SOUTHAMPTON POULTRY AND PIGEON 

 EXHIBITION. 



This Exhibition was held at the Carlton Rooms, Southampton, ou 

 Tuesday. Wednesday, and Thursday last, and as this was the first 

 time of holding a show of poultry in connection with the long-esta- 

 blished exhibition of Canaries and British and Foreign Birds, the 

 public interest was much augmented. No building could be named 

 more suitable for the purposes of such a meeting, as it is large, light, 

 and exceedingly well ventilated. The day of opening was unfor- 

 tunately most nnpropitious, for it rained incessantly from morning 

 nntU nightfall. It proved, in fact, just snchaday as prevented any one 

 from voluntarily seeking out-of-door pleasures, and as the Carlton 

 Rooms are situated some considerable distance fi'om the centre of 

 Southampton, the attendance was necessarily scanty. 



The SjitDu.sh cLiss was good, and the generality of the jjens shown 

 were in superior condition. The Dorhiinjs of all colours competed 

 together, some veiT excellent White ones in particular attracted the 

 attention of amateurs, but the chances of success when contesting 

 with Coloured Dorkings are sadly adverse to the White ones. A mar- 

 vellously good White Dorking cock was shown, but sni^eriug from 

 deeply-seated disease. The Buff and the Partridge -coloured Cochins 

 were far below the average of most local exhibitions ; the AVhite Cochins 

 were, however, much better. The Brahmas were a good class, but 

 beyond comparison the best pen was thrown out of competition from 

 containing a hen suffering from conhrmed vertigo. As usual, the 

 dark-feathered Brahmas were infinitely superior to those of light 

 colour. The Game classes did not prove of equal excellence to our 

 anticipations, want of condition being an almost universal failing. 

 Several exhibitors had evidently not paid any regard whatever to
