RETURN OF Mr.. Ten BRoECK.-Among
the passengers by the Vanderbilt, was
Richard Ten Broeck, the representative
of the American turf in England. The
racing season being over there, he returns
home to be with his family. and TO look
out for fresh champions with which to COM
pete with the British flyers. All sporting
men say that the country Is not fifty repre-
sented abroad, Prioress. though good
racer, is said to be not first class. TheoH
Spirit Of the times. the other day, stated that
she ranked below that class to which
Nicholas, Sue Washington, and such like
belong.
Mr.. Ten Brock will leave for Kentucky
in a few days. He will look well around
the country and stables, and see what is
to be seen, and know what is to be learned.
He is an eminently proper man to repre-
sent us on the turf in England, and he
only wants the horses-young and fresh
to do it. Every one now begins to admit
that it was mistake to send out such an
imals as, s,,Lecompte, Prior, and even Char.
lesion. They were noble horses, but they
had already reaped their fields of glory,
and should not have been pushed to con
quest anew, when they had everything to
lose, with chances of very little gain. Mr..
Ten Broeck's past experience has taught
him a good lesson, and when he next sends
racing horses to England they will be fresh
and Young. and in the end will be sure to
win.-Ne,o York Letter to Charleston Courier.

shoeing Horses.

The first point to be considered is, how
to get the old shoe off Do not let the
smith merely roughly raise the clenches,
and drag the shoe off by main force with
his pinchers, but let each nail be thorough
ly loosened and the shoe taken carefully
off. The next point to be thought of is
pairing the foot, and fitting the shoe; re-
member, the shoe must fit the foot, not
the foot the shoe. Pare out the foot till
the sole shows a slight degree of elasticity
under moderate pressure; do not, howev-
er, on any consideration allow the black
smith to ''open out the heels"-he will
cut away the bars" which are the but
tresses which support the outside crust,
and by so doing will greatly increase tho
chance of contraction. The shoe should
not be wider or longer than the hoof at
the heels-any projection increases ten
fold the chance of the shoe being lost in
going through dirt" With regard to
| the aumber Of nails, / should generally
recommend seven. four out. And three in
side, to be placed as near the toe as posi-
| bic, so as to allow the heels to expand and
contract freely. Great care should be Ia
ken in getting good nails they ought to
bear being bent with hammer three or
four times if they will not bear this test,
should be sufficiently beveled out to ad-
NIT of the introduction of picker. / al
ways fit mot fasten) on my horses shoes
warm, as by so doing any little inequality
of the hoof is discovered, and the shoe
made to fit quite accurately. There is al
50 one very important point which is rare
ly attended to- | mean the clenching of
the nails. Once the nails are clenched
down, never let the rasp 60 near them !;
the sharp steel of the rasp will very proba-
bly, cut through the bend of the clench,
and thus endanger the safety of the shoe.
have hitherto principally referred to fore
shoes. In conclusion will say word or
two as to hind ones. / do not like Mr..
Miles sharp-toed shoes, but prefer the
! old-fashioned squarish-toed ones, with two
clips and little bit of crust projecting be-
| yond the toe. Great care should be taken
to bevel off the edges of the ground sur
face at the toe, otherwise in going thro'
| heavy ground over-reaching is likely to
! happen. With respect to calkins / am
| disposed to think that the heels well
thickened are equally efficacious, and a
calkin on one side only always seems to
me an anomaly; in fact, horse going
along hard ground cannot tread straight.
Lastly, let me entreat those of my fellow
| sportsmen who like myself, are unable to
keep a stud groom" occasionally to go
with their horses to the forge, and feel
sure that in the course of a seasons hunt
| ing they will find their trouble amply re-
| warded. d.-POrtcr's Spirit Of the Times

AcoulrrAL FOR SHoorfNG A SEDrCER.-A
young man named Hardesty has just
been acquitted at Berlington, in Boone
county KY, under a charge Of murder in
shooting a Mr.. Grubb who had seduced
his sister Hardesty had told the sedu-
Ger that he would give him six months
to make his choice between marrying
the girl and being killed. The six months
expired, and the marriage not having
been effected Hardesty meeting him
shot him at sight, while he was attempt
ing to draw a weapon. The judge, in
Diminishing him, is reported in the Louis
vile Courier, Of the 28th ult. to have
addressed him as follows:
SIR-You have been indicted by a
grand jury of your country upon a most
sheinous charge you have put yourself
upon your country and your God for de-
liverance. Yon have had a fair and i'm
partial trial before them, and they have
both pronounced you not guilty, and so
say. 1t may not be proper for me to
express my sentiments, yet nevertheless,
l will do it. Young man had l been
wronged as you have been, / would
have spent every dollar / had on earth,
and all that l could have begged and
borrowed, and then starved upon the
track Of the william, but | would have
imbrued my hands in his blood. Go
hence without delay. You are acquitted !!

ing, Dare devilish sort of a fellow, see
ing the ball descend, and whilst smoke
from the fuse was yet issuing thcreirom,
walked deliberately up and taking the
terrific missile, placed it cody upon the
ton of his head, and then walked off as
though he had found and secured a fresh

ly commenced rearing and kicking, and,
to make matters worse, the blinds of the
bride slipped down and enabled him to
see the shafts of the vehicle to which he
was unaccustomed.
Taking fright, he turned very short
round and completely overturned the
buggy and, Mr.. Levy, whose legs some
way became cntangled in the reins, was
so violently hurled out of it that his
right leg was fractured in three places
above the ankle.
He was Immediately taken into the
store of Messrs. Simon & Loeb, by his
brother, John Yoist, Esq, and ourseIt,
who happened to be on the spot, and a
messenger was Immediately despatched
for DR.. Ladmirault, who came soon after
and administered such relief as his we'll
known skill enabled him to. We have
the melancholy pleasure to add that the
Doctor has strong hopes of being able to
restore him in a reasonable time, to the
use ofthe impaired'limbs. God grant, !
As for the horse, after ~overturning the
buggy, he kept kicking till he kicked
himself clear of the harness, traces etc,
and then ran away with the shafts still
hanging to him. He stopped about half
mile below our Office, in no way injur-
ed or hurt.
