Kobinson Crusoe, by Angler, by Fisherman. Navigator, by Eobiuson Crusoe, by Angler, by Fisherman, Soratio, by Maribyrong, by Fisherman, Progress, by Angler. Trident, by Kobinson Crusoe, by Angler, by Fisherman. It will be seen from the above that the stout-hcancd Fisherman has been even more tn the Australian Turf than Tradtuer fri the New Zealand. The fact that Piscatorious is the only Fisherman and Tnulucer nick obtainable should be sufficient to entitle hir to the respect of breeders. Yearlings by Piscatorious, out of Thoroughbrtd marcs, woud bring at auction from 100 to 150 guineas in any part oi the world. Ownersnf mates who are desirous to breed high priced youngsters should stick to winuiug strains uiul put their mares to a horse bred on the lines of Piseatorinus, wh se breeding alone would command him a big season in any pare of the wot I'd. Piscatorious' first get when a yearling brought 250 guineas., He was shipped to Sydney to take part in the big two-year-old events of New South Wales and Victoria, and since he hn'led in Sydney he has been purchased at the high figure of 700 guineas by a well-known New Smith Wa-cs spor sman, After his pciformauce in the Hawkesbury Guineas in September the "Townfe Country Journal" stated that the owner of Kinjtfish had refused an offer of four figures for the colt, In speaking of this colt, the Australian sporting scribes always give him tec prefix of the "handsome" Kingiish, " Augur" in the " Australasian" says lie was not within 101b of his best form, when he raced in the A.J.C, Derby against Tris dent, In Hawkesßay Piscatorious has obtained Champion Frizes tv,o years in succession, and no matter what clas i of marc patronises hiin, the Breeder i 3 sure to pet something that will recoup him for his outlay, on account of his pureness of blood, size and substauce, His two-year-olds in flawkes Bay, out of average mares, cannot bo purchased under 00 guineas. Hermit is by Hcwminster, by Touchstone Blood will tell. Piscatorious has more pure Touchstone blood coursing through his veins than any other horse living. It is no idle boast to say that Piscatorious is the best bred sire south of the line, for undoubt edlyheis, and, moreover, he is in every respect what his pedigree would imply—a magnificent stamp of a thoroughbred racehorse, possessing great power, and full oi stout and fast blood. No doubt the Hou. J. White's big success is through keeping strictly to winning strains. The best horse he ever owned was

Trident, by Robinson Crusoe, by Angler, by Fisherman. Some sportsmen aver that it is " White's luck." It is no such thing. It is his sound scuse, and gooi judgment, that carrys that gentleman through. There is no secret in the matter, and lie knows that to breed winners, it is necessary to stick to winning families. In color I'iscatorious is a beautiful dark brown, with black points, standing 18 hands 2iu high, has a neat expressive head (never a neater or cleaner head set oa a neck), indicative of a guod temper. His neck is long and miucular, with windpipe well detached; his shoulders are deep and well laid back, and good enough for anything. He's a graud topped'un. Piscatorial* hurt himself in a wire fence whtn a youngster, and from the effects of this accidentia has always suffered more or less during the whole lime he wits training, Despite all the e drawbacks, when a tlneeycarold, he started in fourteen races, won nine, and ran sccoiul twice.
