He was trainod and raced at 4, and again put tq the stud. When he was 6 yrs. old, he was purchased ait a high price and imported to Viotoria, Where he had two more seasons' training and racing.!,'.; -fife.., proved, ; hjjnßelf, the jbeaS English horse ever trained in' Abaft-alin, He ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weights; hia was/both speedy and staying, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful panstitution, and legs like iron. Like his siroj that first., class English racehorse Alarm, "he waa never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a;;.blemish. ,At the stud, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not pjeenfavored by many first-class mares, he has got fri'oref winuera out of half-bred ones than any horse in Viotoria, and for general purposes his stook is touch esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is % combination of some excellent strains of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, it) 'that famous line through Dofonoo, and which comes to him on the sides at both sire and dam. On his sirs Panio's sid<j there is, as well as his goad-Defence blood, that of the game and stout Venison, tho powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tho value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so. many proofs, not alona as to its being speedy and, staying, but alao to its 'training on,'and being essentially a ' running strain j'. for although some otnera occasionally produce one or two first-claaq. animals, few, If any, . can compete''ytylll Pantaloon as to numbers. A very commendation of this strain of blcm ia, thai) it mixes successfully with, aud WPffOveß, ftlj others." Thus writes Cft|®erthwaitei and other good turf authorities agree with him to the sstms effcoi;. 0® the side <4 the dam cifv thei;?,. is -a, lot of good blood coining in through The 'Pjpq< mier, whose grandaire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardrosaan mare (the dam of the mare Beeswiiig,' celebrated not only as a first-class racer, but also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the time, viz., the Newminsters), Th«( Dolapr4 blood is also very gocjd indeed* dam, Fortress, by the Derby Pyrrhus the First. Mr*, Robeytq, the great gjpand-.dam <4 PwiVVOftS, was % Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood is good, being by Wanderer, by Gohanna, by Mercury, by Eolipse.

As a sire of good, Bound, and useful stook he has never. Jh»d an, jequal in the Southern hemisphere. His viotory in the. Launceston Champion Race, and the style in which h<a carried lOst. into second place in the Melbourne Cap, were perform* ances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he-was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of. his stook has become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the ancient Strop'who Won' a raco at Launceston in February, is a living example. Few horses have gone through suoh an ordeal as Melbourne, another son at present performing at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly libne Hand, and he is also a son of ; Panio. Postboy. Postman, Prodigious, and many other good cross country horses, too numerous to men* tion, are also descendants of the Bon of Alarm.". . Terms ! Ls' ss, payable Ist- of ' January, 1880.
