New Perth School Examination.

The half-yearly examination of the above school took place on the afternoon of Tues- day, the 19th inst. Seldom have the people of the district taken a deeper interest in the working of the school. Among those present were John Hamilton, Esq., Cyrus Shaw, M. P. P., Messrs. Alex. Smith,John McLean and many others, both ladies and gentlemen. When it was remembered that the school had sustained a loss of six of its best scholars at the last entrance ex- amination to the Prince of Wales College and Normal School, all were surprised that

class was so well filled by pupils from the next grade.

At the close of the examination the sum of $122 was unanimously voted for ordinary school purposes, and between $15 and $20 has already been subscribed for the im- provement of the school site, when it is ex- pected that in appearance as well in reality the New Perth school will compare favor- ably with any of the finest class schools in the Pruviuce. Following is the result of the examination of

Horse Whispering.

It is commonly believed that there are undoubted mysterious influences by which an immediate ascendancy is gained over the horse, independent of the process of teach- ing or the promptings of affection. There was formerly living in the County of Cork a family who laid claims to the possession of a secret by which the wildest or most vicious horse could be tamed. This secret is said to have been originally imparted by a Bohemian gypsy to the then head of the family, a century and a half ago, and to have been regularly transmitted, as a part- ing legacy at the time of his death, from the father to theeldest son. Possibly there may be residing in Cork County a scion of the family still practising, with more or less success, the art of ‘* horse whispering;” but it is an indisputable fact that, at the commencement of the present century, the fame of Con Sullivan, the then head of the family, for miraculous cures of vicious horses, had spread far and wide throughout Ireland. Among the many well-attested accounts of the achievements of Con Sulli- van, ‘the Whisperer,” the services which he rendered to Col. Westenra, who after- wards succeeded to the title of Rossmore, were the talk of the whole country. The Colonel had a splendid race-horse called Rainbow, and he was anxious to run him at the races at the Curragh of Kildare; but the horse was so wild and vicious that his owner found he must give up all thoughts of bring- ing him out and running him. He would bite everyone who went near him (like the present Lord Falmouth’s brute, Muley Edris, who *‘savaged” the late Fred Archer’s arm), and it was necessary to tie up his head when the groom who attended him was not with him. If a horse chanced to be near him he was sure to bite him or try to; and the legs of the jockey who at- tempted to mount him did not escape his fangs. Lord Doneraile said he knew a person who could cure him. The Colonel could not believe him, and a wager of £1,000 was laid on the matter. A messenger was dispatched for Con Sullivan, who was known throughout the country side as ** the Whis- erer,’ from the supposition that he whis- pered in the horse’s ear, by which means he quieted such as were unruly. When he was told the state of Col. Westenra’s horse he desired to go into the stable to see him. © You must wait till his head is tied up,” was said and repeated by those who were present. ‘* No occasion,” said Con; ‘* he won't bite me.” So in he went, after per- emptorily ordering no one to follow him until a given signal should imply that they had his permission. He then shut the door for the unenviable tete-«-tete. In a little more than an hour the signal was heard. Those who had been waiting in alarm for the result rushed in. They found the horse extended on his back, playing like a kitten with ‘‘the Whisperer,” who was quietly sitting by him. Both horse and operator appeared exhausted, particularly the latter, to whom it was necessary to administer brandy and other stimulants before he could be revived. §The horse was perfectly tame and gentle from that day. ae

In the spring of 1804 Mr. Whaley’s King Pippin was brought out to run at the Cur- ragh of Kildare. He had been described as a horse of the most savage and vicious dis- position.J He had a habitfof flying at and worrying any person who came near him. When he could turn his head round he would seize his rider’s leg with his teeth and drag him from his back. The diffieulty

of managing such a horse may be conceived and on this occasion it was impossible to | puta bridle on him. “The Whisperer

was now sent for. He remained shut up in the stable all night. In the morning King Pippin was seen following him like a dog— lying down at the word of eummand, and

the vacancy thus caused in the advanced

permitting any person, without resistance, to put his hand into his mouth, while he stood ‘* gentle as a lamb.” He was brought out in the course of the meeting, was run, and won the race. The fame of ‘‘the Whisperer” had now spread throughout the country, and his services were in ex- tensive demand. This extraordinary per- son has been noticed in many and various publications. Crofton Croker speaks of him in his ‘*‘ Fairy Legends” as ‘‘ an ignor- ant rustic of the lower class,” while he bears ample testimony to his extraordinary powers. ‘‘I once saw his skill,” he says, ‘**tried on a horse which could never be- fore be brought to stand for a smith to shoe him. The day after Sullivan's lec- ture I went, not without some incredulity, to the smith’s shop with many other curious spectators, who were eye-witnesses

of the complete success of his art. This had been a_ troop-horse; it was supposed that after regi-

mental discipline had failed, no other could be found availing. I vbserved that the animal seemed terrified when Sullivan either spoke to him or looked at him.” Were we to recount all the well-authenti- cated details of the marvelous powers of ‘*the Whisperer,” we should far exceed our limits. There are hundreds of cases on record of persons—some, we believe still living —who were witnesses of his marvel- ous powers, or who have benefited by them.

How he obtained this wonderful com- mand over the horse has never yet been ascertained. Some fancied that he poured some opiate into the ear of the animal, while others ascribed his success fo magic. Crofton Croker observes that ‘* he seemed to possess an intuitive power of inspiring awe; the result, perhaps, of natural intre- pidity, in which I belicve a great part of his art consisted, though the circumstances of the tete-a-tete shows that on particular occasions something must have been added to it.” The power of *‘the Whisperer” is glanced at in Borrow’s Bible in Spain, from which, too, it would appear that he had taken some lessons in his art. In Lavengro, the Scholar, he enlarges on the subject, and from what he says it would appear that the cure of the animal is effected by a word. The smith of whom he speaks, he tells us, ** uttered a word which I had never heard before, in a sharp and pungent tone. The effect upon myself was something extraor- dinary; a strange thrill ran through me, but with regard to the cob it was terrible. The animal forthwith became like one mad, and roared and kicked with the utmost desperation. He afterwards uttered an- other word in a voice singularly modified, but sweet and almost plaintive. The effect of it was instantaneous as that of the other, but was different; the animal lost all its fury, and became at once calm and gentle,” —St. James’ Gazette.
