Yankee won't win another heat or purse on this track.' He then ran away. I had the outside. In goin' round the back stretch my horse fell like a shot, an' I was picked up insensible. A white powder had been scattered on the track where the horse fell. Dingwell offered $25 for the oapture of the darkey who used the powder. All that night several hundred darkies hunted for him in the swamps, but he got away. I never knowed what the powder was, but the trick, was often played in the South. One jockey was killed by it. It was hot times OD race tracks in them days. I saw men shot dead for not paying their bete, and a duel was a common thing. Tliem hot-blooded planters would shoot as quick as a wink. In Charleston I once saw 21 negroes hung together on a gallows, an' 87 in one week. They had planned to kill the white men an' black women an' keep the white women for themselves. "Nearly sixty years ago I came to New York," continued Mr. Walker, "an' folks was goin' wild over American Eclipse, a horse that was never beat in a four-mile race. He was a sorrel, with a star, an' near hind foot white, 15 hands an' three inches high, an' had speed, bottom and strength. He was foaled at Dosaris, Long Island, on May 25, 181-4, and Giueral Nat Coles, his owner, sold him to Cornelius Van Ranst when he was five years old. Eclipse beat Sea Gull, Flag of Truce, Heart of Oak, Lady Liglitfoot ,*Bir Walter, Black eyed Susan, Fear Naught, Slow an' Easy, Dueliess of Marlborough an' Sir Charles an' Henry, the champion racers of the South, In the first race agin Sir Walter, the four miles was covered by Eclipse in 7:54, and in the second he done the first heat in 7:58. In Novem ber 1822, he was matched agin Sir \\ al ter, a Southern horse, but the owner of Sir Walter paid forfeit. Both the horses ran one heat for 81,500 a side, Eclipse winnin' with ease, makin' the first mile in 1:45. Then Col. Bill Johnson, of Petersburg, Va., matched Henry agin Eclipse for 810,000 a side. That was the greatest race between the North and South. Over 60,000 people went to the course on Long Island to see the race. Billy Crofts rode Eclipse in the first heat, an' Henry won it—the only heat Eclipse ever lost. Sam Purdy mounted Eclipse for the second heat. He was dressed in red. The people cheered him an' he made Eclipse win the race easily. The Southerners were cleaned out of money by that race. Eclipse's time was 7:37 in the first heat, 7:49 in the second, and 8:24 in the third, so that fie made the twelve miles in 23:50—a great per formance. Henry carried 108 pounds an' Eclipse 126, but he never ran agin. I trained him once after that to race with Bertraud, a horse from the South, but Bertraud didn't show up. In my opinion, no horse that ever lived could beat Eclipse in a long race. Iu 1824 the New York Jockey Club took Giueral Lafayette to Harlem to see Eclipse, an' they took four military companies along. I brought Eclipse in front of the hotel, but the music of the band excited him. The militia skedaddled when he jumped, an' 'Then I put him in the stable Giueral Lafi.yette made me go in the bar-room an' drink a glass of wine with him. I took charge of Henry in 1826 for Dr. Livingstone, of New York, who bad bought liim. Count Piper an* Lauoe were matched, an' Sam Purdy took four quarts of blood from Lance, so that Piper might have a show to win. Piper broke up on the home stretch, an' Lance happened to lie near enough to win. Lance an' Ariel, brother an' sister, was both raised at Flatbush. Fashion an' Boston had a great race on the Union Course, an' Fashion l>eat the time made by Henry and Eclipse. If I remember right, Fashion covered the four miles in 7:324. Billy Gibbon, of Chatham, N. J., raised Fashion. I fooled myself on that colt, Billy* Gibbou wanted me to train the colt ; but I had seen Billy on the track so long without winnin' that I refused, without seem' the colt. I wish I had taken his offer. But my days are numbered. Younger men are startin' the ruuniu' again. It's the only race worth lookin' at." l.ift* in high Altitun***. The greatest height to which men have ever mounted is about five and a half miles above the sea level, and the balloonists who ventured on that experi ment were very glad to come down. Short as their stay in the upper regions was, they were almost suffocated. The cold so benumbed their hands that, had they not taken the precaution to carry with them chemicals for the production of a little artificial heat, they would have become