The sale OF short horns on the spIendi1
farm owned by ]. c. Stone Jr. yesterda!
afternoon was one of the most importan
events of the present decade from the lac
| that good blooced stock has been scattered
about through our own county and Others il
the State, which will in years to come, mak'
thousands OF dollars for the people who hav,
invested and raised the grade from what Il
has been TO one that may even cause a jeal
| ousy in the cattle country across the Atlantic
| THE GROUNDS
which are naturally handsome and which
| General Stone takes pride in keeping in ex
cellent condition, never looked better than
they did yesterday. His comfortable resi-
dence half hidden from view among the
| trees, made a fine back ground for the picture
ofthe large white tent in which were hundreds
| of gentlemen, some accompanied by ladies.
Outside of and near the tent was a collection
of as fine stock of the COW species as ever ex'
hibired in the West, if we may quote the
| sentiments of the III any who saw them be-
fore the sale.
THE SALE.
At one o'clocs, the time for the COM
mencement of the sale, fully seven hundred
people were on the grounds. Col. l.. p.
Muir took the platform and rapidly disposed
of the stock, closing the sale at six O'Clock
with neat speech IN which he said he had
sold stock in twenty one States and had new.
er before met with so many gentlemen who
acted like gentlemen, ana that he had never
before made so good an average in sales in
the first herd
The total number of head sold, 50; total
amount 81, ,695; average on heifers, s2Oi 69 av
erage on bulls, sISS and a fraction; average on
entire stock, slJ6.
