SUCKING COLTS.


SUCKING COLTS.
The second annual show of Paul !
Georges sucking colts, occurred at Wal !
pole, N. H., on Thursday of last week. !
The following is the report of the award
ing committee:
"The committee after examining quite
a number of fine colts, award the first
premium of $500 to George Campbell,
Esq, of Westminster West, Vt.
Second premium of $500 to Horace
Wing, Esq, of Charlestown, n. H.
Third premium of $1,000 to A. Walk
er, Esq. of Grafton, Vt.
Mr.. f. A. Wier exhibited very fine
horse colt, to which if he had been
competitor, we should awarded the first
premium.
DAVID BuFFUM, for the Committee.
Walpole, N. H., Sept. /, 1870"
These sucking colts have been selling
this season at from 500, to $3.50. and
Mr.. Wier has refused an offer of $500
for the one alluded to above and values
him at $500.
On tho occasion Of the above exbibi-
ton, Henry E. Rowland, Esq, of New
York made the following remarks:
"We hold here this afternoon local
Horse Fair, for which we are literally
indebted to individual enterprise, and
we hope to make the occasion worthy of
attendance. 1t is conceived in spirit
Of liberality which puts to the blush the
annual fairs of this vicinity, which are
supposed to embody the liberality of the
neighboring country, and by munifcent
premiums attract notable exhibition,
but we find them out done here in this
respect for while the Ashuelot Valley
Fair offers $500 premium for the best
stallion over five years old, (not enough
to pay his farce, the Cheshire County,
$500, the great Conn. River Fair at
Brattleboro, $4,000. We here offer s25
for sucking colts.-As we Guido them in
premiums, so we do in horses, and

l beg now to introduce to this large and
intelligent audience the noblest Roman
of them all-his majesty, Paul George
himself, l need not waste time in dwell

NAL, the horse, before so many admirers
of the race as / before me. l have heard
it said that in New England, they talk
horse, think horse, read, love and eat
horse, and it isn't remarkable for the
New England people are avowedly the
most intelligent and best educated peo-
pie in the United States to say nothing
OF the world at large, and they know
when they have subject worthy of their
admiration. and they are not given to
wasting their admiration on anything
that isn't. Other people have done so
before us. The Romans deifed and wor-
shipped the animal, and ennobled him
by placing him on an equal with man,
crowned him with laurel and built statues
in his honor. The Emperor Caligala.
by an imperial decree, made his horse a
consul and conferred upon him the priv.
lleges and pomp of that high station
His rack was silver, his stalls were of
the richest and most expensive wood. his
trappings were imperial in their magnif.
cence and his train of attendants and
menials were as numerous as those of
his human equal in rank, and we have
caught some of the spirit of this tradi-
ton, for if we wish TO compliment a

The French Empire and Napoleonic
dynasty have gone up The French
Congress OH Monday voted 1873 to 0, that
Napoleon had forfeited his throne and
Paris declared for republic. A repub-
lie has already been proclaimed by the
French government, or what there is
left of it in Paris. The people Of Ameri-
ca will naturally be glad to see republic
an form of government established there
but it is doubtful if the intelligence of
France is sufficient tosustiain arepublic.

clever man we say he knows as much as
horse, and we dignity good judgment
as horse-sense. In imitation of the Ro-
man dignities we crown this horse with
this wreath of flowers (here the horse was
crowned with beautiful wreath made
by the ladies of Walpole.)
Serene Imperial monaeh of the fields,
10 baser sorts. thy spirit never yields,
Poets from ages past, have sung thy praise.
And woman crowns thee with impershable lays.
You are doubtless all familiar with the
pedigree and high lineage Of the noble an
imal, and it is unnecessary forme to dwell
upon it. He comes on his mothers side
Of kingly stock, Of what is known among
korse men as the blood royal. He is a
great grandson Of imported Messenger,
which is universally acknowledged to
have bee the finest horse and to have
produced the finest stock Of the
country. Trace a horses blood up
TO imported Messenger and you need
give him no other character. The great
trotters Of the country are descended
from him, and the fastest time on the
road has been made by his descendants.
! need not mention to you Dexter who
was sold to Mr.. Bonner for $4,000, and
Tor whom he has refused $4,000. George
Wilkes for s25, 900: Lady Thorne, Lady
Suffolk, Cassius NJ. Clay. Boomers Au'

