Dam—Marchioness, by Lord Clyde (imported) ; Sire Moffat'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 tractJ-le. Bis dam is by Lord Clyde, imported from Scotland, and a glance at his career will be conclusive proof that no hotter 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; Kmperor by !Sir Walter Scott. Lord Clyde took the following prizes as a yearling : First at Bishopriggs, Kirkintulloclc, East Kilbride, and Johnstone (IS6C) ; a3 a 2-ye.;r-old—First at Barhead, Johnstone, Renfrew, and second at Glasgow Highland Society (1867) ; 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 and second prize colts and first and second prize fillies at Sandhurst, first and second prize colts and first and third prize fiiiies at Kyueton, and fi.-st prize -jolb and filly at the Grand National, Melbourne, an<s the colt was sold on the ground fo;- 100 guineas. Dainty i.'avii/s sire—Moffat's Conqueror (imported from Scotland) —had also a distinguished career, both at Home and in the i!o;.ios. When two years old he gained p/izss at Glasgow. Stirling, Kirkintulloch, and Dumbartn ; when three years old from among CO horses ho was selected for a £4O premium. The following year he was purchased by Mr. Moffat, Victoria, and re:aiued at h : s stud till purchased by Mr. Turner, of Marsh—the most noted breeder in Victoria. Conqueror's sire was Lochfergus Champion. It can be safely asserted that Loclifergus Champion left more prize slallioi'B and mares than any other Clydesdale in Scotland. From all this, then, we gather that Dainty Davie combines the best strains of Wood in the world, and he is bound to get stock worthy of his great progenitors. TERMS ... FIVE GUINEAS, Pavable Feb.
