 hen ami the. common wild Pheasant, which were exceedingly tame, 

 attracted mnch attention, ami they were sent in good condition. The 

 collection of Pigeons, though not large, was very good, and the show 



, ' : i was a great feature. 



The weather, which at first promised heavy rain, cleared oil into a 

 fine continuous sunshine The Port-mouth population evidently feel 

 a deep interest ia their Show, and a; luckily they possess an active, 

 really pp&hing Committee, its continued Bnccees may be guaranteed.

NANTWICH POULTRY SHOW. 



Frou the fact that this Show, which took place on tie -1th and oth 

 inst., was held almost immediately after the Crewe Show, and that the 

 Exhibition at Wolverhampton occurred simultaneously, it is a matter 

 of congratulation to find, that the entries were tolerably near in 

 numbers to those of a long succession of years past. A few of the 

 classes were very liirited in the number of entries, though, singularly 

 enough, even in these the quality was quite equal to that of prize 

 birds in general. This remark particularly applies to the Spanish, 

 Tin-leys, Geoee, and Ducks. Grey Borkmgs and Cochins, though 

 choice, were also very few in number. The heaviest entry, as is 

 always the case at Nanttvich, was in the Game classes, and although 

 hitherto this locality has been so noted for the very best of Game
