Notes Of O,Uat0nna Horses.

An occasional correspondent, whose contri-
buttons are always welcome, furnishes us
with the following notes of horses and owners
in and about Owatonna--the headquarters of
as intelligent, enterprising and gentlemanly
horse breeders and horse men as are to be
found in this or any other state. Our cor
respondent says
Mr.. Nash, OF Waverly, Iowa, has leased the
trotting park of Col. Chambers, for this sea-
son, and has already commenced handling a
few horses, and Others will be added to his
string from time to time. Mr.. Nash is spoken
of very highly as a driver and gentleman, and
Will undoubtedly be heard from during the
trotting meetings.and fairs. Mr.. Nash has a
fine Bashaw stallion, standing Is hands, color
bay, that he will track this summer. He is a
very stylish horse, and has nice open gait
that will commend him. Mr.. II. has two of
Mr.. Irving's horses which he has commenced
working little, preparatory for good hard
work when the track will admit. These colts
are full brother and sister. They were sired
by Abdallah BIRD, he by Coupon, and he by
the Hero of Chester. His dam was a mare
formerly owned by Horace Pratt, of Faribault,
and think sired by Magma Charta, Jr. These
colts are very handy and will make fine pole
team, at present showing good speed.
Mr.. Nash has also colt, Bay Frank, owned
by DIR. Hill. This colt was bred and raised by
Col. Chambers, of this place; sired by Bashaw
Mambrino, dam by Hers Edwin Forest.
This colt, barring accidents, will make some
body's colt take low record. He is certainly
a very superior colt, both as regards his
breeding and his way of going.
Col Clarke Chambers, of this city, the i'm
porter and breeder of blood horses, has Ba-
shaw Mambrino at the head of his stud This
stallion was sired by Woodford Mambrino,
who has eight inside the magic circle, the
same number that Sentinel, the sire of Col.
Kittson's stallion, Won Arnim, has. The dam
of Bashaw Mambrino is Madam Dudley, &C.,
&c. This popular stallion is full brother of
the stallion lately purchased by Mr.. Tracy for
the sum of $4,000, to stand at the head of the
Marshfield stud. Bashaw Mambrino is IL
years old, and is looking and feeling as fine as
colt. He will stand in the stud, and as his
colts are so promising, We predict for him
big run. Col. Chambers has large stud of
horses, all finely bred and very promising.
Prince Arthur, owned by Hon. n. Hastings,
is wintering finely and is as speedy as ever. 1t
is to be hoped Mr.. II. will let his friends see
him make low record
Susie, the black mare owned by Mr.. Brow
nell, and known as the Veasie mare, has just
been sold to a party at Winnipeg at good
round figure. Mr.. B. says she has more
speed than ever this spring.
S. Lun's Colt, by Mambrino Gift; dam
Zephyr, ETC., ETC., bred by that astute horse
man g. A. B. Shaw, st. Paul, is winteripg
well and now stands 15% hands, color bay.
He is very strong made and well developed
colt, but has never been driven for speed,
NJ. Toher still handles the ribbons over Ice
berg, IL years old this spring. Iceberg was
sired by Iceberg, owned think by a Mr..
Chase near Sparta; dam Lady Virginia, a
thoroughbred. This stallion is 15X hands
high, weighs LOO pounds, color bay-brown.
Mr.. TOher has given up the idea of entering
him in the eastern circuit, and will like Van
dcrbilt keep him for his own driving: Mr..
Toher has two colts by Magma Charta, the
dams sired by Edwin Forrest, owned at West
Mitchell, Iowa. These colts are coming three
this spring are 15X hands high, good high
clock work action they are good enough for
lord.
J. Brown has two very fine colts. One by
Abdallah Bird, dam by Abdallah Clay; this
spring; color, dark bay; 14Sl hands; has a
clipping gait The other colt is sired by Alti-
tude, dam fine road mare. This is an extra
colt.
Marshall Jones has full brother to the
4-year old mentioned above. This colt is 5
years old and is a fine locker and mover.
DR.. William A. Ware is the owner of the
stallion Abdallah Clay and the stallion Man,
brine Eclipse by Alhambra, dam Minnesota
Belle. This horse has good low record and
bothers the stations that get to the front any
quicker than he does He will probably be
tracked this summer. DR.. Ware has Lyndale
Messenger colt (alias VIM. PENN, dam Mime
sofa Belle (record 2:34); 4-years old, and stands
15x hands.
]. Newsalt has fine filley, sired, / think, by

plenty of bottom, and Newsalt says, ''Boys,
she's daisy, all the same"
Chas. Hastings, the popular landlord of the
city, has fine carriage team, and with Mr.. H
