From the above pedigree it is seen that by
his dam and sire, Citizen is related to the uncom
mon stallion the Goiophiu Arabian in The ,hird
degiee; which mus, he acknowledged is nearer
than auy horse IN America, OF even in the
world and agreeable the description in the
stud book given of the Godolphin ne is as much
ike him. being only one inch higher. aud lacking
only few white hairs OH one heel. Including
the above immediate crosses from the Godol-
phin Citizen has twenty Arabian crosses, and
nearly as macy Barb crosses as traced from ;he
stud book so It may d. lusty said. lie is as near
being Arabian a. q horse can be, who was
not brought from that place and of this hs
looks will July convince the world when ,hey
see him. citizen was most eHcslient racer,
having won nineteen races, fourteen of 'hem
four miles, and six Of them were won a. thTse
heats. beating hS hess horses in England /; his
colts are now running in great credil in England
proving themselves Of equal bottom TO any hor
! ses IN ,hai country, winning many four mile
races, at three and four heats. He is sire OF
Nautilus, Pacolet, Citizen. Dapple, &c. &e.-

Mr Bafksiale Formerly Of Petersburg, aud sent

stood three seasons and covered upwards of 1OC
mares each season, although he stood at the same
stable. Mr. William Barksdale's leter, and o
