Electricity to Control Fractious Horses.

French ingenuity has invented a method of
controlling the most lractious horses without any
exertion on the part Of the driver The horse Of
the future is not to be driven by ordinary rcins,
but by electricity combined with them The
coachman is to have under his seat an electro
magnetic apparatus, which he works by means Of
a little handle. One wire is carried through tho
rein to the Bit and another /" the crupper, 50 that
. current once set up goes the entire length of
the animal along he spine. A sudden shock
will, we arc grayely assured, stop the most ylo-
lent runaway or the most obstinate ibber. The
creature however strong and however vicious, Is
''at once transformed into sort Of nOhcnsye
horse of wood, with the feet hrmly nailed to tho
ground" Curiously enough the very opposite
result may be produced by q succession Of small
shocks. Under the influence Of these the verlest
screw can bo suddenly endowed with vlsor and
nre indescrlbablo. What Is the effect upon the
condition Of the horse is not stated, but the Steele
cOngratulates NJ. =. Fanchcr upon IAN invention
equally original and salutary,n and one which
places in the hands evon OF an infant apOWer over
