Breeding Horses.
The last number of the Journal oj tJr
Royal Agricultural Soemty contain ; an ar
ticle on breeding horses from tho pen oi j
W. Dickinson.
Horses, he ways, should be bred upon a
dry subsoil to make them sound in consti
tution, sound iu wind, and sound in color,
by which be means tbat whatever bo the
horse's color, it should be a deep, not a
faint one. The surface, moreover, should
be fertile; abounding in carbonate and
phosphate of lime, to grow horses of full
size, with plenty of bone and inn ele.—
T'pon this and this surf-tec, you
may expect si mid, full-sized, healthv ani
mals. A wet. spongy, clay soil produces |
delicate constitutions, defective wind, pale
colors, and large, flat feet.
He advises selecting lu.-irei f>r breed ing. i
when three years old. They are more
free defects, cost less, and breed bet
ter than when older. lie very properly |
contends that none l-i if the best marc
should be selected.
Mr. IV says he formerly thought ther
were no better cart horses in the world
than Uie English; but in 15.".~> lie atlen
ded the International Exhibition in Pari '
where he bad sent some Shorthorn cattle.
'•There," he says, "my attention was at
tracted to a class of horse, T had never :
seen before. I looked at them and w.a
tistonishod, seeing' tlieni drawing treat j
long carts, as long as tlieEnglish wagons,
loaded with immense blocks of stone (no:
as ours are loaded in London wuh two or ,
tlirco blocks.) walking- nimbly away thel
whole day from the pit to the buildii. .
These immense load of sVne made in
think of the three to !'mr dray-h •
drawing at a nuieb -lower | "0 a few bus
of beer through the London streets. —
These horses, walking so nimbly with it,
great loads of stone, were notso fat as oui'
own favorites, but they seemed to be do- '
ing twjco the work. Although leaner,
they boro the strictest scrutiny ; the more 1
T saw them the more 1 admired them.—-'
Meeting Mr. Jonas Webb. 1 called bis
attention to them, lie laid he bad nevor t
seen such before; he hail observed a 1
horse taking into the show yard an im
menso load of provender for the cattle,
that astonished him beyond measu'v; be !
bad resolved to try to buy him. but be ;
lost sight of him that day aad never saw
him afterwards. I thought them so su
perior to ours, that I resolved to buy one
to take, home."
After considerable trouble lie suecee- j
ded in finding one, called ".Napoleon," and j
says:
'•I have never once regretted the pur
chase. lie has been worked on my farm
ever since, almost always with mares. I
have never had so good, quiet, active,
and powerful a horse before. In no one j
instance lias be given us any trouble.—-'
He is unlike our English cArt-hor •s. for
with great size. (V :teeu and one-half
hands high) and immense substance, lie
shows a dash of blood. He has an Ara
bian head, not small, but of line charac
ter, well proportioned to his size. Tlie j
neck is very muscular and well turned. :
the shoulders large, very deep, without
lumps on the sides, and oblique, such in
shape as would not be objected to for a
riding horso. The bosom open, the fore
legs magnificent and very short, with
great bone, hard sinews, and with but L
little hair upon them. His feet are per- j
feet in shape, and perfectly sound in work;
his back short, rathered dipped, round '
shaped ribs, large loins, rather jilain dro >:>- i
ing hind quarters, very large thighs, low
down, and tightly jointed together with
prodigiously powerful clean hock.- , ami
very short hind legs, well under him.—
Wo never had a difficulty with the engine
or thrasher, or with anything in the mud
that Nap. could not extricate us from.—
His stock arc as good and kind as possible
It is a saying with the men that Nap.'s
colts want no breaking. My mare are
small and active; the stock arc considera
ble larger than the damsj but so cleanly,
that as foals they look more like carriage
horses.
"I think the cart mares to work and
breed should be of moderate size, from
fifteen and one-half to sixteen hands.—
The.y should be long, low, wide and hand
some, compactly made, with short backs,
arching downwards, and v.i:h wide table
shaped loin. The legs should be short
and clean, the 'bone large, especially bo
hind. They should be good walkers, and
as I recommend working the mares on the
farm the high stepping action must not
be overlooked.
'•"When the foals arc weaned in the au
tumn, they must have shelter and bo well
kept. A few oats, cut roots, cut bay and
a little bran, will do for them till they go
to grass in the following summer, during
which time tlio colts must be castrated.—
In the winter they may again be kept in
the shods. They should never be allowed
« to get poor. They will bo useful at three !
years old, and do half the work of horses
if kept in a cool, well ventilated stable." !
In regard to carriage horses he says
ino:o attention must be paid to fine beads
and necks than is necessary iu the case of i
cart horses. They may be bred from mares
that can do the work of the farm j
thoroughly well. They should be well i
selected and the high stepping action no!
overlooked. Such niHrea eroded w : ha j
t horoughbread horse produce excellent
I carriage horses. The colts must not be
j neglected in thei» early keeping. If they
j are starved when young and afterwards
( fomd by high feeding, strangles, di.-tem
per, roaring lameness, etc., will bo the
! result.
Mr. Ib thinks saddle horses should
have tho back bone slightly arched, while
| draught horses should be rather hollow
backed. He thinks this very important.
Mr. D. thinks that while great improve
ment has taken place in cattle, sheep and
pigs, thoroughbred horses have retrogaded. ,
lie attributes this in a great measure to
the fashion of running horses when two
| or three years old. and to their being re
quired to carry only light weights. He
.says:
| '-.I saw the commencement of the evil; j
. I now sec the consequence. There was
! no longer any inducement to breeders to ,
1 retain their great strong two year old colts;
; they could not run at that ago, neither
i could at three years old struggle with
! moderate sized horses. The best horse
ever produced in England could not race
I at two nor at throe years old; be fras not j
only the fastest and stoutest of any pei i l j
but lic'wns one of the most powerful; this
hoi ♦vas Eclipse. If ho had been of!
I these days, in ail probability his fate
| would have been settled at three years old;
lie would have been sold as a great slow j
brute to some foreigner, doming among us
j to make purchase*! st a small sum, as most .
•of our large sized, unfurnished horses !
have been, till there is hardly ono left."
lies - they have now "two el:i =es of
; horses—blood horses without sub. lance.
: ami strong horses without blood. Both
i are bad fur common purposes."
•Our eaualry must feel this wonderful i
, falling oh". If they should be again |
brought to contend with some hostile pow
! er, it will be scon that although wo have
; not lost-the steel of our men we have lost
! the chcrgy of our horses. Let it not be
overlooked that blood gives pace; and pace
is power. Blood carries weight; it is said
i that a thoroughblooded boTSO carrying
I thirty-two stone four miles beat the best j
I and strongest horse that could be found, !
r not thoroughbred. Wood gives life; the
thoroughbred horse lives. 1 rin work

