Imported Major was bred in England, and sold to the late John Commode, of Tasmania, for £lOOO, and then purchased by the late Ben Newel, Esq., for the sum of £l3OO, for New Zealand, where hie stock are deemed, in Auckland and Wanganui, the guinea stamp at first sight, without further investigation. He is now in Canterbury, where stock owners often ride thirty hnd forty miles to see Major, and good judges say that Major is the most perfect horse that ever left England. The famed Nugget, in Waikato, is by Major, and Mr T. Greg’s Young Major, at Wanganui. The greatest favorite m all that part is a son to the renowned old horse: the best mares north and south trace decent to Major ; likewise the prize-takers at the Auckland Show for many years. Sir Julius is now rising 7 years old. As a proof of Major’s quality, Kate, the Champion Prize Mare of Canterbury and Otago (where good Clydesdale stock is appreciated), was mated to the renowned cbesnul, Old Major.
