The Expectation Of Horses.

A company was formed recently in
England for the purpose of importing
horses from the United States and Can
ala. II bore the name of the British
Empire Horse Supply Association. and
Its object was to improve the stock OF
horses in Great Britain. and supply the
constantly increasing demand for su-
perior horses for hunting and racing.
The inadequacy of the home supply Of
good, sound horses. and the high prices
consequent upon this, have been much
discussed in England, and many we'll
known men of high rank joined this
company. The capital stock was Goo, :
0U0. The work of buying horses and
shipping them was begun in Canada,
and about 400 were sent across the
ocean. But the buyers employed by
the company did not secure superior
animals, and the project failed.
The need of new blood, however, re.
mains, and owing to the demand for
horses from this country, and the good
prices received, company is being
formed in this city to take up the work
Of the Horse Supply Association. The
stockholders will consist of Americans
and Englishmen who are interested in
horsefesh. G.. w. Bishop, who went to
England with Pierre Lorillard's horses,
stated recently that the expectation OF
horses from this city was largely car
ried on at present. One firm sends an
nually to the West Indies 1000 horses
and mules. Large numbers of horses
have been sent to England and France
I t,,to Thu D,.oa.a which
sailed few days ago, carried twenty
horses to Liverpool, and four others,
which MIR. Bishop lately brought from
Maine, will be sent to the South of
France to breeding stable which will
be established there. Mr.. Lorillard
also sent by this vessel another racer to
his brother-in-law. The horses from
this country, especially from Kentucky,
have o high reputation in England.
They are valued for weight-carrying
qualities, in which they are much su-
perior to the English hunters. At
recent sale in Yorkshire, the prices for
American saddle-horses ranged from
$500 to $3.50. These horses are not in
much demand here, and may be pur-
chased for comparatively low prices.
According to the latest authorities, there
are in this country over 5000, 900
horses, while Great Britain has only
1000, 900. Illinois alone has more than
1000, 900 horses. That there is good
opportunity for large profits from the
expectation and sale OF fine animals, If
the business is managed with sufficient
care to exclude all inferior stock, is the
opinion of the best informed horssmen
of this city.--N. Y. Tribune.

Wise Sayings.

The great man is he who does not
lose his child's heart.
To be dumb for the remainder of
life is better than to speak falsely.
Verify hypocrites sink into lower
abyss than any other sinners.-Mo-
BANNED.
Make but few explanations; the
character that cannot otherwise defend
itself is not worth vindicating.
The reputation of man is like his
shadow--gigantic when it precedes
him, and pigmy in its proportions
when it follows him.
A friendship that makes the least
noise is very often the most useful; for
which reason I should prefer prudent
friend to O jealous one.
There is one single fact which one
may oppose to all the wit and argu-
ment of infidelity that no
man ever repented of being a Chris
tian on his death. bed.-Hannah More.
Life is in living. The marble palace
is not always the bower of love. Every
kind word is a flower, which will
beautify our final home. Every good
deed is an evergreen which will mark
our resting place.
Besides the pleasure derived from
acquired knowledge, there lulks in the
mind of man and tinged with a shade
of sadness an unsatisfactory longing
for something beyond the present-a
striving toward religions yet unknown
and unopened.
Let the honor of thy fellow-man be
as dear to thee as thine own; be as
careful of his property as thine own.
True charity, in order to brave every
vicissitude of life, must be free from
all worldly considerations, like the love
Johnathan bore to David.-Je,sish
1dlmud.
It is not what we earn but what we
save that makes us rich. It is not
what we eat but what we digest that
makes us strong. It is not what we
read but what we remember that
makes us learned. It is not what we
intend but what we do that makes us
useful, It is mott few faint wishes
but lifelong struggle that makes rs
valiant.

Women to French Eyes.

When Time spares beauty he COM
pletes it.
Women do not read; they listen with
the eye.
A woman would sooner rule heart
than fill it; not so man.
Friendship between women is only q
suspension of hostilities.
A woman need not recall her age,
but she should not forget it.
A woman listens to play with her
mind, and judges it with her senses.
1t takes rs much wit not to displease
a woman as it takes to please her.
A woman's friendship is, as q rule,
the legency of love or the aims of in
difference.
Heaven gave women tongues to ask
questions with, and eyes to give an
swers with.
1t is surprising how near age brings
a woman to death, and how little it
prepares her for it.
The woman who confides to one man
her Partially for another seeks advice
less than an avowal.
We are always anxious to know why
we are loved; they only care to know
how much We love them.
In church, women think that they
receive because they observe, and that
they are meditating when they are only
holding their tongues.

Ten Rules for Young Men.

Always pick up hot poker by the
cold end.
Never spend your money when you
can get things for nothing.
Do not dispise a twenty cent cigar
or q 90 90 dinner because another man
pays for it.
Remember that it costs more to 20
to high priced theater, than it does
to take back pew in free church.
Nothing is troublesome to you that
other people do for you willingly.
Never pay to-day the man you can
put of till tomorrow.
Never trouble yourself to do for an
other what he can do just as we'll for
himself.
Never buy what you don't want,
simply because the man says he is Just
out of it.
Do not poultice your own elbow for
the boil on another mans neck.
When angry, be sure you can handle
your man before you call him liar.

