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 was bred by Sir Thos. Elder, of the famed Moiphettville f>tud, South Australia, by Gang Forward (imported)-dam Peradventure (imported), by Adventuier—Manganese, by Irish Birdcatcher—Moonbeam, by TomllOV—Lunatic, bv Prima Minint«i-_Mnnii>n by Shuttle—Anticipation.

Stockwell, by The Barou-Pncahontas,byGleMoe, The Baron, by Irish Birdcatcher—Echidna, by Economist, Whether for racing or geueral purposes, CRAWFOUD PRIOKY'S breeding cannot be excelled, as his pedigree contains the names of most of the greatest stud successes known to fame. Riddlesworth was by Emilius, and any of his descendants are highly esteemed, and justly so, their genuineness being universally admitted. CRAWFOUD PKIOM'S, dam Peradventuio, through her 3ire Adventurer, is a great., granddaughter of Kmilins, whilst Maniac, thog e.g. damof Peradventure, was Riddlesworihs g-anrtdiim. Manganese .won the 101)0 guineis, and ia the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. lager, better known as "The Parson's Mire," and Agility, another celebrity.

The perusal of CRAWFORD PRIORY'S pedigree csllb to mind the performances of his brother aud sister, Guesswork and Conjecture. The former won several good races in the Australian Colonies, and at weight for age as a three-yeai-old in the Champion Race of 1883, got to the end of 3 milea in the wonderful time of flmin. 28360., many who were present averring that he actually won, the verdiot against mm 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 auotion realised a thousary guineas, Guesswork going to the same purchaser for eleven hundred guineas. Peradventuro'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average of over six hundred and fifty guineas each which would have hen largely increased had not Crawford Priory been withdrawn from competition acoording to arrangemont after the first bid, and it skould be remembered that these prices were obtained in one of the Australian colonies where the money invested in hundreds of thousands sterling. Owing to rtn_ accident when a yearling, Crawford Priory w;is not trained. He was used for one season as a sire, and his stock- promise well.
