Stockwell, by The Baron—Pocahontas, by Glencoe, The Baron, by Irish Birdcateher—Echidna, by Econo. mist, 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. Biddlesworth was by Emilius, and any of his descendants are hiphly eßteemed ; and justly bo, their genuineness being universally admitted. CRAWFORD PRIORY'S, dam Peradventure, through her aire Adventurer, is a great., granddaughter, of Emilius, whilst Maniac, i theg.g.g.damof Peradventure, was Riddlesworth's granddam. Manganese won the 1000 guineis,. and is the granddam. of Apology, winner of the Grpat; St. leger, better known.bb " The Parson's Mire,'' and Agility, another celebrity. When the leading' lines of a pedigree are occupied by such sires as Newminster-the sire nf Hermit, through the success of his stock styled " The sire of tbiAge"—Adventurer, Orlando, Touchstone, Stockwell, The Baron, Irish Birdcateher; and on the dam's Bide gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palma, Francesca, Beeswing, Lady Mary, Splitvote, Pocahontaß, and Echidna, the question to determine is, could there possibly do 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 m the Australian Colonies, and at weight for age as a thfee-yeai-old in the Champion Race oj 1883 t got to the end of 3 miles in the wonderful time of 6min. 265e0., many who were present averring that he actually won, th'everdiot against him being only; a.short -head Jri''.:the; great GOmrnotion'f favor. Conjecture recently at Adelaide ran second for the ■: £2,000 Cup,- heating everything opposed to her but Malta. She afterwards at auction, .realised a thousand guineas, Guesswork going to the same purchaser for eleven hundred guineas.

Peradventure's four foals by Gang Forward were eold for two thousand six hundred and thirty guineas, an average of over six hundredand fifty guineas each which would have hen largely increased had not Crawford Priory been withdrawn from competition according to arrangement after the first bid, and.it Bhould be remembered that these ,prices; were obtained in one of the Australian colonies where the money investad in thoroughbred horses can be counted by hundreds of thousands sterling. Owing to au_ accident when a yearling, Crawford Prioty was not trained. He tos used for one season as a aire, and his Btook 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.
