London Fio'd It is claimed for the enormous island continent which lies at the Antipodes that ere long it will be the greatest horse.producing center in th world. The Australian colonies alresdy possess a larger number of horses in proportion to human beings than any other country in existence; | and #o favorable is the climate and pasturage for ralsing live stock of all kinds that it will not surprise us if, | following the example of the United States, Australia should send ws some great race-horses to run for our best English stakes, and perhaps to win the Derby, before many years have passed. ot long since a couple of Australian 2-year-olds—each being of great promiso—arrived at Alec Taylor's stables, near Marlbor ough, after having passed three months at sea between Adelaide, the sapital of South Australia, and the Thames. They were delivered in Wiltshirewith out a scratch upon their skins, with logs unpuffed and in blooming eondi tion; nor is it unworthy of notice that these colts, brad by Sir Themas Elder at his stud farm near Adelaide—which Sir Hercules Robinson pronounced to be the finest establishment of the kind that ho had ever seon —have traversed | some five-and-twenty thousand miles of ocean before they are stripped for the first time in public. The dams were exported in foal from this coun- try te Adelaide, and the produce has lately returned from Adelaide to this oountry. Bpeaking summarily, there areabout 1,000,000 tame horses in the Aus- tralian colonies, to which must be ded a ragged lot of about 120,000 wild horses, which hang upon the skirts of civilization, and are as great a nuisance to the squatters as rabbits to the agricultural community. The wild horses, or ‘‘brumbles,” as they are locally called, owe their existence to a few tame animals, which have frem time to time escaped from man's control and taken shelter in the bush, where they have multiplied with un- conceivable rapidity. In his *‘Physi- cal History of the Human Race,” Dr. Prichard cells that the most refined, cultivated and polished of men—a Sir Charles Grandison, for instance— would loae his civilization and revert to a barbaric type if confined for a year upon an island solely inhab- ited by eavages. Somecthing of the same kind takes place where a thor- oughbred entire KOI'IO escapes into the Australian brush. He cannot lose his fine symmetry, his high courage and eye of fire, or his grand action, but his coat soon becomes as coarse and rough as that of the wild colts and mares by which he is surrounded, and hie progeny conform to the straight- shouldered, cat-hammed and spindle- shanked type of their villainous dams, But such is the inborn partiality of the noble animal for liberty that there is no instance known in which a run. away from civilization has returned voluntarily to slavery, although it might be imsgined that man’s care is more than sufficient compensation to & horse tor the reasonable amount of work exacted from him, Nor, to all appearances, is wild life in the bush 80 attractive as to justify the prefer- ence shown for it by horses which have once served man as domestic animals. The pasturage is often very scarce, and in years of drouth the rivers, brooks and water- holes dry up, so that the ‘‘brambles” have to travel hundreds of miles to get food and drink, Man’s hand is against them wherever they go, and they end by becoming as unapproach- able as the mountain sheep of North America orthe wild ass of Africa. In one respect they do not altogether lose their domestic instincts, for it is their habit to hover coutinually on the out- skirts of civilization, partly from a |long asleep when Charley aroused desire to tempt trme animals to follow their runaway example and partly be- cause they knew that where man dwells forage will not be wanting. Ia book lately published, called “‘Bush Life in Queensland,” Mr. A. C. Grant, its author, lets much light fall upon the habits and resorts of the “‘mobs” of wild horses which frequent the most northerly of our Australian colonies, The hero of the book, John West, is on a visit at a station called Cambaranga at a time when ‘‘the slack season is developed to muster- ing all the tame horses on the rum, branding the foals, breakingin the colts and fillies, and making occasion- al attempts to get in the wild mobs on the outskirts of the station.” Mr. Grant explains that in this particular herd of wild horses were included many fine animals which had escaped ‘| from servitude, for which, as being branded, a standing reward existed. These runaways had adopted all the characteristics of their wild companions, and were quite as wary and watchful and equal- ly hard to turn in the direction of the yards—or, as the Americens would aay, the ‘‘corrals’’--when once they had turned their heads toward their mountain fastnesses, The herd was ruled by a stallion of unusual size and beauty and of a peculiar golden yellow color, with long black mane and tail. He was a thoroughbred horse, son ot a sire imported at great expense from Englaud, out of an imperted mare in the Eoglish “Stud Book;” and when eighteen months old he had been carelessly allowed to wander from Biudnroginy. the station of the United Australian Pastorial company. For several years his whereabouts had re- mained undiscovered, until a solitary stockman, tracking some cattle into an unfrequented spot, came across the footprints of a herd of horses. Following up tho fresh tracks for about a mile the stockman come sud- denly upon a mob of