Interesting Letter from John Har.
per.


New YORK, August %.
Old John Harper has written lettel
to Wilkes Spirit, in which he says: 81
am about to return 10 my home IL
Kentucky, and may never come Eas
again. | am an old man / have beer
the companion Of race horses for three
score years, and every year | have
lived | have learned something. |
however, have never learned that there
was anything more reliable than 8
game thoroughbred horse. unless it wa:
a game chicken. But with the latter u
is its nature to fight; it has no brain
other than the idea OF fight unto death.
But a horse is an intelligent animal
My horses always understood me, and
knew just what they asked for.
have bred and owned many good
horses, any one of whom, when
trained him for race, wonld just win
if he could, or die in the attempt.
They never deceived me- Unless they
met a better horse they always won.
Therefore, knowing they would never
deceive me, | have made them my
companions, asd obtained the pleasure
OF my lite from their association
Who that has trusted any other animal,
or, indeed, a human being, can say
more? Ny horse Longellow will
never race again, because he has met
with an accident that will prevent it,
but not only was he the best and gamest
race.horse that | ever owned, but, in
my judgment, he WAS the best race
horse this or any other country has
known. Had he renamed sound to the
end of the race at Saratoga he would
have made time never dreampt Of, and
not only believe, but l ,eel quite GER
tain, that fit and well he could have
run our miles without whip or spur in
7:l2 | know not that his competitor
IN the Saratoga cup cannot do this also.
I can only say that | won't believe it
until he has done it.
"Leamington stood one season in
Kentucky. He got Lynchburg, En-
qlirer, Lyttleton and Long'ellow, the
,our best horses ever bred in thai
State in any one season. 1t is not as It
thev were tour out OF a hundred, but
they were the only tour that ever ran OF
that seasons get. Therefore | say
bennington was the best ere that we
ever bred from, and the man who
selected him on account OF his match
less torn, performances and breeding
against English prejudices, deserves
tre thanks OF the American brre iers.
The gentleman who owns him makes a
mistake in not keeping him in Ken
tucky, the home OF more good, sound
and well bred mares than any other
state or country in the world. IL my
opinion is cons dered OF any value, |
would say to breeders, get all the we'll
bred, on the dams SIDE, daughters OF
bennington, il you can and keep them
believe that crossed with the best sons
OF Lexington, such a. Kingfsrer or
Harry Ba-sett, they will produce all
the winners Of the next twenty years,
that will not come from Longiellow,
the son OF bennington. must not
forget to correct the impression made
bv a statement about Bobby Swan,
that refused to allow him, tor certan
reason, to ride my horse at Long
Branch. Such was not the case.
