In the Aged Bull class " Conqueror 3rd," after having scored 
for His Grace the Duke of Buckingham three Royal firsts in 
succession, had to give place to " Prince Victor," the champion 
bull, shown by Major-General Sir F. W. Fitzwygram, Bart., 
who is a recent convert to the breed. The latter was slightly 
narrow when viewed from the rear, but he displayed marvellously 
long hind-quarters, carrying lots of grand heavy flesh, great 
depth of chest, big loins, deep flank, and perfect head ; crops 
slightly wanting. " Conqueror 3rd," though carrying age well, 
seemed a trifle tucked-up in the flank, short in the quarter, and 
rough at the tail-head. The third prize had grand rounds, 
immensely long quarters, good crops, loins slightly down. In 
Two-year-old Bulls, as also in yearlings, Mr. John Godfrey, a 
Leicestershire breeder, took first honours, the second prizes 
going to His Grace the Duke of Buckingham and Mr. VV. S. 
Shaw (of Lichfield) respectively. 
Cows were a large and meritorious class, and were headed 
by his Grace's " Countess of Temple," who also proved the 
champion of Longhorn females. The second prize went, very 
deservedly, to " Fairer," owned by Major-General Sir F. Fitz- 
wygram, Bart., and apparently a famous milker, with well- 
formed shoulder, good chine, deep foreflank, and better head and 
horn than the first-prize cow. In the Two-year-old Heifer class, 
both first and second prizes were taken by Mr. Richard Hall, of 
Derby, who has lately taken to Longhorns, while first honours 
in yearlings fell to the same exhibitor, for " Lady Fanny," only 
six months old, and a truly promising beast, destined, with 
common luck, to win many another Royal prize. Mr. Hall had 
altogether ten entries, a highly creditable lot. 
Welsh. 
This hardy and active breed, so well adapted to the cold and 
damp districts of Wales, was shown in larger force than might 
have been expected, considering that they were only allotted five 
classes, namely, two of males and three of females ; and all the 
entries had the recommendation of being brought forward in 
moderate everyday condition. The Earl of Cawdor and Captain 
J. C. Best divided most of the leading prizes. The first-prize 
Aged Bull, exhibited by his Lordship, was a fine massive beast, 
having large solid rounds, deep sides, and great length of body, 
with some plainness about the tail-head. In the Yearling Bulls, 
" Black Prince," owned by Captain Best, was one of the best of 
the breed, his grand level top, good underline, deep flank, and 
heavy flesh, proclaiming him a highly promising voungster. 
His ribs alone might have been improved by a little more of
