ORIENTAL RARiTiES.

An. Ancient Copy of PARIS CT zacfarta and
MaIacEi on PHpyrus Manuscript
Among the iesdisplayedt to the re-
cent cougressof Orientalists in London,
says the New York Evening Post, was
p papyrus manuscript discovered a few
months ago in Egypt, which is supposed
Oy some aUthorities to be the oldest ex-
tant copy of parts Of the Old Testament
books of Zacharia and Malachi The
pages Of papyTus when intact were
about ten inches high and seven inches
wide. each containing twenty-eight
lines Of writing, both sides of the sheet
being used. The complete line contains
from fourteen to seventeen letters. The
sheets are bound together in the form
of book In primitive though careful
manner with cords and strips of old
parchment.
The Greek of this document Is written
without intervals between the words,
a custom observed both in Odd Greek
and old Hebrew manuscripts The
paYyrus Is In fair preservation and is
believed TO date from the third
or fourth century. Experts are in
cltned 70 the conclusion that the papy-
Eus was copied from some excellent
rrfgipal of the Septuagint Bible, Nhich
was first translated about the year $50

THOROUGHBRED "sr. BLAIsE.

bred it is generally low and of the
''daisy-cutting" order, whether it be at
the trottirg gait or at the gallop. Here
in America we use the thoroughbred
exclusively for racing, but IN England
cavalry officers take especial delight in
pressing the Gne animal into their
active service.
The story of the American trotttng
horse is one of intense interest to the
public, for he is peculiarly an American
institution. BY way of preliminary l
may sayt hat he is descendant origi-
nally from a cross of the old English
Norfolk trotter family with the thor
oughbred. Imported Messenger is the
founder OF the family ii America and
he was an animal born with the trOt-
ting instinct developed to an almost alb
normal degree And almost every trot-
ting horse in America to-day traces back
directly to him. The family was then
improved by the importation of Bell
founder, who was in reality a Norfolk
trotter, with q record, so tradition has
it, of seventeen miles an hour. But the
most potent and the most fashionable
branch of the trotting horse family de-
veloped from the Charles Kent mare,
sired by Bellfounder and out OF mare
OF Messenger descent. bred to Abdallah,
a great-grandson Of imported Messen-
ger The result OF this union was
Rysdyk's Hamiltonian, far and away
the greatest progenitor of trotting stars
in this country. In fact, Nancy Hanks,
STEAMBOAT, Kremlin, Sunol, Maud S,
Arion P, Palo Alto and others as IA
NOUS, trace to that animal.
In conformation, the trotter is one OF
more substance, of more bone and per-
haps less finish than marks the great
thoroughbred. In fact, he partakes
somewhat Of the form Of what is now
known as the hackney, and IN reality
the trotter must be regarded as an in
ter1nediate step between the thorough
bred and the hackney. The highest
type OF the trotter has knee action be
tween the stiff-kneed action of the
thoroughbred trotter, when on trot-
ting gait, and the excessive mee action

lie Looked Shabby, Bat Nothing Was
Too Good for His Little Gall
He was a very shabby person indeed.
His clothes were of that much-worn
character that precludes any attempt at
description. He had cotton in his ears
and he wore a most disreputabie hat,
vet there he was IL one of orr large dry
goods stores, as much out of place as a
stolIer in drawing-roon.
No one pald any attention to him,
everyone having come to the conclu-
sion evidently that he was workman
or some porter looking for Job; any
thing. in fact, but purchaser.
At last, after he had fdgeted about for
some time. he started off toward the
cloak department and presently came
back in company with an obsequious
hoorwall1er, who snapped his fingers
and called out:
"Show this gentleman your finest
sealslzin wraps"
Everyone looked In astonishment at
the seedy figure and one young woman
had the grace to remark:

up his head would show It's gratiaca-
ton. and SO we were always in srnpa-
thy. So say, give me the trotter above
al breeds and classes.
The hackney is essentially an Eng
lsh family. Il is an established breed
and really a perpetuation of the old
English Norfolk srotter. He has not
been fined up" by the introduction OF
thoroughbred blood and is at no point
rs fine as trotting horse In con-
formation he is what is termed pony
built, is shorter in body, heavier toned,
heavier neclced, but with fiue, express
sive head and ears In action. as said
before, the trotter resembles the hack
ney more than the thoroughbred, the
hackney having excessive knee and hook
action and ''trappy' way of hand
ling his legs. In fact, the hackney
more closely resembles the original
progenitor OF all these breeds, the Arab.
than either the trotter or the runner.
We have really no type of the coach
horse, but look abroad for our best
breeding animals in this class. The
coach horse is made on larger scale
than the other breeds mentioned. lie
is the result of crossing the heavy Nor
man and Belgian horses with the Ara
bian and thoroughbred. The typical
animal should be upward Of sixteen
hands, solid color, good neck, eye, ear,
good bone. with plenty of substance
and vet with a certain degree of finish.
His action is much that OF the trotting
horse, and the tendency is now to breed
higher gait. much resembling that of
the hacl1neys. The English coach
horse proper is best represented by q
