She was got by Tarquin(by Henry out of Ostrich by Eclipse, and she out of Garland, the dam of PostBoy,) out of Imp. Sarah by Sarpedon. Sarah was imported into Charleston byMr. Fryer, in Oct. 1838, and came out in the ship Ganges, in company withDelphine (the dam of Monarch, The Queen, Herald, etc.) and other slock ofCol. Hamptons, of which we published a list at the time, that was sent us byFryer from Liverpool.

The Editor of the London Sporting Review, in introducingthe portrait of Camel to his readers, remarks that he knows ofno greater treat for a man fond of the thorough-bred horse thana visit to perhaps the most complete breeding establishment of theday, viz., that of Mr. Theobald, at Stockwell, Surrey ; more par-ticularly if the time chosen be the spring of the year, when, inaddition to the fine collection of stud-horses, some of the pickedmares of the kingdom may be seen, which annually form the se-raglio of one or the other of these high-bred chiefs. Anotherfeature well wonhy of attention is the stabling and loose boxes,which we are informed cost jeiO,000 in building, and are allowedto be very near perfection. It may be, and indeed we have veryfrequently heard it remarked, that Mr. Theobald might make moremoney of his horses
