ANNALS OF HORSEMANSHIP. y ^ 



By this it appears to be very lucky, that 

 cropping Horfes, was not then the fafliion, 

 or they would have had but little command 

 of them. The Wild Irifh now, I am told 

 have reverfed the mode, and taken up the 

 tail inflead of the poor ears, which are ne- 

 glefted. 



The Tartars of this day, Mr. Gambado, 

 have no faddles, but ride upon a Beef Steak, 

 or a llice of Horfe-flefh : which, by that 

 means, becomes fufficiently done for them 

 to eat, by the time they haVe finifh'd their 

 airing. What a delicious fuccedaneum for a 

 faddle ; it anfwers two purpofes at once. If 

 a faddle ever anfwers a fecond, it is, of gall- 

 ing you confoundedly. 



I have dropt a hint of a Revolution-^and 

 I expe<5l one. Let the Huns look to it ; 

 a fuccefsful experiment of riding in their 

 way, has lately been made in my country ; 

 but whether from motives of oeconomy, cu- 

 rio fity, or emulation, I am yet to learn.
