Cardozo Arabian, for Sale. 



THIS entire Horse was imported into Bo.*ton,June 

 I5lh. 1832, by Messrs R. D. Tucker & Son, in the brip 

 Caroline from Gibraltar, and is of the purest Arabian cast 

 as will appear by the subjoined certificate. This horse 

 is of the largest class of Arabians ; of dapple b.iy color; 

 black lees, main, and tail ; and measures fourteen hands 

 three inches iu height; uncommonly large bone ; mus- 

 cles and tendons stronjily delineated ; of irrepressible 

 spirits, and perfectly docile. His points, when abstract- 

 edly examined, are in most respects without fault, and 

 collectively they form an animal surpassed by few for 

 symmetry — leaving no doubts on the minds of judtres, 

 that he is a true sou of the desert without any collateial 

 admixture. 



A more particular description of this horse is not deem- 

 ed necessary at this time, as it is presumed no gentleman 

 will purchase so valuable an animal without minutely

Gibraltar, May 4, 1832. 



Extract of a letter from Horatio Sprague, Esq. of Gibraltar. 



" This horse was a present to Aaron Cardozo. Esq. 

 Consul General for the Earbary Powers, a talented and 

 wealthy gentleman, who prefers living with the nobility 

 in Portugal to residing in this place. The then governor 

 of Gibraltar, General Sir George Don, made a proposal 

 to purchase this horse to send to England. 



'• As soon as the nephew of Sen. Cardozo, who is a 

 particular friend of mine, residing here, had orders to sell 

 I tlie horse, he immediately made me the offer of purchas- 

 ing him ; and the Caroline with Capt. Gale's kindness, 

 offering a good opportunity, I purchased him, believing 

 j his worth to be £500 sterling, to any man, and event- 

 ually of essential service to my native country." 



Application to be made to SAMUEL JAQUES, at the 

 Ten Hills Stoci; Faim, Charlestown, Mass. where the 

 horse may be examined. Aug. 15.
