Mr. Alleu's Iinportatioiis'of Stock. 



Mr. A. B. Allen paid us a short visit a few days 

 sinee, on his way homo from England. He has been 

 very suecesslul in the purchase and importation of 

 some very superior animals. The lirst shipment was 

 per packet ship Mediator, and consisted of Berksh re 

 swine of very large size. One ot these "stood three 

 feet high, of great length, nnd would fatten to weigh 

 about 800 lbs." Another shipment was per packet 

 ship Wellington ; nnd List a general OFSortment ac- 

 companied by himself, per the Hendrick Hudson, em- 

 bracing some very large swine of the Yorkshire nnd 

 Kenilworth breeds, which, it is stated in the Former's 

 Journal, will fatten to weigh 1600 lbs., but Mr. Al- 

 len thinks the maximum about 130O. (Large enough 

 in all conscience, ard we think Mr. A. can now sat- 

 isfy even the Kentuckians.)

Jmportep Stock. — We are happy to announce the 

 rctnrn from England of our fiicud A. B. Allen, Esq., 

 of Biiiralo, who hfls visited Grent Britain upon an ag- 

 ricultural tour, and ioepected all the principal herds of 

 ihe Kingdom. Perhaiss ive have no one who could 

 have done this to better odvanmge. Mr. Allen has 

 Ijng been devoted to the breeding o( cattle, and has 

 raised some beautiful Durhanis and pigs, such as we 

 have never seen surpassed. He now brings home 

 from his excursion a large colieclion of goulU Downs, 

 Yorkshire, Kenilworth and Berkshire pigs, Sbupard's 

 dogs, Dorking fowls, English pheasants, &c. He has 

 uiiier his care, some valuable slic^ii, worth $.'>(>0 per 

 head, lor Mr. ttevenson. Bishop Meade, of Vn., and 

 F Rotch, Csq , of Otsego co., N. Y. Mr. Rotch's 

 Innib is a South Pown, only six months old, cjid 

 weighs 1.j2 lbs. It i^ indicd an acquisition tn our 

 M)il?, nnd wo doubt iiiH fi-l be a source of profit U< 

 ^s imjfofter. Mr A. tame k j;.9.ci^pngcr in the lien

 gentleman brought out a very fine Durham cow lor 

 his own farm on the Connecticut. 



Oneida County. 



The Cattle Show and Fair of this county, was held 

 at Hampton, on the 2Uth nnd iilst ult.^ The Itoman 

 Citizen saje respecting it, "although the weather was 

 unfavorable, the extent of the exhibition exceeded all 

 expectation, and the village ol Hampton was filled to 

 overflowing in every nook and corner. Jt has ex- 

 ceeded all our most zealous friends had dared to hope — 

 and it has, forever, we trust, put to silence the evil 

 forebodings of those, who have prophesied evil of this, 

 Atsocialion, designed to do so much good lo the 

 Farmers and Mechanics of this county. The display 

 of working Cattle, Cows, young Cattle, Sheep and 

 Swine, was very fine. In the Dairy Deparlment, 

 Oneida has done her duty. The samples of Butter 

 and Cheese, were such as to challenge competition. 

 In Domestic Fabrics, there was a sad deficiency but 

 we trust it will not be so another year. 



There wore many fine horses exhibited, though j 

 great improvement is needed in breed of liorces, and 

 some matched and draught horses, as well os Studs, 

 and breeding Blares, were of the choicest description. 

 The amountof premiums paid, was §614." 

 The report on Field Crops, we deem valuable for 

 the purpose of comparison :

 we noticed last month is said to have died — from 

 want of care and nourishment. 



New fciewesee Fiirmer. 



We doubt whether there is any thing of which tho 

 '• Em|)ire Stale" has n.ore occasion lo be proud, ibnn 

 of its Agricultural Liteniture. The Cultivator at Al- 

 bany, and the Genetee Farmer at Rochester, aie both 

 noble repositories of agricuituinl science, and with 

 their immense circulation, ii est have a mighty iiilhi- 

 cnce on the furmiug interests ol that nnd the neighbor- 

 ing Slates. As their succetsive numheis come before 

 ^s, we cannot but admire the rithnees of their eon-
