talent, as well as assisting the committee in
their labors for sick and wounded soldiers.
The funds of the society are now in an ex-

Horse TRAINING.-The exhibition by D.
Wagner, Esq, on Tuesday, of his trained stall
lion "Turco," attracted great attention and
was admired by all who witnessed it. The
horse is Of the Messenger Black Hawk breed,
and was raised in the State of New York.
Though splendid animal yet so vicious had
he become that Mr.. Williams, his owner, about
eighteen months since, sold him to Mr.. Magner
for $40. Under the training of his new owner
he has become so kind and gentle that $1,000
has been refused for him. He is guided by
the motion Of the whip, without wearing head
stall or reins, and follows his master like
dog.
Mr. Wagner will give another exhibition of
"Turcon at o'clock this afternoon in Market
Square, and viii show the remarkable power
he has over the horse, power, which, by his
system of instruction, he imparts to his pupils
The system Of Mr.. Wagner in horse shoeing,
which he illustrates with models, has attracted
great attention wherever he has been, and it
is pronounced by farriers and horse dealers to
he the best that they know OF.
1t is not his intention to open class for in
struction In this city, as his calls in the coun-
try are SO numerous as TO forbid it. He will,
however, give an exhibition at 7 IL o'clock
this evening In Robinson's Riding Academy,
South Street, in illustration of his theory of
training horse. He will handle and manage
his own horse first, and will then try his power
upon several strange animals, the most vicious
and unmanageablc that can be brought for
ward.
His system in this respect is altogether dr.
fsrent from that of Mr.. Rarey, as he uses no
straps and does not throw the horse 1t takes
him from 1--WE TO ten minutes to subdue the
widest horse that can be found. A limited
number Of tickets, at so cents each, will be
issued. They may be had at the Preble House
or at the door of the Academy in the evening.
We advise all who admire fine horse to at
tend this exhibition.
