From the above pedigree il is seen that bv
his dam and sire. Citizen is related to the uncoro.
mon stallion the Godophin Arabian in the third
degree; which must be Acknowledged is nearer
| than auy horse in America. Or even in the.
world; and agreeable to the description in The
stud book given of the Godolphin, he is as nuch
like him being only one inch higher, aud lacking
only few white hairs on one heel. Including
the above immediate crosses from the GodoI-
phin CITIZEN has twenty Arabian crosses, and
neatly as many Barb crosses, as traced from the
stud book; so 1t may be Justly said he is as near
being an Arabian as a horse can be, who was
mol brought from that place, and of this his
looks viii fully convince the world when ,bev
see NM Citizen was most excellent racer,
having won nineteen races, fourteen of them
tour miles, and six of them were won ar three
heats, beating the best horses in England /: his
colts are now running in great credit in England.
proving themselves OF equal bottom 10 any hor-
ses IN that country, winning many four mile
races, at three and four heats. He is sire of
Nautilus, Pacolst. Citizen, Dapple, &c &c.
ms colts m this country, are large, fine and pro-
missing, and no doubt will turn out well when
proven. Inc hrst OF his getting will be two
years old this spring. Citizen was purchased by
Mr. Barksdae formerly of Petersburg, aud sent
10 general Carney Of North Carolina, where he
stood three scasons, and covered upwards of 100
mares each season, although he stood at the sar,e
stable. MIR William Barksdae's letter, and O.
ther papers relative TO him. speaks too highly of
