mer an unknown German died, as was alleged,
of excessive heat, on an emigrant-traiu, be-
tween Bordentown aud Trenton, n. D., and
his body was claimed by two Germans, who
said they were relations, and be was buried in
Trenton. The Bordentown Register says that
a few days since some parties directly from
Germany arrived at Bordentown. 1t appears
he had in his possession over $40, 900, with
which he intended to start business in the
West. His friends assert that the two men
who claimed relationship were imposters, and
that they appropriated to themselves the prop

Fast Horses.

In time gone by. tie attention of agri-
cultural papers, agricultural societies and
breeders of horses has been directed to
speed as to the standard of excellence in a
horse, and premiums have been awarded
upon trial of speed over the race course,
shd ths stock of some sweepstakes" have
been sought after, not BY sportsmen aud
fancy dealers only, but by farmers, as if
speed were the only thi#g needful, or at
least the che which iHSGred every other
desirable Quality in horse.
Now the fact is that, while Z free, rapid
gait is very desirable quality in car
riage horse, it is not especially desirable
anywhere else, and run is never desira-
BILE, except when going FOR doctor at a
distance IN some extreme emergency, and
then a man would never lend his $4,000
race horse to go. To speak plainly, high
speed is cultivated and considered specially
valuable only for purposes of gambling
not upon the small scale of twenty-five
cent game at poker, but upon that dignified
respectable scale in which the stakes run
up to hundreds and thousand. of dollars
What is it that gives the racer or fast
trotter such prodigioasly enhanced price
over another worth twice as much fo! any
practical use? Nothing but the prospect
that he will win money tor his owner on
the race course. If hotIy chased by Indi-
ans, or by one of those prairie fires that we
read of, speed might be of some use, if
the animal had bottom enough to cores
pond. But such animals never get very
near the Indians, and such fires only sweep
over the pages Of romance. High speed
is essentially the gambling quality of the
horse, ard when agricultural socie ties
award premiums upon such horses, they
award premiums upon the most Successful
instruments of gambling.
The stock of racer may, possibly, be
more lively on the hoot than that OF 9TH
ets of a different build and temperament.
but it is generally at the expense of other
qualities equally OF more important. A
horse built like a greyhound can never
have the strength and endurance nccessa-
r5 so. the honest. useful service.
We are glad to notice that the agricul-
tural press and agricultural societies are
beginring to take sensible view as to
what constitutes really valuble horse, and
to insist upon leaving fast horses to fast
men, and encouraging those improvements
in the stock which are of service in the
useful walks Cor trots) of life. Sensible
people do not want to drive 20 Mill or to
meeting, nor yet to market, on keen run,
nor to piow, on a 2'4O trot. They want
horses that will turn good score of fur
rows, haul good load. OF perform good
days journey on the road, and do it day
after day the season through, rather than
those that will run a mile in ninety Sec
onds and are good for nothing Wiscoh-
sin Farmer.

The New York Times says We have q
nice crop of new issues springing up for fu>
ture political harvesting. In the first
place there is con6scation, the seed of
which was planted by Mr.. Thaddeus Ste
vens, and which, under assiduous cultiva-
tion, has grown up to be quite sturdy
plant. Then comes the redistribution of
property, and re-arrangement of the
regulations between employers and en-
ployed, proposed by that Solon of legisla-
tors, Senator Wade, of Ohio. Next in or
der, Is the brilliant project of Chandler, Of
Michigan, who is almost as wise, and quite
as conscious Of his own wisdom, as Wade,
who proposes that we should seize Canada
in satisfaction for the Alabama claims (;
and, to cap the climax, we see that pub
lie meeting in New Orleans demands that
Congress should appropriate fifty millions
of dollars to "obtain possession" OF Cuba
Happy is the nation that has such men IN
its public councils; thrice happy will it be
when it learns to estimate them and their
schemes at their proper value.-Ind'an-
