M, MOSS & CO., Wynyard Lane, Sydney; 10 Market Buildings, Melbourne. STALLIONS TO" STAND THIS SEASON, At the Windsor Park Estate, near Oamaru, THE PURE-BRED CLYDESDALE STALLION RINCE VICTOR. PRINCE VICTOR is a beautiful, thickset, stout-hearted, dark-brown stallion, rather under than over 16 hands 3 inohef, bred by John Henderson, Esq,, Parkmauis, waa got by Prince of Wales. The illustrious stud horse of L. Drew, Esq., Merryton out of Rosie, a mare belonging to an exceedingly favorable strain of bloot}, and is one of tne finest and moat perfect mares that ever looked through a bridle. She gained many first prizes, and at MaryhiU, won second honors as a brood mare in a competition that was open to all Scotland. Kosie was got by the famous horse Victor, the winner of first prizes at Gatehouse of Flaat. Stramvaer, Kirkubright, and Wigtownshire, and in 18(51, >'on second pnae at the Highland Society's Show at Stirling, and was afterwards sold to go to Australia. The great breeding lines of Prince Victor are the fine combinations of the Prince of Wales' blood crossed with that of Victor's, which trace . back uninterruptedly to the Colomba Stock of 1535. Rosie' granddam was JeaD, the dam of Disraeli, who, when a 2-year-old, won first prigas at the Highland Society's Show, held at Glasgow in 1875 ; and as a 3-year-old, he won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Shew AGENTS: DALGETY, NICHOLS, & CO. DPITEDIIf. 558 of 1876.

Prince Victor last year could boast of four y/inners at the different shows, local and district performances, such as these, also his pedigree—ancestry, tljining 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 sire.

Ee is a horse of great substance and power, has many points of great excellence to recommend him as a breeder, qualities •which are inherent in the Clydesdale character of the modern school; also, has a largo share of his sire's good qualities, the fall 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. Cox'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. Hi- fine legs, strong and great bone, clean, and flowing with nice hair—the true badge of a weJI-bred Clydesdale—and if his sire is a landmark of the ancient state of things, Prince Victor is the epitome of the new. and one of the most compact and fashionable horses to be seen.
