PEDIGREE.
Iuediey's sire was Sir Hull the best son o. the inn
ported horse Sir Hurry, by Sir Peter Teazle; Halls
dam by the imported horse Saltram, by Eclipse; his
grand dam by the imported horse Medley. by jim
Cfack' his great grand dam by young Aristotle, BY
the imported Aristotle.
.dediey's dam was old Realty, by Sir Archy, and
hs fayor1te daughter; she the best in her
day, and is now think the best breeder; his grand
dam was Marnladuke. Johnsons old Medley mare,
who was more productive to her owner brood
mare, and produced more runners and more winners
than any other mare in America, by the old i'm
ported horse Medley; his great grand dam by the i'm
lulrtcd Ccntinol, out Of Polly Williams, the greatest
Scef III her Tune; she Dy the OLD imported Janus and
her great grand dam by the imported horse Spanker
1t will thus DO from his Pedigree that he has
more Medley blood, than any stallion nov known,
which in my opinion is the best blood.
PERFORMANCES.
4 ne Spring he was years Old lac ran match race
IN New York, over the Union Course for three thou
sand dollars, against MIR Verplancks Splendid, out
OF Ariels dam, which race he won with very great
ease at two heats.
Plre next week he ran for sweepstakes over the
S1u Iela
ven subscribers, $500 each, which he won at two
heats in Quick time, beating Rob Roy Splendid, &C.
10th OF these horsrs that he so easily beat, have
since been winners on the Northern courses
The tau after he was trained, and run in bad
health, and Of course in bad order, and was beat by
Red Murdoch and Arel-tho' in his then condition
he performed well.-Same fall he for n sweep
stakes the Belficld course, mile heats 5 sub
scribers, S200 each, which he won with great
e}se, beating Col. Wynns horse Merlin and Mr..
Garrison's lvanhoc, &c.
Spring he wus four years old, he won the Jocky
Club purse over the Laurence,ie course, four mile
heats, $500, without u contest.
Next week he won the purse at New Market
three mile heats, in fine time and STYLE, beating the
truly Formidable race mare Ariel, without difficulty,
at two heats, and running the second heat in SIN. 49s
This was the last race he ever started for, having
tained ain Injury IN hts shoudcr-whch always re-
tiirIred on him when put in exercise. This will ac-
count for his having been taken from the turf so
soon.-I Have better evidence however oihs running
powers tfdn his public races, as he was trained and
several times had private trials with Snow Storm
Sally Walker and Trumpator, that were certainly
Sood runners, and can say with truth that neither
az them ever locked him after running halta mile
This should not have mentioned had not Arthur
Taylor and Mr.. Badger buth these trials and
knoH the correctness of this statement
