will be seer that Doctor John is n of
the hes! and most fashionable bred hor-
ses in the world having descended from
the best race horses in England, on both
sides for many generations back. Glencoe
his sire, is considered by the best Judges
the best stallion in America. His colts
winning at all distances, and some
