Noticing that your correspondent, in writ
ing up the Mortified notes, had omitted
noticing Bushnell s. Hubbard's very valuable
stallion "Hughey Angus" formerly owned by
E T. Archibald, OF Dundas, one OF the best
Judges OF horses Ito my notion) IN the west,
herewith submit il as follows: "Hughey
Angus foaled May Is, 1874; sire Swigert, by
Aiexander's Norman, he by the Morse Horse;
1st dam by Richards Bellfounder, by Hun
gerford's Butcher; Cd dam by White Stocking,
son of Richards Bellfounder. Swigert's dam
Blondina by Msmbrino Chief. Blondina's
dam the Burch mare by Brown Pilot, etc.
You will observe that he is full brother to
Calamus as well as others. This stallion is
1873, should Judge, fine style, good locker,
and can show you 80 clip any day, though
never worked for speed, and what is still bet
ter, he is a splendid stock getter, all his colts
being fiue movers. How fast they will be
time only will tell. One of them is old enough
to stand track work. The colt allude to is
four this spring do not know of poor
mover among all OF his get. Mr.. Marrett, of
your city, has certainly fine two-year old by
Hughy, as well as two others. All OF which
have been noticed in the GLOBE. Should he
be given an opportunity 10 serve some fine
trOtting bred mares, his get will be very Gag
erlV sought after
Chas. Smith, of Cannon Falls, has some fine
Clydes, two fine mares and two fine
stations, viz: Sir William Wallace and
Lofty. The former is years old and weighs
1880 lbs. He was bred by Sir William Wal
lace aud was sired by Mr.. Clapp's Engiand's
Glory, grand sire Old England's Glory. Lofty
is a dappled bay, black points, weight 1850
lbs, is about II hands, and very stylish. He
is years old, and in many respects one of
the finest Clydes ever saw
Mr.. Smith is making the season with Lofty
a. Rochester, and thesfarmers in that vicinity
are to be congratulated on having such fine
opportunity to improve their draft stock.
They will now have chance to breed to a
pure bred. The other stallion Ike keeps in
Dakota county and is doing well with him.
While speaking of Clyde stations, wish
to announce the sale, to party at st. James,
Mimi, by S. Downie, the large importer and
breeder, of his 3 year old Clyde stallion, at a
good figure. The same party made good
liberal offer for some Clyde mares, but Mr..
D. could not spare them.
VIM. Stathburn of Rich Valley, Dakota coun-
ty, has fine Cleveland Bay stallion, that is
well spoken of-alarge, rangy, fine horse, just
the kind to get good rangy carriage horses.
S. Spearin of Empire, Dakota county, pur-
chased short time ago another fine Norman
stallion and left few days ago to purchase
still one more, thus giving him three Norman
stations for stud duty this year.
Dakota county will soon furnish some
fire horses for market. With such Clyde
stations as L. s. Follett of Hastings and
Chas. Smith have, and Normans owned by
L. Johnson, East Castle Rock; s. Spearin,
Empire; Mr.. Tohler, Hampton; John Ferly,
Pennington; Mr.. Fitzgerald, Rosemount; P.
Highland, Lakeville, and Sylvester Smith of
Pennington, the prospect for a good crop Of
ic MI nd
as for trotters, L. s. Follett of Hastings has
GAINESVILLE, by Milwaukee; Martin & Co.,
Archer's Almont, by Almont; Administra-
tor, Jr., by Administrator; Col. Van Auken,
by Green Mountain, and Mr.. Harrington's
stallion (have forgotten the name), by Green
Mountain, the trottiug interests will not
wane. And as a general purpose horse we
have Strathern's Cleveland Bay. Thus you
see that Dakota county rather leads other
counties in horses.
Query-Is it because the county is Demo-
cratic. Ell? Toe WEIGHT.
