Beasiey said, sire vas the best nag of her size he had ever seen, and that she was e friend to a poor man in a strange countJy y''-after 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 tie equally celebrate ed mare Maid of the- 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 inn ported shark, g. g. 2. dam by Rockingham, g g. g. g. dam by Gallant, g. g. g.g dam by True Whig, g. g. g. g. g. g. dam by Regulus.

 Of StUckholder, N0LCAN0'S sire, it IS unnecessary to say aught; he is too we'll known as racer and stallion, to require the prop of Q long pedigree. It may not be amlss, however, to state, that he was got by old sir Archy, and his dam by Im- ported Citizen, the best blood that Ameri- ca can boast. Ratray, the sire of Volca no7s dam, was by the imported horse Cliff den; his dam by Fitzpartner; his grandam Araminna, who was got by Brimmer out Of Mr Peyton Randolph's celebrated mare Lovely Lass.

 Imported Spread Eagle, was got by Vol anteer, his dam by High Flyer, grandam by Engineer, out of the dam of Hay Nal t3n and Treasurer; she was got by Cade, out of the Lass of tue Mill, by Old Ira. weller.

 Spread Eagle is unpopular with many sPortsmen; but wouId ask, what horse has a better pedigree ,and what imported horse has got as many capital racers! It is enough to say, that Spread Eagle was the sire of the Maid-of-the Oaks, Paragon, Ad- cline, Red-Eye, and EIeden's Floretta; all winners of severe four mile races, con tending with the best horses of Virginia. Floretta made better time oyer the Wash. ingion course than was ever made before or since, heating. in three heafs, Top Gal running each heat under eight minutes, and the second heat in seven minutes and fifty two seconds.
