IN THE PAPAKAIO, WATAR. L KA, AND KARA. NUI DISTRICTS, If sufficient inducement offers, The fashionably - bred"' and very superior Thorough-bred Horse E R T O B ] L Eminently suited for getting Huntew, Jandsome Weight-carrying Hacka, and Horses suitable for the Indian Market PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, i» 1869. Got by Panic (imported); hia iaa, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (imported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprt (imEorted) ; Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberta, y Wanderer (imported). See Vietorit* Stud Booh, V 01.'11., p. 47. Panic was imported from England to Tasmania, and pat to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trained and raced at 4, and again put to the stud. When he was 6 yrs. old, he was purchased at a high price and imported to Victoria, where he had two more seasons' training and racing. He proved himself the b«*i English horse ever trained in Australia, He ran remarkably well, and won seYoral races, carrying heavy weights ; he was botk speedy and staying, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firgt. class English racehorse Alarm, "k« vat never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired fron the turf without a blemish. At the stud, although from being iu an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by many first-class mares, he has got more winnen out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vic. toria, and for general purposes hia stock ii much esteemed.

In the breeding of PERTOBE there is i I combination of some excellent strains of v blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in | that famous line through Defence, and P which comes to him on the sides of both [; sire and dam. On his Panic's side |; there is, as well as his good Defence blood, i that of the game and stout Venison, the i powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, mort | excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " Tin ;' ; value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alow as to its being speedy and staying, but *lm co its 'training on,' and being essentially 1 ' running strain ;' for although soma othe» occasionally produce ono or animals, few, if any, can compete wi& | Pantaloon as to ijumbera.\ A recommendation ofvfihis strain of bl<*M i». tlut it mixes successfully with, and impure*. *ll others." Thu3 writes Copperthwait*, iad other good turf authorities agree fyithMjim to the same effect. On the side of the dam of Pertobe there is a lot of trood blood coming in through The Pre. tnier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was bj Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-class racer, bat also as the maternal ancestress of Englaai'i very best family of racehorses at the present ; time, viz., the Newminsters). The Dalapie' j blood is also very good indeed. Delaurfl dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the darn «i the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Jin. Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pektobj, I was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood ii good, he being by Wanderer, by Gobanas, by Mercurv, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, s« j much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer WM never known," and if they can trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mai e, they consider thit quite sufficient. PERTOBE, by

1878, says :—" I could fill the Australasian witn tho doings of " Panic," and his delcendants. As a sire of good, sound, and useful stock he has never had an equal in tlio Southern hemisphere. Has victory in the Launeeston Champion Race, and tie style in which he carried 10st. into second plac- i=- the Melbourne Cup, were performaucb„ of merit, aud sufficient to satisfy thi most exacting that he was a racehorse of nO mean order. The soundness of his stock hu become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the ancient Strop who won a race »* Launeeston in Fobruary, is a living example P?w horses have gone through such an ordoil as Melbourne, another son at present pel) forming at Queensland. The greatest of W steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand, aud he is also a son of Panic. Posiboy> Postman, Prodigious, and many other good cross country horses, too numerous to mention, are also descendants of the son e Alarm."
