PRINCR VICTOR is a beautiful, thickset, stout-hearted, dark-brown stallion, rather under than over 16 hands 3 im-hef, bred by John Henderson, E?q., Parkmanis, was go't by Prince of Wales. The illustrious stud horse of L. Drew, Esq., Merryton out of Rosie, a mare belonging to an exceedingly favorabls 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, won second horors 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 iu IS6<, won second prize at the Highland Society's Show at Stirling, And was afterwards sold to go to_ Australia. The great breeding lines ot 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 waft Jean, the dam of Disraeli, who, when a 2-year-old, won first prizes at the Highland Society's Show, held at Glascow in 1575; aad as a 3-year-old, he won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Show of 1576. PriDcc Victor last year cotild boast of four winners at the different shows, loci'l and district performances, such as these, also his p^digrte—ancestry, shining with the namei ..{ tfco founder* of what is known .13 the Victor br»-ed, 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 are inherent in the Clydesdale character of the modern school; also, has a large thaic of his sire's good qualities, the full and perfect image of that which miy be regarded as a "specimen of the genus, and which is virtually extinct iu Victoria since the death of -Mr. Cox's "exceptionally grand horse. Prince of Wales." There is not too much of him, perhaps, but his inake. shape, and blood are the surest test of excellence. His fine leg 3, strong and g-eat bone, clean, and ilowing with nice hair—the true hadge of a well-bred Clydesdale—aud if his sire is* a landmark of the anoi nt state of thiogs, Prince Victor is the epitome of the new. and one of the most compact and fashionable horses to be seen.
