Estimating the men to average $50 pounds

From the Maine Falner
Jottings IN Vermont

JOttlnBS IN vermont.
We publish below pleasant recital Of
what friend recently saw in short visit
to our sister state, over amsng the Green
Mountains, 1t very forcibly unfolds the
reason why Vermont may be considered
the banner State for prime horses; and
illustrates wherein the Vermonters have
been wiser than we have in Maine, viz {:
in practicing the good policy OF not being
tempted, BY any amount o f money, to part
with their best breeders. Had the Justin
and Sherman Morgan, horses which laid
the foundation Of the best breed Of horses
in the world, or old Black Hawk, who
gave to that breed the finishing touch of
elegance of figure and supremacy of speed,
been owned in Maine, they would have
been sold Out of our territory for mod.
crate sum Of money. But the Vermonters
knew better. They knew that after thess
horses had established the reputation they
did, that their very bones would draw pur.
chasers to the State, for horses of their
lineage. and they resisted all offers aud
kept them while living. and buried them
with honors, when dead. within their own
borders. The result proves the wisdom Of
their course
Our friend also shows the farmers Of
Maine how much more extensively the
Vermontsrs 60 into the breeding Of horses
than We do. 1t is not very uncommon
thing to find fifty or hundred head of
cattle, or several hundred sheep on some
of our farms in Maine, but where will
you find fifty colts in any one Of our barn.

Prof. Garfeld's Lectures.

We stated, last week, that Prof. Garfield,
would preach at the Disciple Church last Sun.
day, morning and evening, and lecture before
the Citizens Society, on last Friday evening
neither of which announcements were correct
The error in regard to the preaching on Sun
day, arose from the fact that a letter from Mr.
Garfeld,-which had been handed to u.s.
stated that he would preach on Sunday,-(the
day of the month not given he meaning Sun
day the Isth,-while we supposed he meant
the 1lth, As for the lecture, on Friday even
ing, we made the statement on the authority of
the announcement made by the President of
Citizens Society, at the meeting of the week
before. He had misunderstood the matter, we
followed suit, and the Professor was posted
Just one week ahead. This week it will be
right.
Mr.. Garfield commenced his series of lectures
on Monday evening. Empire Hall was crowd
ed, and the large audience, by their close at
t.ntion to the words of the speaker, gave evil
dence of their interest. The lectures Will con
tinue each evening of this week, Thursday
evening excepted, and the closing lecture, up
on Genesis and Geology, viii be given at the
Disciples Church, on Sunday evening.
