Henderson's Windmill The fashionably - bred and very Buneriiw Thorough-bred Horso PE R T O B E Eminently suited for getting Hunters Handsome Weight-oarrying Haoks, an! Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Viotoria, In 1869. Got by Panio (imported); hiß dam Hester Grasebrook, by The Premier (im* ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprd (im. ported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberts* by Wanderer (imported). See Victoria Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. 47. Panio was im. ported from England to Tasmania, and put to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trained and raced at 4, and again put to the stud. When he was 6 yrs. old, he was purchased, at a high price and imported to Victoria* where he had two more seasons' training and racing. He proved himself the bestt English horse ever trained in Australia.. He ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weights ; he was both speedy and staying, of a most docilo and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that first* class English racehorse Alarm, "he waa never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired fron* the turf without a blemish. At the staid,, although from being in an out-of-tha-waj? Elace, he has not been favored by many rat-class mares, he has got more winner* out of half-bred ones than any horse in Via. toria, and for general purposes his itook if much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE thero is a combination of some excellent strainß oi blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, ia that famous line through Defence, and which comes to him on the sides of both sire and dam. On his sire Panio's aida there is, as well as his good Defence blood; that of the game and stout Venison, the powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "The value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alontt as to its being speedy and staying, but also, to its 'training on,' and being essentially iv ' running strain for although some otuerst occasionally produce .one or two first-clasa animals, few, if any, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand re« commendation of this strain of blooa is, thati it mixes successfully with, and improves, &1S others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, and other good turf authorities agree with him to the same effect. On the side of the dam of Pertobb there is a lot of good blood coming in through The Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, waß bjf Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the* dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first- olasß racer, but, also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the. presoatt time, viz., the Newminsters). Th®. DolaprtS blood is also very good indeed. DelaprtS'si dam, Fortress, by Defenoe, waa tlijo dam. OS the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mra, Roberts, the great grand-dam. of Pertobb, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood is good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohanna, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, to much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer was, never known," and if they oan trace a pedi-. gree to a Wanderer mare, they consider thatl quite sufficient.

As a siro of good, sound, ana useful stock he has never had an equal |° the Southern hemisphere. His viotory in the Launceston Champion Race, and the style in which he carried lOst. into seoond place in the Melbourne Cap, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of his stook hj« become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the ancient Strop who won a raoe at Launceston in February, is a living example. Few horses have gone through such an ordeal as Melbourne, another son at present por* forming at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand, and he is also a son of Panio. Postboy. Postman, Prodigious, and many other good oross country horses, too numerous to men* tion, are also descendants of the son or Alarm." Terms: L 5 ss, payable Ist of 1880.
