Henderson's, Windmill The fashionably - bred and very superior Thorough-bred Horse PE R T O , B E, Eminently suited for getting Hunters, Handsome Weight-carrying Hacks, and Horses suitable for the Indian- Market. PERTOBE is & beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, In 1869. Got by Panic (imported); hiß dam, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (imported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprg (im» Eorted); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberts, y Wanderer (imported). —See Victoria Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. Ifl. Panic. was im-. ported from England to Tasmania, and put to the stud at 3 yrs. old. Ho was trained and raced at 4, and again put to the stud. When he was 6 yrs. old, he Was purchased! at a high price and imported to Victoria, ■where ne nad two more seasons' training and racing. He proved himself the b&t English horse ever trained in Australia. He ran remarkably well, and won several races, oarrying heavy weights; he was both speedy and staying, of a most dooile and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution,, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firstclass 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 Elace, he has not been favored by many rat-class mares, he has got more winners out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vio» toria, and for general purposes his Btock is muoh esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is a combination of some exoellent strains of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone,. in that famous line through Defenoe, and which comes to him on the sides of both sire and dam. On his aire Panic's side: there is, as well as his good Defence blood,, that of the game and stout Venison, the: powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, mosfe excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " Tha value of the Pantaloon blood iB undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alona as to its being speedy and staying, but also to itß 'training on,' and being essentially a ' running strainfor although some others occasionally produce one or two first-class animals, few, If any, can compote with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand recommendation of this strain of blood is, that, it mixes successfully with, and improves, all others." Thus writes Copperthwaito, anik other good turf authorities agree witih him. to the same effeot. On the side oft the dam of Pertobk there is a lot o£ good blood ooming in through The Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the dam of the mare Beeswing, oelebrated not only as a first-class racer, but also as the maternal anceßtresa of England's very best family of racehorsos at the presont time, viz., the Newminsterß). The Oelaprd blood ia also very good indeed. DelapWs dam, Fortress, by Defenoe, was the dam of the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mr*, Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pertqkb* was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood ia good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohanna,, byjMercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so> much is the wanderer blood thought of,, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer waa never known," and if they can trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient.

As a sire of good, sound, and useful stook he has never had an equal in the Southern hemisphere. His viotory in the Launceston Champion Raoe, and the style in which he carried lOst. into second place in the Melbourne Cup, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of his stock has become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the ancient Strop .who won a race at Launceston in February, is a living example. Few horses have gone through such an ordeal as , Melbourne, another son at present performing at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers ia undoubtedly Lone and he is also a son of Panic. P M »nqy» Postman, Prodigious, and many other good cross country horses, too numerous to men* fcion, are also descendants of the son oi Alarm." _ _ rermß: L 5 ss, payable Ist of ,1880.
