* IN consequence of a resolution of
X the Gi tier.il Assembly, passed ut
their late session, I am i;,r cructed by
the Executive to make enquiry res
pecting tlie situation of all Ordnance
and Military Store.*, belonging to the
state (not including those in the ser
vice of the United States or of this
State) and make report thereof to tiuv
Governor.
In obedience to this instruction; and
ns the most probable mean of ellect
ing the object contemplated by the Ex
ecutive, I have thought proper thus
publicly to request of such of the citi
zens of the commonwealth as may
have any knowledge of the situation,
number, quality and si/.e or weight of
any cannon or other ordnance, and
muskets ; cannon bails, shells or oilier
military stores, supposed to belong to
the state, and not in immediate use, to
communicate a particular report there
of to me as soon ar, convenient.

fc&ion, and aa to mufcular drength Sc beau
ty not inferior to s^ny horse io the date. He
ia the only horfe in this country that has
won 4 king’s plates in one year ; this he did
in 1800 ; see R. C. for that year. Not*
withdandiog this and other anexccptiona*
ble evidences of Knowsley’a fuperior worth,
yet a perfonal view of him will be his bed
recommendation.
Knowslby will dand the enfuing feafon
at our liable in Albcmailc- county, 10 miles
above Charlottesville, to cover mares at 20
dollars the feafon, for which notes will be
required, payable on or before the 15th o
Sept. next; 14 dollars the leap, and 40 dolf
lara to insure a mare to be in ioal. with one
dollar to the groom, which, with the leap
money, mud be paid when the mare is co
vered. Thufe gentlemen who fent mares j
to Kuowsley lad feafon and did not prove
with foal, (hall have them infured this fea
foo for 20 dollars, except thufe which were
covered by the leap; for fuch 26 dots, will
be required. Any gentleman puttiog fix
mares, (hall have one covered gratis. The
feafon will commence on the id of March,
and expire the id of Augud next.
We shall be able to furnish upwards
of 200 acres of excellent pasturage,
gratis, well enclosed, in 5 separate
fields, besides several grass lots, which
will be Jceptexclusively for marcs with
«.uus, ana inuse wmcn may oe sent De
fore foaling. Servants sent with mares
will be boarded at Os. per week. Mares
will be fed, as directed, at thie market
price of grain—and gentlemen may !
rest assured that ail possible care and !
attention shall be paid to the mares
left with the horse, both to have them
got with toal, and to prevent accidents
or escapes—but no responsibility lor
any that may happen.
KNOWSLEY was purchased by I
us in March last, from Mr Lightfoot,
at 555,000.—He covered 165 inares
out ol which number, as far as * e
have been able to learn, very few have
not proved with foal.
KNOWSLEY’s sire, the famous
Sir Bcter Teazle, now covers in En
gland by subscription, a limited num
ber of marer, at 25 guineas each ; no
other horse at more than 12 guineas.
In 1804, lie had 24 winning colts
on the turf, when no other horse had
more than K*» -and out of 23 king’s
plates rim lor, 8 were won by his
colts—see R. C. for 1804— the last
arrived. From the present appear
ance of KWwsley’s colts, and the suc
cessful performance of his stock on the
turf in England, very little doubt can
bo sntertained but that his colts will
prove also successful on the turf in
this country. The annexed certifi-'
oates from such respectable charac
ters, will place Knowsley, as a foal
getter, on as high ground as any other
horse in the state. I
