"Touchstone —the renowned "founder of a line of kings"—who was '' directly descended on both sides by Eclipse y —through Whalebone, Waxy, and Pot-S-os 1 on the side of his sire (Camel), and through Master Henry, Orville, Bcningbrough, and 0 King Fergus on the side of his dam (Ban- " tor)."thus tracing back in direct lines to !' both the Darley and Godolphiu Barbs. ' f The winnings of the stock of his great > progenitors, Eclipse and Emilus, were surpassed by Touchstone. In twenty years, 11 between 1841 and 18G0, he got 323 winners " of upwards of 700 races. , ' s DERBY. 3 YEAR. J TVINXEK. SIJVE. c i [1 1781 J Young Eclipse Eclipse n 1733 j Saltram „ g 1781 !

' TO STAND THIS SEASON AT KAIKO.RA BRIDGE. «< ThcThoroughbredllor.se— vj p'Hhltlt empleton. Ton 11 ton was bred by Mr. Murtagh, of Hiwkes Bij He is a dark bay, with Hi k p nits He is three years old, stands 1 ) h aids I inches high, and possesses all the essential qualifications of a sire, namely, good constitution, temper, substance, strength, quality, and vigor. He is admirably adapted for getting weight carriers, coach horses, as well as racehorses, as he surpasses everything yet seen in New Zealand for size and strength, combined with the best blood that ever ilowcd in a horse's veins. He is by Danebury, out of Phoenix. Danebury is by the far-famed Traducer, dam Ada, winner of the Canterbury Derby, by St. Auburyn, sire of Tui Tui, llarakeke, and dams of Kakapo, Karara, Perfume, Ariel, &c, grand dam Princess by Glausus, sire by Diana, dam of that wonderful marc Mussidora, who produced the following horses:—Miss Jessie, winner of Victorian V.R.C.

It is sufficient to mention the name of Traducer, as ho got the best horses ever bred in New Zealand, namely, Lurline, Calumny, Le Loirp, Fish-hook, Templeton, Maritana, Bribery, To Whetumarama, Black Prince, Sir Modrcd and a host of others too numerous to mention. Ada's dam Pi'inces is also dam of Glaukos, Potentate, Symphony, dam of Lacenfeed-Casandra, dam of Opera, winner of the Canterbury Derby and dam of that good old horse Tambourine. Coupled with the above Danebury, sire of Templeton, has been a great performer on the turf, having beaten the best horses which New Zealand could then produce.
