What Talent, Energy and
Skill Can Do in America.
81 A Feature
of the
Great Carnival.

A Feature
of the
Great Carnival.
To the general effect and
splendid success of the late
Carnival, no small contribution
was made by the Napoleon Of
Druggists, the famous DR.. IL
T. Helmbold, Of New York,
who, at great expense came to
Washington, bringing with him
the finest and most valuable
horses and carriage ever driv.
en- on Pennsylvania Avenue
A special description of this
establishment. cannot fail of be-
ing interesting. The Doctor
brought with him five horses,
two Hambletonians, and three
Kentucky ones. They were
driven together, two at the
wheel, and the others tandem.
Their graceful action, perfect
docihty, admirable training and
great speed, became the theme
of praise. Many Of the most
distinguished gentlemen of the
nations capital, by the invita-
tion and kindness Of DR.. Helm
bold, enjoyed the rare treat of
riding over the finest avenue
in America, in the handsomest
team, and afrer the five best
horses, now driven together,
the world can produce.
JUPITER AND PRINCE.
These are the wheel horses,
two large, powerful, and bright
bays, and while they are as
mettlesome and proud as the
historical horse of Alexander,
they are gentle and obedient
to the slightest movement of
the rein They are very fast,
and singly, have frequently
trotted q mile in two minutes
and forty seconds. Jupiter is
nine years of age and the
Prince eight, and so perfect a
picture of equine beauty, each
looks as they stand in harness,
that one almost expects to see
starting beneath his proudly
stamping foot a new Hippo,
creme, such as sprang beneath
the slender hoof Of winged
Pegasus, Horsemen in New
York and elsewhere, have made
repeated efforts to purchase
this span, but the Doctor
would not part with them for
love nor money. They are
among the noblest of the re,
nowned Hambletonian stock.
MAGENTA.
He is a Kentucky horse, six
years old, and q bright bay-a
full blooded animal, and capa-
ble of making a mile in two
and thirty seconds. He
is as tractable and kind as a
horse possibly can be. The
sagacity, which might be call
ed supra.equine intelligence, of
this beautiful animal, is most
remarkable, and well fits him
for the leadership of his spirit
cd companions. We hazard
nothing in saying that DR..
Helmbold would willingly give
ten thousand dollars for a horse
equal to Magenta. It would
be hard, very hard, to find an
other like him.
AUGUSTUS.
The next horse, appropm-
ately bearing the grand old
Roman name of Augustus, and.
fully sustaining its meaning,
follows Magenta, and like him
is a native of Kentucky. He
is bright bay, seven years old,
and makes his mile with ease
in two minutes and forty sec.
onds. His value we do not
know, but if emergency re-
quires he can take the place of
in the leadership
For Augustus, the Doctor ex-
presses a peculiar affection, and
he would not part with him on
any terms

Like the other four, Volant
is of a bright bay, eight years

sl''
Dexters could not trot it
together without long and
careful training.
THE HARNESS!
The harness worn by these
horses is in perfect keeping
with their beauty and value.
1t is made of the finest
leather, gold mounted, elabor-
ately ornamented, and bears
the monogram Ii. t. II. The
reina are of French buckskin.
martingales are made of fine
scales Of gold, and they flash
their purity of metal in the
sunlight with every movement
of the horses necks. The whip
cost one hundred fifty dollars,
and is heavily mounted with
gold.
THE CARRIAGE.
1t was built by Brewster in
New York, and it is a most
magnificent specimen of taste,
strength, ease and convenience.
1t may be used either as a
landeau or as a close carriage,
and with two, four or six foot
men. It's first cost was twenty.
eight hundred dollars in gold,
and it is considered the finest
carriage ever built in America.
1t is longer than other landeaus,
hence the hack look or APP
pearance is entirely avoided.
THE DRIVER.
DR.. Helmbold has secured
the services of Mr.. D. Kings
port, a horseman of great skill,
and a driver Of long experience
in this country, and in Europe.
For several years he was in the
service of the Emperor Napo-
leon as his driver. He is in
full charge of the establishment,
and makes the contracts for
transportation. He receives
the comfortable salary of two
hundred dollars per month, to
say nothing Of perquisites.-
Each horse has his own groom,
but their salaries and those of
the outsiders we do not know.
THE FEEDING, CLIPPING ETC.
DR.. Helmbold treats his
horses as if they were intelli-
gent human beings. Their
condition is carefully examined
every morning, and their phys,
iCal wants consulted. First
they have some nice vegetables,
and if they do not eat these,
fruit is resorted to-sometimes
they have apples, oranges,
bananas, and grapes as a last
resort. They are very fond of
grapes, and it is no uncommon
thing for Magenta to eat in the
morning five pounds of white
grapes; and such as Magenta,
Volant and Augustus get cost
one dollar per pound-and this
is the simple idea advanced by |
the esteemed and valuable |
friend and family physician of
DR.. Helmbold, DR.. Filbert, of
Philadelphia. None of the
Doctors horses are clipped,
but are thoroughly and con-
stantly groomed, and their
coats shine like satin. The
Doctor gives as the reason why
horses are clipped, that it is to
secure their neat appearance
without regard to the comfort
of the animal, and to save
grooming.
All this is quite sufficient to
Indicate that DIR. Helmbold
lives like q princely gentleman.
However, he has other carria-
ges, among them All American
drag, the most stylish and ele-
giant one in the country. 1t is
heavily trimmed with gold and
fitted for two coachmen and two
