Muckle John, WILL STAND the ensuing season at his stable in Edgecombe county, an i will be let to mares at TWELVE DOLLARS "the single leap, TWENTY Dollars the season, and FORTY Dollars to insure a mare to be in foal with twenty-five cents to the Groom in every in stance A transfer of property forfeits the insurance. The season will commence the 1st day of March, and end the 1st of July. A fair and liberal deduction will be made if any responsible person will make up a club of five mares. Every attention will be paid, but no responsibility for acci dents, Sic. Muckle John, Was got by old Harrod, he by old Sir Archie. Hai rod's dam by old Diomede, his grandam by old Bellair, his g. grandam by the imported Sir Harry. Muckle John's dam by oi l Collector, his grandam by the old imported Citizen, his g. grandam by the imported Union, hisg. g. grandam by the imported Buckskin. It is unnecessary to trace him further, as the above is suffi cient to give him a pedigree not surpassed by any horse in the country. REMARKS. 1( any unprejudiced indi vidua!, or one who is willing to do justice, , will examine particularly the many good crosses both of imported and American stock, with which MUCKLE JOHN is so deeply tinctured, they must arrive to the conclusion that the whole of the tngredt ents are perfectly compatible, and that he is in the whole entirely free or destitute of the least particle of adulteration. Hi3 pedigree alone is sufficient to eive him a character, without the high authorities of respectable sportsmen, or those who are well acquainted with the most genuine racing stock. Lapt. Harrison, of Virgi ma, who is well known throughout the tnion as one who has endeavored to im prove the stock of horses in this country, and who has owned and had in possession those of the greatest reputation, pronoun ces Muckle John to be made up of the best crosses of any horse now in America. The following are his words: "It is with much pleasure that I can say, and which I have tor some time believed, that Bulluck's Muckle John should not stand second to any horse in America, for never was one in possession of more of the genuine stuff, Jiz: Archie, Collector, Citizen, &c. oic" Biack Kite it is true bag been beaten and o has Southerner, they have also on the oiher hand as can be seen by an examina tion into the Turf Register, been successful- As evidence that they are valuable race horses, eight thousand dollars have Wen offered for them and refused. Muckle John has had but three colts carried to the Jurf and all have proven to be good race horses, possing both the essentials of speed nd game. If the people of this country should ever feel disposed to improve their stock of horses, particularly thee of the racing character, they ran never bate the privilege of go doing at a more propitious period than that of accepting the present tavorable opportunity.
