Henderson's Windmill The fashionably - bred and very superiot Thorough-bred Horse PE R T O B j Eminently suited for getting Handsome Weight-carrying Hacks, atj Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brom Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, 1569. Got by Panic (imported); his Hester Grazebroolc, by The Premier (it ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delapri ji ; , ported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs; by Wanderer (imported).—See ~ Viclcrisi Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. Ift. Panic' in, ported from England to Tasmania, and pti to the stud at, 3 yrs. old. He wasj traiurf and raced at 4, and again put to the stni When he was 6 yrs. old, he was' pWchastJ at a high price and imported to -Victorii, : where he had two more seasons' training and racing. He proved himself the best linglish horse ever trained in • Australia He ran remarkably well, and won seven! races, carrying heavy weights ; he was both speedy and staying, of a most docilo and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and lags like iron. Like his sire, that llrstclass English racehorse Alarm, "he to never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the atod, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by maoj iirst-class mares, he has got more winnen out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vic. toria, and for general purposes his stock ii much esteemed.

In the breeding of PERTOBE tliero is i combination of some excellent 1 strains blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, that famous line through Defence, a which comes to him on the sides of boft sire and dam. On his sire Pajiio's there is, as well as his good Defence blood, that of the game and stout "Venison, tot powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, moil excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tb> value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniably having furnished so many proofs, not aloe as to its being speedy and staying, but alt to its 'training on,' and being essentiallyi ' running strain for although some otha occasionally produce one or two first-da animals, few, if any, can compete m Pantaloon as to numbers. A Very grand > commendation of this strain of blood is, tit it mixes successfully with, and improves, il others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, an' other good turf authorities agree with hii to the same effect. On the side < the dam of Pertobb there is a lot ( good blood coming in through. The Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was bj" Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-class racer, bat also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the present time, viz., the Newminsters). The Dalapri blood is also very good indeed. Delaprf's dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the damoi the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs. Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pertobl) was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood ii good, he being by Wanderer, by GohannJ, by Mercury, by Eolipse. In Tasmania, so much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer was never known," and if they can trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient.
