HORSES For SALE /!

One Clyde Stallion, seven Years old, bright
bay, weighs sixteen hundred pounds. This
horse can show the best lot of colts in this
section of the state. ''Midnight'' is three
French, and as his name indicates, black as
midnight; is seven years old, and weighs
about eighteen hundred pounds. His sire is
imported Vidocq, No. 4S3, and grandsire, Old
Success, both owned by NJ. w. Dunbar, of
Illinois. This is powerful and very stylish
horse, and I believe him to be fine cross
with the mares of this country.
I have some heavy young mares twelve
hundred to fourteen hundred pounds, from
three to six years oldD in foal to these stall
lions, which I wish to sell. Also two three
quarter blood Holstein bulls. Those wishing
