PEDIGREE.
.fed'eys sire was Sir Hail. the best son of the i'm
ported horse Sir Harry, by Sir Peter Teazle; Halls
dam by the imported horse Saltram, by Eclipse; his
grand dam by the imported horse Medley, by Jim
Crack; his great grand dam by young Aristotle bv
the imported Aristotle.
.Medieys dam was old Reality, by Sir Arci1y, una
his favorite daughter she the best racer in her
day, and IS now think the best breeder; his grand
dam was Marmaduke. Johnson's old Medley mare,
who was more productive to her owner as a brood
mare, and produced runners and more winners
than any other mare in America, was by the old I'M
ported Centinel out of Polly Williams the greatest
racer In her time; she by the cd imported Janus and
her great grand dam by the imported horse spanker.
1t viii thus be seen from his Pedigree that he las
more Medley blood, than any stallion now known
which IN my opinion is the best blood.
PERFORMANCES.
The Spring he was years old, he ran q match race
in New York. over the Union Course for three Mo;.-
sand dollars, against Mr.. Verplancks Splendid out
of Arel's Dam, which race lie won with very crr,Bk
ease at two heats.
The next week he ran for sweepstakes over the
same course on Long Island, to which there were sf-
c1IfN- hnrc zach htrL
heats in quick time beating Bob Roy, Splendid &c.
Both of these horses, that he so easily beat have
since been winners on the Northern courses.
The fall after he was trained, and run in bad
health, and Of in bad order and was beat bv
Red Murdoch and Arel-tbo' in his then condition
nc rerforned well.-Same fall he ran for sweep,
stakes over the Belfeld course, mile heats sub.
scrlbers, $500 each, which race he won with great
ease, beating Col. Wynn's horse Merlin and Dir.
Garrison's Ivanhoe, &c.
Spring he was four years DID, he voB the JockY
Club purse over the Laureneeville course, four mile
heats, $500, without a contest.
Next week he won the purse at New Market
three mile heats, in fine time and style, beating the
truly toTnidable race mare Ariel, without difficulty
at two heats and running the second heat in 5D 49s
This was the last he ever started for HAVING ss-
Timed an injury in his shoulder-which always re-.
turned on him when put in exercise. This will ac-
count for his having been taken from the turf SO
sOon.-I have better evidence howeverof1is running
powers than his public races, he was trained and
several times had private trials with Snow Storm,
Sally Walker and Trumpator, that were certainty
good runners, and can say with truth that neither
of them ever locked him after running half mile
This ! should not have mentioned had not Arthur
Taylor and Mr.. Badger both seen these trials and
know the correctness of this statement
