Burden's Patent Horse Shoes.—We were shewn a tew days since, some pa tent Horse Shoes, made at Troy, in a ’machine, the invention of Mr. Burden, the constructer of the steam-boat, which * was unfortunate'v lost last year on the * North River. These shoes are manu factured of wrought iron, and the iron is put into one end of the machine, and comes out at the other end a complete horse shoe, curved, regulated and uniform. We understand that the machine, throws off thirty in a minute! This invention 'cannot fail to securea liberal recompence to Mr. Burden, who was so great a sufferer, in a pecuniary point of view, by the loss of his boat. In conversation with Mr. B. the other day, he informed us that a boat on his plan was now building in Troy, intended to * run on the Farmington, Hampden and Hampshire Canal, and that she would be in operation in the course of a month or two. He has received letters from gentle men of science in Paris, on the subject of his boat, —and one has been constructed on his model, to ply between Paris and Rouen.— N YEnquirer. Poison on Cake, — Some days ago, con siderable excitement prevailed in the city, in consequence of the sudden illness of se veral persons, after eating plumb cake. At the request of gentlemen of the faculty the cake was submitted to Mr. Chilton, a celebrated chemist in this city. The fol lowing letter from that gentleman should be read by every one who make use of those deleterious compounds called “Orn amental Confectionary.”— N. Y. Times. I observed in some of the public prints about a week since, an account of some ornamental confectionary which had been eaten by a family in Reed street,and which produced severe symptoms of poisoning. As the account of its poisonous composi tion was there incorrectly stated, I deem ii a duty I owe the public, to lay before them a more correct statement, in hope that by so doing, it may prevent the man ufacturers of confectionary from again a busing their confidence. The article in question was handed to me for analysis by the attending physi cians. Dr. A. E. Hossackand Dr. Wilkes It consisted of plumb cake with sugared ornaments of various colors on top.— I as certained by analysis that the poison exis ted in the green, from twenty grains of which I separated four grains of arsenite ol copper, a pigment known under the names of Scheeles' green, mineral green, French green, tec. It is a compound of ar senious acid (white arsenic) and oxide of copper. ' The cake, I understood, was purchased in 'Broadway. A similar article has been sold in another part of the city, a sample of which was handed me a day or two a go by Dr. Van Zandt. His father who had eaten but a small piece of the orna mental part, was seized with violent vom iting and purging. As soon as my time will permit, I in tend to analyze some other articles of con fectionary, such as various colored toys, sugariplums, &c. which no doubtpn many instances, are colored with deleterious substances. Yours, tec. J. R. CHILTON. Hints to Auctioneers.— Last week a person residing in the noighborhood of Keaswick, having several hives of bees to dispose of, and being desirous to at tract purchasers caused a placard to be Jirinted announcing the sale,with the fol owing extraordinaryheadlines. “Exten sive sale of live stock, comprising no less than one hundred and forty thousand head with an unlimited right of pasturage!” The fuse sue ceeded.

IN consequence of the season having so far advanced, and having made no arrangement ' fora stand in Burke County for BERTRAND, ’ Jr., I have thought it most advisable to keep i him in this place at least for the remainder of i the preseni season. He will stand the present season in the vi cinity of AUGUSTA, and will serve Mares at the low price of S6O for the season; but in the event of the mare or mares not proving in foal, or loosing her colt, before its proper time, or the death of the mare, the owner of such mare will have the privilege of putting the same, or any one mare that may have belonged to him 3 months previous to the time of his putting her, by paying an additional sum of $5„ The money for the season S6O, must be paid, or a note negotiable given when the mare is put to the Horse. O’ Gentlemen sending mares from a dis tance, to the care of the subscriber, can have them fed on as low terms as the country will af ford, and every care taken to prevent accidents or escapes,—but I will not be liable for either, should any happen. One of his colts two years old this spring may be seen at the stand. DESCRIPTION. BERTRAND, Jr. is about 5 feet 2 inches high, of a deep chesnut color, without auy white, of perfect symmetry, great muscular de velopment, and commanding appearance: he was foaled on the 2d of April, 1827. PEDIGREE. BERTRAND, Jr. was sired by that famous Horse Old Bertrand, who was got by old Sir Archy, (whose pedigree I deem unnecessary to give,) his dam Eliza, (full sister to the well known horse Old Gal 1 atin,) by imported Bedford g. dam the imported mare Mambrino. BER TRAND, Jr.’s dam, Transport, was