See Vk Stud Booh, Vol. 11., p. 47. Panic wj ported from England to Tasmania, aw to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was ti] and raced at 4, and again put to the i When he was C yrs. old, he was purcl at a high price and imported to Vici whore .10 had two more seasons' tni and racing. Ho proved himself the English horse ever trained in Außtn He ran remarkably well, and won sit r.iees, carrying heavy weights ; ho was 1 speedy and staying, of a most docile quiet temper, with a wonderful coustituti and legs like iron. Like his siro, that f class English racehorse Alarm, "he i never sick, sorry, or lame," and retiredfc the tui-t without a blemish. At tho tfe although from being iu an out-of-tho*i place, he has not been favored by mj tirst-elass mares, he has got more winie out of half-bred ones than any horse in Ti toria, and for general purposes his stock much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there in combination L ,of some excellent straini blood, such as tho Waxy-Whalobono, that famous line through Defence, u which conies to him on the sides of W sire and dam. On his siro Panic's a there is, as well as his good Defence Woo that of the game and stout Vemßoti, (i powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, m. excellent of all, that of Pantaloon, "li value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniat!' having furnished so many proofs, not alo as to its being speedy and staying, but i to its ' training on,' and being essentially ' running strain ;' for although some othi occasionally produce one or two first-cli animals, few, if any, can coinpeto wi Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grandj commendation of this strain of blood is, t| it mixes successfully with, and improves, others." Thus writes Coppert/juvirtc, ai other good turf authorities agree with hii to the same effect. On the aide I tho dam of Pertobe there vs a. V>t \ good blood coming in through 'lho Vr inier, whose graudsire, Tomboy, was 1 Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (tl dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrati not only as a first-class racer, b also as the maternal ancestress of England very best family of racehorses at the presei time, viz., the Newminsters). The Delap: blood is also very good indeed. Debprt dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dami tho Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mb Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pkrtok was by Wanderer, and^Wanderer's blood i good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohara by Mercury, by Eclipse. Iu Tasmania, I much is the Wanderer blood thought tl that they sav " a bad one by Wanderer in never known," and if they can trace a pa gree to a Wanderer mare, they consider tit quite sufficient. PERTOBE, by " Augur," in the Australasian, 187S, says :—" I could fill the with the doings of " Panic," and hi&»*. cendant3. As a siro of good, sousd, * useful stock lie has never had an «<!<"' : the Southern hemisphere. His victoij!" the Launce3ton Champion Race, and "J style in which he carried lQst. into s«<* place in the Melbourne Cup, were P ances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy 1 * I most exacting that he was a racehorse « mean order. The soundness of his become a proverb on the Australian >®\ j and the ancient Strop who won a race Lauuceston in February, is a living exa "y Few horses have gone through such an oro*£ as Melbourne, another son at present p*jj forming at Queensland. The greatest ot steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lono ij* and he is also a son of Panic. ? oit 3 Postman, Prodigious, and many other g cross country horses, too numerous to w tion, are also descendants of the son Alarm." rf Terms: L 5 ss, payable Ist of {«"«"• 1579.
