STALLIONS TO STAND THIS SEASON, At tho "Windsor Park Estate, near Oamarn, THE PURE-BRED CLYDESDALE STALLION pEI KC E VICTOR. PRINCE VICTOR is a 1 eiutiful, thickset, stout-hearted, <1 rk-1 rown stallion, rather under than rv«>- .-.ids 3 inches, bred by John was got by Priii'v: • : -1 s- The illustrious stud horse of J-- f'rcw, Esq., Merryton ont of Rosie, a ir.are belonging to an exceedingly favorable strain of blood, and is one of the finest ana most perfect mares that ever looked through a bridle. She gained many first prizes, and at Maryhill, Won second honors aa a brood mare in a competition that was open to all Scotland. Hosie was got by tho famous horse Victor, the winner of fir3t prizes at Gatehouse of Fleet, Stranwacr, Kirknbright, and Wigtownshire. and in IS6», won second prize at the Highland Society's ShoW at Stirling, and waa afterward? sold to go to_ Australia.

Prince Victor last year could boast of four winners at thp different shows, local and district performances, such as these, also his pedigree—ancestry, thining with the names of the founders of what is known as the Victor br-ed, should not fail to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims as a sire. He is a horse of great substance and power, has many points of great excellence to recommend him aa a breeder, (j-iajities which are inherent in the Clydcsda'.e character of the modern school; also, has a large share of his sire's good qualities, the full and perfect image of that which miy be regarded as a specimen of the geniiß, and which is virtually extinct in Victoria since the death of Air. Cox's "exceptionally grand horse, Prince of Wales." There is not too much of him, perhaps, but his make, sh&ne. blood are the surest test of excellence. fine legs, strong and great bone, cl<*an, and flowing y/ith nice hsir—the true badge of a well-bred Clydesdale—and if his sire is a landmark of the anci-nt state of tilings, I'rince Victor ia the epitome of the new. and one of tho most compact and fashionable horse 3 to bo seen. Terms —Ten Guineas. Payable on the Ist February. Groom's Fee, ss. Paddockiug free for one month, after which 2s Gd per week will be charged. _ Every care iaUtu, but no responsibility. " E.
