VOLCANO was got by Stockholder. his dam, ihe f,mous little mare Forest-M aid bs Ratray, of whom Mir. J. c. Beasley said, she was the best nag of her size he had ever seen, and that she was "a friend l to poor man in a strange country CT losing on all his ether horses, he coud with eonfid ence, bet his last dollar on her, whenever she started for four mile heat. His grandam was the equally celebrated mare Maid of-the- Oaks, by imported Spread Eagle, one of the best four mile nags of her day in Virginia, his 2. grandam, which as also the dam of Nancy Air, was by im-

 ported Shark, 2. 2. 2. dam by Rockingham, g. z. 2. g. dam by Gallant, g.g.g.g. dam by True Whig, 6. g. g. g. s. g. dam ! by Reguits.

 Of Stockholder, VOLCANO'S sire, it is unnecessary 10 say aught; he IS too veil known as a racer and stallion, to require the prop Of a long pedigree. 1t may not be amiss, however, te state, that he " as got by old Sir Arehy, and his dam by Im ported Citizen, the best blood that Amerl- ca can boast. Isatray, the sire of Nolca- nos dam, was by the imported horse Cliff den; lis dam by Fitzpartner; his grandam Araminna, who was got by Brimmer out ofMr. Peyton Randolph,s celebrated mare Lovely .ass-

 Imported Spread Eagle, was got by Vol unteer, his dam by High Flyer, grandam by Engineer, ont of the dam of Bay Nal ton and Treasurer; she was got bY Cade, out of the Lass of the Mill, by Old Ira weller.

 Spread Eagle is unpopular with many sportsmen; but would ask what horse has better pedigree, and what imported horse has got as many capital racers! Itis e. nough to say, that Spread Eagle was the sire of the Maid Oaks, Paragon. A. deline, Red-Eye, and Eleden's Fiereita; all winners of severe four mile races, con lending with the best horses of Virginia. Floretta made better time over the Wash ington course than was ever made before or since, beating, in three heats, Top Gal lant, Oscar, First Consul, and another; running each heat under eight minutes, and the second neat in seven minutes, fifty two seconds.
