is lightish in colour, with a great barrel ; she appeared to be 
heavy in-calt. " Picotee" has a sweet expression. The heifer- 
calves were a very even-looking and attractive class. 
The following is the Report of the Judges of Devon and 
Sussex cattle : — 
It being wished that we should write a Eeport of the Cattle we have judged, 
we beg to state that the Devons shown are very fine specimens of the breed ; 
some of the first-prize animals are really wonders, and they certainly do very 
great credit to the breeders and exhibitors. We would, however, suggest 
that the breeders of Devous should not lose sight of size, so as not (if possible) 
to allow the animals to get smaller. 
With reference to the Sussex beasts, we consider that they are much im- 
proved, especially the female animals; but we should much like to find in 
them a little more quality and greater mellowness of touch.

There were some good animals of this breed, that so nearly 
resembles the Devon, but the entries were few in number. 
Messrs. E. and A. Stanford's old bull " Dorchester " had only 
another bull, belonging to the same owners, to compete with ; 
he had great length and short legs, was light in colour, with a 
darkish face. Mr. James Brady's " Bouncer " is a great cow ; and 
his yearling heifer " Rival," a dark-coloured one, showed well. 
LONGHORNS. 
It is a pity there were not more entries of this breed of cattle, 
which certainly have a grand and picturesque appearance, 
with great size. " Conqueror 3rd," belonging to the Duke of 
Buckingham, took first place, which makes the third time he has 
been in that coveted position at the Royal Shows ; he is an 
enormous animal, with immense girth, and showed good quality. 
The second bull, " Prince Victor," did not fall much below the 
first in general features, some people in fact seemed to think he 
was the better of the two. A cow with the curious name of 
" Calke " took first prize in the class for cows, in-calf or in-milk, 
for Mr. R. Hall ; her long even horns, bending down on either 
side of her face, nearly met over her nose. 
The following is the Report of the Judges of Longhorns and 
Dairy Cattle : — 
Class 63 contained only three entries, but they were all grand specimens 
of this old-fashioned breed, and possessed qualities which would do honour to 
any class of cattle. 
There was tome difference of opinion amongst the Judges as to the award
