Judging Morses at Fairs. (From Wetlaces Monthiy.) Judging at random by ‘the rule ol thumb” has had its day, and while it may do for a time in backwoods places, progres sive, thinking horsemen will be satisfied with awards for which some reason can be given. To merely leok at horses, look

~i

custom which nobody seriously regards. as better than a farce. The prize is awarded, and for the life of them the judges cannot give intelligent, specific reasons for what they do. It is strange that horse breeders have so long subjected themselves to a manner oi judgment which advanced breed- ers Of cattle, or dogs, or hogs would not tolerate fora moment. And if cows, hogs, or hogs, dogs,” and poultry are judged scientiiically, is it not a positive reproach to breeders of horses to go inthe old ruts. 1gThe scale as here presented, may not be perfect, but it is thé result of much patient thoutrht and pra¢tical experience. Practical application showed where the original draft. was defective, and showed where amend- ment was required. Though we think that it is now well adjusted, further experience may indicate further desirable changes, and as soon as indicated they will be adopted. We invite criticism of the seale of points, and we will always be pleased to have reasonable suggestions, because we want it right. We think that any intelhgent horse- man who will carefully and thoughtfully read and digest this scale will come to the conclusion that it is pretty nearly right now, .-

Of course it will be applied at many fairs this autumn, and we are anxious to assist progressive associations that desire to award their prizes onan intetlligent system. To ‘that end we will have printed, and will furnish gratis, blank “score cards” for: the use of judges. We cannot too forcibly en- deavor to impress upon managers of fairs the necessity of seeuring competent judges. To apply the system in a fully satisfactory manuer requires indeed the services of ex- perts, who know individual excellence, and who know the history and performances of the trotting horse. Any fairly good practi- cal horseman can apply the first part, covering points of structure and conforma- tion, satisfactorily arid well, but the second part, covering matters of history, of per- formance, of inheritance —in short of breed- ing —can only be intelligently and’ ‘satisfac- turily, applied by thoroughly _*‘posted ”’

James James, a negro. and citizen of the United States, who resides at § Mexico, is probably the earth. He was born near Dorchester, Ss. ¥,, in 1752, and while an infant was removed to Medway River, Ga., in the same year that Franklin brought down electricity from the thunder clouds. In 1772 4here was quite an immigration into South Carolina, and his master, James James, (from whom he takes his name), moved near Charleston, 8. C., in com any with a number of his neighbors. On June 4, 1776. when twenty-four years of age, a large British fleet, under Sir Peter Parker, arrived off Charleston. The citizens had erected a palmetto wood fort on Sullivan’s Island, with twenty-six guns, manned by

™ inta 08a,

oldest man on

500. men under Colonel Moultrie, and on June 28 the British made an attack by land and water, and were com] elled to

withdraw aftera ten hours’ conflict. It was during this fight that Sergeant Jasper distinguished himself by replacing the flag, which had been shot away upon the bas- tion, on anew staff. His master, James James manned one of the guns in this fight, and Jim, the subject of this sketch, and four other slaves were employed around the fort as general laborors. Jim followed his master throughout the war, as was with General Moultrie, at Port Royal, 8. C. February 3, 1779, when Moultrie defeated the ¢ mbined British forces of Provost and Campbell. Hs master was surrendered by Lincoln at Charleston, S. C., on February 12, i780, tothe British forces, and this ends Jim’s military career.

He remembers of the rejoicing in througbout the country in Washington s election to the Presidency, he then being forty years of age. Jn this year his first master died, aged about sixty years. Jim then beeame the property oi ‘Marse Henry (Henry James), owning large estates and about thirty near C Chi arléston. On account of having raised ‘ Marsé Henry,” Jim was a special favor- ite with his master and was allowed to do as he chose. His second master, Heury, lied mm 1815, about fifty-five years of and Jim, now sixty- -three years of age, be- came the property of James James, Henry's second son. In 1833 the railroad from Charleston to Savannah was completed, then the longest railread in the world, and Jim, with his master, tood trip over the road, and was shown special favors on ac- count of his age, now eighty-one. James James was ten years of age at his father’s
