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 *as bred by Sir Thos. Elder, of the famed Morpbettville stud, South Australia, by Gang_ Forward (imported)-dam Peradventure (imported), by Adventurer-Manganese, by Irish Birdcatober-Moonbeam, by Tom-boy-Lunatic, by Prime Minister-Maniac, by Shuttle—Anticipation.

Gang Forward (winner of the 2000 guineas, 1873), by Stockwell—Lndy 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 ior racing or general purposes, CRAWFOKD PRIORY'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 hiehly esteemed, and justly so, their genuineness being universally admitted. ' CRAWFOKD PMORY'S, dam Peradventure, through her sire Adventurer, is a greatgranddaughter of Emilius, whilst Maniac, theg.g.g.damof Peradventure, was Riddlesworths granddam. Manganese won the 10U0 guineas, aud is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St, I.eger, better known as " The Parson's Mire," and Agility, another celebrity.

Touchstone, Stockwell, The Baron, Irish Birdcatcher; and on the dam's side gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palma, Francesea, 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 aeain proved to bo 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 at 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 brain. 263ec, many who were present averring that he actually won, the verdiofc 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 thoußat* guineas, Guesswork going to the same purchaser for oleven hundred guineas. Peradvonturo'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 the first bid, and it should he remembered that , these prices were obtained in one of the ; Australian colonies where the money invested , in thoroughbred horseß oan be counted by hundreds of thousands'sterling Owing to , au_ accident when a yearling, Crawiord Priory was not trainsd. He was used for , one season as a aire, and his stock promise , well. , As CRAWFORD PRIORY is not likely to bo more thin one season in the Wairarapa, [ breeders are invited to take advantage of the , presence amongst them of a sire of the very , highest class. .
