It is a fact well knovin to a number of gentlemen in this state, how de- sirous the late Col. John Hoomes, of the Bow- ling Green, Virginia, was to obtain this horse, and never could eiTect it until aster the death o the late duke of Bedford, who owned him in England. DRAGONis a sure foal getter, and all in- formation concur in proving the colts dropped from Jiim to be more promising than any ever seen in America. No imported horse before him has maintained his standing for the same length of time in one stable. A number of his coltsmay be seen at the stand duringthe season. JOHN W. HUNT. Lexington, March 30th, 1810. DRAGON was unquestionably the best run- ner of his day he won and received foi feit tvv o and twenty times before he ended his fifth year, and in most cases for the highest piizes in Cng land ; among this number was the Whip, ( which is known to be the highst object of competition ever established by the English Jockey Club,) and 200 guineas each, against two others, both up a car's weight in riding, sour miles; and the famons match against Clifden sour miles, carrying fifteen stones (225 lbs ) upon each, in which he was rode by the Duke of Bedford, and Clifden by Sir John Laide. Although Dragon was permitted to go to a sew mares aster lie was withdrawn from the turf, yet the Duke of Bedford, who owned him, never relinquished him as a parade horse and the number of his get which were dropped before the end of the vearl799, only amounts to thirty three one of these died young, one was sent to America, and several were never trained ; eleven winners appear however, in England, from such as have been trained of this little stock, besides that one mentioned o hive b"en stnt to.Amjr.ica, which, .jn the hatids of' Mr Tay Het pioie'Tagciod qipner. and has on several times in Virginia.

Extract of from gentleman

at Cadiz, dated Jan. 26.

' The General Junta have decreed, that iromtheir residence shall at

On the l4th'of'jan.Hhe French attacked

the passoge of .Mbntisson and Villamanique to

enter into Andalusia, but they were repulseu ;

in consequence of which, the Patriot Army is

in good spirits. .... .,' The general opinion is, as soon as tue

Central Junta quit Seville, the Provincial Jun-

ta of that district will take the whole com-

mand of the province, and some change will

take place in, government. The Central, it is

said, give the other full power to act as they

may see best- -

The Junta of Granada and Cordova have

given orders to arm the whole population oi

the province in a mass.'The Trench army "is composed ot about

50,000 (6,000 of wh'ch are cavalry-- ) Our ar-

my will be about 36,000.'

SaUm, March 20.

Yesterday the schooner Minerva, captain

Leach, arrived at iltrblebcad, in 6o day-- .

from Alicant A gentleman who conversed

with captain Leach a sew minutes, derived

from him the following insormation: That the

French were within six leagues of Alicant, in

two divisions, (40.000 in the whole) one dm-sio- u

destined to Alicant, and were expected in

everyday; the other to Valencia : That the

inhabitants were with all haste sending their

plate and other valuables to Gribraltar and Ca-

diz, judging them to be the only places ot re-

fuge and safety ; and were determined to sub-

mit to the French' when they came without re-

sistance. The Junta remainedat Seville.

A London paper of Jan. 20, say- s-' This

ships from France to obtain logwood and otherarticles from this conntry admitted under the

the first day of January next, will be ex-pected with the mares. Any gentleman whoputs his mare by the season, and she does notprove to have been in foal, shall have the pri-vilege of putting" her next season gratis, provi-de- d

she remains his property.No expence has been spared to provide the

best of pasturage, and separate lots have beenfenced, for the accommodation of mares sentto the horse, which will be free of all charges,and they will be grain fed is required upon mo-derate terms. Every attention will be paid tomares, but cannot be accountable for accidentsor escapes

DRAGON is a dark chesnut, handsomelymarked vvith a star and snip, and without

is sully sixteen hands high j he isdescended frtim the best running stock in Eng-land, and is a brother, in blood, to the famoushorse Diomed f whose stock is es-

teemed in Virginia. It is a fact well knovin toa number of gentlemen in this state, how de-

sirous the late Col. John Hoomes, of the Bow-ling Green, Virginia, was to obtain this horse,and never could eiTect it until aster the death othe late duke of Bedford, who owned him inEngland.

DRAGONis a sure foal getter, and all in-

formation concur in proving the colts droppedfrom Jiim to be more promising than any everseen in America. No imported horse beforehim has maintained his standing for the samelength of time in one stable. A number of hiscoltsmay be seen at the stand duringthe season.

JOHN W. HUNT.Lexington, March 30th, 1810.DRAGON was unquestionably the best run-

ner of his day he won and received foi feit tvv oand twenty times before he ended his fifth year,and in most cases for the highest piizes in Cngland ; among this number was the Whip, ( whichis known to be the highst object of competitionever established by the English Jockey Club,)and 200 guineas each, against two others,

both up a car's weight in riding,sour miles; and the famons match againstClifden sour miles, carrying fifteen stones (225lbs ) upon each, in which he was rode by theDuke of Bedford, and Clifden by Sir JohnLaide.

Although Dragon was permitted to go to asew mares aster lie was withdrawn from theturf, yet the Duke of Bedford, who ownedhim, never relinquished him as a parade horseand the number of his get which were droppedbefore the end of the vearl799, only amountsto thirty three one of these died young, onewas sent to America, and several were nevertrained ; eleven winners appear however, inEngland, from such as have been trained ofthis little stock, besides that one mentioned o
