Such is the breeding of a diroct descendant of one of the most successful thoroughbred families of modern tines, As tbe dam of Manuka, Toi Toi, HaraTotara, Renga, Papapa, Wainui, Kauri, Waiiti, Rama Rama, and Puriri, old Waimea, has indeed left an imperishable name, and it would take a volume to recount the victories gained by the progeny of the old mare, The mention of Puriri's ancestors will recall to breeders the victories in this Colony of Manuka, Peeress, Koran', Kakapo, Longlands, Papapa, Laconfeed, Songster, Tarnburini, and a host of others, whilst in Victoria and New South Wales, the excellence of the Melbourne—Sir Hercules' cross shone out in Progiess, whose sire, Angler, is. from Towton's own sister, Marchioness, and whose dam, Coquetto, is by Sir Hercules. Claiming close relationship to so many (?reat Vacenorses it is unnecessary to <io more than briefly mentionThat Waimea was full sister to Zoe, winner of two Australian Champion Racen, also to Cossack. Bay Middleton, Flora, 10, and Nutwith, the latter so well known in this dißtriot as a sire, That Waimea's sire, Sir Hercules, was also sire of The Barb, and Yattendon, the latter for years tho premier stallion of Australasia, who, in his turn, nave us Grand Flameur, Chester, and scores of other notables. Towton's Bister, Marchioness, won the English Oaks, aud is the dam of Fishhook, Rose of Donmark, Angler, and King of Clubs, the latter is now m the middle Park Stud, Canterbury, That the Peer, Towton's brother, is the sire of Manuka, Peeress, Troy, and Darebin, That Manuka is the sire of Duchess, winner o! the V.E.C.

That Towton is the sire of Korari, Tambourini, Rama Kama, Songster—siro of Hornby—Atalanta, dam of Pungawerewere, Waiti, dam of Iris, That the Marquis, who won the 2000 Guineas Stakes and St, Leger, subsequently running Caraclacus to a head for the Derby, is now in the Bundoora Park Stud where Lurline is, and is half brother to Towton, being also a son of Cinizelli, and sire of the Painter, Newminster, His Lordship. &o„ That Puriri as a laccborso amongst our very best performers stood quite in the first rank, winning the Duuedin Derby, beating Bribery, Fallacy, Hippocampus, Danebury, Dead Heat, und Spray, and to quote from the report" having all his field beaten half a mile from home, won hands down." Only Dead H.-at would oppose him in the Canterbury St, Leger, which Puriri also won iu a canter. As an index to the high character Puriri possessed when racing it is only necessary to state that he was handicapped as a four year old to carry the crushing weight of 9st lib in the Canterbury Metropolitan Handicap, 1877,1J miles, aud thea Btarted at 2to 1 when Templelon, aged, only had 9sfc Slbs allotted to him, Ariel, syrs, 9st 81ba, and Foul Play, 3yrs, only carried 6st 71bs, _ Add to Putin's undoubtedly high credentials for breeding and performances, that he stands over 16 hands with proportionate substance all through, and owners of brood mares can form a fair estimate of the capabilities of the sire placed at their services for the ensuing season—whether for bi racehorses, hacks, or carriage horses, Puriri has been at the stud three and was awarded two first prizes and two champion prizes at Patea, and first prize at Wanganui, also the champion cup for the best thoroughbred on the ground, Terms,-f44s each mare; two or more by arrangement, payable Ist of January, 1885, Grazin? free till notice, Every care taken but no responsibility.
