TO TRAVEL THIS SESON IN THE PAPAKAIO, WAIAREK DISTRICTS. And will stand at J. Henderhon'r Windmill . Tho Fashionably-bred and very Superior Thoroughbred Horso PE R TO B E, cminontly suited for getting Hunters, Handsomo Weight - carrying Hacks, and Horac* suitable for tho Indian market. PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing ) 6 hands high. Bred by H, Pnillips, Esq., Victoria, in 1869. Got by Panic (imported) ; his dam, Hester Grazobrook, by tho Premier (imported), out of Miss Napier by Dolapr6 (imported) ; Miss Napier's dam Mrs Roberts, by Wanderer (imported).— See Victoiian Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. 47. Panic vas imported from England to Tasmania, and put to tho stud at 3 yrs. old. Ho wat trained and raced at 4, and again put to tho stud. Whon ho was 6 yrs. old, no was puuhased at a high price, and imported to Victorm, whero lie had two moio seasons' training and racing. Ho proved hiuißclf tho best English horso ever trained in Auvtrnlia. Ho ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy woighta ; ho was both speedy and staying, of a most docile, and quite temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his siro, that fiibtclass English racohorso Alarm, '• he was nover sick, sorry, or lamo," and retired from tho turf without a blemish. At tho stud, although from being in an out-of-tho way place, ho ha* not beeu favored by many firbt-class mares, he has got moro winnors out of half-bied ones than any horao in Victoria, and for gcueral purposes his stock is much esteemed, In tho breeding of PERTOBE thoro is a combination of some excellent strain* of blood, such as tho Waxy-Whalebono, in that famous lino through Dofemo, and which comes to him on tho side* of both airo and dam. On his siro Panic's side thoro is, as well as his good Dofonoo blood, that of tho gamo and stout Venison, tho powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excollent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tho valuo of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proof*, not alono as to ita buing speedy and staying, but also to its "training on," and being essentially a "tunning sti am "; for although some others occßKionally produce ono or two first-class animals, few, if any, can compote with Pantaloon for numbers. A vory grand recommendation of this strain of blood is thai it mixes successfully with, and improves all othors," Thus writes Copperthwaito, and other good tuif authorities agrco with him to tho samo effect. On tho side of tho dam of Pkrioiie tlioio is a lot of good blood coming in through Tho Premier, whoso grandsiio, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of tho Ardrossan maro (tho dam of the maro Boeßwing, celebrated not only as a first-clasn racer, but also as tho matornal ancestress of England's vory bost family of racehorses at tho present timo, viz., tho Newmiustois) TK» t>oltvpri> Mood i» «1*» vo.y fl° n 'l itulooil Delapro"s dam, Fortress, by Dofcnco, was tho dam of tho Dorby winnor, Pyrrhus thn First. Mrs Roberts, tho great grand-dam of Pkrtobk, was by Wandorer, and Wandorer'B blood is good, ho being by Wanderer, by Gohanna, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so much is tho Wandorer blood thought of, that thoy say " a bad ono by Wanderer was nover known," and if thoy can traco a pedigrco to a Wandorer marc, they considor that quito sufficient, PERTOBE, by _!_ „ !
