STALLIONS TO STAND THIS SEASON IN THE OAMARU DISTRICT, AND AT MR. PATF.R SOX'S PIiIVATE BESIDKNOK, OAMARU, The Fashionably-bred and very Superior Thoroughbred Horse P E R T 0 B E, Bred by H. Phillijjs, Esq., Victoria, in 1869. By Panic (imported) out of Hester Grazebrook, by the Premier (imported), out of Miss Napier, by Delapre (imported), out of Mrs. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported); Panic, by Alarm, out of Queen of Beauty, by Melbourne out of Birthday, by I 'antaloon out of Uonoriit, by Camel, &c., &c. Pertobk is a dark bay liorse, 7 years old, standing 15 hands 3 inches high, with great length, substance, and quality, and was one of the fastest horses that ever raced in Vie toria. The fact that he has got Pantaloon blood in his veins is a great recommendation, for it is questionable if Letter flows in any animal's; the very best runners and the grandest specimens of the thoroughbred are descended I'rom Pantaloon, whose blood cannot be excelled. The value of Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alone as to speed and staying, but also as a running strain, for although some others occasionally produce one or two animals, still, few can compete with that in question as to number. For high breeding, good true racing action, honesty and gameness, with speed of remarkable brilliancy, Pektobk has no equal, and Thoroughbred Mares put to him should breed good racehorses.

He may not have produced such brilliant horses as some of our crack sires, but for the production of every description, h.e has no tq»al. Nimblefoot, Strop, Melbourne, Adelaide, and others, have' plaoed many a good flat race to his credit; Prodigious, Loue Hand, Saucepan, Quicksilver, and many others, have shown us what his descendants are capable of over a country ; and for general purposes they are unsurpassed, as they inherit all their sire's soundness of wind and lima. Mr. Tait has often told me that the best constitutioned horse h.e ever o.wned was Melbourne ; and thi3 being one of the chief characterises of Panic's stock, he is well worthy of liberal patronage from breeders."
