The curious and inquisitive Turf Breeder will experience much gratification, 

 and receive information on which he may depend, touching" the interesting subject 

 of the Arabian horse, from Count Rzewusky's memoir, published in the Sporting 

 Magazine, for February 1820. The various and contradictory accounts of Eastern 

 Travellers on this subject, of which few of them knew any thing to the purpose, 

 has been a common, immemorial, and lamentable theme. The Polish Count how- 

 ever, although he may not be deeply informed on that particular branch of equine 

 science, English Horse-Racing, is one of the most experienced men in Europe, on 

 the general subject of the Horse, and one of the greatest breeders upon the Conti- 

 nent, having several very extensive studs, and one even in Arabia itself, on the 

 border of the Desert. He is at present collecting the best specimens of the 

 Horse, to be found in those regions, and through him probably, may be removed 

 the old difficulty of procuring the highest bred horses of that celebrated Country. 



On the affair of breeding Horses for the Road and for common purposes, we are 

 tempted to say a few words. People affect to wonder why so many wretched 

 animals are bred, to burden the earth and to waste good provender ; and at the 

 difficulty of procuring a good horse, at any price. But do not we jolly Englishmen 

 drink execrable wine with a gusto, and swear it is the best in the world, and prefer 

 not only adulterated bread and beer, but every thing else in a state of adulteration,
