detracting from tbe bloom required in a sbowyard. No. 1051, third prize, 
is a very useful animal, showing good breeding. 
Class 84. Bull above Two and not exceeding Three Tears oW.— Eight 
entries^ First prize, No. 1053, an exceedingly nice animal, of good quality and 
nice touch, will probably be conspicuous again in the Showyard. No. 1057, 
second prize, has good symmetry and character, very fair in hand, and will also 
without doubt be heard of again. No. 1059, third prize, is a fine animal of 
superior touch and quality, but defective in the formation of the shoulder. 
There were in the class other good specimens, which will show to advantage 
probably in local Shows. 
Class 85. Yearling Bull above One and not exceeding Two Years old. — 
Fourteen entries ; first prize was awarded without hesitation to No. 1064, very 
level, good colour, perfect in shape, and without doubt one of the gems of the 
Exhibition. No. 1068, second prize, has good symmetry and touch, but his coat 
is not good, which age will perhaps rectify. Third prize, No. 1065, is a nice 
young bull, showing good breeding, but not equal in symmetry and character 
to the one awarded the second prize. There were other animals in this class 
of considerable merit. 
Class 86. Bull Calf above Six and not exceeding Twelve Months old. — Nine 
entries. No. 1075, first jirize, was far away the best, indeed the only good 
one in the class, is'o. 1076, second prize, is long and level, with good touch, 
but a plain head. He will evidently develop into a good animal. 
Class 87. Cow above Three Years old. — There were sixteen entries in this 
class. No. 1099 was awarded first prize, without difficulty. She is indeed a 
grand cow, with great size, perfect symmetry, of good quality, and beautiful 
touch; one of the best Sussex cows ever exhibited, and it may also be said 
that she was one of the gems of the Show. We had considerable difficulty 
in arriving at a decision for the second prize ; but, after careful comparison, 
we gave it to No. 1088, the oldest in the class, not perfect, but possessing 
points which we considered entitled her to the pride of place over No. 1085, 
which we awarded the third prize. Excepting the first prize in this class, 
there was nothing particular to notice. 
Class 88. Heifer, in-Milk or in-Calf, above Two' and not exceeding Three 
Years old. — There were nine entries, one of which was absent. No. 1107, to 
which we awarded the first prize, was a fine specimen of the Sussex breed, 
faultless in symmetry, touch, colour, quality, and general character. 
No. 1108, second prize, was little behind her fortunate rival in merit; her 
colour was not so good, and although of great size for age, she was of excel- 
lent quality. To No. 1103, we had no difficulty in awarding the third prize, 
although there were others possessing considerable merit. 
Class 89. Yearling Heifer above One and not exceeding Two Years old. — 
Eleven entries, of which one was absent. There was very keen competition 
in this class; an exceptionally good lot. No. 1110, first prize, is very 
handsome, perfect in shape, with great width, having a nice touch ; and 
although run close by No. 1109, which took second prize, is well entitled 
to the premier position. No. 1113, third prize, is a sweet heifer, and worthy 
of the honour. The remainder of this class were so meritorious, that they 
were justly entitled to be commended. 
Class 90. Heifer Calf above Six and not exceeding twelve Months old. — 
Never before were seen together such a grand lot of calves of this now acknow- 
ledged famous breed, not one of which was unworthy to compete at a Royal 
Show. No. 1125 we considered the most perfect specimen ; she is good at all 
points, a little wanting in mellowness of touch, but, if fortunate, she will 
develop into a grand cow. It was gratifying to see a lot of calves of such 
quality in competition, which clearly indicates farther improvement m this