Love AND A RHINoCERos.- Cupid has
perched upon the horns of raging
rhinoceros in Paris and pierced the
heart of q piquant nursemaid. At the
Jardin DIES Plantes, q rising young
sculptor, who was studying animals,
made the acquaintance of q pretty girl
in nursery service, who speedily
brushed him aside and took up with a
soldier. The desolate young artist
thereupon took to writing upon all the
walls the heart-cry, II love Adele"
hoping that it would meet her eye and
touch her heart. The wilful girl, deter
mined to escape this perpetual reproach
of her pertidy, at last made her habitual
resort the iron bench in front of the rhi-
noceros. The seat could not be writ
ten on, and there was no wall. She
and her soldier would sit there by the
hour, watched from afar by the jealous
and distracted lover. At last they came
at the usual hour, and the faithless girl
glanced at the huge and ferocious aui-
NAL. On its horns was carved heart,
beneath which were the words, ~ still
love Adele; am waiting at the duck
pond" How could a woman's heart
resist this Tears came to her eyes /;
the soldier was given the cold shoulder,
and the nursemaid said to her youth
full charges, "Come, my dears, let us
go and see the pretty ducks"

The Springfield (Mass.) Union says.
"The importation of French, Norman
and Percheron horses to this country
is continually on the increase. Since
1872 one gentleman in Illinois alone
has brought from France nearly 100
stations land few mares), from which
an almost incredible number of offspring
have descended, and again have pro-
duced foals to all appearance as high
bred as the imported stock. For heavy
work they are incompatible, and ns
their value becomes known they fill
also many a place as roadsters, where
both strength and speed is desired.
The average weight OF u stallion is from
l, 400 pounds to 1000 pounds, while
most of the grades resulting in crosses
with common mares weigh from l, 200
pounds to 900 pounds.

The law requires that all patented
articles shall be so labeled by the
maker, together with the date OF the
patent. If this is not done, the in
ventor can claim no damages for an in
fringement, unless it can be proven
that the infrinRer has received due
notice of his trespass. The fine for
marking an unpatented article as "pa-
tented" is 800 for every offense, one
half to 60 to the informer.

October 14th. 1878. it sold at So 8 4, a
fuctuation of 9 8 per cent. in seven

RICHMOND, Aug. 26.--At an
early hour this morning a fire broke
out in R. FL. Whitlock's tobacco
bag mandatory at the corner of
Eighteenth and Carey streets, and
before the flames could be gotten
under control that extensive estab-
lishment, together with the large
brick tobacco factory of Tempin &
Bro, adjoining on the east, was
totally destroyed. The row of
frame houses on the south
side of Carey street sus-
tanned severe dammage as
also did the brick tobacco factory of
Jackson, Turpin & Co., on
Eighteenth street, west of the box
factory: The building occupied by
Turpin & Bro, which was destroyed,
was well known as "Castle Thun.
der" and was used during the wal
as prison house for both Federal
and Confederate prisoners. The
total loss is estimated at from sixty
to seventy five thousand dollars:
The insurance will cover about hall
the loss.

The Yazoo Tragedy.

AToHIsoN, Aug. 23,-The Cham
piom will publish in the morning o
letter written by Fl. M. Dixon, the
victim of the Yazoo mob, to friend
in this city, dated only a week be-
fore his death. In it he says he
would gladly leave that country if
he could get away, and intended to
do so as soon as possible. The
Champion asserts in an editorial
article that the letter was received
here several days before Dixon's
murder and written, not by Dixon,
but by citizen of Yazoo, which
asserted that Barksdale agreed, if
nominated for Chancery Clerk, to
drive Dixon from the country, and
that Barksdale's nomination was
made with this understanding.
There are several citizens of this
city who knew Dixon well, and they
all contradict the stories that he
was man of bad character. They
say that, on the contrary, he was a
large-hearted, generous gentleman,
and that last year, during the yell
low fever epidemic, he won general
praise for the courage and humanity
he exhibited in caring for the sick.

One day last week we were invited
to the depot at this place to witness
the workings of one of the wonderful
inventions of the age. The inventor,
Mr.. John X. Hawkins, of Bulbs Gap,
Tenn. is mere boy in point of age,
but certainly full grown man intel
lectualIy.
He has invented what may be
termed q railroad clock, that is intend
ed to announce the Station, and the
time, minute and hour of the arrival
of the trains, and from what we can
learn it has proved q success.
Just before arriving at q Station, the
name Of the station appears, between
two parallel lines. The hour and
minute that the train is due at each
station is so plainly indicated that
anyone who can read can tell exactly
the time of the trains arrival at each.
A dial is printed on the glass front
also, and hands behind or under it, in
dicate the minute and hour.
It will answer thousands of ques-
tions for conductors, and save brakes
men from calling out the name OF
stations, and at the same time prove a
great acquisition in point of conven-
ieDce TO the travelling public.
The E. r., V. & Ga. Railroad Com
pauy presented this young Inventive
genius with complimentary pass over
| their road, for the purpose Of testing
the practicability of his invention,
aud have since secured the rightto the
nse Of the clock. one of which Mr..
| Hoxsie now has in his Office, showing
two schedules, and will probably sOou
| have one with all the schedules, &c
that in second he can tell just when
any and all of his trains ought to be
in.
After discovering the practicability
of this invention, the Superintendent
Of the E. T., V. s. Ga. r r. Company
asked our young Inventive genius i
be could invent plan for coupling cars
without the hazaru OF going in between
them using the ordinary link and pin
and also requested him to visit tht
machine shops of the company; which
he did, and has now plan, that viii
be tested, and is believed to be the
very thing that meets this great wan
of the company, and relieves them
from any anxiety whatever as to dan
gers of this kind. IL has been said
because of the studiousness Of this
young Inventor, and his determined
disposition to acquire eminence, by
inventing something practical anC
useful, that he is crazy, but we have {
very suspicious notion of men wht
would thus attack a mere boy in thit
manner, and believe that If they ars
not crazy themselves, they are wors.
maligners of human character anG
very poor judges of she calibre o
others.-MOrristot0 Times.
