520 Report on the Exhibition oj Live-Stock at Newcastle. 
In the Class for Mares with Foal at foot, three were entered, 
but only one put in appearance. This was Mr. Edward 
Charlton's active and clean-legged eight-year-old bay mare, 
" Queen of Tyne," got by the Clydesdale stallion, "The Chief" 
(857), and out of the Shire mare, " Diamond," by "All Glory." 
She was bred by Mr. Charlton, and has won numerous prizes. 
Three-year-old Fillies, of which there were eight entries, made 
a fairly good class, with nothing in it of surpassing merit. Mr. 
E. Charlton took the lead with " Lassie," a three-quarter-bred 
Clydesdale, a trifle leggy, but active, and useful-looking. She 
was bred by himself, got by " Merry Monarch " (538), and out 
of " Lady," by " The Chief" (857). The Marquis of London- 
derry followed very closely with " Princess Charlotte," a thick, 
well-made bay, of similar descent, bred by its noble owner, got 
by " Gallant Scot," and out of " Princess Royal," by " Prince 
of Wales." 
Two-year-old Fillies were fewer in number, but of higher 
average merit. The Marquis of Londonderry had a clear 
enough winner here in a truly beautiful bay, " Myra," by " Go 
Bang," and out of " Merryton Maid," by " Prince of Wales," 
thus combining English and Scotch blood, the latter predomi- 
nating. His Lordship got the reserve ticket for " Judith," another 
very good filly of similar breeding, her sire being " Baron 
Douglas," and sire of dam, the prize horse " Newstead." 
Mr. Charlton's second-prize filly, a thick, good, useful chestnut, 
is likewise of similar breeding, combining with Clydesdale 
blood a strong dash of the Shire. Lord Egerton of Tatton got 
the third prize for " Marvel," a promising bay of quite the right 
stamp, bred by his Lordship, and got by the Shire stallion, 
" Waring's Wonder " (2688). 
In a fairly good Class of Yearling Fillies, animals of similar 
breeding took the prizes, — largely Scotch foundation with a 
strong dash of the Shire. The Marquis of Londonderry came 
first with " Blanche," a good-looking brown got by " Go Bang ; " 
and with " Dinorah," a nice black with good flat bone, got by 
" Castlereagh," his Lordship took the third position. Mr. E. 
Charlton had a good second in a promising black, got by 
" Merry Monarch " (538). 
The Class for Draught Mares of any Breed, without Foal, 
contained a few really first-rate animals. Mr. David Riddell 
took the lead with the admirably-built Clydesdale mare, " Bonny 
Jean," for which he paid 200 guineas at the Whitehill sale a 
few months ago. She is a thick, well-topped four-year-old 
brown, with grand action, and true Clydesdale character. She 
has w on numerous prizes in Scotland. Mr. W. R. Trotter had 
a very creditable second in " Gazelle," a big active bay of a
