PRINCE VICTOR is a beautiful, thickset, stout-hearted, 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. She gained many first prizes, and at Maryhill, won 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 IS6*, 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 Shov, held at Glasgow in 1875; and as a 3-year-old, lie won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Show of 1876. Prince Victor last year could boast of four winners at the different shows, locnl and district performances, such as the3e, also his pedigree—ancestry, diining 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 are inherent in the Clydesdale character of the modern school; also, has a large 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. 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. Hi-: fine logs, strong and great bone, clean, and flowing with nice hair—the true badge of a well-bred Clydesdale—and if his sire is a landmark of the anci nt state of things, Prince Victor is the epitome of the new. aud one of the most compact and fashionable horse 3 to be seen.
