Third Avenue Stables. 
Ot the large stable# in the world, that of the London 
Omnibus Line Is probably the most extensive. The 
next in also Is In this city, and belongs to the Third 
Avenue Street Car Company, aud Is situated on Third 
avenue and Sixty-fifth street. The bnlldlng la Im 
men sc, being COO feet by 200, Is made mostly of iron 
and brick, and beside* Doing substantial, and about 
the same as fireproof, It presents- an appearance unu- 
sually ailractirc for a stmeture of the kind. The 
rascJido has three towers, there being n fine clock in 
the main one; and the getters! architectural design is 
not only tasteful, but peculiarly suited to Its position 
and purpose. There are three stories— the first for 
horses, the second for cars, and the tliltd for horse 
with perfect arrangements for Ingres mid ogress, nnJ 
with ventilation, drainage and all appurtenances so 
complete Hint it would seem Idle to propose a change. 
The number of horses tinder its roof mid skylights Is 
now about 1,71*1, In fine condition, and average vary 
well for such extensive stables, while many of the 
trams are noticeably superior in size, smoothness and 
flesh. Fifty thousand pounds of corn and oats, ground 
by two "rim" of steam mills, mixed with cut hay, aro 
fed daily. Twenty horse shoers arc occupied shoeing 
In the shops, and the number of grooms attending the 
stalls proportionately large. The general manage- 
ment by Sami. L. Phillips, Esq., President, is nndci] 
atood to be decidedly acceptable to the company, anu 
It certainly should be acceptable to the horses, as he 
was recently overheard to give an order prohibiting 
any unnecessary Infliction of pain or punishment to 
nil animal imd»r any circumstances; which regard for 
the feeling of brutes seems ns commenduble as It Is 
gentlemanly nml humane. The more immmedl.xte sit 
perinlemloncy of the stables devolves upon Dr. J. M. 
Heard, V. S., who, while he looks after tho horses in 
dally use. gives attention to the few In the ••hospital,” 
and by his skill and experience in their treatment is 
worthily successful. By onjoininga tidiness through- 
out the main building— the men, however, priding 
themselves upon tho neatness of their floors— the sani- 
tary condition is of conrse Improved, and the sur 
roundings more airy and agreeable. For the Interests 
of the company, it would seem tlTat the managerial 
head* are adequate to the situation; and that the 
horses are in good hands is beyond dispute. 
A fine steam engine and machinery enable the com- 
pany to make Us own cars and to do nil repairing, 
ami thus by n compact system of business and a 
wholesome discipline in the departments the success 
obtained is the natural corollary of what is earned 
and deserved.

vours. They are the best now offered to gentlemen 
Sportsmen.”

with the material and tit. They cannot be excelled."

w ith Holabird's Snooting Coats." 
Would also refer with pleasure to B. F. Bowles, 
Esq., Springfield, Maes.
