The f.ict that Mscatorions is the only Fisherman and Traducer nick obtainable should be sufficient to entitlo him to the respect of breeders. Yearlings by Piscatorious, out of Thoroughbred roares, vrou'd bring at auction from 100 to 150 guineas in nny part ot the world. Owners if marcs who are desirous to breed high pried youngsters should stick to winning strains Mid put their mares to a horse bred on tho lines of Pisoatorious, wlvse breeding alone would command him a big season in any part of Ihe world, Pitcatoiioiw' first got when a yearling brought 250 guineas. He was shipped to Sydney to take part in the big two-ycar-o!d cvems of New -South Wales and Victoria, and since he 1 ldtd in Sydney lie has been purchased at the high figure of 700 guineas by a well-known New Suuth WVei sportsman, After his pe:formame in the Hawkesbury Guinea in September the " Town & Country Journal" stated that the owner of Kiiii'fish bad refused an offer of four figures for the colt, In speaking of this colt, the Australian sporting scribes always give him the prefix of the "handsome" Ringlisli, "Augur" in the "Australasian" says he was not within 101b of his best form, when he raced in the A.J.C. Derby against Trii dent,

In Hawkesß.iy Picatoiioiis Ims obtained Champion I'rizes Uo year? in succession, amino mattor what clasrof mare pitroniso* him, the braider is sure to pet lomtthiug that will recoup him for his outhy, on account of his.pureness of blood, size and sul'Staiice. His two-year-olds in Hawkes Bay, out of average mares, cannot bo purchased under CO guineas. Hermit ia by Nowminster, by Touchstone. Blood will tell. Pi-catorious has more pure Touchstone, 1100 l coursing through his veins than nny of 0" how living. It is no idle bosat to s?y th.tt Fisca'onouß is the b> st lj: ed tire south of the line, for undoult odly he i*, snd, moreover, lio is in every respect what his pedigree would imply—a magnificent stamp of a thoroughbred weehorse, pwsessing great power, and full if etout and fast blood.

No doubt the Hon. J. White's big auccesa is through taping ttict'y to winning strains. The beat horse ho ever owned was Trident, by Kobtoson Cru.-00, by Angler, by l'i«herman. Suma sport-.men aver that it is "WL.to'sluek." It iB no Buub thing. It ie liia sound sena?, and gooi judgment, that uarryis that gentleman through. There is no secret in tb«> matter, and be knows that to breed winners, it is necessary to slick to winning families. In color Ptscatorinns is ft heantiful dark brown, with black pohitu, stauling )6 hands 2in high, has a nei{ expiwvo liead (never a nonter or clcantr u«aU eofc on a neck), indicative of ag- od temper.

Piscatorimishurt himself in a nhe fence f-htn a youngster, and from the effects of this accident i;c has always an fed more or less during the whole time he was training.

TO TRAVEL IN THE WAIRARAPA DM: TKICT, Pure Clydesdale Stallion, Avon. AVON is r bay horse with black points, and stands 17 hands high, with plenty of bone and bair." He ia come of a great family. Hia dam was sold at BCO guines when good mates were sold at a fourth of that price. She is out of a Blackleg marc—one of a family of four, out of the same dam, and the quartette, by Renfrew Jock, wcro the four best horaeß ever bred in the Oamaru district. AVON, by Avon Chief (150, N.Z.5.8.) bred by W*. Boag, Esq., Fendalton, near Chrißfcchurch, out of his famous prize mare Grace Darling (30), by Prince of Kilbride, imported (602). Graco Darling, by Prince Charlie, imported (i and 626), Graco Darling was the best mare that ever stood in New Zealand. She has been first and Champion at Chriakhurch many times, beating the great Maggie Craig, Champion of Scotland. She was first in Dimedin in her class and champion of the yard. <' In fact her career is unprecedented.' ■ . AVON'S dam, Gipsy, by Renfrew Jock (135, imported from Victoria; g sire Renfrew, imjwrted from Scotland; g dam Jess, by Blackleg imported from' Scotland. Renfrew Jock's dam Rofii, by Crowdcn Lad, a famous Olydesdalv imported from Scotland by the lato David Ncabitt, Renfrew Jock was a most successful show horse. Before leaving Victoria ho took Bion in Oamaru, Timaru and Dunediri, and Champion of the yard as From this history breeders will recognise the t they have in Avon not only a horse of good parts, but an Entire of good lineage, a matter altogether different from a good looking horso. The great point in horse breeding is to havo a sire connected with good families of undoubted character. In the one caso the .stock will be uuiformly good, while in the other case individuals may surpass, but tho general chaiactcr of the stock will be inferior and disappointing, Nothing is more grievous to a breeder than to see weeds spring from a good looking sire.
