Permit me to call your attention and that of the 

 directors and members of your Agricultural Society 

 to the advantages resulting from the establishment of 

 the *' Haras National " Company. This Company pro- 

 pose to continue the importation and sale of French 

 horses ; to hire them out for the season to agricultural 

 societies, and to individuals who require them ; and to 

 inaugurate in this Country the " Haras," as it is under- 

 stcod in France, by the breeding of select races. 



The Company propose to import Percherons of 

 heavy build, and also light weights or roadsters ; large 

 Norman carriage horses, a few Arabs and some Per- 

 cheron brood mares. 



The old and excellent race known as the Canadian 

 horse w 11 not be forgotten Efforts will be made to 

 discover such samples of it as may be scattered 

 through the Country, in order, by careful breeding, to 

 restore it to its ancient footing. A stud-book will also 

 be opened for that highly prized race.
