This subject, says T. +. Kinsel, In
the Ohio Farmer, Is Of great import
ance, not only 10 farmers, but to all
who own or drive horses. A colt inn
properly traioed TO harness may, by
bad conduct, endanger the life Of the
driver at any time. | have trained
good many colts To drive double and
single, and to bride. To get a good,
true, trusty team, | would rather
have two OF the same age and train
them together, first to double and
then to singls harness. would never
try TO handle a colt without using
"the cord" to teach him that he can
he handled at will. The idea of try
ing TO break a colt by main strength
has long since been exploded, and
has been the cause Of upsetting the
mans temper and teaching the colt a
lesson he never ought to learn, viz /:
that he Is stronger than his master.
Ii man keeps his temper and knows
what he wants the colt to do, aud
patiently teaches him, I have the
first one 10 see that ever refused to
do the work called for when he
understood the order of CON-
mand. A horse has moro sense
than he Is generally credited with
and when treated with good judg-
ment in the first handling rarely
turns out vicious. They ought to bt
handled with harness on before they
are hitehed up, AMI the work o1ghI
TO be thoroughly and patiently done.
Farmers have too little time and ex.
pect entirely too much of q young
colt when first hitched up. know
q party in Kentucky who sells score
of colts yearly, aud he stated to m,
that he was in the habit OF training
all his weanlings TO walk about littl
light sulky, and they never forge
it. BY patience a well bred hors
can be taught anything that belong
to his business, but not by force o
cruelty. You may whip and driv,
the dunghill 4sorse, but with hottie
blood a different course is necessary
1t is strange, too, how poorly traine
farmers horses are, when it woul
pay so well tohave them handy, safe
trusty and prompt when in haEnes:
A man from a city will pay a goo

in safety to himself and family.

This remirds me Of rather curious
case that has been pending before the
Office several years. Thomas Jefferson,
private in the Fifty.second United
States infantry, was, during the winter
Of 1863, for come trivial ofense COM
mitted to the guard house by field
officers court. lie remained there all
night, and his feet and legs we're SO
badly frozen that IL was necessary to
ampntate them both. He applied for
pension, but for ono reason or anotb-
er his case MAS not acted upon. About
year ago it WIS passed upon by Dep
uty Commissioner Clark, but is now
again before the Office on recommit-
rnent. The pension for the less Of both
legs IL the same as for the loss Of both
cycs-- s72 per month and as this man
is entitled to pension from the date Of
the injury, hc will receive about
$4,000.
The widow Of Abraham Lincoln re.
Gently returned from Europe, and it is
said will make Washington her home.
She arrived on the same steamer that
brought Sara Bernliart and the crowd
that welcomed the actress rudely Push
ed aside poor Mrs. Lincoln. A jour
nalist Of my acquaintance relates the
the following story about Mrs. Lincoln's
life at the White House. lie says /:
"In 1862 came from Richmond, a
paroled prisoner Of war, and called at
the White House, by appointment, at 8
o'clock in the morning. Capt. Watts,
then the major domo, received me, and
we were taking quiet sip Of Scotch
whisky, when an excited footman came
in and cried, "Cap'n, the old woman
wants yerf 'All right said Watts,
pIacidly. Two seconds afterwards the
door again opened With tell ye the
old woman wants yc she's raising hi
down stairs" Such was the domestic
life of the wife OF President, and MIRA
Lincoln, unfortunately for herself, has
as little respect shown her now as in
the days OF her greatest social promi-
nenee. PHoxo.

In Utah the saints march TO tho
polls and vote in a solid phalanx ex-
actly according to the eut-and-dried
priestly program. And not only the
masculine saints, but the feminine
as well who sre admitted to the suf-
frage on tbs siest Of conditions. No
tax-payins s.ificalion is demanded
from the feminine voter, and if she
be a wife, no matter how recent her
importation from the wiIds of Wales
or the sIums OF London, or how frac-
tional her claim upon her husband,
she wIelds a ballot at the disp sal of
the church. The Mormon papers oc-
casionally protest that there is no con-
nection between Church and State in
Utah, but it is obvious that the very
existence of the Church depends on
the strictest political unity. In the
early Nanvoo days the Mormons
achieved the balance OF political pow
or in Illinois, and the popular odium
which they drew upon themselves by
their use OF it was one of the chief
factors in their expulsion from the
state. The saints now hold Utah / n
a relentless grip, while through their
colonies they have tae balance of pow
er in Idaho, Wyoming and Arizona,
with the prospect of obtaining it in
Nevada, Colorado and New Mexico.
