STALLIONS TO STAND REASON, At the Windsor Fr.rk !-"st > ti, near Oamaru, THE PUK.K-rf:!.D «" YDE3DALE ST Ai. i":T pRI NC K /ICT OR. PRINCE VICTOH is a beautiful, thickget, stoat-hearted,' dark-brown stallion, rather under than over 16 hands 3 inches, bred by John Henderson, Esq., Parkmams, was got by Prince of Wales. The illustrious stud horse of L. Drew, Esq., Merryton out of Rosie, a mare belonging to an exceedingly favorable strain of Blood, and ! is one of the finest and most perfect mares that ever looked through a bridle. She gained many first prizes, and at Maryhill, I V on second honors as a brood mare in a competition that was open to all .Scotland. Kosie was got by the famous horse Victor, the winner of first prizes at Gatehouse of fleet, Stranwaer, Kirkubright,, and Wigtownshire, and in 186*, won second prize at the Highland Society's Show at Stirling, and was afterwards sold to go to Australia. The great breeding lines of Prince Victor are the fine combinations of the Prince of Wales* blood crossed with that of Victor's, which trace back uninterruptedly to the Colomba Stock of 1835. Rosie' granddam was Jean, the dam of Disraeli, who, when a 2-year-old, won first prizes at the Highland Society's Show, held at Glascow in 1875 ; and as a 3-year-old, he won first prize at the Glasgow stallion Spring Show of 1876. .. tr Prince Victor last year could boast of four winners at the different shows, local and district performances, sach as these, also his pedigree—ancestry, shining with the names of the founders of what is known- as the Victor br«>ed, should not fail to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims as a sire. He is a horae of great substance and power, has many points of great excellence to recommend him as a breeder, qualities which are inherent in the Clydesdale character of the modern school; also, has a large share of his sire's good qualities, the fnll and perfect imago of that which may be regarded as a specimen of the genus, and which is virtually extinct in Victoria since the . death of Mr. Cox's "exceptionally grand horse, Prince of Wales." There is not too much of him, perhaps, but his make, shapo. and blood are the su rest teat of excellence. Hi i Fine leys, strong and great bone, clran, and flowing with nice hair—the true bftdgc of a well-bred Clydesdale and if fiis sire is a landmark of the anci-nt state of things, Prinpe Victor is the epitome of the new. and one of the mast compact and fashionable horses to be seen. Terms—Ten Guineas. Payable on the Ist February. Groom's Fee, sa. Paddocking free for ouo month, aftci which 2s Gd per week will be charged. Every care taken, but no responsibility. E.
