have an immense amount of original matter
coming in Tor this department; and we ex-
pect to be able to give soon the history
and pedigree of the following famous hors
es hitherto unknown: Old Pilot, St. Law
renee, Columbus, dam of Royal George, North
American or Bullock Horse; Lady Surrey,dam
OF Henry Clay; Tom Thumb, &. 5. OF Green's
Bashaw; Leonidas, reputed e. $. OF Blggarts

This is pre-eminently the kind OF informa
ton that all gentlemen of intelligence DESIRE
and none such American can well afford to be
without this paper. 1t is the American gentle
mans paper Tor the history OF the horse. In
all such information there is included much
ocal and general history. Indeed, the trac-
ing of some of these pedigrees seems very
similar to romance, in which one sees not
only the animated bearing and noble action
OF the horse, but also the life and beauty OF
the country through which he travels.

fine stable in the city, and employed
me as veterinary. Socially and profess

The colt Clay Pilot was there, and Col
onel Morgan was very proud of him as a
specimen of his breeding. He said he
was by Neave's Clay, out of an old pac-
ing Pilot mare, and he would soon have
his dam upon the farm, which he did.
At this time Clay Pilot was between
three and four years old. | Judged by

on each side. He was a growthy colt,

do not think they realized how hard
they did drive; but almost daily they rat
tied him in and out from the farm, at top
of his speed all the way, simply because
the colt would do it.
Later in the season some mares arrived !;
and among them was Old Pilot Gas Col
onel Morgan called herr, the dam of his
colt, Clay Pilot; also black mare they
called Belle of Wabash. These mares
were all sent to the farm; but the colt
was kept in their city stables, as a road
horse.
Colonel Morgan died in st. Louis that
fall, after which Mr.. Stevens owned Clay
Pilot and the stock. The next year he
employed man named Williams. He
was six feet and four inches, and weighed
240 to $50 pounds. | have seen this man
Williams drive the colt until the blood
would run out of his nostrils, and call it
training him. In all my experience in
the army, and out of it, no horse ever
came under my notice which was so
abused as was that colt Clay Pilot. He
meyer showed tired, but was so game he
would go until he dropped dead, had a
man been able to drive as long as he
would 90. As | have before said, do
not think Colonel Morgan or Mr.. Stew

THE AFTERMATH.

The great reform Board of a year ago,
the Board that had 80 much money on
hand that they found 1t necessary to give
away 81, 900 of 1t to DOC" w. H. Norton,
without warrant of law, have placed their
successors " In box" to speak after the
"manner of meh." The great reform
Board, under the leadership of Norton,
Boosting of reducing the taxes 80 per cent,
all of which the boodlers had in previous
years stolen," &c, &C., does just exactly
what the unreiormed boards before their
time did-levied too small tax, getting
credit In the meantime Of superior wis
dom, business ability and all that sort of
thing-until the treasury ran empty, as 1t
practically is today. They simply hood
wink cd the people for the time with the
notion of low taxes, and exposed the hol-
lowness of their pretences and the sham
of their supposed ability to run the county
finances on wind.
No one likes to pay taxes-if he knows
It, Every business man feels relieved
when they are reduced-the lower the
better. But certain sum Is necessary to
run the county Of La Sale, pay Its obliga-
lions as they come due and the salaries of
Its officers. That sum Is practically fixed
charge on the people and Is not difficult to
reckon and cannot vary much from year to
year-always increasing When the mini
mum levy is reduced, as It was so per
cent last year, there is pretty sure to be a
deficit. That Is the cause of the present
trouble. II was q constantly recurring
trouble years ago-during the building Of
the Court House and before and after.
With this difference, however. Then, 1t
was possible for the county of La Sale to
borrow, to tide over the crisis, on Its note
of hand. There was no legal authority,
perhaps, for such loans; but the county g
bills were paid at the cost Of some interest
to the banks and individuals. After the
row raised by the boodler hunters over that
kind of business, 1t can hardly be expected
now they will have the nerve to attempt to
repeat this obnoxious plan for relief, even
II the men can be found who would loan
the county money on such terms and secu-
rity.
| II looks as though the county's credit
ors will have to walt for their moneys un-
til this years tax crop Is harvested-some-
where along about next March. And as
only Coo per 800 we're levied for 800,
It is altogether probable the same condi-
ton will occur again year from now.
The present bonded debt of La Sale
county is legacy Of this kind of manage
ment 1t represents the insufficient levies
of former years. AT this rate that legacy
is In fair way to be transmitted intact &c
a coming generation as yet unborn. II
is the more annoying because there really
ia no excuse for this condition Of things
The reform Board was anxious to make q
"record." They have made It; and the
countys creditors aud succeeding Boards
will pay for the music.
