Single Horse Carts. — Umler tliis class we selected ten to be taken out and 
placed together for our inspection, viz., Frank Milford (2-i), Chapman (31), 
Woods and Cocksedcje (137), Harrison (172), Millord and Son (359), Hayes 
(739), Ball and Son (1004), GrosskiU (1405), Beverley Waggon Co. (1718), and 
Corbett (3839). This class was equally as creditable to the exhibitors as the 
former class of waggons, for constinction, strength, durability, and especially- 
excellent workmanship. The greatest diflerence in principle was in the mode 
of tilting, which evidently applied to the custom in the various counties they 
represented. These arrangements of tilting commanded our special attention, 
and we considered " Hayes," the most simple, useful, and effective. To Hayes's 
cart (739) we awarded the first prize : very strongly and well built, of the 
same excellent workmanship he exhibited in his waggons ; sides of solid elm 
planking If inch thick, frame strong, and of English oak, fixed side-boards, 
strongly ironed ; with head and tail ladders complete ; tipping apparatus 
excellent, the part at all likely to get out of order could be renewed at a 
mere nominal expense ; through axle of 2? inches square, wheels well made with 
4 inches by | inch tyre, the body carried on each side upon an iron flange of 
62 inches long, by 3 inches wide and {r thick, part-and-parcel of the axle j 
body-boards of elm an inch thick, placed lengthways ; price lil. 10s. 
Corbett was awarded the second prize with his cart (3839), a very roomy, 
strong, and useful cart. Frame of English oak, plank sided, fitted with 
harvest ladders ; iron axle through, well made wheels of 4 feet 7 inches 
diameter with 4 by f inch tyre ; the tipping apparatus less complicated than 
most ; the workmanship we considered very good, and the price moderate, 14?. 
Messrs. Crosskill (1405), we awarded the third prize. The class altogether 
was well represented.

Two Horse Carts. — Nine under this class were selected for inspection, viz., 
Frank Milford (26), Chapman (30), Woods and Cocksedge (141), Harrison 
(171), Thomas Milford (358), Hayes (741), Beverley Waggon Co. (1724), Ball 
and Son (1005), and Corbett (3840), all of whom were exhibitors in the Class of 
Single Horse Carts. Hayes (741) was placed first in this class, a cart pre- 
cisely on the same principle as his single horse cart, but it was also stronger ; 
larger in the body; the wheels were broader and stronger, and capable of 
carrying a much greater weight, the head and tail ladders were complete, and 
the tipping apparatus the same that received our special approval ; jmce Idl.

well-built cart, of English oak frame, and ]ntch-pine sides of I2 inch thick, 
harvest ladders complete, fixed side-boards bound with 5 inch round plate iron,
