third a chicken. In hens the wiuner was a grand Gold, second 

 a good Silver, and third a fair Gold. In Pencils the cock class 

 was minus, the catalogue Btatiug that tliero was " no entry ;" 

 but this we know to be untrue, as we know of three being made; 

 if., however, saved the Committee the prize money. lu hens 

 first was a Golden pullet, and a very poor one too; eocond Mr. 

 Judson's well-known heu, worth fifty of the winner; and third 

 a Silver. In Polands first cock was a splendid fellow, and far 

 ahead. The winning hens were exquisite Silvers. Iq Houdans 

 first was a splendid bird, very dark and good all through ; se- 

 cond moderate, third good. Mr. Morris's bird was the finest of 

 all if we except a very large comb. In pullets Mr. Morris again 

 showed the finest, a great beauty. First wag superb iu colour 

 and size, second fair, third very dark and pood, legs black. 

 Cvi'vcs were a poor lot. In the Variety class first was a grand 

 Malay in each class, second cock a Brown Leghorn with a very 

 had comb, third a lar better White. Iu hens the White Leg- 

 horn was second and the Brown third; the latter was a fine 

 bird with a good earlobe, but her colour was decidedly improper. 

 In Game Bantams the cup Black Red was very good in colour 

 and style, as was the first Pile, although we preferred the second. 

 Pile hens were capital also. In the Sebiight class the first 

 cockerel (Silver) was a beauty, but he would be better for blacker 

 lacing. The cup hen was a gem. Blacks were a good lot, and 

 the Pekins shown were in nice order. Whi'e Ducks were a fair 

 lot, but Rouens not so fine as we have seen. In Blacks first 

 were the smallest, but second the best colour. In Fancy Ducks 

 first went to Autumalis, second to KaRtirkap, and third to 

 Malagas. This was a fine class, all beiog noticed. In the Adult 

 classes the winners were mostly well-known birds of the past 

 season. Dark Brahma hens were a good class, as were Lights, 

 but most of the birds were out of feather. 



In Figeons a splendid lot. The cup for Carriers went to 

 a grand wattled Black, second grand in eye, and third a nice 

 even bird. The first Dan was grand in eye and beak, second a 

 good bird rather bad in colour, third a Blue. Hens were superb 

 in both classes, the first Dun being rather flat in wattle. In 

 young birds first wa3 a beauty and most promising, being grand 

 in beak. The Pouter cup went to a fine Black, second and third 

 good Blues. The "White hen was good in limb and girth. Barbs 

 were a good lot ; first a Red, second a Black, and first a Yellow 

 iu hens. The first young Barb we did not like, it being too long 

 in beak. Almonds were a fine lot, as were Balds and Beards, 

 the first being a nicely-cut Bald. Roeewinga, Redbreasts, and 

 Mottles were a fine class, the winner being a Redbreast Muff 

 wonderfully cut. In Fantails the wiuner was an easy first, being 

 one of the best in head, neck, and carriage wo have seen. In 

 Jacks first was a Red, second a splendid Yellow with a better 

 hood. In Turbits first was not good in beak and inferior to the 

 second, and third Yellows. Mr. Dew's Silvers were clearly 

 ahead, his unnoticed being, however, the best in the class. Nuns 

 were a nice lot. The first English Owl was a beautiful headed 

 Silver. In Africans, the pen (Fulton) next the winner was far 

 ahead in size and beak, but unnoticed ; third was not good in 

 beak. Dragoons were grand classes, as were Antwerps. The 

 first Swallow was a delightful Yellow. Archangels were better 

 than usual, and the Variety class excellent, first being a lovely 

 Turbiteen, Mr. Ludlow's birds of this variety, his Damascenes 

 and Blondinettes, being very perfect and interesting.
