Henderson's Whdafli The fashionably - bred and 'very superior Thorough-bred Horso PER T 0 B E Eminently suited for getting Hunters' Handsome Weight-carrying Hacks, and Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple browta Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Viotoria, la 1869. Got by Panio (imported); his dam Heßter Grazebrook, by The Premier (imi ported), but of Miss Napier, by Delaprd (in. Eorted); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberts y Wanderer (imported). See Victoria' Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. Jfl. 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 & 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 sevoral races, carrying heavy weights ; he was both speedy and staying, of a most dooile and. quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution,, and legs like iron. Like bis sire, that firstclass English raoehorso Alarm, "ho was never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired ftwn the turf without a blemish. At the although from boing in an out-of-the*way place, he has not been favored by many first-class mares, he has got mora trainers out: of half-bred ones than any hoiraa in Vio. toria, and for general purposes, fcia stook in, much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTCXRK there ia. « combination of some excelLeat strains e£ blood, such as the Waxv-Whalobono), ih that famous line through and which comes to him on the Bides of both sire and dam. Oa his sire aido there is, as well as his good Defo&r.a blood,, that of the game and stout Veuason, thoi powerful and speedy Melbourne., and, most! excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tha value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alaue as to its being speedy and staying, but also to its 'training on,' and being essentially a ' running strain;' for although some othors 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 tho side of; the dam of Pkrtobe there is a lot o£ good blood coming in through The Premier, whose grandsiro, Tomboy, was by? Jerry, out. of the Ardrossan mare (tho dam of the mare Beeswing, colebratodl not only as a first-class r&cor, butt also as the maternal ancestress o£ England's very best family of racehorses at the present! time, viz., the Newminsters). The L)elapr6 blood is also very good indeed. Delay's dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the darn off the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mra» Roberts, tho great grand-dam of Pkrtobhi, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood ia good, he being by Wanderer, by Gokanua, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, to much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they saya bad one by Wanderer was never known," and if they can traco a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient, PERTOBE, by CP 1 MR TO <3 58 vi O 01 a s* J?

As a airo of good, sound, ai}® useful stook he has never had an equal j tt the Southern hemisphere. His victory to the Launceston Champion Race, and tha style in which he carried lOst. 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 stook ha become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the ancient Strop who won a race at Launceston in February, is a living example* Few horses have gone through such an ordeal as Melbourne, another son at present performing at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand,, and he is also a son of Panio. Fostbqyn, Postman, Prodigious, and many other good cross country horses, too numerous to menj tion, are also descendants of the son oC Alarm." Terms: L 5 ss, payable Ist of January# 1880.
