Ertract Of letter from DR.. Merritt, dated
Moy Q, 1887.

Inow predict that in few years. FELT will be
OF the best Stations in America. | am sure
from the appearance OF Fets colts here and in
England, no horse can boast of a better or more
promising progeny. They will be, in my opinion
very distine usbsd the turf and under the saddle
yes, every where. The colts of the imported
horses are winning ell stakes in the best posi-
BILE style and manner Our Of ten races IN which
the imported horses colts have started they have
won nine races; and but for the unkind running o
colt, would have the other race. There
were twenty-nine or thirty subscribers TO the Pc
tersburg stakes--of these there eight nine
by our horses-the rest twenty or upwards by
American Stall ons. The colts by our horses run
lst I'd, Sd. and dth, in the race at -four heats
track very heavy. and time good each heat. II H.
allowed by all parties be the best race ever made
over the course. There were twelve subscribers to
the other stake at New Market--four by our horses.
and eight by natives, won at two heats by Major
Ridley's colt (by an imported horse) in I'm, SIS.
and I'm, SIS, Oe,y easily. he colts by imported
horses, run in the large stakes at Lswrenceville,
$500 entrance, were placed Ist. I'd, and Sd in the
fsce--tbete were as many natives than
colts by imported horses. At BeIfeld they won
three stakes In hrst-fate time and stylc-repeafinr
in two OF them 10 I'm, and 52s, and imported colts
contending for two Of the raees. To one of these
stakes there were eight subscribers, and only one
colt by horses qualified IN start. Now you have
in Feli Of our very best imported horses Bet
ter horse, in my humble opinion, than Luzborosgh
or Fylde, and see how their colts run"
Il will be seen by the annexed terms, that DR..
Merritts lberality TO this country has permitted
Felt to make season here much lower priced than
he did in a country where he was justly favorite,
and had crowded season. He will stand this
son, (which has commenced and will end the first OF
Juiy,) at my stable, two and a half miles east Of
Battletown, in Clarke County, Va, at $50 the
son. be paid on or before the I'd day Of July next

is known TO be with foa ;--parting with the mare
or irregular attendance the stand forfeits the in
surance--and fifty cents cash TO the groom to be
SEN; with the mare. This is fine grass country,
and Pasturage can be furnished at fifty cents per
week, but | will not be accountable for accidents
or escapes. Gentlemen wishing their mares fed on
grain will give written directions to that effect as
it will be purchased and furnished at the neighbor-
hood prices. BY letter or conversation siM me,
gentlemen can ascertain upon sohat conditions half

Ting Committee Here Mr.. WISE fell
into one OF his half whispering undcrtones'
or. All that caught his ear were the
words "too insulting" -"bfide" com.

feel no rejoicing at these public losses ; but
] certainly can end do feel sense OF veto.
", of,riumph. connot help it when see
all that predicted happening, and all that
charged daily coming TO light.
Mr. Woodbury. has taken pains to show
that M. Swartwout's dcfalca,ions did not
commence with the period OF Mr. van
Buren's election, but extended back thro'
General Jackson's administration, aud even
to the very commencement Of his period OF
service as Collector. remember the time.
Swartwout had been implicated by runner
in Burr's conspiracy, which General jack.
son took much crcd, TO himself for expos.
ing. But when it was reported that Swart
won't, one of Burr's conspiralors. was TO
receive the place OF Collector Of N. YORK,
there was one general burst Of Indignation
throughout the country: the disapprobat'on
was not confined to the Opposition 1t was
as strongly felt by the friends Of The Ad
ministration. Even the Governments own
print shuddered at such an appointment.
After the first emotions Of indignation had
thus been expressed, there was pause; II
was found to be heavy and dangerous
weight TO carry over the bridge oil pubic
opinion, and the President felt bis way like
the elephant who sagacousy puts out hi:
foot 10 try the strength OF a bridge before
he commits to it his mammoth bulk.
After this pause, the rumor was agar
revived, first in some little obscure dlslan
paper. that such on appointment was actu
ally 10 take place. The feeling was re
newed, but not in such strength as wher
the idea was new and sudden; and so j
went on till at length The Public were tired
the subject grew stale and when the ap'
poinment actually was made, the public
mind reluctantly and gradually acquiesced
Notwithstanding so strong an objection
against him, General Jackson trusted The
man; and now Mr.. Woodbury. tells u
that he came into Office conspirator, ant
went out q defauller. Whether Swart'
won't was sold, doubt much. From The
letter of Price, am rather led to the con-
victon that Price is parlceps criminis.
