Size of q Horse.

No horse ought to be, for any purpose more than
from fifteen and half to sixteen hands high the
object you must aim at is compactness-as much
horse is possible The thorough bred horse, capa
BILE of running four miles under eight minutes, must
from the very nature of the business for which he is
bred, be the staunches most enduring and strongest
horse which lives because, to run this distance at
the maximum of speed mentioned, he requires all
those qualities which make valuable horse in the
greatest perfection, consequently by crossing these
thoroughbreds our larger draughl mare, while suf
tClen size is obtained through the mare spirit, ac
ton, good wind great endurance and speed are OBJ
tanned from the horse which will bring out four and
five year old colts, which sell from $75 to $50,
to be worth from $l00 to 5000 1t is much TO be
lamcnted that intelligent farmers OF this country do
not see this thing in it's right hight
We may have published the bjoined paragraph,
but it will bear repetition, to show what noble pro-
vince short-sighed politicians tried to keep out of
the Union. The resolves Of Massachusetts, that she
would go out if Texas in, have never repealed
regard to finances. Her compt oler in his recent re
port, says the stale IS out of debt with surplus OF
over million of dollars in the treasury-a pema'
nent per cent school fund of Ten millions Of dol
ars--an unappropriaed public domain estimated at
hundred millions OF acres, which, if Judicou>ly
used, would sub>erve all the purposes of internal I'M
provements required by the state, and tax lighter
than is imposed any other people, and which is
adequate TO al the wants Of the government. The
aggregate amount OF taxable property is very neal
$3.50 00G 600, being increase of S22500 600, over
the previous year.

INTERESTING FROM JAPA&.-The Steamer San Ja-
cinto.-A letter from friend at Shanghai informs
US that the United States steamship San Jacnto, the
flag vessel of the East India Squadron, arrived at
WOosung on the I1h of September, in six days from
SimOda, Japan. She left Hong Kong on the 18th of
August foF Simoda, having on bOald MIR. Harris the
United States Consul General TO Japan. During her
trip she rescued quite number OF Chinese from frag
mens OF wrecks. In one case, no less than fifty fye
persons We're taken from a Government junk while
she was IN a sinking condition The San Jacnto
mad very pleasant visit 10 Japan, and the intercourse
between the commodore, mis- officers and the Japanese
authorities was OF the most friendly character 1t
IS said, however, to be the policy of the Japanese
Government to oppose with every obstacle in It's
power foreign intercourse, and The arrival of the San
JaclntO, with Mr. Harris on board, was not desired.
In an interview with the commodore, the question
was asked if he could take Mr. Harris back again
Inc reply was that his orders were to bring Mr. Har-
rs there ana leave him, anu he should obey them
FINDING the commodore thus dec died. the authorities
immediately set about to prepare residence for the
Consul General and for that purpose fitted up one
OF their temples, near by which flagstaff was cree.

Morality OF misunderstanding one day OF The
early Romans, Mir. Webster said he could almost be-
leve everything related by historians on their extra
ordinary virtues, public and domestic when he dwelt
upon the fact that though their laws authorized d.
vorce, yet, for the first five hundred years, indi-
vidual ever availed himself of such license! 1t
was the domestic training,'' he said, {" it was the
mother who made Publicola, Camillus and Corr.
olanus. Women, protected by the invioability of
the nuptal bond were invested with dignity that
gave authority to instruction, and made the domestic
hearth the nursery of heroes. Public virtue" he
said, fell with private morality. Under imperial
Rome divorces were sent for and obtained upon most
frivolous pretexts, and all domestic confidence was
destroyed. The inevitable consequence was the loss
of all public morality. Men who had been false to
their private obligations would not be true to their
public duties. Caesar divorced his wife, and betrayed
his country. The sanctity of the nupal bond is, in
my opinion, one of the principal, If not the chief
cause Of the superior refinement freedom and pros
perty enjoyed at the present time by Christian ma
