PEIiTOBK is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 1G hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, in 1569. Got by Panic (imported) ; his dam, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (imported), out of Miss Napier, by DelapriS (imported) ; Miaa Napier's dam, Mrs. Ttilicrt? by Wanderer (imported).—See Victorian Stud Book, Vol. 11., 11. Panic was imported from England to Tasmania, aud put to the stud at 8 yrs. old. ITe was trained aud raced ;vt 4, and again put to the stud. When ho was 6' yrs. old, he was purchased at a high price and imported to Victoria, where ho had two more seasons' training' and racing. Ha proved himself the best English horse ever trained in Australia, He ran remarkably well, and won several races, carry-las; heavy weights ; ho was both speedy aud staving, of a most doeilo and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, aud legs like iron. Like his sire, that lirstelass English racehorse .-Mann, "he was never sick, aorry, or lame," and retired from the tart' without « blemish. At the stud, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by mauy rirst-el.-i.-ss mares, he has got more winners out <>£ hali-bred ones than any horse in Victoria, anil for general pui-noses his stock is much esteemed..

lii the breeding of PERTOBE there is a combination of some excellent strains of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in th.it f:nuf.«a3 lino through Defence, and which comes to him on the sides of both sire and d:un. On his sire Panic's side thero is, as well as his good .Defence blood, that of the game and stout Venison, the powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "The value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alono' as to its being speedy and staying, but also to its ' training on,' anil being essentially a. • running strain for although some others occasinr.sUy inrrinso one or two virs'.-class any, can compete with l/ain'.:'.:;;n 'in numbers. A very grand rc. commendation of this str-iia. of blood is, that it lr.ixe:: successfully with, and improves, all others." Yhu« wr:tea C'jpnertinvaite, and other good tnrf sMifclioriiisr. agree with him to the ; fleet. On the side of the duni oi Pkkto.v.'.? iheve is a lot of good blood coming in through The Premier, whose grandsiro, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan maro (the dam of the mare -Beeswing, celebrated n:>t only as a first-class racer, hut also as the maternal rncestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the present time, viz., the ffewminstcrs). The Delaprf blood is also very good indeed. DelapriS's dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dam of the Derby winner, Pyrrlma the First. Mrs, L'oberts, the great grand-dam of PeiitoHK,. was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's Mood is good, lie being by Wanderer, by Go'nanna, by Mercury, by Kc!ip u e. In Tasmania, so much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say "a bad one by Wanderer im ne.'er known," and if they can tr"ce a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, tliey consider that .•mite sullicisjit, PEiITO.BE, by Pot - si Us,g S.S i s i H 3 "Augur," in the Australasian, June 15th 1878, say 3 :—" I cov.ld till the Australasian with the doings of "Panic," and his descendants. As a siro of good, sou ml, andi useful stock ho has never had an equal in the Southern hemisphere. His victory in* the Launceston Champion 11 ace, and the style in which he carried lOst. into second place in the Melbourne Cup, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that ho wa3 a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of his stock has become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the ancient f-;;';rop who won a race at Liumcestou in February, is a living example. Few horses have go;ae through such an ordeal as Melbourne, ano cher son at present performing at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand,, and ho is also a son of Panic. Postboy,. Postman, Prodigit us, and many other good, crocs country hones, too numerous to men--tion, are also d<-:;co!ulcut3 of the son ot Aiam." Terras : L 5 ss, Tjayablo Ist of January, ItiSO.
