46 Report on the Exhibition of Live Stock at Bristol. 
Horses. 
In Class 1, for Agricultural Stallions foaled in the year 1876, 
the Earl of Ellesmere's " Young Prince of the Isle," a big, 
powerful bav horse, carried off the first prize. JNIr. Frederic 
Street was second with " Grand Duke," an iron-grev, perhaps a 
little short in the ribs. The third prize was secured by the 
Earl of Ellesmere's " \ oung Drayman," a compact little horse. 
There were twentv-one entries in this class, but though the com- 
petition was a long one, nothing very nearly approached the 
winners. 
The Agricultural Stallions foaled before Jan. 1, 1876, were 
an excellent class, and many of them were carefully examined 
before the decision of the Judges was made known. Mr. 
Stephen Davis was first with a grand five-year-old roan, 
" General." Mr. G. Herbert Morrell took second honours 
with " King of the ^ ale," a blue roan, with good trotting action. 
The third prize went to the Earl of Ellesmere, for " Pride of 
the Shires," and the reserve number to James Hibbard, Sen., 
for " The Sultan," a bright bay, with white face. " Young 
Champion," belonging to the Stand Stud Company, a noble old 
chestnut horse, frequently successful in former times, would 
probably have taken a place, but that he went slightlv lame. 
Class 3, for Clydesdale Stallions foaled in the year 1876, only 
produced four competitors. Mr. R. Loder's " Scotland Yet," a 
large-boned horse, was selected first. The Duke of Beaufort, K.G., 
was second with "Prince Charlie;" and " Waverley," the pro- 
perty of Mr. Yincent P. Calraady, was reserved and commended. 
Mr. James Firth Crowther, in the Clydesdale Aged Stallion 
Class, repeated his triumph at Liverpool with " Topsman," a 
dark chestnut, with white feet ; he is a strong compact horse, 
with splendid action. The Duke of Beaufort, K.G., was second 
with " Paragon Tom," a large heavy horse, almost too much 
so for a Clydesdale. The third prize was secured by " The 
Baronet," a three-year-old bay, for Messrs. E. and A. Stanford. 
Lord Fitzhardinge's " Prince of Clydesdale " (reserve) might 
have been placed higher had he been a better mover. It is 
worthy of remark that the first and second horses in this class 
were bred by Mr. George Wilson, of Aberdeenshire. 
There were only two entries for Suffolk Stallions foaled in 
the year 1876. Mr. William Byford's " Reliance " took the 
prize. " Farmer's Glory, ' belonging to Mr. William Wilson, 
was the reserve number and highly commended. 
The entry for Aged Suffolk Stallions was not much better than 
that in the previous class. Of five, only three put in an appear- 
ance. Mr. Horace Wolton s great chestnut horse, " Royalty,"
