Crickmore, the author, announces that Part 1. of Krik’s Guide, containing tho rices run luring 1ssU in the United States, and also of the ruuning of American-bred horses in England and elsewhore, will be ready for delivery ou Feb. 1. Part iL, containing the races tocome, will bo issued as s00n as ‘the stakes close. The work should be encouraged by turfmen, as it is not a paying book, and should be supported, as it {s a, duty turfmen owe to themselves. The subscrip- tion price to both parts is 35, and should be ad- dressed to H. G. Crickmore, lorld office, New York City. Mr. S. J. Morgan has wintering at the Driving Park track the following trotting stock: Pied- . Happy Dream, Katio Clay, the dam of Happs ‘Thought and Happy Dream; a 4-year-old filly by Pi jont out of amare by Pilot Chief; two fillies by Happy Thought, + years old; a 3-year-old colt by the sume stallion; @ 2year-old tilly by Star Duroc out of Katie Clay, and a yearling colt by Picdmont out of the same mare. This colt unites the blood of Ham- bletonizn, Membrino Chief, Clay, Pilot, Gray Engle, and Glencge, and bids fair to sustain the fume of his distinguished ancestors. The largest collection of fast trotters. and pacers ever under one roof are’ now being win- tered in the elegunt burn of the Downer & Bemis Brewing Company on South Park avenue. The jot includes Hopeful, Bonesetter, Silverton, Fred Douslass, Sorrel Dan, andLitue Brown Juz, each annimai’ being provided with a spacious box stall: Silverton and Bonesetter are jogged daily together and drive like oue horse, so per~ fect are their dispositions and action. They are undoubtedly the fastest pufr ever hooked to- gethor, and could doubtless beat the 2:23 of Small Hopes and Lundy Mac, if driven as a team and fitted for the trial. All the horses mentioned are under the care and supervision of * Knap- sack" McCarty, who bas been Dan Mace’s right- hand man for several years. Charlie Ford, whose record of 2:163; stamps him as one of the fastest trotters in the land, is be- ing wintered at Kearney’s stable, on State street, us is ulso the bay mare Alta, by Almont, record 2:25. Both horses are owned by Jerry Monroe, and during the winter are looked atter by Joe Reese, who bus had charge of Ford dur- ing. the past two seasons. It is believed that Ford won more money last season thin any horse on the turf, St. Julicnalone excepted. Two years ago Jimmy Dustin guve the xray ufcecord of 2:28 over the half-mile track at Cincinnati, and drove bin a mile in the same time at Cincinnati, Last July Splan won a second heat over the Chicazo track with him in 2:16%. Next season Ford will start out with Gus Glidden for a driver, but, as ne is thirty pounds over weicht, ft may be necessary to cive the horse the benctit of a Nehter driver when tho free-for-all race in tho Central Circuit is reached, where such flyers as Hattie Woodward, Darby, Hannis, and Hopeful are to be met, TEA CULTIVATION. The New Farm in South Carolina— What Is Sald of the Enterprise. f Washington scepubtican, Commissioner Le Duc and the Hon. J. H. Mc- Gowan, member. of the House Committee on Agriculture, have just returned from an ex- tended tour in the Southedstern States, under- taken in the interest of the Departmentof Ag- riculture. The main object of the Commission- er’s trip was to look after the location und lease of a tract of land suitable for the purpose of _propagating the Chinese.tea plant, -and the cul- tivation of the samo under climatic and other conditions of soil and rainfall such as expe- rience and observation have taught those who have made the constitunon and habits of the plant a study are essential to its profitable cul- tivation in tbis country. ‘The Commissioner's excursion embraced a visit to the tea farm now being cultivated un- der the auspices of his department in Georgia and an incursion into the orange-rrowing re- gions of Florida. A great many tracts of land were examined, and much information touching soil, climate, rainfall, and sacilities for irriga- tion collected before the éelection of tna site for the new tea plantation, was tinally mude. ‘The site chosen embraces a tract of 20) acres lying on the Ashley River, near Summerville, 5, ¢.,and not far distant from Charleston, and is deemed by the Commissioner one of the most suitable for the purpose to be found in the country. 5 ‘The fand is a part of the old Gov. Blake pluce, so culled from having been at onetime the home of the Colonia! Governor of that name. It is now the property of a public spirited citizen named Livingstone, x descendant of one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, and, to use the lanzuage of Commissioner Le Duc, “as noble and cultivated a specimen of intelil- gent manhood as ft bus been his good fortune to meet.” Mr, Livingstone asks the Government nothing for the use of the land for twenty years, and would have executed n lease for.n longer period had the Commissioner not considered that a suf- ficient iength of time to demunstrate the prac- ucability and profitableness of the cultivation of tea in the United States, ana to propagate enough of the plants to stock the country. It is the Commissioner'sopinion that irrigation will not be required, but the plantation is ‘so lo- cated that water can be artificially applied, ifex- perience shall demonstrate the necessity there- tor or the profitableness thereof. 4 Shade, it seems, is oneof the essential elements of tho buccessful production of full-flayored, marketable ten; and this, itis thought, &an be provided by the cultivation of the Scuppernone grape vine, a native growth of much vigor and lusuriance, yielding a fruit of considerable econotnical value. Commissioner Le Duo has abated not one jot ‘or tittle of his confidence in the’ eventual suc- cessful cultivation of tea in the United States, ana coniidently predicts that witbin tho lifetime of the present generation tex wil become one of the most extensive and profitable crops grown in this country.