oft' wofttlly since the battle of \Y atcrloo; j

I opposed to us"then, have been as much

' FARMKUS. —AiIiyn was a farmerwliile
lyet iu Paradise, and -after bis fall,
commanded to earn his bread by the
sweat of his brow.
Job, the honest, upright and patient,
1 was a farmer, and his endurance lias
passed into a proverb. .
Socrates wa a farmer, and yet wed
ded to his calling the glory of his im
mortal philosophy.
St. Luke was a farmer, and divides
i with Prometheus the honor of subject
j ing the ox to the use of man.
Cincinnatus was a farmer, and the
J noblest Roman of them all.
Burns was a farmer, and the Muse
found him at the plow, aud filled his
soul with poetry.
Washington was a farmer, and retir
ed from the highest earthly station to
L elijoy the quiet of rural life, and pivs
i out to the world a spectacle of Human
| greatness.
To these may be added a host of
others who sought peace and repose
Sin the cultivation of their mother
: earth; the enthusiastic Layfayette.the
stedfast Pickering, the Scholastic Jeff
j erson, the fiery Randolph, all found
: an Elderado of consolation from life's
care and troubles, in the green and
verdant lawns that surrounded their
homestead.
X£3uTaverns have very little chan
ged if this sketch of one, by good
Bishop Earl, made in 1(128, is not
overdrawn:
"A tavern is a degree above an ale
house, where men are drunk with
more credit and apology. If the vin
ter's nose be at the door, it is a sign
I sufficient; but the absence of this is
| supplied by the ivy bush. The rooms
are ill breathed, like the drinkers.
It is a broachers of more news than
hogsheads, and more jests than news,
which are sucked up here by some
spungy brain, and from them squeezed
into a comedy. It is the common con
sumption of the tffternoon, and the
murderer or maker-away of a rainy
day. It is the torrid zone that scor
ches tlie face, and tobacco the gunpow
der that blows it up. To give you the
total reckoning of it, it is tho V'-y i
man's recreation, the idle man's busi
ness, tlx.' melancholy man's sanctuary,
and the stranger's welcome.'

