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. Tho 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 aiaed many first prizes, and at Maryhill, won second honors as a brood mare in a competition thai v."<is 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 1861, won second prize at the Highland Society's Show at Stirling, and was afterwards sold to go to Australia. The great breeding linos of Prince Victor are tho fine combinations of the Prince of Walts' blood crossed with that of Victor's, which trace back uninterruptedly to the o>l->mba Stock of 1535. Rosie' granddam was Jean, the dam of Disraeli* who, when a 2-year-old, won first prizes at the iiiglilaud Society's Show, held at Glasgow in l£>7o ; 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 performance'.:, such as these, aleohis pedigree—ancestry, filming with tho names of the founders of what is known as the Victor breed, should not fail to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims a? 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 1.-irg-i share of his sire's good qualities, tho full and perfect image of that which may be regarded as a specimen of tho genus, and which is virtually extinct in Victoria since the death of Mr. Cox's "exceptionally gra»d horse, Princo 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 bono; clean, and flowing with nice hair—the tine badge of a well-bred Clydesdale—and it his sire is a landmark of the anci -nt state of things, Prince Victor is the epitome of the new. and one of the most compact and fashionable liorse3 to be seen.
