CRAWFORD PRIORY is a chesnut horse, standing sixteen hands, with exceptionally uood bone, substance, and beautiful quality, He is perfectly quiet to ride or handle, and was bred by Sir Thos. Elder, of the famed Morphettville stud, South Australia, by Gang Forward (imported)—dam Peradventure (imported), by Adventurer—Manganese, by Irish Birdcatcher—Moonbeam, by Tomboy—Lunatic, by Prime Minister-Maniac, Shuttle—Anticipation, Adventurer, by Newminstnr- Palma, by Emilias—Francesca. Newminster, 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—Electress. Orlando, by Touchstone —Vulture, by Langar. Stockwell, by The Baron—Pocahontas, by Glencoe. The Baron, by Irish Birdcatcher—Echidna, by Economist. Whether for racing ■or general purposes, CRAWFORD PRIORY'S breeding cannot be excelled, as his pedigree contains tho names of most of the greatest stud successes known to fame. Riddlcsworth wsb by Emilias, and any of his descendants are highly esteemed, and justly so, their genuineness being universally admitted. CRAWFORD PRIORY'S, dam Peradventure, through her sire Adventurer, is a great, granddaughter ofEmilius, whilst Maniac, theg.g.g, damof Peradveuture, was Riddlesworths granddam. Manganese won the 1000 guineis, and is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. I.eger, better known as "The Parson'b 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 Btyled " The sire of tlnAge"—Adventurer,Orlando. Touchstone, Stockwell, The Baton, Irish Birdcatcher; and on the dam's sido gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palma, Francesea, Beeswing, Lady Mary, Splitvote, Pocahontas, and Echidna, tho qutstion to dntermiro 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 his brother and sister, Guesswork and Conjecture. The former won several good races in the Australian Colonies, and afc weight for age as a three-yeai-old in the Champion Race of 1883, got to the end of 3 miles in the wonderful time of sinin. 26iec., many who were present averring that he actually won, the verdict against him being only a Bhort head in the great Commotion's favor. Conjectura recently at Adelaide ran second for the £2,000 Cup, beating everything opposed to her but Malta. She afterwards at auction realised a thousarr guineas, Guesswork going to the same purchaser for Peradventure's four foals by Gang Forward were 6old for two thousand six hundred and thirty guineas, an average of over six hundred and fifty guineas each which would have hen largely increased had not Crawford Priory been withdrawn from competition according to arrangement after the 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 be counted by hundreds of thousands sterling. Owing to an accident when a yearling, Crawtord Priory w.is not (rained. He was used for one season as a sire, and his stock piomiss well. As CHAWFOIID PRIORY is not likely to be more linn one season in the Wairarapa, breeders are invito! to take advantage of the prcsenco amongst them of a sire of the very highast class.