helpless and lost tlieir lives from inability to pull a rope and let out the gas of their air-ship. The air which they breath was too thin to support life, and they felt all the sensations of partial strangling or drowning. Of course any labor at such a height was impossible. The census shows that the elevation at which men can live and work to advan tage, and which they therefore generally choose, is a very low one. The average height of the United States above the sea level is about 2,600 feet, but the ele vation of the population is only about 700 feet. A height of 10,000 feet is con siderable less than two miles, yet of all the 50,000,000 of people in our country enly 26,400 live at that elevation. Not only men, but other animals and plants as well, find the struggle of exis tence harder as they rise higher. As plants and animals diminish in number, the means of supporting human life l ap idly decrease, so that the upward growth of population, so to speak, is checked long before the cold becomec too severe to be endured, or the air too thin for breathing. The bulk of the little band who reach a height of ten thousand feet are miners, and could be nothing else. More than three-fourths of the whole population choose to live at less than one thousand feet, or considerable less one-fifth of a mile above the sea, and on ly three per cent, of the inhabitants make their homes at a height of two thousand feet. If it were possible to walk upward from the earth readily as upon its surface, an ordinary pedestrian in half an hour oould pass the limit at which human life can be permanently maintained, and in little more than an hour he would reach a point where it could not exist at all. If the builders of Babel had ever scaled the mountains beyound their native plain no miracle would have been required to convince them that their impious enterprise was a waste of labor, AGRICULTURE. BAKI.EY FOR FEEDING. -In this country bar ley is used mainly lor brewing; in Europe aud Eastern countries it is fed to stock,par ticularly horses. As compaired to oats it is more nutritious and less heating. The product of an acre of barley is of more value as food for horses or other annuals than the product of an acre of oats of equal quality. The grain being harder when dry than oats, it cannot be consumed so well in a raw state, but if fed ground it should be soaked in water or boiled. When ground and fed in conjunction with cut fodder, there is nothing superior as food for work ing teams. Barley to keep the system open and the skiu soft, Bo long as our American farmers glow barley with no use for it in view but mailing, BO long will it be subject to extreme tluetuations in price, and the business a risky and uncertain one for the grower. But when the value of it for feeding stock is realized the markets will be stedier and the protlts of the crop more certain. Many farmers grow both barley and oats, the one to sell and the other to feed. It would be wiser, if the soil is gixal for barley—as most all soils are—to grow a portion at least for feeding purposes instead of oats. Ground barley is an excellent food for fattening hogs. We know from actual experience that horses will perforate as much labor when fed on barley as they do when fed on oats. During the Mexican war all the grain that horses and mules had from the time ! he army left Jalapa for the interior was barley and corn, but mostly barley. Cavalry horses as well as those used for teaming purposes, could not be in better condition than they were. INSTINCT OF PLANTS. —The root consti tutes the plant's mouth. Jt terminates in a little sponge. The sponge driuks up the moisture lrom tiie surounding earth. Everybody has seen in the woods the roots of some trees planted by the birds or the winds in the crevices of a rock, wandering down the sides of the great boulder in search of nourishment. l)r. Davy tells ef a case in which a horse-chestnut, growiug on a Hat stone, set out its roots to forage for food. They passed seven foot up a contiguous wall, turned at the top, passed down seven feet on the other side, found the needed nourishment there which their own barren home denied them. A yet more singular instance of this search tor fo-xi is related. A seed bad been droppdd by one of nature's husbandmen, a bird, in the decaying trunk of an old tree. It sprouted, put forth rK)ts, branches and a little stem. But its roots in vain sought nourishment to the hearts of its dyim r fo ter mother. At length abandoning all Lop jof support from her, they pushed out noui home to seek a liviug. They droped to the ground, a distance of sixty or seventy feet, and fasteuing there succeeded in se curing an independent livelihood. As time passed on the old trunk died, decayed aud disappeared. The new tree remained suspended as it were in midair, the roots proceeding downward and the branches upward from a point oqui-distaut between the two. EFFEOT OF Food ON c.ggs.