6y Ouhcard Appedrances.-'' offer the fol
lowing suggestions, the result Of my close
observation and long experience: If the
color be light-sorrel or chestnut, his feet,
face ard legs white-these are marks of
kindness. If he is broad and full between
the eyes, he may be depended on as horse
OF good sense, and capable of being trained
to anything; as respects such horses, the
more kindly you treat them the better you
will be treated in return.
Nor viii horse of this description stand
whip if well fed Ifyou want safe horse,
avoid one that is dish-faced. He may be so
far gentle as not to scare, but he will have
too much go-ahead in him to be safe with
every body. If you want a fool, bat horse
OF great bottom get deep bay, with not a
white hair on him. If his face is a little
dished, so much the worse Let no man
ride such horse who is not an expert rider;
they are always tricky and unsafe. IF you
want one that will never give out, never buy
large over-grown one. A black horse can.
not stand heat nor white one cold Ifyou
want a gentle horse, get one with more OF
less white about the head, the more the bet
ter Selections thus made are of great
docility and gentleness. - Charles L. TAay

Annoying and Laughable Accident.

One of those annoying, yet IudicrOus ac-
cidents, says the Louisville Courier, which
will happen in the best of families, occurred
on Sunday, not over a thousand miles from
that city. A dry goods clerk had an engage
ment to take his love out buggy riding. Early
in the morning he appeared before her
fathers door with one Of those spider-ike
vehicles which are probably constructed
with a view of ascertaining how light a
buggy can be made, and at the same time be
serviceable
The lady is sweet Is, beautiful, and just
little bit Of what Is termed fast" She Is
full Of life, fun and frolic, and Is decidedly
emb0np0iHt, weighing about 40 pounds
As the young gentleman drove up, his lady
love was standing on the top step at the
front door with her venerable father, who
had his good specs elevated on his forehead,
in order to get distant view Of his future
son-in-law
Adonis jumped out of the buggy prepare
tory to assisting of the young lady in, but
she suddenly took one of those strange
freaks to which the dear sex are all subject.
The buggy was standing about four feet
from the steps, and considerably below the
step upon which stood the young lady. She
probably wanted to convince her lover that
she was not clumsy if she was fat and
thought this would be a good time to show
him her agility. Be this as it may, she gave
a jump and landed in the centre Of the
buggy If she had but stopped there all
would have been well; but alas the thin
boards Of the bottom Of the buggy, unable
to stand the pressure gave way, and the
young lady continued her descent
There was piercing scream; a plunging
horse with a young man holding him a
bundle of muslin in the buggy, and two
little gaiter boots pointing to within six
inches of TIE ground under it, Pater-familias
rushed to the rescue and detached the horse
from the buggy. He then got up on one
side, young man on the other and they at
tempted to raise young lady up. o stop,
STOP you are killing me" she cried The
boards bad broken in the center, and the
long sharp splinters extended dOwnwards,
and when they attempted to raise the young
lady out Of her predicament these sharp
splnters would catch in her Ie-pshaw
Did you ever see wire mouse trap ? If not
90 and get one, stick your finger through
the entrance funnel and try to pull it out
You will then understand the sad fix that
our young lady was in on Sunday morning
The old man comprehended the situation
lin moment He told the young man to
get down and break the splinters off Young
lady screamed 90, don't" and young man
wouldn't AT this stage of the proceeding
practical neighbOr came up with hatchet
and the young lady was soon extricated
from her unpleasant situation, and disap-
peared behind the front door
We don't know whether the young lady
sustained any serious injury or not, and we
not going to ask any questions Of that young
man.

An Incident Of the War-When Jackson
was moving on to strike McClellan's flank
on the Chickahominy, he came to stream
which had no bridge, and could not be crossed
without one The General had brought with
him from the Valley rough, uneducated
man, full Of energy, who had served him in
emergencies, and in whom he had the ut
most confidence. He called this man and
told him that the stream must be brid ged
Immediately; the regular engineers were
also advised Of the fact. In short time
the rough carpenter and the polished men
Of science were at the stream; the former
had his plan, the latter theirs; he wished to
go at the " ork at once without drawings,
but they objected until they could perfect
the plans on paper. The engineers retired
to their tent to perfect a paper bridge; the
carpenter took his men and went to work
to make real one In a very short time
he appeared at the Generals tent, and re-
ported, briefly, thus: General, that bridge
is done, but them pictures amt come yet"
