JONES, Wharf-street, Oamaru, CHARLES BEGG AND CO., Dunbdet 475 STALLIONS TO STAND THIS SEASON, At the Windsor Park Estate, near Oamaru, THE PURE-BRED CLYDESDALE STALLION pRINCE VICTOR. PRINCK VICTOR is a beautiful, thickset, stont-bearted, dark*brown stallion, rather under than over 16 hands 3 inches, bred by John Henderson, Esq., Parkmanis, 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. Slie gained many first prizes, and at Maryhill, won second hosors as a brood mare in a competition that was open to all Scotland. Rosie was got by the famous horse Victor, the winner of first prizes at Gatehouse of Fleet, Stranwacr, Kirknbright, and Wigtownshire, and in 1861, 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 Culomba Stock of 1535. ltosie' granddam was Jean, the dam of Disiaeli, who, wlion a 2-year-old, won first prizes at the Highland Society's Show, held at Glasgow in lb/5 ; 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 shows, local and district performances, such as these, also his p-idigrce—ancestry, thining with the names »f the founders of what is known as the Victor breed, should not fail to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims as asiro. lie is a horse 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 larca share of his 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. C'ox'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. His fine legs, strong and great bone, clean, and flowing with nice hair-—the true badge of a well-bred Clydesdale—and if his sire is a lindmark of the anci nt state of things, Prinee Victor i 3 the epitome of the new. and one of the mo3t compact and fashionable horses to be seen.
