Morgan HoraeR.

iswith great pleasure that we learn and
communicate to our readers tho fact that
we are at last to have reliable history
Of the Morgan Horses, from the pen Of
D. G. Linslcy, Esq of Middlebury,-a
gentleman perfectly conversant with
this excellent breed, and whose oppor-
tunitics for collecting information in re-
laton to its origin, &C., have been supe-
rior Breeders and dealers in horned
stock know full well the value of the
American Herd Book, promoting their
sales and raising the price of their cattle.
Here in Vermont the Morgan holds the
place Of the Short Horn in New York,
and every man in the State who owns
blood mare or colt Of the Morgan strain,
should possess copy of this work. 1t
will prove at once an advantage to the
honest dealer in Morgan horses, and a
protection to purchasers who come into
the State from abroad. attracted by tho
reputation OF onr stock Many histories
and tedigrces have al different times been
published in tho various agricultural pa
pers, but none Of them have been reln-
bic. and each one has been intended to
SUI observe the interests Of some particular
owner, and to give fictitious merit
to some horse with small claims to Nor
gan descent. This work has a different
and better purpose, which is to Indicate
the best stock horses in the State aud to
preserve, in its purity. our best Morgan
blood. We hope Mr.. Linsley may reap
nm abundant reward for HE labor and
that every man in Vermont who owns a
Morgan, will purchase this work, which
will be sure to help him to better sale
than he could otherwise mako Green
