Profits Of Horse Raising.

We have seen copy Of tic George
town (ky.,) Tines, which describes
rcccnt sale Of Thoroughbred horses
by a. j. Alexander, Of that county,
and as an evidence of the lucrative
character of the horse raising business
we give some of the figures, which
will prove interesting to horse owners
and dealers in stock. Firty-four colts
were disposed Of for $50, ,22O-priccs
ranging FROM $50 to $500; full
brother Of Kihgastcr bringing the
latter price Thirty eight thorough.
brcds 200 an average Of over
5000. Sixteen trottcrs sold for $>1,-
800 an average Of over $500. We
do not know that this sale was an eX-
ceptional one. 1t is q fair example
of the profitable characthr Of the bust
ness. Kentucky has grown wealthy
through the Efforts Of her horse dea.
lcrs, and is the great fountain Of sup.
ply for the thoroughbred stock Of the
country.

Liberal Democracy.

Tho New York Herald Of Sunday
contains letter from the Hon. w. s.
Grocsbeck Of Ohio, upon the politi.
cal issues Of tho day. Mr.. Grocs
beck believes that the old Democrat
ic party, after blundering for ten
years, surrendered finally at tho last
Presidential clcc: ion. 1t can not now
recall the concessions then made, and
it is too weak for victory. Ho pro-
poses new Organization, accepting
the results of tho war in good faith,
so as to command the confidence of
the people. There should BIO no OK:
clusivcnesss about it. 1t should be
composed Of present Democrats, form
or Democrats and all Republicans
hostile to the present. mihistration.
The platform should contain the fol-
lowing planks:
lst. An acceptance Of negro suf-
frage as an accomplished fact.
2d. Opposition to monopolios in all
forms.
Sd. Opposition to Capitalization of
power ut Washington as tending to
destroy self,dcpenilencc in the citi-
zen, and make him subject.
4,h. Adoption of free trade as q
cardinal doctrine.
9Th. A strict construction of the
Constitution.
This is tho PLATFORM UPON which
MIR. Groesbeck proposes to enter into
the canvass of 1876. Tho platform
is strong and might win if bur people
any longer adhered to principles
But in these days, platform means
nothing. The platforms of tho two
parties hayc for several years been
idontically the same, willie tho parties
themselves entertain entirely differ.
