confeaa a preference for that gentleman's Silver Dan. Long- 

 faced were very good and well placed; and English Owls a 

 grand clasa. After this point the birds were judged under great 

 disadvantage, it being dark, and the hall had to be lighted. 

 There were three classes for Turbits, and these well filled, and 

 some exquisite birds were shown. Long-faced Tumblers were 

 also provided with three classes, and these were very good, 

 especially the Mottles in the Variety clasa. Frillbacks had also 

 a class, and here Mr. Ord waa to the front with some grand 

 birds ; we think and hope with those that were lost in transit 

 from the Washington Show. Nuns were all Black ; but in 

 Magpies the first was Yellow, second Ked, and third Black. In 

 the next class Mr. Yardley won the cup with his Satinette, the 

 second going to an Ice, and third to Turbiteens. There were 

 some good birds in the Selling classes ; but these were not pro- 

 portionately large with the poultry classes. 



The show of Cage Birds was large and good. 



Lop-eared Babbits were but moderate, but the variety good, 

 but many pens were empty in this section, no doubt on account 

 of the intense cold. 



Cats were provided with two classes, and the entries very 

 good ; but the Long-haired were but moderate in quality. In 

 the Variety class were some handsome Cats; the first a Silver- 

 Grey Tabby; second Tortoiseshell of fair quality; and third 

 Black, many others being noticed, and an extra prize awarded. 

 These were mostly by local exhibitors, and they were certainly 

 a great credit to the exhibitors.
