STAND THIS SEASON, T LANGDALE, Whareama,the Thoroughbred Sire CRAWFORD PRIORY, FOAIED 1878, CRAWFORD PRIORY is a chesnut horse, standing sixteen hands, with exceptionally good bone, substance, and beautiful quality. He is perfectly quiet to ride or handle, and nas bred by Sir Thos. Elder, of the famed Morphettville stud, South Australia, by Gang Forward (imported)—dam Peradven turo (imported), by Adventurer—Manganese S by Irish Birdcatchcr—Moonbeam, by Tom boy—Lunatic, by Prime Minister—Maniac, by Shuttle-Anticipation, Adventurer, bv Newminstor- Palma, byEmilins—Francesca, Newmmster, by Touchstone-Beeswing, Gang Forward (winner of the 2000 guineas, 1873), by Stockwell—Lady Mary, by Orlando —Splitvote (granddam of St. Albans), by St. Luke—Eleetress.

The Baron by Irish Birdcatoher—Echidna, by Econo mist, Whether for racing or general purposes, CRAWFO'IU) PRIORY'S breeding cannot be'excelled, as his pedigree contains the names of most of the greatest stud successes known to fame. Eiddlesworth was by Emilius, and any of his descendants are highly esteemed, and justly so, their genuineness being universally admitted. CRAWFORD PRIORY'S, dam Peradven l ture, through her aire Adventurer, is a great., granddaughter of Emilius, whilst Maniac, theg.g.g. damof Peradventure, was Riddlesworth's granddam. Manganese won the 1000 guineas, and is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. I.eger, better known afl "The Parsou's Mire," 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 his stock styled " The sire of tlnAge"—Adventurer,Orlando, Touchstone, Stockwell, The Baron, Irish Birdcatcher; and on the dam's side gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palma, Francesca, Beeswing, Lady Mary, Splitvote, Pocahontas, and Echidna, the question to determine 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 PEIOEY'S pedigree calls to mind the performances of his brother and sister, Guesswork and Conjecture. The former won several good races m the Australian Colonies, and at weight for age as a three-yeai-old m the Champion Bace of 1883, got to the end of 8 miles in the wonderful time of smin. 26sec. t many who We present averring that lie actually won, 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 to her but Malta. She afterwards at auotion realised a thousand guineas, Guesswork going to the same purchaser for eleven hundred guineas, Perad venture'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 been withdrawn from com petition according to arrangement after tht first bid, and it should be remembered that these prices were obtained in one of the Australian colonies where the money invested in thoroughbred horses can bs counted by hundreds of thousands sterling, Owing to an accident when a yearling, Crawford Priory was not trained. He was used for one season as a sire, and his stock promise well As CRAWFORD PRIORY is not likely to be more than one season in the Wairarapa, breeders are invited to take advantage of the presence amongst them of a sire of the very Terms, £6 6s each mare, A reduction for two or more, the bona fide of Bender.
