P PRINCE VICTOR is a beautiful, thickset, stout-hearted, dark-brown stallion, rather under than over 16 hands 3 in'-he?, bred by John Henderson, Esq., Parkmanis, was 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 blood, and is one of the finest and most perfect mares that ever looked through a bridle. She gained many firat prizes, and at Maryhill, won .second' honors as a brood mare in a competition that was open to all Scotland. Rosie was got by the famous horse Victor, the winner of first prizes at Gatehouse of Fleet, Stranwaer, Kirkubright, and Wigtownshire, and in ISfit, won second prize at the Highland Society's Show at Stirling, snd 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 1835. Rosie' granddam wa3 Jean, the dam of Disraeli, who, when a 2-year-old, won first prizes at the Highland Society's Show, held at Glasgow in 1575 ; and as a 3-year-old, lie won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Show of 1576. Prince .Victor last year could boast of four winners at the different show?, locsl and di-rtriei: performances, such r.3 these, also his pedigreed-ancestry, shining with the nan.es of the founders of what is known as the Victor brr-ed, should not fa : l. to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims ai a sire. Be is a lior3e of great substance and j.ower, has many points of great excellence to recommend him as a breeder, qualities wliich are inherent in the Clydesda'e character of the modern school; also, has a hrgrj share of his sire's good qualities, the full and perfect imago of that which may be regarded as a specimen of the genus, and which is virtually extinct iu Victoria since the death of Mr. Cox's "exceptionally grand horse, fringe of Wales." There is not too much of him, perhaps, but his make, shape, and blood are the surest test of excellence. Di-i fine legs, strong and great bone, .clean, and flowing with nice hair—the true badge 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 tho mo3t compact and fashionable horses to be seen.
