suffering by the same cause The distribution, whether
Of provisions or money, will be made in Kansas by per-
fecty trustworthy committee, and the public may rely
upon it that, so far rs the utmost and wchulncss
can ensure it, part Of their gifts for this purpose will
be squandcred upon undeservng useless objects On
such grounds these the undersigned confidently ap-
peal ~ the citizens OF New York for aid this holy
OF charity and liberty.
Our brethren in Kansas known to be already, many
of them, in state Of great suffering for lack of food.

them must be in absolute want of bread al meat during
the next winter Indeed there is ample reason TO believe
that part OF the Internal scheme Of which they the
victims Is to drive them from the Territory by starvation
Under such circumstances, appeal to the heart Of
New York. Give the TO send food to these

ken p%rairies at the west, I was anxious
to learn all the particulars of thcit ORR
gin, history, and present condition.
Having undertaken this, at first, for
my own satisfaction, to enable me to
Judge how to continue and improve,
so valuable a race of animals, the ma
terials have accumulated on my hands,
until it appeared to me their publica
ton in some form, would be interesting
and useful, to farmers and breeders,
and prove valuable in giving accurate
aud reliable information to buyers
from abroad.
The rapid extension of railroads at
the South and West, has made the
mere draft horse of but little use; while
the hardy, spirited and active Morgan,
is found to be just the kind of horse
needed in his place
l intend to make thc book useful to
breeders and buyers, and to all such
dealers as have truly valuable Morgan
stock to dispose Of. TO those who wish
to palm off on buyers not well acquain-
ted with the stock, inferior animals,
with little or no Morgan blood, | do
not expect to render any assistance.
TO accomplish my object, l shall

Morgan Horses"


The Just celebrity which the horses
Of Vermont have obtained in all parts
Of the country. and the eagerness with
which the best blood is sought for at
the West and South, has made the
breeding of horses II of the most
profitable branches Of farming pursued
in the State.
The introduction Of a single horse
into the State sixty-three years ago,
las made many individual fortunes,
and added hundreds of thousands to
the wealth of Vermont farmers {; and
if the race be properly bred, it will
continue to be a source Of wealth for
generations to come.
The original Morgan horse did not
impress the farmers and breeders OF
that day, with a just idea of his value
and importance. They said he was
too small. lie was low, and looked
small by the side Of the tall horses
then in general use. But he was small
only in appearance. In action; he was
great. lie promised lllIc 10 INC con4'
mon eye but his performance was ex.
traordinary. lie could draw more
than any other horse Of his size
could leave any other horse behind
him on the road and though often run,
was never beaten.

we wonder that he was 50 little appre-

value.
Now, anything in relation to the OH
gin, history, and present condition Of
this breed of horses, is invested with
peculiar interest, and is valuable both
to breeders and buyers.

these horses, and proved their speed
and wonderful powers Of endurance,
