PRINCE VICTOR is a beautiful, thickset, stout-hearted, ... dark-brown . stallion, rather under than over 16 hands 3 inches, 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 moat perfect mares that ; ever looked through a bridle.. ■. She gained many first 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 _Wigtown shire, 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 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 1855., Rosie' 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 1875 ; and as a 3-year-old, he. won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Show of 1576. ■ Prince Victor last year could boast of four winners at the different shows, local and district performances, such as the3e, also his pedigree—ancestry, shining 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. He 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 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, Cox's "exceptionally grand horse, Prince of Wales." There it not too much of him, perhaps, but his make, shape, and blood- are the surest test ol excellence. His fine legs, strong and greal bone, clean, and flowing with nice hair—tht true badge of a well-bred Clydesdale—anc if his sire is a landmark of the ancient state of things, Prince Victor is the epitome o1 the new. and one of the mo3t compact anc fashionable horses to be seen, Terms—Ten Guineas.
