In the United States of America, Mr. A. Belmont, 

 jun., has not only got together a fine kennel, but in 

 addition he imported a clever English manager, German

 satisfactorily, until he sought a wider range for his abilities. 

 The Messrs. Rutherford, New York ; Mr. E. J. Thayer, 

 and others in the States and Canada, have followed Mr. 

 Belmont's example, whilst Australia and New Zealand 

 have proved themselves thoroughly English by their im- 

 portations of fox terriers, and in due course we may 

 expect to find these colonies throwing down the gauntlet 

 to the old country in friendly rivalry on the show bench, 

 as they have done with such success in the cricket field 

 and on the water. Our French, Belgian, and German 

 friends have also taken kindly to the little dog, and at 

 many of the continental shows specimens of more than 

 average merit are continually met with, and often an 

 Englishman is asked over to judge them. Perhaps the 

 name of Mrs. Hoogeveen Van Walchren, of the Hague, 

 Holland, deserves special mention, for that lady has got 

 together an excellent collection of terriers, which she 

 is not afraid of pitting against the best of this country, and 

 at times this has been done with a considerable amount of 

 success. 



In America and Canada, pedigree is as highly valued as 

 it is here, as will be inferred from the following story :
