CRAWFORD PRIORY iB a chesnut horse, standing sixteen hands, with exceptionally good bone, substance, and beautiful quality, He is perfectly quiet to ride or handle, and ivas bred by Sir Thos. Elder, of the famed Morphettville stud, South Australia, by Gang Forward (imported)—dam Peradvento (imported), by Adventuier—Manganese, by Irish Birdcatoher—Moonbeam, by Tom boy—Lunatic, by Prim'e Minister—Maniac, by Shuttls—Anticipation. Adventurer, bv Newminster- Palms, by Emilins—Fraacesea, Newminster, by Touchstone—Beeswing, Gang Forward (wiener of the 2000 guinea*, 1873), by Stockwell-lady Maty, by Orlando —SpHtvote (granddam of St, Albans), by St. Luke—Electress. Orlando, by Touchstone —Vulture, by Langar. Stockwel), by The Baron—Pflcabontas.byGlencoe, The Baron, by Irish Birdoatcher—Echidna, by Economilt. Whether for racing or general purposes, CRAWFORD PRIORY'S breeding cannot be excelled, as bfs pedigree contains the names of most of tne greatest stud successes known to fame. Riddlesworth was by Emilins, and any of his descendants are highly esteemed, and justly so, their CRAWFORD PRIORY'S, dam Peradventare, through her sire Adventurer, is a great, granddaughter of Emilius, whilst Maniac, the g. e.g. dam of Peradventure, was Riddlesworth s granddam. Manganese won the 1000 guineas, and is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. Leger, better known as " The Parson's Miro," and Agility, another celebrity. When the leading lines of a pedigree are occupied by such sires as Newminster-the sire of Hermit, through the success of bis etook styled " The sire of tin Age"—Adventurer, Orlando, Touchstone, Stockwell, The Baron, Irish Birdoatcher; and on the dam's side gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palma, Franceses, Beeswing, Lady Mary, Splitvote, Pocahontas, and Echidna, the question to dotermine is, could there possibly be a grander combination of all that time has over and over again proved to be excellent, than the breeding.of the subject of this notice. The perusal of CRAWFORD PRIORY'S pedigree calls to mind the performances of nis brother and sister, Guesswork and Con jeoture. The former won several good races in the Australian Colonies, and at weight for age as a three-year-old in the Champion Race of 18X3, got to the end of 3 miles in the wonderful time'of smin. 26sec., many who were present averring that he aotuallywon, the verdict against him being only a short head in the great Commotion's favor, Conjecture recently at Adelaide ran second for the £2,000 Cup, beating everything opposed to her but Malta. She afterwards at auction realised a thousand guineas, Guesswork going to the same purchaser for eleven hundred guineas. Peradventure's four foals by Gang Forward were sold for two thousand six hundred and thirty guineas, an average of over six hundred and fifty guineas each which would have been largely increased had not Crawford Priory peen withdrawn from com> petition according to arrangement after the nrßtbid, and it should be remembered that these prices were obtained in one of the in thoroughbred horses can be counted by hundreds of thousands sterling. Owing to hn accident when a yearling, Crawford Priory wsb not trained. He was used {or one season as a sire, and his stock promise Well.
