FAST WALKING HORSES.

FAST WALKING HORSES.
While fast running, trotting and pacing
horses have each engaged the particular at
tention of breeders during the past half cen
fury, the fast walking horse has been total
ly neglected. The time will come when
the excess of production of the three classes
above named, over the demand, will greatly
In these columns that the production ofthor-
oughbred and trotting horses has been large
ly in excess of the death rate, that as a nee
essary sequence the stock III the country is
increasing from year to year, and that UNI
less q foreign demand be created, prices
must inevitably decline. Breeders should
therefore turn their attention more to the
production of fast walking horses, both for
the saddle and general draught. The BUSH
ness would pay handsomely, for the utility
and value OF such horses would soon be
properly appreciated, thus creating a steady
deman, which would not likely be dismissed
for the next halt century at least. On the
farm a slow-walking horse does not do half
the work that a rapid walker is able to ac-
complish. In towns and cities where draught
horses are used in the truck, cart, dray, etc.,
It is the same, not half the work is per-
formed by the slow walker, who crawls
along at q snaiPs pace, and when drawing a
load, cannot be galvanized into a rapid mo-
ton. AS a traveller, both under saddle and
In harness, the slow walker is a nuisance.
No matter what work he is engaged in,
time and money are lost to his ow.ler every
day that he lives. The sooner, therefore,
the whole tribe is carted to the glue factory
the better for our present progressive age.
Turf, Field and Farm.
The Rural World wisely says "Breed-
ers should pay attention to this matter. In
selecting a stallion to breed from, by all
means select one that can walk fast. A
slow walking stallion will be likely to get
slow walking colts; while the stallion that
has a long, rapid, spirited stride, will be
likely to beget colts with a similar action.
"Ihen there is a great deal in breeding
TO a horse with spirit or ambition. These
cold-blooded horses will beget cold-bIooded
colts. The nearer you can approach the
thoroughbred, even for obtaining a fast
walker, the better. There is game there,
and spirit and endurance, and stamina and
style. There are the neat, bony heads, the
prominent eyes, the small ears, the capa-
cious n%ostrils, the large lungs and chests,
the well developed muscle, the bones as
dense as ivory.
Even for walkers, then, get the nearest
to thoroughbred possible, and the same for
%trotters, and of course the same for runners.
4ou have then horses fit for any company
for any purpose-to haul the pillow. or
buggy, or carriage, or to carry you upon
their backs. Breed horses that you will not
be afraid to have your friends see.,

that the injury done cannot be estimated j;
and the services of such an animal will new
err be accepted by all intelligent breeder, if
rendered as a gratuity.
The selection of the breeding ram, where
mutton Is produced, must be from the long
woods, or the Downs. If we make choice
from the former, we must be careful to have
an animal of stout and robust constitution.
These sheep have been so generally forced
with artificial food, that many of them lack
the hardness required for the farmers pur-
poses. What we must have, is a straight,
round barrel, on short legs, with short,
stout neck, and vigorous, masculine appear
ance about the head. The body should be
well covered with a long and l~ustrous sta
pie, of uniform quality. If the selection be
of the South Down breed, we should have
the same general form as here described,
but we ought to have a more compact and
snug carcass, with a good deal more weight
for bulk, than in the long wool breeds

GoLDTM1TH MA1D.-There is something
about the wonderful powers of endurance of
Goldsmith Maid, that attracts universal adj
miration. She has been on the turf con-
stantly, trotting bruising races, for ten
years past, and with each succeeding year
developing greater speed, and showing no
signs of decay. On the contrary, she seems
now, although in her twentieth year, a
stronger, %stouter, speedicr mare than ever
before. She has shown a mile this season,
in 2:l4, equal TO her hitherto best single
dash while her three heats at Buffalo, in
2:l6, Ella IA, 2:15, are nearly three seconds
faster thar any three consecutive heats ev-
er made by horse, mare or gelding. She

CHARLESTON, 8. c., Nov. 12.-The latest
corrected returns give the Democratic State
ticket 1878 majority. The Tilden electors
In 13 out of 80 counties ran 712 behind the
State ticket. Gov. Chamberlain claims the
state for the Republicans BY two thousand.
The Democrats are still confident that
the State has gone for Tiljen and Hamp.
ton. Section %, chapter 8 of the revised
statute provides that the Secretary Of State,
Comptroller General, Attorney Grneral.
State Treasurer, Adjutant and Inspector
Generals, and the Chairman OF the Com
nit,ee on Privileges and Elections of the
House of Representatives shall constitute
the Board of State Canvassers, four OF
whom shall be a sufficient number to form
the board. The following are the board:
Henry E. Hayne, colored, Secretary OF
State: Thos. g. Dunn, white, Comptroller
General; VIM. Stone, white, Attorney Gen :
eral; F. L. Cardozo, colored, State Treas
urer; H. W. Pu, Wis, colored, Adjutsnt and
Inspector General; N. j. Hirsch, chairman
of the Com mittee on Privileges and Elections;
of the House of Representatives. All the
members of the Board of Canvassers are
Republicans. Cardoze and Dunn are candi-
dates for reelection. Hirsch, who Is can
didate for Solicitor of the Third Judicial
Circuit is not acting with the Board of Can
vassers at this time.
Hayne, Cardoza, Dunn, Stone and Purvis
constitute the Board of Canvassers as now
organized. The Board claims the right to
decide who are elected, and there Is no ap-
peal from their decision except to the courts.
In case of governor and lieutenant governor
however, the final decision rests with the
Legislature, unless there is contest Tor
county officers, when county canvassers de-
eide who are elected. 1n this particular
instance the State Board of CanVassers oc :
cupy delicate and important trusts, as they
are called upon to decide upon their own
election; three members of the Board being
candidates for re- election. The decision OF
the Board, in throwing out votes In any
county, for alleged frauds, virtually ends the
matter so far Us they are concerned. Every
thing appears to be quiet. There Is no ex :
citement to-day, but all are anxiously walt

A number of prominent citizens from oil
