Horsebreeders throughout this and surrounding districts will be interested to learn that Mr. G. F. Walker, the well known stud master of Aramoho, will be enabled to place at command during the ensuing season the services of Chain Link, a grandson of the great Musket, out of that grand Traducer mare Nautilus. The breeding, therefore, on both sides is unquestionably amongst the most fashionable and successful strains of winning blood stock, as a glance at the pedigree will show, ad follows:—Chain Shot, by Musket ,—Locket, by Thunderbolt, her dam .Keepsake, by Daniel O'Rourke, Locket, it may be mentioned, is the dam of Medallion, sire of the flying Achilles. Then, on tho dam's side—Nautilus, by Traducer, out of Waterwitidh by Camden, out of Snip—Mermaid, by King Tom, her dam Watenritchi by the Flying Dutchman —Evening tar, by' Touchstone. Nautilus, the dam of Chain Link, is also the mother of Cynisca, and Pygmalion;. Waterwicch, the dam of Natator and Norseman; and Mermaid the dam of Malic©, Luriine, Castaway, Le Loup, eto. Since Chain Link took up stud duties he has not had many chances with well bred mares, but there can be no doubt his services will be eargerly sought for hero. For further parftcrlsrs apply C. F. WALKER, Aramoho. i
