very active, and has got some remarkably handsome
colts, many of which may be seen in the poffeflion
of several gentlemen in the neighbourhood ofPhila
dclphia. It is needless to mention any thing more of
the size, figure or activity of the horse, as his cha
racter for each and all of them is so well established
through the States ; and will only add the certificates
of his pedigree for the fatisfaCtion of the public.
