Cassivelanu.s is a bright bay, with black points, s.andmg over 10 hands, and showing immense power and great quality. .As a two-year-old he won two races at Newmarket, beating large fields. Caraelacus is now the most fashionable as well as the most desirable representation of the Venison blood Kings on was m every respect bred to stay. Hi) sire, Venison, proved himself a horse of undeniable stoutness, and it is Worthy of remark that during his career as a turoo year-old ho travelled on foot ins circuit, which the more modern wonders (Fisherman aid Uataplau) accomplished by rail. It is stated upon reliable authority that Venison walked upwards of 900 mdes, ran fourteen, and won twelve linos in his three-year-old racing season. . . . Caractacas is in every way most worthy the notice ot breeders who fancj' the VeuioOii and Defence blood (and who couid object to the latter especially I) more particularly as he—as wdi as bearing a marked resemblance to his handsome son in other respects—has a go.<h temper. . . .
