JOUKNAL OF HORTICULTURE AND COTTAGE GARDENER. 



t September 10, 1868. 



port were, as a mle, of the highest order, anil the condition of the 

 generality of them was exceedingly good. The Duke of Newcastle 

 exhibited half a dozen peus, which were especifilly remarkable for tirst- 

 rate condition. The Cochins were very excellent, and the competition 

 in the Brahma classes was severe. The Ifanihur(/7i classes proved to 

 be a chief feature of the Exhibition ; and for Turl'tys^ Ocese, and 

 Duels few shows can bear favourable comparison with that held at 

 Southport. The whole show of Piffcons was excellent ; and its 

 popularity was evidenced by the crowded state of this portion of the 

 showyard immediately it was opened to the public, and the atten- 

 dance never flagged throughout the whole time the birds were on view. 

 The weather was most favourable.
