WAI AP.KKA, AND KAKANUI DISTRICTS, If sufficient inducement offers, The fashionably - bred and very superior Thorouah-brcd Horse FE it T OB E, .it. Eminently suited for getting Hunters, Handsome Weig'tfc-earrying Hacks, and Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOP.E is a beautiful dapple brown :■"t::liioii, st.-mding 10 hands high, Bred by 11. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, in IS6"\ Got by Panic (imported) ; his dam, Hester Grr.zebrook, by The Premier (imoorted), out of Miss Napier, by DelaprcS (imported) ; Mi.ss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported).— See Victorian SI nil Boo!:, Vol. 11, p. Jjl. Panic 'was imported fr.>m England to Tasmania, and put to the stud at o yrs. old. He 'was trained •■ind rac-.-d at 4-, and again put to the stud. When ho was 0 yrs. t.1.1, he was purchased :it a high price and imported to Victoria, where lie had two more seasons' training and r.-icine. He proved himself the best Knglish horse ever trained in Australia. He van remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weights ; he was both speedy and staying, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firstclass English racehorse Alarm, "he was never sick, sorry, or lame," and retbed from the turf without a blemish. At the stud, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, lie has not been favored by many iirst-class mares, he has got more 'winners out of half-bred ones than any horse in Victoria, and forgcneial purposes his stock ia much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is a •'.ombination of some excellent strains of . ' ?d, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in that famous line through Defence, and which comes to him on the sides of both sire and dam. On his fire Panic's side there is, as wen as his good Defence blood, that of the game ami stout Venison, tha powerful and speed}- Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " The value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alone as to its being speedy and staying, but aLso to its 'training on,'and being essentially a ' running strain ;' for although some others occasionally produce one or two lirst-class animals, few, if any, cau compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand recommendation of this strain of Wood is, that it mixes successfully with, and improves, all others." Thus writes Ooyperthwaite, and other good turf authorities agree with him to the same r fleet. On the side of f.be dam of Pr.icTOKE there is a lot of good blood coming in throui.li The Premier, whose arand'-ure, Ton;boy, was by ' .Tcrrv, out of the Ardrossau mare (the dam" of the mare i'v.esv.'ing, celebrated not or.lv as a fir.-.t-class racer, but also as the maternal ancestress of England's : very best family of racch->:ses at the present I :-ime, viz., the Nf-wmimter--). The Delapr<S '' blood is also verv good indeed. Delapr6's dim Fortress, bv Defence, was the dam of the Derby winner. Pyrrhus the First. Mrs. Uobcris. "'he ixreat grand-dam of I'KRTOBE, was by' Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood is i -.rood, he beint; by Wanderer, by Gohanna, '< '"V Mercury, by Kclipse. In Tasmania, so j much is the Wanderer blood thought of, ! that they say " a bad one by Wanderer was [ never known," and if they cau trace a pedii jree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that spiite sufficient. ! PERTOBE, by I "Augur," in the Australasian, June 15th, ] !S7S, says :—" I could fill the Australasian with the doings of "Panic," and his desj ceudants. As a sire of good, sound, and -u.-cf.iii stock he has never had an equal in. tin Vn-'/'U hemisphere. His victory in the Champion Race, and the style in which he carried lOst. into second place in the Melbourne Cup, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of his stock has become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the anciei-: Strop who won a race at kaujj'cstoii in iVoiuary, is a living example. Few hor.-0.-. have gone through such an ordeal as Melbourne, another son at present performing at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand, and he is also a sou of Panic. Postboy, Postman, Prodigious, and many other good cross country horses, too numerous to mention, are also descendants of the son o Alarm." Terms: L 5 ss, payable Ist of January, 1579.
