no lack of talent.
On Monday, IA young son OF John
Esq, while playtully driv-

yard, caused a valuable colt to jump
over a pile of manure, under the
shed. While in the act of jumping,
the animals head came in contact
with timber and fell lifeless in the
yard, never moving a muscle, nor
even breaking the skin. Mr.. Ed

but too expensive for every day oc-
curence.
