We desire such of our subscribers as may at •ny time wish the direction of their papers chan ged from one Post Office to another, to inform its, in all cases, of the place to which they had been previously sent; as the mere order to for watd them to a different office, places it almost outof our power,to comply,because we have no moans of ascertaining the office from which they ate ordered to be changed, but a search through our whole subscription Book, containing severe thousand names. POSTAGE. It is a standing rule with this office, as wel as all others, that the postage of all letters and communications to tne Editor or Proprietor must bo paid. We repeat it again,—and re quest all persons having occasion to address us upon business connected in any way with the establishment, to bear it in mind.

Good ami extdrfsivc j pasturage will be provided for mures from a dis- ! tancc, and they will be fed with grain if directed. AU possible care will be taken to prevent aeei cuts, but no liability for auy that may happen. r l he proprietors congratulate themselves with having it in their power to present this unrivalled .'Stallion to the public at this interest ing and favorable period in ihe history ofthe blood horse of the south—a period of which the gay and sprightly offspring of Mark Galla tin, Potomac, Whip, and 'Andrew, are eliciting the admiration of a large portion of the commu nity, and commanding the attention of the sporting world. To the progeny of all these, we can with confidence recommend ARAB as a most valuable cross, in siqiport of which, we have these very powerful reasons: his purity of i bloou, his tiemendeous size, his exquisite and incomparable beauty, allot which he combines in a higher degree than any other horse noW on the continent. We mean no disparagement to others ; but in order to show the high csti i rnation in which ARAB’S STOCK is held, we will record a few facts which we think will establish, beyond the least possibility of doubt, their superiority. Bet Bounce, the Dam of Arab, sold for $2- I 900, after she was 19 years old ; Coquette lor j $10(10, after she had broke down ; and for a brood mare, Bersheba would have commanded any price her owner would have csked, but she died when going into her second training. She was thought by her trainers to be the best marc the world ever produced. For Janette, $2,5’;0 were refused, Tariff it,is believed sold fors3ooo, ; for Eliza Kirby, 2,500 has Been re used ; $2,250 was refused for Gen. Brooke the last son of Bet Bounce, and Arab himself sold for $500(), and cannot be bought at this time not less than double that sum. These plain, simple, and unvarnished facts; which i need no comment, are metioned for no other , purpose than to shew the great value of Arab’s ; Stock. In confirmation of what lias been j said, wo will give an extract from a certificate I j of Col. \\ m. R. Johnson whose opinions in \ ir- ‘ ginia, and every where else, are acknowledged [ to be unquestionable : “Bet Bounce and her stock are among our j first favorites and 1 give the following facts for ' thinking so : I sold the one half of Bet Ecu nee ' at 19 years old, to Dr. Mingo, for one thou j sand dollars; she was the dam of Arab, whoso; standing and character is admitted. Os Lady Ham'ihon, by Sir Arthur (the dam of Arab) j her first colt, that was sold for 1,500 dollars of I Coquette, ,by Sir Archie,that 1 sold for l;0U0 i after breaking down. She was the dahi of' Jeannette, by .Archie; that I gave fifteen him— | dred dollars for, and refused 2,5'. 0; also Bv rcm’ by Y’irginian,, which at two years old, sold | j for $1,500; of Siivertail, (a filly) by Archi | that commanded at one year old $,l()v0 ; of a two year old Archie Filly that would bring $1000: and of a socking fitly it her side; bv I Medley, for which S6OO has been offered. Bet Bounce was also the dam of Bersheba by Archie that died at three years old, and was the favorite of the family. She never appeared in public but once, when sltfi contended with the sun of old Bet, that 1 gave SIOOO for at 11 months old. Sally Melki.le; by Virginian, her dangbrer, I sold forsl,6oo before slto wds a year old. Bet Bounce is also the dam of a two year old .Archie filly of such promise its to induce Mr. Mingo, hur owner to enter into a sweepstake at New-York; to be run for j next spring, there are 17 subscribers at 500 I dollars each: and of a yearling colt by Archie, that told me lie had offered sst’o when he was three weeks old. Her stock are generally large ■ handsome and admired; and almost the whole of them alluded to by me, would command very high prices at this time, some ofthmn three or four times their cost. These sales litive cer tainly taken place. 