The horse family of the present day is divided, like most other families, i=
nto two factions, which may be described for variety's sake as those of the=
true horses and the donkeys, these latter including also the zebras, quagg=
as, and various other unfamiliar creatures whose names, in very choice Lati=
n, are only known to the more diligent visitors at the Sunday Zoo=2E Now ev=
erybody must have noticed that the chief broad distinction between these tw=
