C. and will lie let to niaresat THIRTY DOLLARS the season,' payable by note the first day of January next, which may be 'dis charged 1)/ TWENTY DOLLARS when the- mare is first put or taken from the stand—FOßTY DOLLARS « to insure a mare to be in foal, (if she is brought to the horse in due time") payable by note, and due as soon as it j is user named that she is in foal, or dis posed of—one .dollar to the groom, paid at the stable door. ' We have pro vided a sufficient quantity of wheat for any number of mares that may be left with the horse, gratis—arid vvdl feed with grain, pointedly as directed at 25 cents per day, to be paid when the maie is taken from the stand. , We have fur nished two servants to attend the mares, and every care shall be taktn to give satisfaction and avoid accidents or es capes, but will not be accountable for either. ROYALIST is a full blooded racer— Tie was bred by his royal highness the prince of Walts, was got by Saltram, son of Eclipse by Minsk, who covered at 200 guineas the season—his dam by Herod, grand dam by Morsk, g. grand dam by Blank, g. g.grsnd dam by Dri ver, g. g. g. grand dam by Smiling Tom, g. g. g. g. grand clam by Oyster foot, g. g. g. g. g. grand dam by Com moner, Sec. ROYALIST is full brother in blood to Whiskey, Oscar, Whip, &c. and it is gi' uup bv the best judges that havi Seta him, that his equal for beauty, great strength, running parts, and ac tion, can scarcely be surpassed in En gland or America. Me stands nearly 1 sixteen hands high, a deep mMiogony ■.bay, and as to his running performan ces, the following will shew that they ■ire ecpial to any horse of his day. PERFORMANCES. In 1793, at 3 years old, the first time Royalist sturteo, lie won 400 guineas at New-Markct, beating iurd Grosvenor’s chesnul filly by Pcloooooooo’s, out of Marine, and the duku of Bedford’s colt by Highflyer, out of Conigonde. He started l'ur the Craven stakes, and beat Dare Devil, Agamemmon, Coriander, Seagul, Golden Rod, Fort William, and six others. The next time lie started, he won a subscription plate fo*’ 50 pounds each, beating Patriot, Cymbe line, Brimstone, Robin Gray and seven others. He- also beat the duke of Bed ford’s colt by Highflyer, and the duke of Norfolk’s grey filly by Dungannon, a sweepstake of 200 guineas each, at four years old. He beat lord Egre mont’s aged hoise Seagul, a match for 200 guineas across the flat at New- Market, in 1795. He be.d Don Quix otte, Galico, the duke of Bedford’s Cub, and Mr. Durand’s filly by Saltram, for the Craven stakes.— He walked over the course at New-Market, for 1200 guineas, and no horse dare start against him. He also beat several others of | tiie most capital horses in England, too ( tedious to enumerate, but may be seen by the Racing Calenders and Sporting Magazines, which upon a recent exam ination it is found, that Royalist is far the best racer that has ever been sold to America, except Whip and Buzzard; from tiials they had with the best hor ses in England, they were ail nearly . equal in speed and bottom, as the re cords describe, beating all the best hou ses of their day, except Whiskey.— This advertisement will disappear in five weeks, as it will give full informa tion in that time. We expect to keep the best import ed horses at the above stand, or near it, for several years. Edward Jordan; * Randolph Bates, David Bates, Wm. Anderson.. P.
