SOLOMON AS A 1-IoW1r:M.tN.—Clip• ton races will be held Friday of this week. \Vo are told that the various classes are well filled and that com- petition for the various prizes will be keen. Good sport is anticipated. Solomon appears to have been a great admirer of horses, and he was not considered a fool. Indeed the best men of all times since havo been admirers of the noble steed and encouraged the breeding of. thein for driving and speeding pur- poses. The purpose of the Clinton race meetings is to bo test these qualities. Previous to the days of Solomon horses were rare among the Hebrews, but it appears that the author of the fatuous remark about all being vanity was a great admirer of horses and after, his marriage with the daughter of Pharaoh he had horses brought out of Egypt', and so rapidly did 'he multiply there by purchase and breeding that those kept for his own use required, as it is written, "4,000 stables and 40,000 stalls." Hence, when honor- ed by a visit from the beautiful queen of Sheba, bringing with her "camels bearing spices" and :'very much gold and precious stones," it was doubtless in the contemplation of his magnificent stud of horses and chariots, kept for the amusement of his Mormon settlement of wives, as well as of his other vast displays of power and magnificence, that her majesty exclaimed in the fullness of her admiration : "Howbeit I believ- ed not the words until 1 carne and mine eyes had seen it, and behold the half was not told nio." This gallant monarch appears to have enjoyed a monopoly of the horse trade with Egypt. His merchants supplied horses in groat abundance to the Hittite kings. Tho fixed price was.150 shekels for one,horee' and 600 shekels for a sot of chariot horses, and it is quits possible that any one of'the horses that will trot in Clinton on Friday the 23rd could throw dust in the oyes of Solomon's * t t * * I * 't' * t 5 Per 01.
