Thorough-bred Horse ERT O B g Eminently suited for getting Huntort Handsome Weight-carrying Haoks, txA Horses suitablo for the Indian Market. PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, - Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Viotoria |# 1869. Got by Panic (imported); his dam Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (in' ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprd (in! ported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. lioborti by Wanderer (imported). See Victoria Stud Booh, Vol. 11., p. VI. Panio was % ported from England to Tasmania, and p«t to the stud at 3 yrs. old. Ho was trains and raced at 4, and again put to the stud, When lie was 6 yrs. old, ho was purclusci at a high price and imported to Viotoria, where he had two more seasons' trail--and racing. He proved himself tho English horse ever trained in Australia" He ran remarkably well, and won sovori] races, carrying heavy weights; ho was both speedy and stayiug, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his siro, that first, class English racehorse Alarm, "ho wm never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At tho stod, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favorod by many first-class mares, he has got more, winncn out of half-bred ones than any horso in Vic. toria, and for general purposes his stook it much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE thoro is a combination of some oxcellont strains o{ blood, such as tho Waxy-Whalebone, ia that famous lino through Dofecco, m 4 which conies to him on the sides of both, sire and dam. On his siro Panic's side there is, as well as his good Defence blood, that of tho game and stout Venison, tho powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, moat excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " Tho value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not nloao as to its being speedy and staying, but also to its 'training on,' and boing essentially a ' running strain for although some others occasionally produce one or two lirst-class animals, few, if any, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand recommendation of this strain of blooa is, tlwt it mixes successfully with, and improvos, all others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, aiiA other good turf authorities agree with him to the same effect. On tho sido oi' the dam of Pertoee there ia a lot o£ good blood coming in through Tho Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan maro {tho dam of the mare Boeswing, celebrated, not only as a first-class racor, but also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the preaenlt time, viz., tho Newminstors). The Delapi'6 blood is also very good indeed. Ddapre's dam, Fortress, by Defence, was tho dam oS tho Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs. Roberts, the great grand-dam o£ Pkrtohk, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood is good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohannu, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say "a bad one by Wanderorwia never known," and if they can trace a p<xi> gree to a Wanderer mare, they consider tliat quite sufficient.

As a sire of good, sound, and useful stock ho has never had an equal p the Southern hemisphere. His victory w* the Launceston Champion Raco, and th® style in which _he carried lOat. into second place in the Melbourne Cup, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of his stock has become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the ancient Strop who won a raco at Launceston in February, is a living exainplOj. Few horses have gone through such an ordea.' as Melbourne, another son at present per*' forming at Queensland.
