Breeder and Sportsman: My colt by Athadon, dam Lustrine by Onward, is meeting- with much favor since his arrival and don"t look like the same colt after getting; the al.'alfa out of him.

I also have an offer to bring him to Oakland and mate him with three of as good mares as there are in Alameda county. I do not know of any driving horses for sale at this place. My friend, Mr. Brown, from San Francisco, was looking: for a good driver bnt could not find it here. The horses at the track are looking fine and moving up some. Hi Hogaboom has a fine young pacer by Gossiper out of a Patchen mare that is headed for the 2:15 list. S. V. Tryon has a large string and some very promising pacers are among them and they look in the pink of perfection. Chris. Jorgensen can be seen at any time behind some good colts that he is learning good manners and to drive in fine shape. Sam Hoy has a string that you know and they are ready now for hard work, and to see them move re- minds one of old times. Mr. Clark has Ouiboul here and a few others in fine shape. S. V. Mitchell has four good young horses; one by Zombro, one by Bay Bird and one by Kentucky Baron. OI course the usual lot of hot air is spilt every Sun- day, but out of it comes some good. There are a number of runners quartered here and the track is in better fix and puts on a better appearance than it has for some time. Sacramento has more good sound driving horses than any city in California, even on its mail wagons, which is an exception. Mrs. Callendine has a show horse sure in the colt by Nutwood Wilkes out of Lady Keating. I forgot to say in the above, that my colt can not trot fast enough to keep him warm under the saddle, but I live in hopes that he may cut loose some day and surprise ub. F.
