STALLIONS TO STAND THIS SEASON, At the Windsor Pork > stit-t. near Oamaru, THE PURE-BJKO C. VDESDALE STM■' i" %: pKI KG K VICTOR. PRINCE VICTOR. is a Leautiful, thickset, stout-hearted, dark-brown stallion, rather under than over 16 hands 3 inches, bred by John Henderson. E- c q., Parkmania, was got by Prince of Wales. The illustrious stud horae of L. Drew, Esq., Merryton out of Ro.«ie, 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 yained many first prizes, and at Maryhill, Won second honors as a bror»d mar" in a competition that was open to all Scotland. Itoaie was got bv the famous horse Victor, the winner of first prizes at Gatehouseof Fleet, Stranwaer, Kirkubright, and Wigtownshire, and in 18fi*, won second prize at the Highland Society's Show at Stirling, and wa3 afterwards sold to go to Australia. The great breeding lines of Prince Victor are the fiae combinations of the Prince of Wales* blood crossed with that of Victor's, which tTace back uninterruptedly to the Colomba Stock of 1535. 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 Glasgow in I&7-i ; and as a 3-year-old, he won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Show of 1576. Prince Victor last year could boast of four winners at the different show*, local and district performances, such as these, also his pedigree—ancestry, thining with the names of the founders of what is known as the Victor breed, should not fail to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims as a sire. He is a horse of great substance and power, has many points of great excellence to recommend him as a breeder, qualities which arc inherent in the Clydesdale character of the modern school; also, has a larg; share of liis sire's good qualities, the full and perfect image 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, shape, and blood are the surest test of excellence. Hii fine legs, strong and great bono, clean, and llowing with nice hair—the true badge of a well-bred Clydesdale—and if his sire is a landmark of the ancL nt state of tilings, Prince Victor i 3 the epitome of the new. and one of the most compact and fashionable horses to be seen. Terms—Ten Guineas. Payable on the Ist February. Groom's Fee, ss. Paddocking free for one month, after which 2s Gd per week will be charged. Every care taken, but no responsibility. E.
