How to Judge q Horse.

The following very simple rules will
he found useful to al parties intending
to buy . horse:
!. Never take the sellers word If
dishonest, he will be certain to cheat
you II disposed to be fair, he may have
been the @upe Of another, and will de-
ceive through representations that cam
not b. relied on.
2. Never trust q horses mouth AZ a
sure index to his age.
8. Never buy horse while in motion :,
watch him while at rest and you will
discover his weak points. II sound. he
will stand squarely on his limbs, with
out moving any Of them, the feet plant
ed fiat upon the ground, with legs plump
and naturally poised. II one foot is
thrown forward with the toe pointing to
the ground and the heel raised, or IL the
foot is taken from the ground and the
weight taken from it, disease Of the
navicular bone may be suspected, or ut
least tenderness, which is q precursor of
disease. II the foot IL THROWN out, the
toe raised and the heel brought down,
the horse has suffered from lannlatis,
or the back sinews have been spralned,
and he IL of little value. When the feet
are all drawn together beneath the horse,
If there has been no disease there is a
displacement of the limbs ut least and a
weak disposition of the muscles. II the
horse stands will, his feet spread apart
or straddles with his hind legs there IL
weakness Of the loins and the kidneys
are disordered. When the knees are
bent and the legs t0tter and tremble. the
beast has been ruined by hard pulling
and will never be right again, whatever
rest and treatment he may have. Con-
tracted or Informed ho0fs speak for
themselves.
4. Never buy q horse with . blush or
milky cast in bis eyes. This indicatesa
constitutional tendency to opthalmia,
moon blindness, etc.
5. II the horses hind legs are SCARED,
that fact denotes that he IL q kicker.
6. II the knees are blemished, the
horse IL apt to stumble.
Z. When the skin 10 rough and harsh
and does not move easily and smoothly
to the touch, the horse IL heavy eater
and his digestion IL bad.
8. Avoid q horseswhose respiratory or
gans are at all impaired. II the ear be
placed ut the side Of the heart, and q
Wheeling sound Is heard, It is an indi-
cation Of trouble.-1Hrf, Field and

by Justice Of the Supreme Court. The
complainant, Francis p. Weed. of this
city, chargs Hedges and VIM. N. Scott,
the latter now dying of consumption in
California, with cheating ut games, and
an old conspiracy to defraud. 1t Is stat
cd that the three played game Of poker
in this city in June of last year, betting
Sl5OOO Ona single hand, and that Weed
and Hedges lost. Weed now charges
that the hands were put up by Hedges
and Scott. they to divide the winnings.
Weed had recently received from the es-
tate Ut his deceased father fortune e.
timated ut about 350OyOO. OF the
amount lost, it is stated that Weed has

THB GOOD OLD DAYS.
By q DiaguOeod Pedestrian.

He had sauntered wistfully by the
two-bit restaurant with the dir Of man
who was called for and was sorry he
couldn't come. His hungry eye fell on
the glue-pot In the MINER sanctum, 50
he waltzed in and sat gently down in
the exchange fiend's chair, taking care
not to spring the knees Of his summer
before last pants. Said he: This coasts
gone, all broke up, and the honest miner
is no longer q prince. Why, do you
know that IN ~ the average wages
made by miners was from go to so per
day, and in rich diggings as high as
$500 to $5|W per week, or ut the rate of
sl5, quo to 81, 900 per year? In half IN
hour l once took out 5000 in gold!
Think of that, will you! And now
why bust my crust If I've seen two bits
for two weeks! I have even c0nde-
scendetl to ask for bread, and they give
me stone. l believe it = these internal
walking matches that have exhausted
the synlpathies of this community!
Why, I knocked ut the door of u hand
some brick house Oh Wyoming street
this morning. aud told the lady when
she came t. the door that I had walked
up from Rocker without u bit to eat,
and don't you think she had the gall to
ask me how many laps made the last
half hour, and whether my ankle straps
were all O. H., and how my trunks held
out, finally recommending ME t" cat
nothing but mutton chops and dry toast
and not t" stop running any longer
than I could help, as the (railrtn.tl)
track between here and Ogden was very
wearing"
