PERTOBB iB a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, in. 1569. Got .by Panic (imported); his dam,. Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (impotted), out of Miss Napier, by DelaprtS (imported) ; Miss Napier's dain, Mrs. Roberta,, by Wanderer (imported). —See Victorians Stud Book, Vol. 11.,, p. s7* Panio was imported from England to Tasmania, and put; to the stud at 3 yrs. old. Ho was trained I and raced at 4, and again put to the stud.. \yhen he was 6 yrs. old, he was purohasedl at a high price and, imported to Victoria,, where he had two more seasons' training; and racing. He proved himself' the besfc English horse ever trained in AustraliaHe ran remarkably well, and won several! races, carrying heavy, weights ; ho wasbothi speedy and staying, of a most docile andl quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution!, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firsts, class English racehorse Alarm, "he wasi never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired fromi the turf without a blemish. At the although from being in an out-of-the-waiy place, he has not been favored by manfy first-class' mares, he has got more winners out of half-bred ones than any horse in Victoria, and for general purposes his stock ia much esteemed. ■ In the breeding of PERTOBE there ia ix combination. of some excellent straiua o£ blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, im that famous line through Defence, audi which comes to him on the sides of botls sire and dam. On his sire Panic's side there ia, as well as his good Defence bloody that of the game and stout Venison, th<a powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, mosis excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " Tho value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable* having furnished so many proofs,' not alone as to its being speedy and staying, but also to its 'training on,'and being essentially a ' running strain for although some others occasionally produce one or two first-class animals, . few, if any, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand recommendation of this strain of blood is, that it mixes successfully with, and improves, all others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, and other good turf authorities agree with him. to the same effect. On the side oi : the dam of Pertobe there is a lot oil: good . blood coming in through The Pre--mier, whose grahdsire, Tomboy, was. bjj' Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mava (thc> dam, of the mare Beeswing, celebrated! not only as a first-class racer, but also as the maternal ancestress of England*® very best family of racehorses at the present time, viz., the Newminsters). The D&lapr<Sj blood is ako very good indeed. Delaprii'a dam, Fortress, by Defence, was tho dam, off the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mra. Roberts, the great grand-dam of Per'VO&k, was by Wanderer, and Wand@rer-'& Mood is good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohanna, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so much is the Wanderer blood thought of,, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer wasi never known," and if they can trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient.

As a Biro of good, and useful stock he has never had an equal in the Southern, hemisphere. His victory im the Lauhceston Champion Race, and the style in which ho carried 10st. into second place in the Melbourne Cup, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that h<s was a racehorse of n» mean order. The soundness of his Btook haa. become a proverb on the Australian Turf* and the ancient Strop who won a race at; Launceston in February, is a liring exampltv Few horses have gone through such an ordeail as Melbourne, another son at presont per-, forming at Queensland. The greatest of allj steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand„ and he is also a son of Panic. Postboy,, Postman, Prodigious, and many other good cross country horses; too numerous to men®, tion, are also descendants of the son oS Alarm." Terms: L 5 ss, payable Ist of Januarys 1880.
