VOLCANO was got by Slockholder, his dam, the famous little mare Forest Maid by Ratray, Of whom Mr. J. C, Beasley said, she was the best nag of her size he had ever seen, aud that she was . a friend to poor man in strange country CT losing on all his other horses, he could, with confidence, bet his last dollar on her whenever she started for four mile heat. His grandam was the equally celebrated mare Maid Oaks by imported Spread Eagle, one of the best four mile nags of her day in Virginia, his g. grandam, which was also the dam of Nancy Air, was by im- ported Shayk, g. g. dam by Rockingham, g. g. g. g. dam by Gallant, g. g. g. g.g dam by True Whig, g. g. g. g.g.g g. dam by Reguius.

 Of Stockholder, VOLCANO,S sire, it is unnecessary to say aught; he is too we'll known as racer and stallion, to require the prop of long pedigree. It may not he amiss, however, to state, that he was got by old sir Archy, and his dam by I'm ported Citizen, the best blood that Ameri ca can boast. Ratray, the sire of Yolca nos dam, was by the imported horse Cliff den; his dam by Fitzpartner; his grandam Araminna, who was got by Brimmer out of MT. Peyton Randolph's celebrated mare Lovely Lass.

 Imported Spread Eagle, was got by Vol unteer, his dam by High Flyer, grandam by Engineer, out of the dam of Bay Mal- t3n 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 1 would ask, what horse has a better pedigree ,and what imported horse 

 enough to say, that Spread Eagle was the sire of the Maid -of-the Oaks, Paragon, 4 d. cline, Red=EYe, and EIeden's Floretta; all winners of severe four mile races, con- tending with the best horses of Virginia. Fioretta 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 heat in seven minutes and fifty two seconds.
