Henderson's Windmill* The fashionably - bred and very superior Thorough-bred Horse E R T O B E'„ i • Eminently suited for getting Hunters, Handsome Weight-carrying Haoka, and Houses suitable for the 'lndian Marked is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hahdß high. Bred by H.J Phillips,.; Esq., Viotoria, in 18<>9. Got by Panio (imported); his dam, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (imported),; out of Miss Napier, by Dplaprtf (imEorted) •, _ Miss Napier'B dam, Mrs. Roberto, yi Wand.erer (imported).—See Victoria Stud Book', Vol. 11., p. Ifl. Panio was imported from England to Tasmania, and pot to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trained and racedafc 4, and again put to the - stud. When he was ,6 yrs. old, he was purchased. at a high price and imported to Viotoria, where he had two more seasons' training and racing. He proved himself the best English .horse ever trained in Australia. He ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weights ; ho was both* speedy and staying, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firstclass' English racehorse Alarm, "ha was never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the atud, although from being in, an out-of-the-way plaice, he : has not been favored by many first-clads mares, he has got more winners out of half-bred ones than any horse'in Via* toria, and for general purposes his stock is much esteemed; ' In the breeding of PERTOBE there is a combination of Bome excellent strains of blood, such as the Waxy- Whalebone, in that famous line througli Defence, aud which comes to him on tne sides of both sire and dam. On his sire Panic's aids there'is, as well as his good Defence bloody that of the game and stout Venison; that powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, mosfc excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " Th* value of the Pantaloon blood is having furnished so many proofs, not alono as to its being speedy ana staying, but alao» to itß ' training on,' and being essentially a ' running strain for although some others occasionally produce one or two first-olasa 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 aide of the dam of Pertobh there is a lot of good blood coming in through The Premier, whose graudsiro, Tomboy, was' by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first -olass raoer, but also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the present time, viz., the Newminsters). The Delapri blood, is also very good indeed. I)elapr6'a dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dam #1 the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs. Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pertobh, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood 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 was never known," and if they can traca a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient.

"Augur," in the Australasian, June 15tk 1878, says" I could fill the Austral with the doings of " Panic," and his descendants. As a sire of good, sound* a»d j stock he has never had an equal Vk f the Solithern hemisphere. His victory ia . the Launceston .Champion Raoe, and the style in which ho carried lOst. into seoend place in the Melbourne Cup, were performanoes of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he was a racehorse of no mean'order. The soundness of h&stdok has become > a proverb on the Austrtdian Turf, and the anoient Strop who won a raoe at Launceston in February,' is a living example. Few lioraes have gone through such an omeal aa Melbourne, another son at present per* forming; at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand, ind he is also a son of Panio. Postboy. Postman, Prodigious, and many other good . oiross country horses, too numerous to men* tion, are also descendants of the son of Alarm."