ers, famous in the annuls of the turf
The blood of these famous roadster:
comes to the horse on the side of his dam
but his descent on themale side is no les:
honorable. His grandsire was Hill;
Black Hawk, the sire of Ethan Allen
Sherman Black Hawk, Lancet, Black
Ralph, &c. &c. who are all uncles o
Paul George. Ethan Allen you al
know, he has made the time of 215 with
a running mate, and he is the sire o
Bonnre's Pocabontas (who has trotted s
half mile in liza Fanny Allen, Hotspul
and many other famous horses who arr
the cousins of Paul George. The Har
ris horse, known as the Vermont Ham
bletonian, the great-grandsire Of thi
horse was the sire of Sontag, Green
Mountain Maid, John Anderson, Johr
Stewart, Gen. Mobiles Stallion and 9th
ers, and thus you see that the blood o
two famous horses is united in Pau
George.
One word as to the probable excellenc'
of his offspring. In rough countr!
like this, strong horses, with strong legs
! good feet, sound constitution for hare
work on the farm or on the road are es
sential requisites. A horse that possesse
! these qualities cannot be a failure, an,
is valuable animal. If to these quail
ties you add the probable chance Q
| speed which may be reasonably expecte,
from horse with the blood Of Pau
George, and it must creep out in some c
his colts, for what is bred in the bone wi
come out in the flesh, and you cannc
but acknowledge that he is most desil
able sire for colts, possessing as he doe
every quality for horses for this region
in addition to that most expensive an
desirable luxury, speed"

PRUssIAN TACTICS AND FRENCH HERO
IsM.-A correspondent writes to the Con-
stitutional in these terms concerning the
combat Of Reischshoffen
was concealed behind a rock, two
thousand metres from the field of action,
and followed with my telescope the move
ments of the Prussians and French d.
visions. The enemy, lying in ambush
in the wood, whose smallest pathways
they seemed to be thoroughly acquaint-
ed with, fred with extraordinary precis-
ion. Frequently they came out in boz
dy Of fifty or sixty from behind the
trees, in order to decoy the French, and
when the latter advanced they sailed
out suddenly in column of one or two
thousand men keeping up continuous
fire, which caused terrible havoc in the
French ranks, then rushing back and
hiding themselves anew. This game
lasted for long time, for, alas one of
the French generals persisted in trying
to carry position which he ought to
have turn d. Your soldiers foamed
with rage, their firing became quickened,
and their bullets we're spent uselessly in
the wood. When the losses of the French
seemed tothe Prussians sufficiently large
they fell with all their forces on their
adversaries and overwhelmed, fighting
as these brave men were one ag inst FIVE,
and their ammunition beginning to run
short. Then occurred a sublime drama,
which l shall never forget. The French
allowed themselves to be cut to piece:
with unexampled heroism, and only
when the ground was covered with their
dead did those that remained effect a re
treat.

DIsGRAcEFUL SCENE IN COURT
RooM.-The Newport (Vt) Express
says the climax of indecency was reach
ed in a court of justice in that village
last Monday. After the endearing names
of liar, ETC., had freely passed between
the opposing counsel, one of them, in
the midst of his argument seized the
compiled statutes, and with much more
force than discretion, piled the law in its
purity upon the bald pate of his oppos-
ing brother. A scene of confusion en-
sued, coats came off, knives were drawn,
and blood or something else might hav,
freely flown had not bystanders interior,
ed. Order was finally restored, and tn
justice imposed a fine Of s. upon the of
fender.

of the Prussian soldiers on going into
battle to tear off their absurd and cum

strewn with these hlemets. The French
have declined to wear their great bear
