TO STAND THIS SEASON . The Fashionablv-brrd Stallion. PEIICE ALBERT. PRINCE ALBERT is a dapple bay horse, six years old, stands .17 hands high, with immense bone and hair ; good fret and splendid action. His siro, Prince of Wales, imported from Victoria, is by the unprecedented horse, Cox. Prince of Wales, acknowledged to be the grandest horse ever brought out to the colonies, has never been beaten on any show ground in the world. Prince Albert's dam, Diamond, was got by that, famous horse Lincolnshire Hero, imported by the late Or. K. Kernside. Esq., Tasmania, and was shown at all the principal shows in Tasmania, but was never beaten. Diamond's dam, Blossom by Matchless, imported to Tasmania by J. L. Fisher, Esq., is by Rosses Lincoln. Blossom commenced her career as a yearling, taking first prize at the Great Northern Show, and first at Westbury same year, and as a two-yfar-old took fitat prize against twelve others in her own clasF, and the same day took first prize against eight three-year-olds. Was shown for ten years at all the prin cipal shows in Tasmania, and neve; suffered defeat, and was then sold foi two hundred guineas to go to Queens land. The above is the origin of Princ Albert, and his pedigree will show tha: there is no better blood in the colony He has the Shire blood brought in b\ Lincolnshire Hero, which is so much rui; on in the Home Country at the present time. The four horses drawn first at the Glasgow Show in 1884 had all more oi less Shire blood in them, this showing that such sires were proving themselvei in getting stock of the right clas: suitable for the Home market, and th demand for exportation.
