Elder, of the famed Morphettville stud, South Australia, by Gang Forward (imported)—dam Peradventure (imported), by Adventmer—Manganese, by Irish Birdcatoher—Moonbeam, by Tomboy— Lunatic, by Prime Minister—Maniac, by Shuttle—Anticipation. Adventurer, bv Newminstor-PalmaibyEmilius-Francesca. Newminster, by Touchstone—Beeswing. Gang Forward (winner of the 2000 guineas, 1873), by Stockwell—Lady Maty, by Orlando —Splitvote (granddam of St, Albans), by St. Luke—Electress. Orlando, by Touchstone —Vulture, by Langar. Stookwell, 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 the names of .most of the greatest stud successes known to fame. Riddlesworth waß by Emilius, and any of his descendants aro highly esteemed, and justly so, their genuineness being universally admitted. CRAWFORD PRIORY'S, dam Peradventuro, through her 3ire Adventurer, is a great., granddaughter of Emilius, whilst Maniac, the g.g.g. damof Peradventuro, was Riddlesworths granddam, Manganese won the 1000 guineas, and is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. Leger, better known as " The Parson's Mare," and Agility, another celebrity. When the leading lines of a pedigree are occupied by such sires as Newminater—the sire of Hermit, through the success of his stook styled" The sire of thiAge"—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 determice is, could there possibly De 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 PEIORY'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 at weight for age as a fchree-yeai-old in the Champion Race of 18S3, got to the end of 3 miles in the wonderful time of smin. 26see., many who were present averring that he 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 opposed to her but Malta, She afterwards at auction realised a thousacr- 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 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 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 highest class.
