How 20 Tell u Good Horse.

Unless q horse has brsins you cant
teach bin. See that tall bay there, fine
looking animal, fifteen hands high. You
can't teach that horse any thing. Why
Well, I'll show diff 'rencs IN heads, but
have q care OF bis heels. Look ct the
bru.es head. That rounding nose, that
iapering forehead. that broad. full place
before the eyes. You can't trust him.
That's an awful good mare. as true rs the
sun. You can zee breadth and fulness
between the ears and eyes. You couldn't
hire that mare 10 act mean. or hurt any
body. The eye should be full. and hszal
is . good color. like small, thin ear,
and want horse to throw its ears we'll
forward. Look out for the brute that
wants 10 listen 10 oil convrrsstion going
on behind bin. The horse that turns back
bis ears until they almost meet Ut the
points, take my word for it is sure TO do
something wrong. See that straight. Gle
CANT face. horse with dishing face is
cowardly, and cowardly brute is usually
vicious. Then | like q square muzzle.
with large nostrils, to let plenty Of air TO
the lungs. For the under side OF the head,
Q good horse should be we'll cut under the
jowl. with Jaw bones broad, and wide
apart under the throttle. The next thing
to consider is the build OF the animal.
Never buy q long legged, stilted horse.
Let him have short. strong coupling,
and q straight rump. and you've got gen
tleman' horse. The withers should be
high, aud the shoulders we'll set back and
broad, but don't get them too deep in the
obest. The foreleg should be short. Give
me pretty straight hindleg, with the
hook low down. short psstern joints, and
Q round mulish foot. There are oil kinds
Of horses, but the animal that has these
points is almost sure TO be slightly, grace
iul, good .natured and sci viceable.

A WAR TIME FRAGMENT.

AsI previously informed you, am Cap
tin of the Baldinsville company. I ri1
gradooally but majestically from drum
mers Secretary to my present position.
But found the ranks wasn't full by no
means, and commenced for to recroot.
Havin notist gineral desire on the part
of young men who are into the crisis to
wear eppylits, determined to have my
company composed exclusively of offs
sers, everybody to rank as Brigadeer-
Ginral. The follerin was among the
varis questions which l put to recroots:
Do you know masked battery from
hunk of gingerbread?
Do you know eppylit from piece
Of chalk?
If I trust you with real gun, how
many men of your own company do you
speck you can manage to kill durin the
war?
Hav you ever heard of Ginral Price
Of Missouri, and can you avoid simler
accidents i'll case Of a battle?
HAY you ever had the measles, and if
so, how many?
How air you now?
Show me your tongue, &C., &c. Sum
of the questions was sarcnsstical.
The company filed up rapid, and last
Sunday we went to the meetin house in
full uniform.
Pm afraid I tried to walk too strate,
for l cum very near fallin over back
ards; and in attemptin to recover my
self my sword got mixed up with my
legs, and fell in among a choice collec-
tion Of young ladies, who was standin
near the church door a-seein the sojer
boys come up. My cockt hat fell off,
and somehow my coat tales got twisted
round my neck. The young ladies put
their handkerchiefs to their mouths and
remarked, "Te he," while my ancient fe-
male single friend, Sary Peaseley, bust
out i'll loud larf. She exercised her
mouth so vilently that her new false
teeth fell out onto the ground.
Miss Peaseley," sed l, gittin up and
dustin myself, ''you must be more care.
full with them store teeth of your'n OF
you'll have to gum it agin!'
Methinks had her.
I'd bin to work hard all the week, and
l felt rather snoopy. I'm 'fraid did git
half asleep, for on hearin the minister
ask, "Why was man made to mourn?"
sed, 81 Civ it up" havin vague idee
