PRINCK VICTOR is a beautiful, thickset, stout-hearted, dark-brown stallion, rather under than over .16 hands. 3 inches, bred by John Henderson, Esq., Parkmau'.s, was got by Prince of Wales. The illustrious ::tud 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 horora 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, Kirkubrighfc, and Wigtownshire, and in ISG I, 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 1535. Rosie' granddam was Jean, the dam of Disraeli, who, when a 2-year-old, won first prizes at tiie Highland Society's Show, held at Glasgow in li>7s ; and 33 a 3-ycar-old, he won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Show of IS7G. Prince Victor last year could boast of four winnti'3 at the different shows, 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 br.'ed, should not fail to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims as asire. 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 winch is virtually extinct in Victoria since the death of 21 r. I.'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 landmark of the anci nt state of thing*, Prince Victor is the epitome of the new. and one of the most compact and fashionable horses to be seen.
