THE CULTIVATOR. 
May, 
Mr. Chapman does not pretend to deny my positions, when con¬ 
strued as I have here set them forth. He makes another issue. I ad¬ 
mit that Mr. Vail’s Wellington has more Duchess blood than Cam¬ 
bridge. I never thought he had not; never said he had not; and ne¬ 
ver wrote or spoke a sentence that would in any manner, directly or 
indirectly, indicate such a thing ; and but from misconception or de¬ 
sign, I never would have been charged, directly or by deduction, 
with the assertion, that “ from Mr. Sherwood, and from him alone , 
the Duchess blood can be procured,” nor with the assertion, direct or 
consequential, “ that Cambridge has more Duchess blood than any 
bull of Mr. Bates’ breeding in America.” 
Mr. Chapman institutes a comparison between Mr. Vail’s animals 
and Cambridge, in point of Duchess blood , giving pedigrees. I could 
investigate these pedigree, and will hereafter. He wisely makes no 
comparison between those animals in their physical character. I 
could, but will not now, though I will hereafter. I will merely say, 
that excellence in the physical animal consists of “ style, quality and 
substance,” and excellence in blood consists in having good blood, 
unmixed with bad blood ; and as like begets like, it is necessary that 
animals should have their descent, not only from pure blood, but from 
animals ivho were characterised by physical excellence. I know Mr. 
Bate’s herd, and certainly am not to be instructed in the excellence 
of Mr. Bates’ Duchess tribe, by those who have never seen a single 
animal of it. Mr. Chapman has stated matters to which I now make 
no allusion, but I beg to assure him that I will return to them here¬ 
after, when it will be more proper to discuss them than now, and 
when I shall not be charged, as I have been, with views and purpo¬ 
ses which I have never entertained. A. STEVENS.

* of James Rice, in Spiegletown, three miles north of the village 
of Lansingburgh He is a beauiiful dapple grey, 15f hands high, 
strongly and finely proportioned; has trotted his mile in two minutes 
and fifty seconds ; is a square trotter, and combines first-rate trotting 
qualities, and great powers of endurance, with unsurpassed gentle¬ 
ness and docility. His colts are justly celebrated for speed, bottom 
and good temper, are eagerly sought after in the market, and com¬ 
mand prices varying from $150 to $500. 
The very high reputation of his stock as road horses, and the ex¬ 
traordinary prices they command, render him by far the most profit¬ 
able horse to breed from of any in the country.

they will have such attendance and keeping as the owners desire, 
and upon the most reasonable terms. The horse will be under the 
charge of his former owner, Mr. Calvin Morse.
