Raner, Last mi The most oddurate and "willful horse (except one) ever operated upon in America.—An immense throng poured into the “National Theater last night, to witness, as they sup- “posed, Mr. Rarey’s exhibition. As the spa- clous room filled up, the impatience of the audi- ence manifested itself in repeated calls for the commencement of the performances; and when the hall could well hold no more, Mr. Rarey ap- peared u} the stage. and ina few words ex- Plained the fundamental principles of his system, ‘with bis interesting narrative of his first meeting and subsequent le and triumph with Cruiser, and the sad fate of the Aratian horses ited to France, whose limited knowledge of rench brought down upon themselves the wrath of their new grooms and finally an Inious death, Cruiser was led upon the . Itdid not seem possible that the sleek and docile animal before us was the terrible Cruiser once penned up brick cell, and guarded like a wild beast— muzzied, yet unapproachable. After following Mr. Rarey arow stage, lying down at the 1 from his master, and politely extending bis hoof ina parting salutation, he was led out, and a new subject in juced to the audience.

After caressing the horse a few moments, and convincing it of its belpless. ness, the umbrella wes then brovght forward, and after the first nervousness had subsided the horse allowed It to be hoisted, rubbed against and ssed over it without manifesting any alarm. A ees was also presented to Its attention, and finally placed upon its back and violently beaten, the horse meantime evidently enjoying the fun. ‘with an occasional sly wink at the Teportorial balanx .

Then came the ere of the evening, with a horse noted for his kicking propensities, bis ab- horrence of horseshoes, and a particular regard for the comfort of his feet. Before the strap was applied, at the request of Mr. Rarey, Mr. Green ve a short description of the horse's failings om Green said he had seen a great many bad horses, but this was the worst he had ever known. He had conquered every horseshoer in Washing- ton, and the only way whereby he could at all was to suspend him by ropes tn the air. bind his feet fast to posts driven into the ground. ‘The horse having been led in, Mr. Rarey tried to take up the hors+’s feet, but every attempt met with a fierce resistance. ‘he strap was soon applied, and then commenced astrugglein which it seemed as if the horse wee perfectly frantic, with impotent rage, with flashing eye. dilated nostrils, and muscles standing out in bold relief, snorting, foaming, and plunging, the horse dash around upon the stage, upon his knees and hind feet, snapping up mouthfuls of straw and tan bark with the fnry of a wild besst. After plung- ing around in this manner for about ten minutes. the horse settled down into the straw, cov with lather and perspiration. But he was not subdued yet. At every attempt to touch bis feet he would commence kicking fu- rtously, and rising upon bis hind feet would again rear and plunge around the stage, ing ‘the straw pad | tan bark in every direction by the shbovelful, with an occasional luage at the report- ers, who were by no means tardy in getting out of danger. All this time Mr. Rarey was perfectly cool (iguratively speaking) and collected, and maneged his po asaskipper would the rigging fan voruly craftin a squall. Again and again did the hors- fall. get up, rear and plunge about, ‘whenever an attempt was made to handle his feet, ‘and finally in an unasuatly desperate — the broke, and the horse was piurtially tree. her was soon supplied, and the strife waxed er than ever, until exbausted, and nearly en- tirely subdued, the horse stretched himself out in the straw, while Mr. Rarey removed the men Knocked his hoofs together, beat upon them with band, and finally laid down in the straw with oe hind feet of the horse resting against bis face. ‘hile he was in this position the spectators held their breath, expecting at “7 uiver of the muscles to see an iron shod hoof driven ag: t Mr. Rarey’s forehead. Mr. Rarey did not bave time to subdue the horse sufficiently to allow him to strike his hoofs with his hammer, but it was tly evident that the worst of the battle was and that one more lesson would completely ‘turn the horse from his evil way Mr. Kare stated that with but one exception, this horse wa: the most obdurate case he ever met with in Ame- rica, and expressed himself as being perfectly confident of ultimate snecess.

The bat- talion was accompanied by the full band led by Prof. Scala, and the drum corps conducted by Drum-major Roche. The day was very warm, and the dust was blinding to the eyes, yet the battalion made a fine appearance, marching well, and paying particular attention to dress each pla. toon by its guides, so that at no time on the march were they outof line. Marching in at the west gate, the battalion halted in the carriage way until President Buchanan appeared and took po- sition on the pavement approaching the portico from the west. The battalion was again formed into column of platoons, guides right, and marched in review before the President, (who stood uncovered till the column passed,) the band performing “Hail to the Chief” with magnificent eifect.
