Henderson's Windmill, The fashionably - bred and very superior Thorough-bred Horso PE R T O Bfi, Eminently suited for getting Hunters, Handsome Weight-carrying Hacks, and Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, fat 1869. Got by Panic (imported); his dam, Hester Graze brook, by Tho Premier (im. ported), out of Miss Napier, by Dolapr6 (im. ported); MiBS Napier's dam, Mrß. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported). See Victoria Stud Booh, Vol. 11., p. 47. Panio was im. ported from England to Tasmania, and put to the stud at 3 yrs. old. Ho was trained and raced at 4, and again put to the atud,. When he wm 6 yrs. old, he was purchased! at a high prioo and imported to Victoria,, where he had two more seasons' training and racing. Ho proved himself tho best English horso ever trained in Australia. He ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weights ; he was both speedy and staying, of a most docile audi quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution* and legs like iron. Like his sire, that first, class English racehorse Alarm, "he was never sick, sorfry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At tho stud, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not boon favored by many first-class mares, ho has got more winucrs out of half-bred ones than any horso in Vic> toria, and for general purposes his stock ii. much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is a combination of some excellent strains oS blood, sucli as the Waxy-Whalebone, in that famous Hue through Defence, and which comes to him on the sides of both sire and dam. On his sire Panic's Bide there is, as well as his good Dofence blood, that of the game and stout Venison, tho powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " Tho value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not aloua as to its being speedy and staying, but also to its 'training on,' and boing ossontially a ' running strain for although some others occasionally produce one or two first-class animals, few, if any, can compote -srith Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand recommendation of this strain of blood ia, that it mixes aucoossfully with, and improves, aES others." Thus writes• Gopperthwaite, audi other good turf authorities agree with him to the same effect. On the side of the dam of Pertobf, thoro is a lot of good blood coining iu through The Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan in are (tha dam of tho mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-class racer, but also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at tho present time, viz., the Newininsters). The DelaprS blood is also very good indeed, Delaj>r6's dam, Fortress, by Defence, was tho dam of the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs. Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pbrtobk* was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood ia good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohanna* by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, sti much is the Wanderer blood thought of N that they say " a. bad one by Wanderer waft never known," and if they can pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider thai quite sufficient.

His victory the Launccston Champion Race, and tlw dtyle in which ho carried lOst. into second place in the Melbourne Cup, were p e^ ances of merit, and suflicient to satisfy to* most exacting that he was a racehorse of no tneau order.