—lt does not require much if auy extra understanding on the part of any one to really see how the flesh of a fowl fed on wholesome food and water should be better to tne taste than those fed at random, aud upon all manner of unwholesome food. This applies equal ly to the eggs also. Any one can test this, if he so wishes, quite easily, by feeding on slop food, or food of an unclean kind, such as swill and decaying cabbage. The flesh of such fowls will quickly tuint, and eggs will taste unsavory, at least to any one with an ordiuay pala'e. Fresh air has much also to do with this matter. No flesh is tit for ihe table which is not allow ed an unlimited quantity of pure air. if any person of ordinary discernment would consider the actual condition of highly stall fed animal of Christmas and other similar times of rejoicing, he would beguile easily satisfied that although to look at, the stall fed animal, which always lacks pure air, is the fattest, yet its flesh docs not agree with the stomach as does that of healthy, ordinarily-fed animal. Some may say that the extra fat does this. I say not, for I have quite often kept account, and thought I do not touch a morsel of fat, I was troubled afterward with a disordered stom ach, which never happened when I par took heartily of ordinary tine beef, both fat and lean. SULPDCR is a good disinfectant in houses and pig pens. Sprinkled on bushes and vines, it does much toward pn venting blight and mildew. Mixed with a liniewhite wash and applied to the trunks and limbs of fruit trees, it has a similar effect in preserving their health and thrift. Flour of sulphur used with a bellows early iu the spring, when an ounce of prevntion is worth a pound of cure, followed bp a repetition of the process as circumstances will decide, seems to be the general remedy for the grape mildew. give a horse a nice tine coat, feed him on any nutritious food, keep his skin clean, brush and lub the hair thoroughly, and often, keep him in a warm, comfort able stable, and in unusally cold weather blanket him. Blauketing will aid materi ally in given smoothness to the coat. There is no particular kind of food, drug or nost rum that will give a smooth coat to a horse, in the absenee of the above named con ditions, and with them no drugs or condi ments will be necessary. CABBAGE is best given to poultry whole, hung up by the stalk. At first it may not be touched, but when one fowl begins to peck at it the result will be temped to keep on until little remains. Being suspended, it does not waste or become polluted, and it will remain in good condition to be eaten at will. ONE hundred sheep hurdled on one ncre of land fifteen days will manure it sufficient ly for four successive crops. JTie Optogram. —Boon after Professor 8011, the eminent German physiologist, made the discovery that images of external objects remained on the retina of animals after they had expired, it was suggested that the eyes of persons who had been murdered, or had otherwise met with a mysterious death, should be examined in order to see whether the last scene was not impressed upon their retina. Borne clew might in such a case be found to the cir cumstances in which they had met their fate. The question has been exhaustively studied by Dr. Ayres in the laboratory of Professor Kuhne, at Heidelberg. Upward of a thousand experiments have been made by him, but all with poor success. The best results were got by exposing the eye of a living rabbit, which had been desed with atrophine, to a photographic negative of Professor Helmholtz. aud on examina tion the eye was found to retain an imper fect optogram of his nose and slnrt collar; but it disappeared in time, owing probably to the renewal ot the visual purple by the circulation of the living creature. To ex clude this effect Dr Ayres held the photo graph to the dissevered htad of a rabbit, and though the image obtained was more permanent, it was by no means distinct enough to warrant auy hope of the opto gram proving useful for the detection of crime.
