Extract of a letter from Mr. Robert Stevenson Cof- ,'t, now resident in Ncwburyport, Mass, address ed to the Editors^of the “ Casket," and 44 Saturday Evening Post. ,, Gentlemen,—The gratuitous offer o; your excel lent publication, the 44 CasketI assure you, meets from your sick and suffering friend with a cordial reception: the plates alone, at the close of a year, would be worth the trifling expense of the subscrip tion ; those representing the Capitol, at Harrisburg, Pa. and the Falls of the Passaic, N. J. are hand somely executed, anu add intrinsic value to the work; j in truth, I am free to say, that there is not within ihe compass of my knowledge, a work of the kind so well calculated to cheer the oppressed and languid spirits as the “ Casket;” the matter is diversified and useful—so much so, that there mnst always be found something to please the literary taste of every one, who tan be pleased at all. Perhaps, some folks may think me over-earnest in this matter, and that I am * only oaying you, gentlemen, an idle compliment for the gift of the paper—but it is not true; 1 speak with sincerity—not doubting but its subscribers will readily allow that mv remarks are just.—I am, gen tlemen, gratefully, yours, ROBERT S. COFFIN. The demand for the Casket already has been such as to compel the publishers to re-print a large edition of the two first numbers, the first edition having been nearly disposed of—and as it will be impossible for s them again to replace future numbers should they tun out, it is respectfully suggested to persons who wish to possess a copy of the work that they send in their names immediately.

May'18 th, 1827. j ts vkflitftt ia the effeewfraich iiiS wind has in this wild expanse of waving grass: jfp shades between the brawn and yellow are * tjearitifel—the scene is placid beyond de scription—-no habitation or human being is to be seen, unless occasionally the wild and picturesque outline of the Gaueho on the horizon—his scarlet poncho streaming hori zontally behind him, his balls flying round his head, and as he bends forward towards his prey, his horse straining every nerve: before him is the ostrich he is pursuing, the distance between them gradually diminish ing—his neck stretched out, and striding over the ground in the most magnificent style—but the latter is soon lost in the dis tance, and the Gaucho’s horse is often be low the horizon, while his head shows that the chase is not yet decided. This pursuit is really attended with considerable danger, for the ground is always undermined by the biscachos, and the Gaueho often falls at full speed ; if he breaks a limb his horse proba bly gallops away, and there he is left in the long grass, until one of his 'comrades or children come to his assistance; but if they are unsuccessful in their search, he has nothing left but to look up to heaven, and while he lives, drive from his bed the wild eagles, who are always ready to attack any fallen animal.” * * * * * * “ As the carriage was many hours behind me, I rode immediately to the corral, and soon made friends with the Gauchos, who are always polite, and on horseback possess many estimable qualities, which at the door of their hut they appear to be devoid of. The corral was quite full of hojrses, most of which were young ones, about three and four years old.—The capataz, mounted on a strong steady horse, rode into the corral, and threw his lasso over the neck of a young horse, and'dragged him to the gate. For some time he was very unwilling to leave his com rades, but the moment he was forced out of the corral, his first idea was to gallop away; however, the jerk of the lasso checked him in a most effectual manner. The peons now ran after him on foot, and threw the lasso over his fore legs, just above the fet locks, and, twitching it, they pulled his^gs from under him so suddenly, that^ really , thought the fall he got had kiWed him. In an instant a Gaueho was seated upon his head, and with his Wng knife in a few seconds he cut office whole of the horse's mane, while ap^her ent the hair from the end of his toid This, they told me, is a mark that tfce horse has been once mounted. They Ihfyi puta piece of hide into his mouth, to serine as- a hit, and a strong hide-halter on his head.—The Gaueho who was to 1 mount, arranged his spnrs, which were un usually long and sharp, and while two men. held the animal by his ears, he put on the saddle, which he girthed extremely right; he then caught hold of the horse’s ear, and, in an instant, vaulted into the saddle; upon which the roan who was holding the horse "Sr*'- B LANKS of all kinds^ and other j. gantly and promptly executed at tl where also an assortment kept on hand. ~ by the halter, threw, the end of it to the rider, e ‘ and from that moment no one seemed to take any further notice of him. The horse
