Henderson's Windmill The fashionably - bred and very superior Thorough-bred Horse PERT O BE, Eminently suited for getting Hunters, Handsome Weight-carrying Hacks, and Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOBE is a beautiful, dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 handß high, . Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Viotoria, In 1869. Got by Panio (imported); his dam, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (im. ported), out of Miss Napier, by DelapnS (im. ported); Miss Napier'b dam, Mrs. Koberts, by Wanderer (imporfced)i See Victoria Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. 47. Panio was imported from England to Tasmania, and put to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He waß trainedi 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 had two more seasons' training and racing. He proved himself the boat English horse ever trained in Australia, He ran remarkably well, and won soveral races, carrying heavy weights'; he was both speedy and staying, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firstclass English raoehorse Alarm, "he waa never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the stud, although from being in an ont»o£-4tae-way jjlaoe, he has not been favored by many first-class mares, he has got more winners* out of half-bred ones than any horse in Yi<K toria, and for general purposes his stook isi much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is, » combination of Bome excellent strains of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone* in that famous line through Defouco, and which comeß to him on the sides of both sire and dam. On his Bird Panic's side there is, as well as hia good Defence blood, that of the game and stout Venison, th& powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most; excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " The. value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable* having furnished so many proofß, not alone, as to its being speedy and Btaying, hut also* to its 'training on,' and being essentially & ' running strainfor although some others; occasionally produce one or two first-classi animals, few, if any, can compete 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 Copperthwaite, and other good turf authorities agree with him to the same effeat. On the side of the dam of Pertobe there iB a lot o! good blood coming in through The Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardroßsan mare (the dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-olass racer,' but also as the maternal anoestress o£ England's very best family of racehorses att tube present time, viz., the Newminsters)> The Delaprd. blood is also very good indeed. Dolapr&'st dam, Fortress, by Defence, waa the damo§ the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs., Roberts, the great grand-dam of was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's Wood isi good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohanna,, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, ao» much is the Wanderer blood thpught of,, that they say " a bad one by Wanderpr waa< never known," and if they can trap.e a.podi-. gree to a Wanderer mare, they consider thaft quite sufficient.

As a airo of good, sound, and useful stook he has never had an equal i» the Southern hemisphere. His viotory in the" Launceaton Champion Race, and the style in which he carried lOst. into second place in the Melbourne Chp, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exaoting that he was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of his stock h** become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the ancient Strop who won a raoe at Launceaton in February, is a living example. Few horses have gone through such an ordeal as Melbourne, another son at present per* forming at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand, and he is also a son of Panio, P°stboy» Postman, Prodigious, and many other goal oross country horses, too numerous to men» tion, are aUo descendants of the son os Alarm."
