And also a Spring attached to the Girth or
Girths and to the tree. The saddle is made
with or without a Pommel, just us persons
may fancy.
Saddles made upon this plan are incom
parably superior to any heretofore -in use,
in point of strength, durability and elastici•
ty, to the horse and rider. The application
of the spring to the girth is productive of
ease and comfort to the horse, and protects
him from injuries arising from violent or

SADDLES.';
Notwithstanding the prejudices against
these Saddles heretofore, he feels justifiable
in saying, that he hopes to gain the confi
dence and patronage of the public—as he is
enabled, on the present principle, to ensure
all his saddles without any extra charge.—
That a soft, easy saddle is desirable to all
persons who ride much, and particularly to
those who may not be favored with a very
I pleasant horse; I preliume all persons will
unhesitatingly patronize the spring saddles,
when they will be ensured as long as the
purchaser may deem necessary.
The elasticity ofthe Saddle acting in har-
mony with the symetry of the horse and
rider, not only affords ease to the man, but
incalculable advantage to the horse. All
persons of judgment and experience must
know, that a dead, unelastic weight on a
horse is oppressive. The Spring in the
Girth affords the following advantages: Ist
Moving or yielding with the horse's chest in
breathing, no cramps or cholics or any dis
ease can rise therefrom. 2d. The girth will
outlast two or three of the common kind,
because the yielding of the spring on the sud
den expansion of the chest prevents the girth
from breaking, and saves the rider from fall
ing; many fulls have heen the fruits of break
ing girths.
GENTLEMEN and LAMES are invi
ted to apply, as the little difference in the
cost of these and the hard Saddles is so tri
fling, and incomparable with the difference
in comfort and safety.
N. B. Saddlers in the country can be
accommodated with Township or Shop
Rights at a trifling cost.
