This well-known Stallion, bred by Thomas Morrin, one of the few remaining direct descendants of the great Musket, will stand the Season at Cambria Park, Papatoitoi, With few opportunities he has got several good horses, the latest successful performer being The Needle As a racehorse he showed himself to be one of the fastest horses in the colony by carrying a 101 b penalty and beating that great mare Mitrailleuse at weight for age, over her favourite distance of six furlongs. He was never beaten, but on one occasion got left at the post, and took no part in the race. Will serve a limited number of approved mares at £5 ss. E. A. PRICE, 12, Wyndham Street, or Papatoitoi.

mHE IMPORTED THOROUGHBRED STALLION T SOULT, Will stand this season at GLENLORA PARK STUD FARM, (NEAR AUCKLAND). SOULT is one of three St Simon stallions in New Zealand, and will serve a limited number of mares during the forthcoming season. His pedigree' must impress owners of mares having the stout Musket blood in their veins. The celebrated English mare La fleche, recently sold for 12,600 guineas, gave an example of the value of the St Simon —Musket cross. SOULT, amongst numerous races, won the Lane Stakes of 500sovs, Liverpool Stewards’ Stakes of 500sovs, Ovingdon Stakes of 250sovs, The Match (at Newmarket) of SOOsovs, and Brighton Plate of 150sovs. In these races he beat some of the best running in England, viz— Worcester (City and Suburban Handicap), Sylvanus, Fatherless (winner of Great Metropolitan), Simony, Son of o’ Gun, El Diablo, Perigord, Miss Butterwick (Oaks winner), Gang Awa (Goodwood Cup winner). Marcion, Portrush, and several others, and was a good performer at all distances. St Simon, the sire of Soult, is at the head, of winning sires in England, and the few sons of St Simon at the stud in England—St Serf, Haat Brion, and Adieu—have proved themselves winner-producers. In fact St Serf is second on the list of winning sires, his sire holding premier position. St Simon, the champion of England, being the sire of Soult, and this must impress upon owners of thoroughbred mares the advisability of making an early application for this valuable young and fashionable stallion’s services. ' ’ -

Beauhamais, dam of Soult, won several races at Newmarket, and is also dam of Barbelle. Wild Beauty,.The Beau, and Hortense, all winners. Her sire, See Saw, won twelve races, and her grandsire, Buccaneer, won fifteen races. Josephine, her granddam, was also a great winner. Inheritas, her great granddam, won forty-seven
