Kentucky Horse-Jockey in Georgia. I
"A stranger iu these parts, 1 reckon!''
1 was fatigued by a week's travelling by I
stage ooach, over what they called an "alii- I
gator road," (tho fates deliver me from such 1
another,) and was not disposed to be very !
civil, and certainly not in a very agreeable
humor, so, without raising my eyes from '
the floor, merely nodded iny henu with, I
"y~, you reckoned right for tho first j
A chair was placed by my side, uud I i
was preparing to be very uncivil, when ho |
continued:
"Great country litis, sir, but no more to
be compared to old Kentuck than nu Alabama
River alligator to one of our racehorse*.
A light froiu your weed, stranger,"
said ho, out-stretohing Ids hand to me.
lli:$ peculiar tone and address amused
me, and excited my curiosity, go. for the
first time, I looked up, nnd, with a half
mile at his lar-fetchcd simile, otic red him
my cigar.
He was apparently about thirty years of
age?sun burnt, and dusty; his neck, which
was alutosl bare, was encircled by a broad
collar turned far back from tho throat; his
chin was beardless, but an incipient mustache
adorned his upper lip, and his eye
was like a fox's, so bright and cunning its
expression.
11 is dross was ovidontly intended to bo
fastbut tho tailor had overtopped the
tuaik by embellishing tho fancy coat with
a very wide-figured braid or binding, extending
round the edges. In bis hand he
held a riding-whip, with which he amused
himself by carelessly striking the tops, of
his boots.
Leaning toward me, he continued in a
rather low and confidential tone, for there
were many others in the room:
"Very good people in this section, hut
slow; not up to tho hoys that diivo round
Louisville. 1 knew you wasn't bred in these
parts as soou as I saw your yuit, when you
drovo up to tho door and walked into tho
bar-room; reckon you're from old Kentuck,
or Virginia perhaps?they raiso good stock
in Virginia too!"
"Yes," said I, smiling, 'Tin told they do,
but I'm not so fortunate as to come from
eithor Slate; my home is at the Noilli, in
Now York.,'
"Well, you've a long road to travel,"
said he. "Going to make any btop in this
place!"
"No. I take tho coach to niirht toColnm
bus."
"All light, wo go tho same road," "for
I've used up kfhis out-horse yUicc'?sold the
last pair of ponies 1 had to day."
"Had you many horses when you came
here!"
"No, I sold all but ono pair of little Canadians
beforo I arrived at this place. 1
started with forty head."
"Indeed!" said 1; "you must bo a dealer
in horses. May I ask what you got for
that I net pair of ponies?"
"Yes, that's been my profession for sottio
years, but I should givo up the business,
didn't I hate to see pooplo ride such horseflesh
as they do in soihc parts of Geoigia,
Alabama, and Florida, It goes against my
feelings. Now, that last span of little Canadians
I fairly gave away, as you may say,
for I only got Jive hundred dollars for them;
didn't sell a pair of tho others for less than
seven hundred."
"But," said I, Somewhat surprised, "that
must have paid you very handsomely."
"Gavo me interest on uiy money, you
know, which is all I carc to make. They
cost uie, laid down in Kcntuck, with all expenses
from Canada, about forty-live dollars
a piece; but as 1 said before, tho most I care
about it is to see people ride yootl horses;
'taint the little money I make that is any
object."
i said nothing, but was not altogether
convinced of his disinterested motives.
Tho coach drove up to tho door, and tho
night being line, I mounted the seat with
tho driver, and hud hardly seated myself
ere my jocky companion also mounted, and
took the vacant seat by my side, and again
commenced, while I, rosigning myself to
the force of circumstances, Intoned.
"Sold one old horse tliat is pretty well
known round this section, I reckon, hut no |
ono knows it yet though; sold him to the
same man 1 bought him of hist year. I'm
afraid Ito'll ho proftnit when ho finds out
he's got the same old nag again. Hut I let
him judge for himself, lie thinks he's some
at a trade, but it takes two to do that you
know, stranger. You sco ho don't care
much for fatt horses, but likes a stylish,
gay animal, that will show off well befoto
the women; so, when 1 was here last year,
1 sold him a splendid nag, one of the handsomest
and best horses 1 ever saw; but I
knew ho would soon take ihu flesh oflf of
him, and cool his spirit, by keeping bill)
dancing round the streets, and 1 would bo
pretty likely to get him back again cheap;
ho paid me seven hundred dollars in gold,
and gavo mo an old lame broken down
horse in exchange, with a long switch tail,
and a inane that looked as though it had
never been combed. Well, 1 took the nag
homo with me, bad him mhhod down every
day, well fed, and in u fow months made
him as fat and lively "as a two-year old."
Hilt Hlilld VOll. 'iWHS all natx niwl a ibaoI'o
driving would have made a frame of liim
again. I then cut oil' his main and tail,
trimmed his fet-locks, and filed his teeth to
make him look young, and brought him
among n?y horses this time. When I saw
Mr. G. 1 told him 1 thought ho might he
in want of a match for the horse 1 sold him
l.r->t year. As I expected, lie said he might
want another, for the horse he bought of
mo 'was used iij\ and thin ax a rail
"Well," said I, "I've got ihu very thing

F stylish, lino action, young and ambitious;
but you mustn't expect mo to 'jive him to
you for uuthiuy, as I did tiiat other hoise.
You can't have this one less than nine hundred
dollars, and when you see him, you'll
say he's cheap at a thousand. And oil' I
started to bring him, after giving him a few
cuts with the whip, just to wake him up
lieforo mounting. 1 soon was putting him ,
ill rough his paces before tho door, to the
the admiration of Mr. G. and a few idlers
that wore standing near. After some little
persuasion, I permitted him to mount hi us,
but not until 1 had given many cautions,
saying he was so lively, young, ami scarco- ;

lie laughingly added.) Well, lie liked liiin

There lived not many years ago, a wit

filching from his neighbors. At least 1

goat for tho whole community.
In the same ueighboihood there dwelt i
old Dutch farmer named Van Pelt, who
wealth enabled him to keep large herds

the latter; no sheep than his were ever fn