How to Enjoy This Life.
What piety forbid* i not use but c.r
cfi*. It comes to all men, »■" teaching us
that denying ungodliness and worldly
lusts, we should live soberly, righteously,
and godly in this present world." 'What
piety requires is the right use of your
senses, appetites, and emotions, and oft
those objects in the world which plensur
ably excite tliem. The godly are " they
'hut UsK tit is vorld as 'iT Am -INII it.'
Even the dreaded self denial which re
ligion enjoins is not directs against the '
lawful K ie of things that are lawful, but
I against that powerful tendency to : elf-in- !
! diligence which is the black brand or de-1
praved human nature, and the source of
' those mighty eonfrct -between fle-h ti .r
--' it, through earnest soul mil t
pass that would the gate
I life. But as Orpheus with his lyre charm
-1 ed the grim monarch of Hades into sub
i mis-ion to his wishes, so .piety in a good
manlheart throws a spell of power over
l his appetites and passions, thereby bring
ing the carnal tendency of his nature i;l
--j to subjection to tho law of righteousno-s.
Lotus view, hint in contrast with lie
worldling at this point.
The worldling yieldf to the cravings of
: his depraved nature, and indulges his ;
sensatiom and emotions more than is cith
er light or healthy; the pious mind con
quers it, and *csts satisfied with lawful :
and healthful pleasures. The worldling 1
geokiS sensible pleasures as the prime j
of his existence ; the pious man accepts
| them a - the reasoning of duty and r-tiin- j
ulant 15 its ]«rf •rtmuice. The w rlilin r
i fulfills the hi.of the flesh," and J lung- j
es into '■ divers worldly lifts," such as
gluttony, drunkenness, reveling*, vain
amusements, covetou-ne's. and the like;
the pious man " crucifies the flesh with
its affections and lusts," keeps his "body
112 under, and brings it into subjection" to
' the law of " temperance in all things."—
The worldling so indulges himself as to
incur guilt in his pleasures; tho pious man
! accepts such pleasure only as is consis
tent with the preservation of a pure con
' science and a mind at peace with God.—
I In a word the worldling is the devoted
| slave of his appetites and passions; tho
pious man is their wise master and lord.
Which, then, think you, is likely to de
rive the most pleasure from them through
a life-time ? Their master or their slave?
To solve this problem you need only
consider carefully what has been already
stated, that the pious man keeps the law of
his physical, mental, and moral constitu
tion in all his pleasures, while the world
ling indulges himself without regard to
those laws. Now, most assuredly, no man
can, on the whole, extract more pleasure
from his scusations and cmotious by vio
lating their laws than can be obtained fivm
their lawful use. If ho can, then (iod has
so constituted men as to make disobedi
ence more productive of happiness than
obedience, which cannot be true. If he
cannot, then a religious life, instead of de
priving you of all sensible pleasures, is
likely to afford you more enjoyment of
earthly things than a sinful and unholy
one, and to verify the saying of tho Mas
ter : S"k first tin kingilum "/ (ifiM and
his i-iijlitiuuaicsx, mid all these things shall
he add'd unto you'' " lie that kccpcth
the law, happy is he."
There is an old fable which will further
illustrate the difference between the pirtus
and tli# worldling with respect to their
evjoynicntof this life. It describes a bee
finding a jar of sweet-meats in a garden.
Pursuing the flowers, it plunged into the
j;u- of sweet* aud gave itself up to their en
joyment. Despising the fedious toil of its
I l'ellow-bci s, among the flowers, it clung to
its abundance and cat to aticty. Clove 1 at
length, it sought to, quit its pleasure
house and retire to its hive. Isut its legs
were burried in the sweets. Flapping its
wings to escape, they too became immur
ed in the luscious mire. Struggling still
harder, it sunk deeper, and finally found
death, where so lately rt found nothing but
delight.
That silly bee is a fitting f3'pe of fhe
worldling, for like it he plunges into pleas
ures of appetite, sensation, orpa-sion, and
voraciously devours, while tho good man
cautiously sips. Like the bee, too, he
may crowd mora enjoyment into a brief
space of time than tlie good man can ob
tain from lawful moderation. But mark
the result. The excess of lii 3 indulgence
cloys his appetites; he is then afflicted
with the nausea ofsaiiety. Disgust dead
ens tho raptures of desire. Exhaustion
succeeds the excitement of passion. The
vital forces having been too lavishly ex
pended, become insufficient to impart
healthful motion to the machinery of life,
and its wheels begin to drag heavily along
The abused animal fuuetious developo
disease and feebleness, and he becomes
incapable of enjoyment, and the victim
of pain. Still liia diseased imagination
tyranizes over his passions,his habits weave
iron webs around liim, and his imbecile
will, unable to resist, permits him to lie
dragged, like a slave, into the embrace of
pleasures which his cloyed heart loathes.
Under this discipline of misery his mind
and body soon break down. lie lives as
a wrecked wretch of humanity, or .stum
bles prematurely into an unhonored grave.
Suvh ia the woEJKnsr'.: pleasure. Now
look again at the manner of the pious j
man's enjoyment of life, and its rc suits,
lie places as I hsve before shown, the law
of God, a-" found in the Scriptures and in
his own constitution, as a rein 011 the neck
of his sensational and emotional nature,
and thus restrains it from what is sinful.
While he avoids excess, he extracts every
lawful object thit can act upon his senses
and emotions. Thus lfe enjoys life slow
ly; he but does n»t cloy his ap
: petitos; hence lie knows nothing of the
j naus<'a of satiety, the ennui of exhaustion,
jor the fullness of abased powers. His
| vital fbMci MMhl vigorous and abund- j
ant, the currents of life flow heathfully
' along his vein ; lift is to him a daily ben- j
ison. He enjoys his exH' iTO, an<l hav
ing tin- carefully liusb mded his vital r
i cos until, by natural expenditure, they arc
exhaust -d, he finally passes from a peace
! lul death-bed into an honorable grave.

