PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, fa 1869. Got by Panic (imported); his dam, Hestier Grazebrook, by The Premier (im. ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprt (im. ported); Misß Napier's dam, Mrs.' Roberts by Wanderer (imported).—See Victoria' Stud Book, Vol. 11,, p. 47. Panic was imported from England to Tasmania, and put, to the stud at 3 yrs. old. Ha was trained and raced at 4, and again put to the atucL 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 best English horse ever trained in Australia, He ran remarkably well, and won several raoes, oarrying heavy weights ; he was both speedy and staying, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that first* class English racehorse Alarm, "hs was never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the stud, although from being in an out-of-the-way >lace, he has not been favored by many irst-class mares, he has got mora winiwra out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vio* toria, and for general purposes. his stock is much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTQBE thexo is & combination of some excellent strains of blood, such as. the Waxy-Whalebone, in that famous line through Defence, and which comes to him on the Bides of both sire and dam: On his sire Panic's side there is, as well as his good Defence blood, that of the game and stout Venison, tha powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, bu>b6 excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tha value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniably having furnished so many proofs, nob atooe as to its being speedy and staying, bot also to its 'training on,' and being essentially a ' running strain for although some others occasionally produce one or two first-claeft animals, few, if any, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand re*, commendation of this strain of blood is, that: it mixes successfully with, and improrcs, alii others." Thus writes Copperthwaito* andi other good turf authorities agree with himi to the same effect. On the side oft' the dam of Pertobe there is a lot off good blood coming in through The Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of tho Ardrossan mare {tha dam of the m&ro Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-class racer, bit also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the present time, viz., the Newmiuators). The Delaprd blood is also very good indeed. Delapr6's dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dam of the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs.. Roberts, the great grand-dam of PkrtobVs, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood, ift good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohaswa,, by Meroury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, ecu much iB the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer waat never known," and if they can trace a podi-. gree to a Wanderer mare, they consider thai quite sufficient.

I "Augur," in the Australasian, Juno I3th 1878, says I could fill the Australasian with the doings of " Panic," and his des» cendants. As a siro of good, sound, and useful stock he has never, had an equal }° the Southern hemisphere. His victory® the Launceston Champion Race, and tho style in which he . earned lOst. into seoona place in the Melbourne Cup, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy tho most exacting, that he was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of his stooknas become a proverb on the Australian Tnn» and the ancient Strop who won a raca a Launceston in February, is a living example. Few horses have gone through such an oraeai as Melbourne; another son at present per* forming at Queensland. The greatest ateieplechasers is undoubtedly Lone a <*» and he is also a son of Panic. P° Bt 7j Postman, Prodigious, and many other g cross country horses, too numerous to tion, are also descendants of tho son Alarm." T Terms: L 5 ss, payable Ist of Jam««7' 1880.
