JOUENAL. OF HORTICULTURE AND COTTAGE GARDENER.

owned by an artist, it would liave taken the first prize. Dun cocks we 

 thought were a poor lot, but the hens made up for them ; what should 

 have been Blue Carriers were mostly slate-coloured, but they are im- 

 proving. The Yellow Dragoons were all good, the first prize beiug 

 won by, we aro told, the same pair that took the silver cups at the 

 Crystal Palace and Bingley Shows. In "Any other Coloured Dra- 

 goons," the most magnificent pair of Reds we have seen for many 

 years deservedly were first. We were informed they were bred by the 

 London fancier who bred the first-prize Yellows. Blues were second. 

 All the birds in the class were good, and very properly highly com- 

 mended. 



There were twenty-eight entries of Antwerps, but neither Judges 

 nor exhibitors appear to ^Jiow what they want. The first prize went 

 to a pair of hard-coloured, useful-looking Blue-chequered, and were 

 <jlaimed for £o ; the second-prize birds were Meally-ash. Jacobins, 

 excepting those which took the first prize, were only moderate. The 

 second-prize pair we took for two cocks. What has become of all the 

 good Jacobin fanciers ? Mr. Tirth was first and second in Barbs 

 with, perhaps, two of the best pairs in England, tha first-prize cock 

 being a wonder. 



There was a lot of good Blue (or should-be Bine) and also White 

 Fantails, but many of the Whites appeared to be snii'ering from over- 

 showing. Almond Tumblers were very good, also the Beards, Balds, 

 and Any variety of Tumblers. The Nuns, the poor Nuns ! the whole 

 class were disqualified for over-trimming ; it is but just to Mr. Graham 

 and Mr. Haansbergen to say that they were uot included, their birds 

 not being sent, or had not arrived. The two prize pairs of Magpies 

 were charming. Turbits were also very good, particularly the first- 

 prize pair ; but here, again, pens 1221 and 1224 were disqualified for 

 being so badly oileil. 



Swallows and Archangels were fair. English Owls were very good, 

 and many pens reminded us of the time "when foreign ones were not 

 known at our shows. The improvement in this breed has been very 

 marked the last few years. The foreign Owls were very good. The 

 first-prize Runts weighed 4 lbs. 12 ozs. 



The whole class of Trumpeters was splendid ; first Black, second a 

 beautiful pair of Whites. The birds in the Any variety class were 

 all pretty. We very much admired a pair of Dutch Pouters shown by 

 Mr. Tegetmeier.
