were Tcry tcood, Mr. Boyle, of DnUin, being the cwp-winuer. Kr. 

 Fletcher, of Mauchester, took both tirst and aecond prizes in all the 

 Game classes, with birds most nucxceptiouable in oarriage, colour, 

 and last, though not least, condition. Hav>hnr(jhs were capital. In 

 these classes, as in many other varieties, two hens were occasionally 

 sent instead of one, as stipulated by the Walsall prize schedule. It 

 really appears as thouf^h some of our readers pay little attention to 

 the requirements of each particular show, though we have mentioned 

 so particularly and so often that non-compliance with these is a fatal 

 objection. The proper number of hens, oiio or more, must be sent ; 

 a hen too few, or one too many, is a " disqualification." The 

 Bantamn, Turbi/s, the Fancy varieties of Dui/:-'^\ and the Selling 

 classes were uniformly excellent. The attendance of visitors was very 

 good.
