STALLIONS nno STAND THIS SEASON B IN THE OAMARU DISTRICT, AND AT MR. PATER SON'S PRIVATE RESIDENCE, OAMAKU, The Fashion ably-bred and very Superior Thoroughbred liorse P E R T 0 B E , Bred by 11. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, in ISG9. 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 Pantaloon out of Honoria, by Camel, &c., &c. Pkrtojik is a dark bay horse, 7 years old, standing 15 hands 3 inches high, with groat length, substance, and quality, and was one of the fastest horses that ever raced in Victoria. The fact- that ho has got Pantaloon blood in his veins is a great recommendation, for it is questionable if better llows in any animal's; the very best runners and the grandest specimens of the thoroughbred are descended from Pantaloon, whoso blood cannot be excelled. The value of Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alone as to speed and staying, bnt also as a running strain, for although some others occasionally produce one or two first-class 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, Pektome has no equal, and Thoroughbred Mares put to Mm 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, he has no equal. Nimblefoot, Strop, Melbourne, Adelaide, and others, have placed many a good fiat race to his credit; Prodigious, Lone Hand, Saucepan, Quicksilver, and many others, have shcrwii us what his descendants are capable of over a country ; .<ind for general purposes they are unsurpassed, as they inherit ail their sire's soundness of wind a«d limb. Mr. Tait has often told ms saai the best eonstitutioned horso uc uvor owned, was Melbourne ; and iiiia being one of the chief characteristic's o.f Panic's stock, he is well worthy of ii&erai Va(-;oii:\go from breeders."
