Cost OF Horse Flesh:
1t Is difficult to estimate the enormous
expenses incurred by the English gov
ernment for the transportation to South
Africa OF necessary war material. and
especially 30 With respect to the horses
needed.
A Budapest newspaper. styled Sport
and Hunting Journal, has calculated
the cost to the English for sending to
the Cape s600 horses that the British
Military Commission has just bought
in Hungary.
The average price of these horses was
$160. They will be embarked at Fiume
in the horse-steamer. Mont-Liban. es-
pecially arranged for the purpose. and
shipped direct to Durham. The voyage
will take from 80 to 40 days.
The cost price alone Of the 5000 horses
amounts 20 $4SO,000. Add to this the
expense OF transportation. custody and
food as far as Fiume. amounting to
about 10000. The expenses during the
sea voyage as far as Durham, including
the maintenance Of the animals. pas
turage purchased at calling stations,
ETC., aggregate 1856. 400. Adding all these
charges, you have a total that indicates
that every horse arriving in Durham
has cost England nearly $4,000.
