the committee are satisfied that they will, each and all, be 

 proud of the reward. 



In conclusion, the committee would suggest that, as there 

 is a small balance of cash on hand, some arrangement might 

 be made to invest it in the procurement of suitable cages for 

 the next exhibition, as, in many instances connected with the 

 former one, the lack of the proper means for the full display 

 of the beauties of the stock shown detracted from the character 

 of the exhibition. The suggestion is merely thrown out, so 

 as to receive the consideration of those interested, preparatory 

 to discussion and decision, at their organization, which is pro- 

 posed to take place in January; and, as before mentioned, 

 sufficient intimation as to time and place will be given in the 

 papers.
