STALLIONS O STAND THIS SEASON OAMARU DISTRICT, AND AT MR. PATER SON'S PRIVATE RESIDING K, OAMAUU, The Fashionably-bred and very Superior Thoroughbred Horse P K R T OB E, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, in ISG9. By Panic (imported) out of Hester Grazebrook, by the Premier (imported), out of Miss Napier, by Delapre (imported), out of Mrs. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported); Panic, by Alarm, out of Queen of Beauty, by Melbourne out of Eirthday, by Pantaloon out of Honoria, by Camel, &c., &c. Pertubk is a daik bay horse, 7 years old, standing 15 hands 3 inches high, with great length, substance, and quality, and was one of the fastest horses that ever raced in Victoria. The fact that he has got Ftuitaloon blood in his veins is a great recommendation, for it is questionable if better flows in any animal's; the very best runners and the grandest specimens of the thoroughbred are descended Irom Pantaloou, w hose blood cannot be excelled. The value of Pantaloon blocrd is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alone as to speed and staying, but also as a running strain, for although some others occasionally produce one or two first-cla-s animals, still, few can compete with that in question as to number. For high breeding, good true racing action, honesty and gameness, with speed of remarkable brilliancy, Pertobk has no equal, and Thoroughbred Mares put to him should breed good racehorses. IN THE

"* c Pf< "Augur," writing in the Australasian of the 4th of August last, says : " Several more thoroughbred "ires have been advertised, and, if placed according to merit, Panic certainly deserves the premier position, for there can be no disputing that he is the most useful of all the sires in Australia ; and being so, the question arises, Is he not the most valuable ? He may not have procluced such brilliant horses as some of our crack sires, but for the production of every description, he has no tq»al. Nimblefoot, Strop, Melbourne, Adelaide, and others, have placed many a good flat race to his credit; Prodigious, Lone Hand, Saucepan, Quicksilver, and many others, have shown us what his descendants are capable of over a Country ; and for general purjroses they are unsurpassed, as they inhr-rit all their sires soundness of wind and Jiuib. Mr. 'iait has often told* me that the best constitutioned horse he ever owned was Melbourne ; and this being one of the chief characteristics of Panic's stock, he is well worthy of liberal patronage from breeders.''
