Some weeks ago. our read ers will remember, we announced the fact that W. C.

Since then Mr. Myer Ms returned to his home In Ashland, bring ing this horse, which he calls the '-Pride of Perche," and other pnrchases of blooded stock which he made while In the East. A note received from Mr. Myer Informs n that lie iiiteMls making the stasoti with White Prince and Pride of Perche In this city and Salem, the comli-g season, which will afford our stockmen a chance to secure fine stock, an opportunity which they will no doubt avail tliemselves of freely.

The IanpstrtaYUM T Ftae Sleek. Mr. W. C. Myer. of Ashland, called at our office the past week From him we learn that he arrived at home on the 1st Inst. all safe with his stock, which consists of two Imported Percheron stallions 'Fleurv." a dark iron erav. 8 years old. and '"Pride of Perche." a 4 year old dapple rey; also one mil Dlooti mare called "White Rose" and one filly 15-iaths one Tear old last September. Mr. Myer Informs hs that the above animals are the very best he could select while in the East. The stallions were selected in France by Mr. C Fulllngton In person. This gentleman was on a visit to France 25 years ago and at that time was so favorably impressed with this stock of horses that he selected a 3 vear old and brought htm to Ohio. This colt was called "Lento Napoleon. and there was a great deal of sport made of hi.p by the horsemen of the country. Thl horse afterwards went to Illinois and was the sire of over 400 successful stallions and demonstrated to the stock men of the West tlie value of this stock. Mr. F. has made several visits to France since, and familiar with breeding and handling of this stock In Ohio. "Flenry" and "Pride of Perche are probably as promising young horses as any he lias ever selected. Mr. Myer now has at his ranch 3 imported stallions and 7 mares that are full b'ood of high grade, one three-fourths mare being the lowest grade he has. The following is an extract from the Live Stock Journal, which speaks for ttseir : Mr. E. A. Buck, who ha recently beennv one of tlie proprietors and editor-in-chief of the Spirit nf the Time, has spent mostot his time for a year past In Europe. He has always been an admirer nf trotting and running horses, and is an enthusiastic lover of the sports of the tnrf. While In Europe he critically examined the various breeds of horses in tlie several countries visited by him. and he was so favorably impressed with the drat, horses of France that he purchased ", twelve ' Percheron stallions, which reached New York in fine condition about tour weeks ago. Mr. Buck is enthu siastic In his praises of this breed and ssys that the finest general purpose, and the best and most stylish carriage horses he has ever seen are the produce of tlie second cross from tlie Norman or Percheron stock in France, and be thinks they cannot fail to produce the same results iu this coun try.' We are especially gratified at this expression of opinion from one so well qualified to be a critical as well as an Im partial judge upon such- matters, fur It accords with our own often expressed con victions upon this subject, although our views have been frequently cnnibarted in these columns by gentlemen whose opinions are entitled to great weight. - r As a question ot breeding, the effect of the cross upon our American norses is an interesting one. and it to. in a fair way to be thoroughly tested. So tar If has certain ly given very general satisfactioiu for no where are they more popular than where they liaAe been most extensively tried., In proof of this expectation, there Is "Lulu," designated by sportingmen as the 'Queen of the TurC having made the three best mile beats en record. Her grand sire was au Imported French horse. There was a one-half brother of "Lulu" by tlie same horse, who was of great promise a few years ago, but met with some accident and did not come before tlie public. Herewith is a letter from Mr. P. Wat kins, of Wasco county. In which he gives the reception of 4 head of one-half blood Colt he bought in this and Douglas county last Fall, and making Inquiry about some others he then saw : r - ' r " Fifteen Mile Creek.
