Brodie, Deep Creek, and got by the famous imported horse Old Emperor. Blackleg, the sire of Native Industry, was one of the most celebrated Clydesdale stallions iu the world. He won upwards of fifty first prizes, including, among others, first ns a two-year old at the Highland Society’s Show, held in Aberdeen in 1849 (over thirty competitors). At the Glasgow Show in 1858, his breeder was awarded the silver medal for him as the best animal in the Show, whether majre, or entire horse. After coming in 1860 he was first Earn era’ Society’s IwoWm Melbourne ;won the BallaratChallenge CfipTOTCem succession ; the 150 at Geelong in 1866, and the same in Melbourne the following year. In his show career he beat the celebrated horse Prince Charlie (imported by J. and M. MJntosh), and all the best horses brought against him. Cochrane’s Clyde won many prizes, both in Scotland and at Melbourne and Ballarat. Among the farmsrs and carriers of Victoria the stock of all Jthe sires named in the pedigree of Native Industry stand in the very highest repute, as being docile in disposition, and hardy, good workers. Blossom, the dam of Native Industry, was bred by Mr. James Patullo, of Somerton. and was sold by him to Mr. Cameron for a long figure when two-year old. Darling, his granddam was also bred by Mr. Patullo. She obtained first prize as a two-year-old at the Port Phillip Fanners’ Society Show in 1855, and first in 1859 as the best colonial-bred mare at the same Society’s show, besides other prizes. Her dam was selected by Mr. Patullo from the stock of Mr. R. Brodie who at that time had one of the best studs of draught horses in Victoria. NATIVE INDUSTRY was purchased by John Neman, Esq., J.P., of Moonee Ponds, in 1870, being chosen by him in preference to imported and other houses for the use of his select mares, and he parted with him solely because he has ceased to keep an entire horse. NATIVE INDUSTRY was only exhibited on two occasions, viz. : at the Great Horse Exposition, held in Melbourne in 1870, a ,l d at the Victorian Agricultural Society’s Show in March, 1871, where he took first prize. He took second on the former occasion, having been beaten by an imported three-year-old, he being only two. At the Spring Walking Show, held this year on the 9th of August, in Bourke-street, Melbourne, he was the object of general admiration, and was pronounced by good judges to be the best Victorian-bred colt ever shown in Bourke-street.