got by Vir ginius, her dam the celebrated running mare Nancy Air—(for her pedigree see American Turf Register, Vol. 11, page 309.) Virginius was got by the imported horse Diomed; his dam Rhea, was got by Chatham;his g’ dam by Eclipse his g. g. dam by the imported horse Shark; his g. g. g. dam by the imported horse Silver Eye; hisg. g. g.g. dam by the imported horse Valiant. I deem it unnecssary to trace the pedigree of BERTRAND, Jr. further, as his stock is so well known throughout the United States. Transport, his dam, was never beaten a 4 mile race, nor never pnt up in a race of 4 miles,.after a mile and a half; and never lost but one race, and that a 3 mile, handy cap race—and then, not in condition. Bertrand, his sire, run 12 miles in 23 minutes and 22 seconds; making the time in 28 seconds less than Henry M and Eclipse did, on Long Island. PERFORMANCES. At Charleston, Feb 25, 1831, when 3 years old, he beat Johnston’s Andrew, by Sir Charles Pelham, and Minna Brenda, 2 mile heats’ at 4 heats; Pelham winning the Ist heat, and Ber trand, Jr. was second in the heat. Andrew won the 2d heat, and Bertrand, Jr. the 3d and 4th heats. Time—lst heat, 3m. 535.; 2d heat, 3m. 495.; 3d heat 3m. 505.; 4th heat, 3m. 575. In this race’he realized all that had been anticipated from his blood. Over the Washington Course, February, 1832, when 4 years old, Thursday, three mile heats, purse, $650, he beat Col. Wm. Johnson’s c. f. Annett, by Sir Charles, and Col Furger son’s Lafayette; in this race Annett won the first heat by a head, and Bertrand Jr. the 2d; after this she was withdrawn, and he walked over for the third heat. Time—lst heat, sm. 455.; 2d heat, sm. 58s. After this, Col. J. B. Richardson challenged Andrew, and Bonnets O’Blue, with Bertrand Jr., and Little Venus, for $5,000 aside each horse, half forfeit—which Andrew paid to Bertrand Jr. January 30, 1833, at Columbia, (S. C.) he was beaten by Col. R. Singleton’s horse Godolphin, 3 mile heats, at three heats. Time Ist heat, 6m. Is; 2d heat, 6m. 16s; 3d heat 6m. 10s. Track heavy. At Charleston, [S. C.] February 26, 1833 purse SI,OOO-4 mile heats, he beat Wm. G. Haun’s f. Rattle Snake, and Col. R. Singleton’s horse Godolphin, at three heats—distancingthe latter the third heat. Time Ist heat, 7m 50s; 2d heat, Bm, 3d heat 8m Bs. When 6 years old he beat over the Washing ton Course, near Charleston, Feb. 26,1834, Wm. G. Haun’s horse Plato, the latter being drawn after the Ist heat. Time—lst heat, 7m 555; 2d heat he walked over the Course. At Columbia, [S. C.] January 19 1835, he was beaten by Argyle, at 2 heats, 4 miles: Time— -Ist heat 8m 4s; 2d heat, 8m 465. For the Ist heat of this race Bertrand Jr. did not contend, and in the 2d heat his rider, through mistake, stopped him still after running Smiles, which gave Argyle such an advantage, that he was not able to overtake him again. I have not a statement of the racesat Charles ton, in Feb- last, only from recollection, there fore I may err. Argvle again beat him 4 mile heats, at 2 heates. Time, as recollected, Ist heat, 8m ss; 2d heat, 8m Bs. He was also beaten by Patsey Wallace,for the handy cap race, 3 mile heats. Time not known to me. Thus you will see that he has never been beaten by any horse except Argyle, and Patsey Wallace and Godolphin, and in the races with Argyle he carried his 24 lbs., the most weight, which would make a wide gap between horses of equal speed and bottom in 4 miles. And to convince the public, that he has no su perior, 1 will reter them to the lime as> given by the South Carolina Jockey Club of his races. When 3 years old,he won the 3d heat of2 miles, in 3m. 50s. When 4 years old, he lost a heat of 3 miles, with Annett, by a head, in sm. 455. When 5 years old, he run 12 miles in 23m. 58s. only 8 seconds over the time of Eclipse and Henry; his second heat in this race was a better heat than Argyle ever has made at any time; he has also run 2 mile heats in less time, and 3 mile heats in less time than Argyle ever did ; he also stood champion of the Southern Turf for four successive seasons. Let those who succeed him, do the same, and make the time which he has done, and then they may be considered his equal; but he, like all other horses, has had his day, and must give place to those of a more suit able age than himself for the turf, as any gentle man acquainted with racing knows that an aged horse rarely, or never wins, from 4 and 5 years old, any thing like their equal. The above pedi gree, performances, &c. &c. is correct to the best of my knowledge and belief. J. B. RICHARDSON. Home, Sumter Dis. S. C. March 25, 1835. N. B. As evidence of good constitution and long life of his stock, his dam is now in foal by Godolphin, and is 24 years old this spring, and looks like she might have 3 or 4 colts more,with good care. Anotherfact of theBERTRAND stockis,that there are about 30 winners, and some aged ones; and among that number not one single one has ever been broke down, or give way in the least, which no other Stallions in the United States can boast of.