1 have preferred stating, to giving or procuring certificates. (Signed; WILLIAM R. JOHNSON. Making the sum of near $20,0(10 that old Bet and ten of her family actually sold for, and some of them not three weeks old, and many of them not three years old. Stronger or more substantial facts could not be urged in proof ol the exalted station occupied by Arab and his stock in A'irginia, and not a doubt can now be entertained that his colts stand in the very first rank of distinguished racers at the present dav, to prove which we refer the public to the Amer ican Turf Register; where it wiil be seen that he has produced as many winners as almost ti ny other horse now living; Our limits will not permit us to go into lengthy details, but wilfgive below the performance of a sufficient number of his colts to establish the fact, that he is the sire of lace horsos of the very first order, for which purpose it is only necessary to mention a few of his first colts; that were three years old in 1830. They made their ttpjiearance on the Turf in in North Carolina, Virginia and ;N. Yolk oftltis year, and won for themselves laurels which will never fade. One at Tree Hill, beating an Ar chie ; one at Long island beating an Eclipse with others. The same colt (Parkes) was then matched and run for $(i00, against Max well’s Fillv, by Eclipse a single' two miles, which he ran wttl. groat case. He run at New' Holland with 100 pounds, against all «ges, win ning <lt two beats easily. At Lancaster he won I a match a single mile. He lost once out of live races, and then was beaten by the ceiebra -1 ted mile horse Fox, by Eclipse. All were as- ( tonislied to see Fox run so closely by a three year old, with a catch upon each, 2d heat won by six inches. Ono at Lawrenceville, betiting a Sir Charles ; one at Salisbury, beating a Di on, at 4 heats ; one at New Market, heating ' > four others at two heats, one minute littv-three : sec ends each heat; and one al Norfolk, beating I i an Archie at three heats first heat won by Stan- : : dard, 1 minute 49 seconds—second heat won j I by the. Arab I'illy, one minute.s3 seconds, and I < the third heat by the I'illy, in 1 minute 55 sec- ■ I onds. Since which his colts have been running , t with unparalled success in various parts ofthe i United States, and particularly in Virginia, as ' ? will be seen by the following extract of a letter j 1 from Mr. Thomas Goode Tucker, a gentleman 1 1 of high standing and of Brunswick/ county, Virginia.

(Signed) JAMES J. IIARRSION. 1 he same gentleman, after stating in tho most glowing terms, his opinion of Bet Bounce aud her stock,for he trained (heni all,] speaks of A rab and Bersheba, as the very best racers pl the day, aud gives Arab’s perfohiianccs as..fol lows : “ At three years old, he beat Defiance,' a full brother to \V ashington, (by Timoleon) two tiiifii heats, at three heats. This race was won bv f hrtilla, owing to circumstances. Twi n:v days afterwards, he beat Fiirtilla, at Halifax, I N. C. two mile heats for the great stake—three days afterwards, he was entered against the cel , ebrated Sir Henry, and the heroi’he Jai’ctte, 3 mile heats. Here Arab’s supcridrity was ch'ai > ly evinced, for be beat them both at three heat::, throwing away the first, and winning the first , and second and third heats. After that, he met Defiance, and settled a lour mile contest at one heat. And in like manner fulfilled an engage ment with a full sister to Carolinian, at one ■of four miles. He then run a tnal of two miles j out with the celebrated Henry, beating him from 60 to 70 yards, and making the run, with training shoes on, says one of tire timers, in three minutes and forty-eight Seconds’; per haps the greatest gallop of two tniles since the days of Childress. After that; be was entered 1 in a four mile contest with that truly formida ble race mare Janette, that won 14 put, of 16 races.'and died young; She was nearly allied to ARAB, coming out of his full sister, and hegottbii by his father. Alter running three miles or more; Arab was going ahead as bard as the boy could pul) him from 60 to 80 yards, and : suddenly, for the first time inltis life, he stop)>- jed till she had passed him 150 yards. He then started again, and in tire three quarters of j a mile overhauld her and stopped again, and i lost the heat, and fitially th?race, as bepositive- I ly refused starting the second heat aud never | wonldriin kindlv afterwards.” 1 His ovimer thinks, in making out bis certifi : cate, that by some oversight, Capt; Harrison ■ omitted to iiicnlioti one of Arab’s t ; that Mr. James Summerv isle, of gentleman of undoubted veracity jdMHracteri assured him that in some four wiilil Johnßichards, Arab liad crtainl.^^HKdhim; I I Enough, however has been his I superiority as a racer. In fact his racing pow l ers have never beeri Ipieslioned nor indeed can they be. As regards blood he ■ cannot be sur ; passed t nothing could be more pure at his foun ! laip, and not one drop ofimpui ity in any of tho | tributary streams. As regards his size and beauty, we honesty believe bis equal cannot be found in any living horse. We therefore in vite the public to come and see; and judge for themselves ; for an attempt at a correct descrip tion of this unequalled hoise vvdiild be less than useless. He combines and all the strength and boldnes ofthe lion vv'ith the beauty and activity ol the roebuck, and is utiquestionably ,the best qualified horse on earth to jiroduce lioises of all uses ; and as it is biitjtist that we should render a valttanble consideration in return for what vve receive we offer .Arab’s services to the public jon morereasonable terms than those of any Biller horse on the fcontiiient, of bis grade i A short list of winning colts is subjoined to i gratify those of dur friendswho have iiot an op j porinnity of referring at all times to the Twf ; Regis.tel ; atid in almost every instance whero | biscolts were not winners, they tvtre die cou- I tending nagsl November 1832.-—At Norfolk, for Silver cup and urn, mile heats, best tin ee in file ; won by Arabia Felix; by Arab at four heats, beating an Eclipse aud three others. .'
