Patent Elastic Saddles.

A WORD TO THOSE WIZ ARE FOND OF EASE
RIDING. ~
The complaint against hard and uneasy
saddles, which is for the most part just
and general one, and is really great gle.
vance % those who have much riding TO
do, bias caused him to turn bis mind par.
ticularly to that subject. with a view, it
possible, to remedy tbs evil. He can
with confidence assure the public thai be
has accomplished it. The plan projected
is by means Of strong and well tempered
steel springs, SO constructed as 10 support
the saddle seat and give much greater ease
to both rider and horse, than saddles made
in the common way or any other that he
has ever seen can possibly do. The plso
is entirely different from the English elias"
tic saddles with spring bars OF steel,
whalebone, &c. and also from those With
wire springs, and he coneelyes much SUI
perinr to either, as the elasticity IS great.
er, and The tree not beng pui out OF ITS o.
riginaI form, will not be subject to burning
horses on journeys, which is complalDec
of in the saddles with spring bars. A
number of gentlemen have those saddles
now IN use, and out one sentiment exists
among them in favor OF their superiority
The invention is equally as applicable 10
LADIES' saddles IS to gentlemens. 10
point of durability they will be warranted
equal TO any other saddles and superior |"