some thirty wild horses feeding in a pleasant valley, A loud snort from one of the mares announced that she had discov- ered the unwelcome presence of the human intruder, and the yellow stal- lion, galloping round his little harem and arching his neck proudly, ad- vanced with a defiantair, One by one the rest of the mob trotted toward him, shakivg their heads, plunging and kicking playfully at each other, Most of the f(m{u and young horses were of the same rich golden color as their high-born sire, but had all the family characteristics of their dams, A movement on the mans part sent them all flying through the forest glades, and they were very soon lost to sight. Many attempts had been made to run them in, but the *“‘yellow mob,” as they were oalled, defied pursuit. The stockmen who under- fearless riders, came home baffled time after time, with horses knooked, or, perhaps, rained for life. At length John West, accompanied by his friend ‘‘Charley,” by the ehtef stockman of the Cambaranga station, and by a native, set out upon picked horses to try their luck with the yel- low mob. }l"hsir road iny along a nar- row track, which led up to the head waters of the criek where tho wild herd was usually found. The pur. suers chose & convenient spot for their camp, and ving hobbled their s after one of those pleasant evenings around a camp fire, which are the most agreea- ble recollections of war and of life n the wilderness. They had not been them with the warning that the wild mob was enticing their hobbled horsos to join company with them. Snatch- ing up their bridles, they soon suc- ceedod in oapturing their own horses, and in the oclear starlit night, ""f saw plainly a dark moving mass, which circled around them, while the tramp of the squadron sounded like distant thunder. The constellation called the Southern Cross sinking to rest below the horizon, betokened that night was far spent, and morning soon broke with that exhila- rating freshness which is its charac- at the antipodes. The laughing jackals welcomed the coming day with their unearthly hymn of praise; the white cockatoos flew screeching across the sky; the clear, rich note of the organ-magpie resounded through the woods; and far down the creek the swamp-pheasant’s rapid, cooing ory told them that dawn had como. After a hasty breakfast they set off upon the track of their midnight vi tors, hushed to silence by a conecious- ness that any moment might bring them in sight of their quarry. Bud- denly Charley reins in his steed and listens intenly as a dietant whinny strikes upon his ears. Moving cau tiously forward, they catch a glimpse of a mob horses-some black, some gray, but most of them of a rich goldeu hue. The most prominent ob- Jject is, howeyer, a noble, upstanding chestnut horse, with mane and tail that swept the ground. In the pursuit that followed, John West, being a new ‘‘chum,” is soon left hopelessly in the lurch. To ride at full speed through Ahstralian tim- ber on the edge of the creek, among broken gullies and broken rocks, re- quires no slight amount of nerve nnd of experience. Presently John West comes across the stockman lying upon the ground, having been swept from his horse by an overhanging bough. Charley aud his hawk-eyed native are more fortunate than their companions, Singling out “‘Yellowman” himself, as they call the powerful thoroughbred stallion, they allow him no rest until gradually he is edged nearer to the yard in which they hope to capture him. With reeking flanks and sob- bing ribs the noble beast sustains the same desperate pace over gullies, through creeks and scrub, until a shout from his pursuers announces that he has entered the palings which inclose the yard Ha is followed into captivity by several of' his harem, and the news flies far and wide that Yellowman is at last cap- tured. As he stauds by himself in one of the smaller yards the dry, white perspiration dims his golden ides; his belly is tucked up; huge i dngqla({ with wet and dirt, sweeps the ground; his long mane hangs in tangled masses upon his bull- like crest. The wild eyes, gleaming with unquenched fire, bespeaks his indomitable spirit. The stockman from the Bindarobina station rides over to claim the runaway and to pay the reward offered to his capturer. He sets out homeward, leading the yellow stallion, upon whose head he has fast- ened a pair of blinkers to prevent his cbserving what is going on around him and to cow his temper. ‘‘Mind that he does not slip you,” exclaims John West, as the man and his prisoner set off upon the long r.de home. The warning was needed, for on the road the pair fell in with a mob of bush horses, and Yellowman sets to work kicking and rearing, until at last he drags the halter out of his captor’s hand, after pulling the man clean off his saddle. To this hour Yellowman has never been recaptured, although the surcingle and crupper buckled upon his body remained there long enough to produce an abrasion of the skin, upon which a belt or girdle of white hairs has grown. Inthe most inaccessible brush between the Cam- baranga and Bindarodina runs he is occasionally seen surrounded by a harem of mares as wild and untamea- ble as himself. The moral of the story is that the wild horses of Aus- tralia can only be got rid of by the bullet, and such is their number that all the colonies will soon have to fol- low the example of New South Wales, which has set a prico upon the head of every ‘‘brumble” slain by his pur- suers, A Bavt) Minister's Experience.
