Black Douglas, by Agronomer, dam Blackbird, bred by Dr Wilmore, of Tasmania. The feire, Agronomer, was bred " by Mr Westfield, of South Carlton, near Lincoba,'and was bought by Mr Robert Howard, of Rise Farm, Nbrtori, Lincoln, on the 10th October, 1853, and exhibited by him at the Royal Agricultural Society's Show, held at Lincoln, England, in iTuly, 1854 where he was awarded the Ist prize as the best Yearling Agricultural Stallion in Class 3rd, No. 228 of the Society's Catalogue. The prize open to all breeds of Cart Horses. The following is taken from the Mark Lane Express and Agricultural Journal, of 24th July, 1854 :— •" The most remarkable animal, in our opinion in the yard, or at any rate amongst the Horses, may be seen in the 3rd class ; we need not say that we allude to Mr Robert Howard's Prize Yearling; every one mentions it with a glow of enthusiasm. It stands out alone in the class, and the other competitors suffer by the comparison, although there are some fine colts too: And Lincolnshire bear 3 the belt. Never did we see a yearling so furnished, his points excel those of some four year olds. The Ist Prize could not have Been more properly awarded, although-, the other yearlings : are dwarfed by comparison with this peerless creature." Agronomer was imported by Richard Lewis, Esq., of Rifle Downs, in 1855, and has only been exhibited; at one Show Yard in the Colony which was at Hamilton, Victoria, in 1858, where he was awarded the Ist Prize. He is hj Sir Abraham Newland, jun.; grandsire, Abraham Newland, sen., never beaten in the neighborhood. Dam, Mr Westfield's extraordinary marej by that noted horse, John Bull. Black Douglas has proved himself a sure foal getter, and his produce [is Becond to none in the Portland District : j TERMS: THREE GUINEAS. Mares missing foal will bo served next year gratutiously. - D. M'INTYRE.
