PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brow* Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by 11. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, 1569.

J{t. Panic was i ported from England to Tasmania, aud j.., to tho stud at 3 yra. old. He was trains and raced at 4, and again put to the stud. When he was 6 yrs. old, he was pui-chasej at a high price and imported to where he had two more seasons' trait®; and racing. Ho proved himself the i English horse ever trained in Auatralu, He ran remarkably well, and won seven! races, carrying heavy weights ; he waabotl speedy and staying, of a most docile at( quiet temper, with a, wonderful constitution and legs like iron. Like his sire, that lint, class English racehorse Alarm, "liawa never sick, sorry, or lame," and retiredfroa the turf without a blemish. At the stud, S although from being in an out-of-the-wj place, he has not been favored by nianj lirst-class marcs, ho has got more wiiw® out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vic. toria, and for general purposes his stock is much esteemed.

In the breeding of PERTOBE thero ij| combination of some excellent strains blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in that famous line through Defence, »:J which comes to him on the sides of sire and dam. On his sire Panic's em thero is, as well as his good Defence blooi, that of tho game and stout Venison, tb powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, mti excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " Tfci value of the Pantaloon blood is undeuiab!-, having furnished so many proofs, not ale as to its being speedy and staying, but s!s (> its ' training on, 1 and being essentialki running strain foy although some ot£j occasionally produce one or two iirst-a animals, few, if any, can compete a Pantaloon as to numbers. A very gratf.j commendation of this strain of blood is,a it mixes successfully with, and improves,! others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, c other good turf authorities agree with b to the same effect. On the sido the dam of Pkivioue there is a lot good blood cowling in through The ft inier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, m»j| Jerry, out of the Ardrossan main dam o I the mare Beeswing, Celebris} not only as a lirst- class racer, k also as the maternal ancestress of Engladi very best family of racehorses at the preset! time, viz., the Newminstcrs], The Uelapri blood is also very good indeed. Delapiii dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the daw the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. M» Roberts, tho great grand-dam of PEHTOHi, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's liloodu good, lie being by Wanderer, by Golianii, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, b mueli is the Wanderer blood thought oi, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer n never known," and if they can trace ape* gree to a Wanderer mare, they consider tb quite sufficient.
