and inferior to no horse either for speed or
bottom, of fine bone and muscle. This
horse was purchased by me when in Lon
don of Lord Grosvenor, he was then in
training will stand the ensuing season at
Sandy Point, Charles City country. The
scarcity OF money induces the subscriber
to let him cover mares this season at 10
dollars the single leap, 90 dollars the sea-
son, thirty dollars to insure mare in
foal, the insurance money to be pad, by
the gentle man who insured if changed the
season money may be discharged by the
pament of fifteen dollars by the tenth OF
August, at which time the season will ex-
pire, with half dollar TO the groom for
each mare. Large and extensive pastur-
age of the best white clover gratis the
gratest care and attention paid the mares,
but will not be answerable for accidents
or escapes. This horse has not run many
races, but his. performance will sufficiently
justify the opinion of Lord Grovennor s.
his Son, who certify that they consider him
the best three year old bore in England,
and challenging any year old, which was
not accepted.

goods was made in this town, ON suspicion
OF their having been brought in with ant the

vigilance OF onr revenue oificers has at last
led to the detection of one of the host Of smop-
glers, who, in defiance of every moral oh.
Iigation, are de!rauding the governments
II is hoped that all good men will unite in
their endeavors to put an end TO the scene
ot inqmity, which in face of ciay has been
CARRIED on among us. Shall we permit fraud
& viilainy to triumph, & to riot on their i'll
gotten gains, to the lnss and discourage
ment OF all honest importers or shall wa
not rather openly join in an association to
prevent the repetition of such nefarious
deeds Much NAV be done liz the ,yav of
prevention, IT cur Auctioneers will cordial
~ co operate with the merchants, and re-
fuse to receive any suspicious goods for sale
--on no class of men does the enforcement
OF the Revenue laws so much depend as ON
