TO STAND THIS SEASON The Fashionably -bred Stallion. PIME iLBEET. PRINCE ALBERT is a dapple bay horse, six years old, stands 17 hands high, with immense bone and hair ; good feet and splendid action. His sire. Prince of Wales, imported from Victoria, is by the unprecedented horsp. Cox. Prince of Wales, acknowledged to be the "grainiest horse ever brought out to tlie 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 Ci. R. Kernside.-Esq., Tasmania, and was shown at all the principal shows in Tasmania, but was never beaten. Diamond's dam, Mossom 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-year-old took first prize against twelve others in her own class, and the same day took first prize against eight three-year-olds. Was shown for ten years at all the principal shows in Tasmania, and never suffered defeat, and was then sold for two hundred guineas to go to Queensland. The above is the origin of Prince Albert, and his pedigree will show that there is no better blood in the colony. He has the Shire blood brought in by Lincolnshire Hero, which is so much run on in the Home Country at the present time. The four horses drawn first at the Glasgow Show in 1884 had all more or less Shire blood in them, this showing that such sires were proving themselves in getting stock of the right class, suitable for the Home market, and the demand for exportation.
