Reform, by imp. Leamiugton, son of Faugh-a-Ballagh, bred by Mr. R. W. Cam- 

 eron, Clifton Stud, N. Y., foaled 1871, dam imp. Stolen Kisses, by the Knight of 

 Kars, son of Nutwith, out of Defamation, by lago. /Defamation, his grandam, was 

 the dam of Saccharometer, winner of the Newmarket two year-old Plate, the July

 As a two-year-old, started in six races. At Jerome Park, was second in the Nursery 

 Stakes for two-year olds, one mile, won by Rutherford in 1 :47f , Atilla, Saxon, and 

 others behind him, and was unplaced in all his other races. As a thi-ee-year-old, started 

 in nine races, of which he won two. Monmouth Park, won the Sequel Stakes for 

 three-year-olds, 3 miles, in 3 :374, beating Dublin, Vandalite, and five others . Saratoga, 

 won a dash of If miles, 83 lbs., in 3:05f, beating Dublin, London, and one other. 

 This was the fastest race to that date at the distance. At Jerome Park, was third to 

 Dublin and Vandalite, in the Withers Stakes, one mile, in 1 :50, track muddy, Griinstead, 

 Maccaroon, and nine others behind him. Saratoga was third to Vandalite and Grrin- 

 stead in the Sequel Stakes, 2 miles, in 3 :40f , Madge and three others behind him. Was

 hind him. At four years old, was second to Ballinkeel, in Westchester Cup, 3} miles,

 Woodburn Stakes, 31 miles, in 4:36J, beating Grinstead and Rutherford. At six years 

 old, was second to Frederick the Great, in a race of mile heats, the first heat in 1 :47, was

 1^ miles, won by Hattie F, in 3 :01i. Aged, won a race of three-quarters of a mile heats, 

 in 1 :34, 1 :34, defeating a field of four, and one of mile heats in 1 :55, 3 :00, beating 

 Gasconade and Odd Fellow, both ran at Ambler Park, Pa. Reform has only a few 

 colts on the turf, and they have run creditably. Little Fred (Yorkshire) won a mile 

 in 1:43 and in 1:44: li miles in 2:13J. Tonawanda, three-quarters of a mile in l:16i, 

 one mile in 1 :43i, five furlongs in 1 :02|. Miss Lumley by Leamington, or Reform by 

 the later, mile in 1:48, and won the Hunter Stake at Jerome Park, If miles, in 3:30, 

 track muddy, beating Amazon and six others. Tuscaloosa, by Leamington, or Reform 

 evidently by the latter, won the Army and Navy Stakes at Washington, 1^ miles, in 

 3:40f, beating Free Gold, La Gloria, and three others, and the Delight filly a winner. 

 Reform is a brown, 15 hands 3i inches high, white face, wide expanding nostrils, large 

 prominent eyes, clean cut, with no superfluous lumber, and possesses much quality, 

 but has the Melbourn ear, having a double Pantaloon cross, with the Glencoe Whale- 

 bone, and traces through a long line of Herod blood to the dam of the Two True Blues. 

 He will be a success.
