Edueatfng Horses.

The Yamhill Co. (OregOn) Re
porter gives some excellent hints il
regard to educating horses, which W,
cOpyi
Horses can be educated to the ex
tent of their understanding as wei
as children, and can be easily dam
aged or ruined by bad management
We believe that the great difference
found in horses as TO various habits
or reliability, comes more from tht
different management of men, thar
from variance of natural disposition
in the animals. Horses with -higl
mettle are more easily educated thar
those of less or duller spirits, anC
are more susceptible to ill-training
and consequently may be good o.
bad, according to the education they
receive.
Horses with dull spirits are not BY
any means proof against bad man
agement, for in them may often be
found the most provoking obstinacy
and vicious habits of different char
acter, that render them almost en-
tirely worthless. Could the com.
ing generation of horses in this
country be kept from the days
of their colthood to the age of hve
years in the hands of good, care
ful managers there would be seen a
vast difference in the general char,
acter of the noble animals.
If "a colt is never allowed to get
an advantage, it will never know
that it possesses a power that man
cannot control, and if made familiar
with strange objects it will not be
skittish and nervous. If a horse is
accustomed from his early days to
have objects hit him on the heels,
back and hips, he will pay no atten-
tion to the giving out of a harness
Or wagon running against HIM at
an unexpected moment. .sz
We once saw an aged lady drive
hlgh-spirlted horse, attached to a
carriage, down a steep hill, with no
hold back straps upon the harness,
and she assured us there was no dan
ger, for her son accustomed his hors-
es to all kinds of usages and sights
that commonly drive the animal in
to frenzy of fear and excitement.
A gun can be fired from the back
of horse, an umbrella held over his
head, buffalo robe thrown over his
neck, railroad engine passed close
by, his heels bumped with sticks,
and the animal take all as a natural
condition of things, if only taught
by careful management that he will
not be hurt thereby.
There is great need of improve
ments in the management of this no.
BILE animal; less beating wanted, and
more of education.

Has Bussness Really Improved: /:

As-t@AS ~ :
The New York Public (the cleaner OF
financial statistics) says not-a. least not
materially. That paper Of Thursday
says that "businets has struck a sand.
bar" and proceeds to prove it as fol.
lows:
Until October l there was quite en-.
couragiug improvement. Had i. contin.
ued in iull proportion, the bank ex.
changes At the twelve chief cities for two
weeks OF October would have reached
81 ,450, 100000, without any increase Of
stock transactions here 10 swell the ac.
gregate. Instead, we have exchange
amounting to only 81, ,2S5, SIS, ,2Ol, against
81, ,2s5, ,917, 1854 during the corresponding
weeks last year-an increase Of only
$50, ,270, 900; and yet the sales Of stock
were larger by $4,000 shares than those
OF the two weeks last year, which
would occasion an increase OF at
least S42,000000 in exchanges. In
addition, there were heavy payments
last week, amounting TO many
millions In settlement for four per cent
bonds. Moreover, the operations OF sey.
eral large banks At San Francisco, which
were not In the clearing house last wear,
are now included, adding probably more
than 81 ,00O, 900 each week 10 the recorded
exchanges, but not to the actual ransac.
tons. Thus the aggregate gain disap.
pears, Notwithstanding the large increase
in grain operations, amounting 10 nearly
30 per cent at Milwaukee. Inspite Of the
grain movement, Chicago returns decliu-
ing exchanges; but for that movement
loss would probably appear at Cincinnati
