Dam—Marchioness, by Lord Clyde (imported) ; Sire Mottat's Conqueror (imported). DAINTY DAVIE is a rich dapple bay with bla;k points, and stands 16 hands 3 inches. In quality and quantity of bone and hair few equal him, and for strength and symmetry he has few rivals He is perfectly quiet, docile, and tractable. His dam is by Lord Clyde, imcorted from Scotland, and a glance at his career will be conclusive proof that no better was ever bred in Scotland. LORD CLYDE was bred by D. M'Farlane, Esq., Torr, Helensburgh,"by Emperor, out of Jess, by Clydesdale Tam, out of Tibbie; Emperor by !Sir Walter Scott. Lord Clyde took the following prizes as a yearling : First at Bishopriggs, Kirkintnllock, East Kilbride, and Johnstone (1566) ; as a 2-ye.ir-old—First at Barhead, Johnstone, Renfrew, and second at Glasgow Highland Society (1567) ; as a 3-year-old— First at the Highland Society Show, held at Aberdeen, IS6B. He was afterwards bought by the late David Nesbitt, and taken to Victoria, where his stock have taken prizes as follows:—First 2nd second prize colts and first and second prize fillies at Sandhurst, first and second prize colts and first ar.d third prizs fillies at Kyneton, and first mi:'.e colt and filly at the Grand National, Melbourne, and the colt was sold on tbe ground for 100 guineas. Dainty Davie's Bire—Moffat's Conqueror (imported from Scotland) —had also a distinguished career, both at Home and in the Colonics. When two years old lie gained prizes at Glasgow, Stirling, Kirkintulloch, and Dumbarton ; when three years old from among f;0 horses he was selected for a £4O premium. The following year he was purchased by Mr. Moffat, Victoria, and retained at his stud till purchased by Mr. Turner, of .Bacchus Marsh —the most noted breeder in Victoria. Conqueror's sire was Lochfergus Champion. It can be safely asserted that Lochfergus Champion left more prize stallions and mares than any other Clydesdale hor;e in Scotland. From all this, then, we gather that Daiuty Divie combines the best strains of blood in the world, and he is bound to get stock worthy of his great progenitors. TERMS ... FIVE GUINEAS, Payable Feb.
