BASTER. “HE IS RISEN.” BY MRs. A. D. MACLEOD.
—-
‘Pear not,” said the mighty angel Who rolled the stone away ;
‘Fear not, for your Lord is risen ; Cote, see where Jesus lay.”
Oi | jow for the blessed assurance ! No sealed or guarded grave
Could bind in its distal shroudings The Christ who came to save.
Adown through the circling ages As threads of living gold
The tidings of that hatlowed morn Have spanned earth’s dreary wold,
Have touched, convinced, subdued the soul
Till reason’s twilight ray, Till vice and dolesome ignorance Give place to perfect day.
That voice which awed the angry wave On deep, blue Galilee,
Yet calms and rules with mild contrel From nigh to further sea.
Yet wakes to life the desert land, Breaks superstition’s hold ;
And wanderers on the myriad paths Doth compass in one fold.
Bright seraphs strike your golden harps

5 scarcely six years old, isa horse of national reputation, for he enjoys the distinction of having heen selected from one of the cight great trotting lasnities te the States. BLACK DIAMOND is a coal black horse, stands 15 hands 14 inches high and weizhs about 1100 in ordinary condition. He has a head that is full of intelli cae ; hi neck, without being gross, denotes constitution ; his shoulders are deep and fine} eal i; his back is short and very muscular over the loins ; bis barrel is large and round ; hts r sank . are powerfal and smoothly turned, and he has clean, cordy legs, with abundant a nd sinew and an excellent set of feet. His way of going gives promise ot extreme speed wl < shall be fully developed, and his disposition is all that could be desired. All i all he is 4 noble young horse—large, strung aud finely proportioned—a splendid specimen of the highe rs type of the Knox family. He can now trot a mile in 2,32, and competent judges ss a ; with two weeks’ handling he could trot well dewn in the twenties. ; hy git tad GENERAL KNOX, in many respects, is without a peer as a positive sire of speed. The first sixteen years of his life were spent in comparative obscurity ; but not withstandin that, during this period be sired no less than ten trotters with recurds from 2 184} ‘to 2 30. Of these, two have records below 2.20; six of their dams were totaliy unknown as to bread. ing, and not one was from a standard-bred trotting mare. An instance of General Knox's power to perpetuate the trotting knack through several generations, entirely unassisted from outside strains, is shown in the case of his son Phil Sheridan, whose dain was unknown From a mare of unknown pedigree, Phil Sheridan sired Phil Sheridan, Jr., and he in turn sired Mattie B., record 2.273, and her dam is of »nknown lines. Fully seventy per cent. of General Knox 8 sons before eunmerated, that sired 2.30 performers, were from mares of un- known pedigree o1 trotting inheritance. Seventy-five per vent. of the dams of those formers were cold-blooded also. Such evidence of prepotency is very rare indeed hecing General Knox to be a horse among many. He was very fast and pure-gaited having shown a mile and repeat in 2.254, and 2.24 when sixteen years old. He was sold at that time for $10,000. In 1887, two of the get of General Knox entered the 9.30 list, while five trotters whose dams wete by General Knox obtained records of 2.30 and better. Twelve of his grandsons and gran idaughters also obtained records of 2.30sand better in 1887. Nineteen of his sons have representatives in the 2.30 table——a greater number of sons than stands to the credit of any sire living or dead, with but four or five exceptions, aud in this regard General Knox outranks such famous sires as Volunteer, Ethan Aliea, Ve mont, Black Hawk, Bel- mont, Alexander's Abdallah, Old Abdallah, Seely’ iean Star, Georg ‘ 1, C aliah, Seely’s Americ in Star, George M. Patchen, Old Henry Clay, or any other of his contemporaries. Myra Show, by Tom Lang, son of General Knox, foaled but four colts that lived, and thre: of them ave in tae 9.30 list : and she ranks - seven? vag greatest brood mares in the books. These are facts that are on record and e.
