This mare was im ported by Mr Robert Wilkin, but before leaving America, Hiram Woodruff, a great authority on trotting, drove Jenny Tracey a mile in 2min 18^secs. He also used to drive Berlin's full brother, Mambrino Dudley; and Mr Woodruff says in his book on trotting—" If ever there was a horse which could trot a mile in 2 minutes Mambrino Dudley could before seeing so much stud duty. So it is plain that Ken tncky and General Tracey contain the very besb strains of American trotting blood. Mares grazed free. Every care taken bu r# responsibility.

Young Cheviot won all his races very easily, and each time he started he met good fields, so that his record on the turf stamps him as a good performer.

Jessie Brown, imported, by Old Times, dam by Lochfergu Champion, AWAMOA is thereforo a horse of great lineage; in fact he is one of the best bred horses in the world On one side he is sprung from Prince of Wales, and on the other from Lochfergus ; and anyone wko pretends to knowledge in these matters understands that tr^se two sire 3 were the most successful stud horses that the world has ever known. Awamoa has been a most successful breeder. The colt Regent was never beaten in the ring, and lowered the colors cf the famous British Lion when only two years old, and was sold at 350 guineas The filly Nonpareil 11. has never been beaten wherever shown. It would occupy too much space to enumerate apd comment on all prizetakers that have sprung from Awamoa_ Besides being a great breeder, Awamoa had a good career in the show ring.

All other crude oils are to be classed among the turpentines, which have, when used as modicine, no therapeutic effect and are abandoned as an internal medicament. Those so called Eucalypti Extracts, which may have received dist nction at Exhibitions as commercial articles and are used for mechanical pur noses only are discernible :— . 1 By their deficiency in pungent odour (which our product, the enly genuine Eucalypti Extrac, de velops most freely through its surplus of oxytei ). 2 By their alcoholic thin and mobile appearance, ' baing reduced in specific density through the presence of aoidK ..., .