j yield themselves entirely up to fan
cied or real sorrow. When grief sits

foods upon its own tears, weaving the

When troubles flow upon you, dark 1

Tub Pjuwipext's Last. — The
'•President's last" must be recorded.
Its omission would bo unpardonable.
It isas follows: A gentleman recently
! from Richmond, called at the Vi bite
! House, a few days since, and, iji in
terview with Lincoln, said there
were Union men and Union prisoners
enough in tho rebel capital to take
the town at' any time, lie adri . d that
Mead's army be employed to divert
Leo, while JSutlcr was sent to attack
Richmond with a few thousand men.
This reminded the President of nr
story he once heard out in Illinois.
There was a Theological Seminary
a short distance from town, and a
small stream had to bp crossed 011 a
bridge to get at it. The creek over
sowed occasionally and the
bridge away. Tho theologians called
a meeting to see if they could not find
an architect who would build a perma
nent bridge—one that could resist
the ilood, and would not bo swept
away every year. One brother said he
i knew of such a man, and sent for him
iiT.m-diately. The builder arrived
! and was'asked if he could bridge tin?
'stream. Ile replied, with great em
phasis, that ho '-could build a bridge
clear to hell, if paid enough." ,
Tho theologians, highly indignant,
immediately dismissed him from their
! presence, and the brother who had
introduced him was called upon to
! apologize for him. "I am sorry for
! the offence, he gave you, brethern,"
said he, "but he is a good architect,
and I really believe he could build a
; bridge to the place he spoko of, but
I wouldn't be so sure of tho abutment
on the other side."
So it was with tho Unionists in
Richmond. Lincoln beli«vi-s Eutler
was a very good officer,but he had some
doubts about the other end of the
story, lie wasn't so true about tlie
{ Union abutment in Rienmond.
A SriitlTKt) 15iu in:.—A couple were
' going to be married, and had proceeded
j as far as the church door. The geutle
• man then stopped his intended bride and
thus unexpectedly addressed hen
"Mjtdeur Eli/. 1. during our courtship I
have told you most of my mind ; but 1 have
not told you the whole When we are
j married 1 shall insist upon three things."
• What are theyasked the lady.
"In the first place," said the bride
i groom,"l shall sleep alone; I shall eat
alone, and find fault when there is 110 oc
casion. Can you submit to theso condi
tioi»»?"
i i "O yes, sir. very easily," was the re
' ply; "fur if you sleep alone, I shall not;
i if you eat alone. I shall eat first' and i' 4
] to your finding fault without occasion. I
think that may be prevented, for 1 will
1 take care that you shall never want occa
sion." ' •
i ; Tho conditions being thus adjusted they
proceeded to tho altar, and the ceremony
| v/: s performed.
