SPRING SADDLES.

A WORD TO THOSE WHO ARE FOND OF EASY RIDING.

which is for the most part just and general one, and
is really grievance to those who have much riding to
do has caused him to turn his mind particularly to that
subject, with view, if possible, to remedy the evil
He can with confidence the public, that he has
accomplished it. The plan projected is by means of
strong and well tempered steel springs constructed
as to support the saddle seat and give much greater
ease to both rider and horse than saddles made in the
Common way, any other that he has pos
siby do The plan is entirely different from the En-,
gsh elastic saddles with spring bars of steel, whale
bone, &c. and also from those with wire SPRINGS and
he conceves much superior to either the elasticity
is greater and the tree not being put out Gifts original
FORM will not be ject to hurting horses on journeys
which is complained ofin the saddles with spring bars
number of gentlemen have those saddles now muse
and but sentiment exists among them in favor OF
their superiority The invention is equally applca
bic to ladies' saddles as to gentemens. Any person
DESTROYS of purchasing those easy saddles, is at liberty
first to make trial OF one and judge of their for
themselves In point of durability they will be war
ranted equal any other saddles and superior to
