She continued on the turf until past twenty years old, and after com* 

 pleting that age she closed her public career with the year 1877 by 

 trotting during that year forty-one heats in 2 :30 or better, and making a 

 time record of 2:14 1-2. Her record stands at the close of her career at 

 2 :14, with 332 heats in 2 :30 or better. Her record and her career are 

 " the marvel of the age." Goldsmith Maid finally found a home at the Fashion 

 stud farm, at Trenton, N. J., there to end her days. 



DEXTER. 



Dexter has been so often described, that the public are familiar with 

 his appearance. A dark bay or brown gelding, with a white stripe the 

 full length and width of his face, and four white legs ; 15 hands, 1 inch 

 high ; his head as finely cut in its outline as that of Australian or Bonnie 

 Scotland ; an eye that does not stand out with the prominence of the 

 Abdallah eye in Hambletonian, but one that sparkles with a glance of 

 fire that speaks of that which is back of the orb ; his mane and tail are 

 medium in fulness, and in form and blood-like appearance he is hardly 

 surpassed by that of any thoroughbred of full age in the country. His 

 record of 2 :17 1-4 is familiar to all. 



JAY GOULD. 



Jay Gould is a bright bay horse, of fine mould and finish, 15 hands 2 

 inches in height ; rather light-appearing in form, but of great and power- 

 fully formed quarters, and a tolerably fair set of limbs. His head is a 

 finely formed one, and he has a face that indicates the high degree of in- 

 telligence that in so great a measure marks this branch of the family. 

 He has trotted twenty heats in 2 :30 or better, and reached a record of 

 2 :21 1-2, and in addition is credited with one son, King Philip, a young 

 horse only five years old, that has trotted nine heats in 2 :30 or better, 

 and reached a record of 2 : 21.

 by Captain Stone and was formed under his personal supervision. When she 

 wiis a colt she was gentle and affectionate, and a great pet with Captain Stone's 

 daughter. Miss Stone became very much attached to her pet, and the mare 

 B«eraed to be just as much attached to her. Captain Stone, therefore, requested 

 ais daughter to name her equine playfellow, and in compliance she gave it her
