The Big stock Sale al EweIrs Station

The Big stock Sale al EweII's Station.
Last Tuesday was the time appointed
for the second joint sale of trOtting aud
saddle horses, shorL-horn, Devon and
Jersey cattle, SOuthdOwU and COtswOld
sheep, the property of ThOs. Gibson, JAS
L. johnson, and Campbell Brown, at Ew-
ellis Station. The day dawned beauti
fully, and when the nine clock trains
carried their loads of passengers to the
station, the sun shOne brightly and there
was but little indication of rain. Very
soon, however, the sky was overcast, and
before Capt. p. c. Kidd, the eloquent and
incompatible auctiOner, had sold many
horses, 1t began to sprinkle which finally
ended IN a pouring rain. 1t was quite
amusing to see one hundred men squat.
urg under twenty-five umbrellas. The
horses were sold remarkably low, cspe-
clelly In the beginning, Capt. Whltthorue,
OF this place, buying a grandson of Rys
dicks uambletOnian, for SllO, the origi-
mol cost of which was $3.50. As the ga e
proceeded, however, and the bidders
warmed up, the animals brought better
prices. About two hundred J e SONS were
present, many of whom were from other
counties and States. When the sale was
over, an excellent barbecued dinner was
eaten. 1t is Il noticeable fact that our
farmers do not bid literally at these sales,
the bidding usually being confined TO a
few men. They did better yesterday, how
ever, than they did at the first sale, and
it is hoped that they will finally grow to
fully appreciate the great advantages
offered by these sales Middle Tennessee
is unsurpassed in America as a stockrais-
Using section, and ought to be stocked with
the best animals in the world and in no
way can it be done 50 well as 10y patron
izing these sales. Below we give a list of
animals with pedigrees, sold;
