managing a vicious morse.

A beautiful and high-spirited horse
would never allow q shoe to be put on his
feet or any person to handle his feet, with
out resort to every species of power and
means to control him. At one time he
was nearly crippled by being put in the
stocks; he was afterwards thrown down
and iettered at another time, one of our
most experienced horse-shoers was unable
to manage him by the aid Of as many
hands as could approach. In an attempt
to shoe this horse, recently, he resisted all
efforts, kicked aside everything but an an
WI, and came near killing himself against
that, and finally was brought back to his
stable unshod. This was his only defect !;
in all other respects he was gentle and
perfectly docile, and especially in harness
But this defect was just on the eve of con-
signing him to the plough, where he might
work barefoot, when, by mere accident, an
officer in our service, lately returned from
Mexico, was passing. and being made ac-
quainted with the difficulty, applied a COM
pletc remedy by the following simple pro-
cess: He took a cord about the size of q
common BEDFORD, put it in the month of the
horse, like bit, and tied it tightly on the
animals head. passing his left ear under the
string, not painfully tight, but tight enough
TO keep the car down aud the cord in its
place. This done, he patted the horse
gently on the side Of the head, aud com
manded him to follow, and instantly

The following anecdote is told oil the
Shah's visits to England: One day at a
grand dinner dish of outlets was among
the viands served. The Shah took cut
let in his fingers and began to eat it with
out the aid Of knife or fork. The Prince
of Wales noticing this, and desiring to save
the Shah from the embarrassment aud
modification of discovering his mistake and
finding himself the subject of ridicule,
Immediately helped himself to outlet and
ate it in the same natural manner. Upon
this the entire company fell to eating
outlets in primitive style, and so the
Shah's amour propre was not wounded,
neither did he learn ON that occasion rig
orous law of table etiquette.

the horse obeyed. perfectly subdued and
as gentle and obedent as well-trained
dog; suffering his feet to be lifted with
entire IMMUNITY, acting in all respects like
an old stager. That simple string thus
tied made him as docile and obedent as
any one could desire. The gentleman
who thus furnished this exceedingly simple
means of subduing very dangerous pro-
pensity intimated that it is practised in
Mexico and South America in the man
agement Of wild horses. Be this as it
may, he deserves the thanks Of all own
ers Of such horses, and especially of those
whose business it may be to shoe or groom
