See Now Zealand or English Stud Book for Towton or Waimea's ancestors. Such is the breeding of a direct descendant of one of the most successful thoroughbred families of modern times, As the dam of Manuka, Toi Toi, Harakeke, Totara, Renga, Papapa, Wainui, Kauri, Waiiti, Boma Rama, and Puriri, old Waiiiua, has indeed left an imperishable name, and it would take a volume to recount the victories gained by the progeny of the old mave. The mention of Purii'i's ancestors will recall to breeders the victories in this Colony (.'f Manuka, Peeress, Korari, Kakapo, Longlands, Papapi, Laconfeed, Songster, Tarnburiui, aud a host of others, whilst in Victoria and New South Wales, the excellence of the Melbourno-Sir Hercules' cross shone out in Progiess, whose sire. Angler, is from Towton's own sister, Marchioness, and whos<) dam, Coquetto, is by Sir Hercules. Olaiming olose relationship to so many great racehorses it is unnecessary to <tlo more than briefly mentionThat Waimea was iull sister to Zoe, winner of too Australian Champion Races, also to Cossaok, Bay Middlotnn, Flora, 10, and Nutwith, tho latter so woll known iu this dlstriot as a sire. That Waimea's sire, Sir Hercules, wan also sire of The Barb, and Yattendon, the latter for yoars the premier stallion of Australasia, who, in his turn, t>ave us Grand Flameur, Chester, and scores of other nqtables, Towton's sister, Marchioness, won the English Oaks, aud is the'dam of Fishhook, Uoao of Denmark, Angler, and #mg pf Clubs, the latter is now m the middle park Stud, Canterbury.

That Purjri as a racehorse amontjst our very beat performers stood quite in the first rank, winning the JDiinpdin pcrjiy, beating Bribery, Fallacy, Hippocampus, Danebury, Dead Heat, mid Spray, aud 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 in a canter. As an index to the high c.iaracter Puriri possessed when racing it is only necessary to state that ho was handicapned as a four year old to carry'ihe crushing weight of 9st lib in the Canterbury Metropolitan Handicap, 1877,1J miles, and Ihoj stattod at gto 1 when Tcmplotou, aged, only had 9st 31bs allotted to him, Ariel, s.yrs, fjat 81bs, and FouU'lay, 3yrs, only carried Gsfc 71bs. _ Add to Puriii's undoubtedly high credentials for breeding and performances, that he stands over 16 hands with proportionate fcul-stance all through, aud owners of brood mares can form n fair estimate of the capabilities of the sire placed at their services for the ensuing season--whether for breeding racehorseß, hacks, or carriaue horses. Puriri has been at the stud three years, and was awarded two first prizes aud two champion prizes at Patca, and first prize at Wanganui, <ilso the champion 'cup for the best thoroughbred on the ground.
