STALLIONS TO STAND THIS SEASON, At the Windsor Park Estate, near Oamam, THE PURE-BRED CLYDESDALE STALLION )RI NC E VICTOR. PRINCE VICTOR is a 1 emtiful, thickset, stont-hearted, d'rk-l>"iwn stallion, ratbcr under than over IK !::»nds 3 inches, bred by John Heud-.r.-•■>!. K 0., Parkmanis, was got by Pr.nc" <■: >'• :il s. The illustrious Btud horse of L. J'rew, Esq., Merryton out of Rosie, a mare belonging to an exceedingly favorable strain of blood, and is one of the finest and most perfect mares that ever looked through a bridle. She sained many first prizes, and at Maryhill, won second honors as a brood maro in a competition that was open to all Scotland. Kosic was got by the famous horse Victor, tho winner of firei prizes at Gatehouse of Fleet, Stranwaer, Kirkubright, and Wigtownshire, and in 186*, won second prize at the Highland Society's Show at Stirling, and was afterwards sold to go to Australia. The great breeding linos of Prince Victor ire thd Hoe combinations of the Prince of Wales* blood crossed with that of Victor's, which trace back uninterruptedly to the Colomba Stock of 1535. Eosie' granddam was Jean, the dam of Disraeli, who, when a 2-year-old, won first prizes at the Highland Society's Show, held at Glasgow in I bin ; and as a 3-year-old, he won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Show of IS7G. Prince Victor last year could boast of four winners at the different shows, local and district performances, such as these, also his pedigree—ancestry• 'hining with the names of the founders of what is known as the Victor breed, should not fail to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims as a aire. He is a horse of great substance and power, has many points of great excellence to recommend him aa a breeder, qualities which are inherent in the Clydesdale character of the modern school; also, has a large share of his sire's good qualities, the full and perfect image of that which may be regarded as a specimen of the genus, and which is virtually extinct in Victoria since the death of Mr. L'ox's "exceptionally grand horse, Prince of Wales." There is not too much of him, perhaps, but his make, shape, and blood are the surest test of excellence. His fine legs, strong and great bone, and (lowing with nice hair—the true badg-; of a well-bred Clydesdale—and if his sire is a landmark of the anci< nt state of things, Prince Victor is the epitome of the new. and one of the mo3t compact and fashii.nal>lo horses to be seen. Terms—Ten Guineas. Payable on the Ist February. Groom's Fee, ss. Paddocking free for one month, after which 2s (jtl per week will be charged. _ Every care taken, but no responsibility. E.
