BLUE BULL.

We published last summer some very
English, Stone, etc, former owners of
Blue Bull or his sire. We add now a
number not so important, but also relat-
ing to this by the record greatest of all
trotting sires and about which, Las yet, there
is the least known. The probabilities would
seem to be that on the dams side through
the TruXtons he runs straight back to
Imp. Diomed. Mr.. Wallacei is so afraid of
this that. ostrich-like, he omits the Trux-
ton part in his RegiSter. as if hereafter it
would make the slightest difference what
