Beecher at a Horse Show.
At tlio national llor-e Show, at Spiingficld,
Mass., Re?. Henry Ward Beecher bo- j
ing present, was called on for a speech. He i
te>potuled. We givo here a substance of
his remarks, as raado up by tho reporter of *
the Boston Journal: ^
"He commenced by greeting his hearers r
upon their presence at such au occasion as t
this, it was proper that here on old l'mi
taa ground such A scene us this should ho
witnessed. It showed that a chnngo was
coming over the public sentiment \vbi;b
hud loo leng restrained n healthy public
want of recreation. The old Puritan who,
it had been supposed, had a face cast in
granite, and a heart but little softer, had
none of these things it is true, but it was
froiu no distaste of proper Amusement. lie
himself was a Puritan, and the son of a
Purilnn, but he loved pictures, ho loved
flowers and music, and was no enemy to
.amusement. The old Puritans had some
thing else to do besides inaugurate parks
.and plt-a>urc grounds?they had their fieodom
to inaugurate, their schools to establish,
their government to erect, and nil this
left but little lime for recreation. Tlmy had
taste and love for proper pleasuro, but little
time left from their sterner duties to enjoy
them. - ;(Applause.)
"We, however, were enjoying the fruits
of their labors and efforts, and have lime
fi>r these things. We have sprouted; not
full grown, it is true, but still we have
^routed. (Laughter.) Wo have time to
enjoy ourselves, and we sin if wo don't do
it- Enjoyment is one of the necessaries of
human life, and it is much better for us to
oivo the young a good wholesome pleasure
than to have them steal impurities. They
will llDVA ir mwl if mil ii?r? it ..ill k.

len. (Cheers and laughter.) Give our
young men and young women proper out
doors pleasure, and we shall have fewer diseased
bodies, fewer puny frames and palo
faces. We shall have more mothers and
more babiev (laughter,) nnjl the latter, that
are now lilies of the valley, and soon go un-der
the vailey, will llion Lo more robust;
they will then live and thrive, and grow up
to be men and women, such as men ami
women should be ami were meant lo be.
He wanted to see such men. Ho did not
belicvo that a saint could not l>o a good fat
robust fellow, nor did he believe that a
pinched visage was an evidenco of morals,
lie wanted men to he strong and healthy
on purpose to be moral and virtuous. The
devil, in his opinion, had ten times the
chance to hit a man who was always complaining
of his stomach and liver, than he
had to. hit one who was wh'oie and sound.
Therefore ho wanted whole men, strong
men, men who had no dyspepsia to complain
of, who had no neuralgia racking
their systems. lioth'were but only other
names fur devils, and to cast them out lie c
wanted out door pleasures ami uxerciso. I
[At litis moment the shrill whistle of a N
passing locomotive drowned the speaker's s
voice, and he waited. "Ono at a time,'' t
said he; "I give it up! I ant fas', enough i
to heat many things, hut a locomotive was t
never one of theini" (Groat laughter.)] c
The speaker then said he would puss p
fioin men ami women to the other animal* }
<>t cientiun. The grounds were not only <
for theserviee of moil, but also that the brute u
Viealioii might also show to what perfection (J
they could attain. Here would be brought *
the sheep of iho fold, and though himself a
" minister, and though a minister is a sin p
herd he would say that your sheep is an v
animal ho did not like, There seemed to d
-bo nothing to them?they wero consi-rva- I
<ive?. and had one* at that?they realized p
his idea of a blind stiickler for old usages g
and customs?"bunches of nothing, with I
wool on their backs?cotton wool s:>ino v
timer V (Laughter.) it
Then there was the pig; he, too, would
be tiollcd out to show his paces, and exhibit
his falm-as?and the speaker liked pig*. A 0
life in the west had made him intimately h
acquainted with the genua hog, ami. ex- l
cept that lie soinotiincs too inuch resembled M
man that he knew, lie was a good creature.
Their resemblance to man was not their
fault?they could not help it. The often of j ri
your fields, he continued, will also hero be j p

:ouiiuod:ilion of smokers; next comes a par- ,
or car, a bod room car, and then three car v
iages for the ladies and gentlemen of tlio e
tinperor and Kin press's suit, followed by
taggage cars. The dining room car is a t
illlo cluj d'eevre of comfort and ingenuity. 0
I'he interior is of carved oak wood, tlio win* c
lows and pan nets aro surmounted by ca- [
lutcheons, enlivened with gilding. The :
urnilure is also of enrved oak wood, cover- j.
:d witli yellow, red, and gold embossed (
oather. The torracc car is simply a floor, v
mclosed by a rich iron balustrade. Had cov- ^
ired by a roof supported by twisted col- ;j
imns, surmounted by eagles to form the b
apitals. Benches of carved oak wood are a
>laced all along the railing, covered with
mibossod leather, coi responding to that of u
ho dining room, with magnificent curtains |{
if Auhussou tapestry, which can at pleas v
tie be drawn entirely around the cars. The p
larlor car is marvellously licit. The ceil- 0
ng is green, white, and gold; the walls are s
ilso hung with Aubusson tapestry, ropre- j
enliiig large boqucts of dowers upon a t
vhito ground. A most elegant sofa placed t
it one end is intended for the Kmnerorand tj
impress. The furnituro is of gilt wood. v
I'ho carpet matches tbo hangings to perfec- 0
ion. 'I'he window frames, cornice, and p
ither ornaments, aro of gilt bronze. This j
ory long car is divided into three compart- v;
ileitis: at one end there is a little cabinet, t
villi a lounging chair for the Empress, the :
hair and walls aro covered witli green silk;
lext to it is tho bed-room car, which is di- t
dded into two rooms, each containing two s
teds. Tho Kmperor and Empress's room j .
s hung with blue silk damask, tho other j ;|
villi purple, three little toilettee cabinets, p
lung in Pompadour style, complete this v
nr. Tho first class carriages destined for t
ho suite aro elegant and comfortable, dif (
oring but little from the ordinary first-class v
ara. The exterior of these cars is magniti j t
oat, pain led ?n green and gold. The sa- i v
0011 car is remarkably rich; the door pun ;
tela are ornamented with llio Imperial coat
if arms, and beneath the windows there j i
no little medallions with Imperial bees tip- t
m a hianch of guilt bronze leaves; the e
vhulo car is bordered with rich gilt bronze y
trnatnents. The beautiful door knobs and t

rrouze, coniribnto much to the splendor of u
he lout ensemble. Trains bearing smite a
