also <:;ood specimens of the breed. The rest of the animals in this Class the 
owners need not be ashamed of, being nearly all either Highly Commended 
or Commended. 
Class 07. Yearling Bulls. — This Class, as usual, was a most difficult 
one to judge, on account of the difference in age and size of the animals, 
some being much more developed than others, but the Judges feel confident 
that they have given the prizes where most merited. 
Class 98. Cuivs or Heifers. — This Class requires Special mention, and 
we regret we had not more prizes at our disposal, there being many animals 
well worthy of taking honours, and the Judges would respectfully ask the 
Council to extend the prizes to No. 1446 (Mr. Joseph Godman's Coluvibine 
2nd), the Reserve Number.' The winner of the First Prize in this Class, 
No. 1436 (Mr. W. B. Waterlow's Ekd), is also the winner of the Prize 
given by the Sussex Herd-book Society for the best Sussex Cow or Heifer, 
as well as of the Queen's Medal for the best Sussex shown ; and we have no 
hesitation in saying that she is one of the best animals that we have ever 
had the pleasure of giving a prize to, and well worthy of her position. The 
Second, No. 1451 (Mr. Louis Huth's Lilly 2nd), and Third, No. 1435 
(Mr. J. Stewart Hodgson's Laura 7th), Prize winners, as well as the 
Reserve Number, are beautiful specimens of this valuable breed, and we 
have great pleasure in commending the whole Class. 
Class 99. Tivo-year-old Heifers. — This is again a Class of beautiful 
young heifers, and the same remarks will apply as in Class 98, there being 
many animals well worthy of a prize. The Judges had in this Class great 
difficulty in deciding between the First and Second Prize winners, which 
they ultimately felt called upon to leave to reference. They again had no 
hesitation in commending the whole Class. 
Class 100. Yearling Heifers. — No. 1484 (Mr. Barclay Field's Berry 
9th), the First Prize winner in this Class, was again a beautiful animal, 
well worthy of the distinction ; she was also Reserve Number for the 
Sussex Herd-book Prize. 
Several animals in this Class besides the prize winners will be heard of 
in future years. 
The Judges cannot close their report without congratulating the breeders 
of Sussex stock on the excellent show at Windsor, both in quality as well 
as numbers, and they look forward with great confidence to seeing this 
useful breed take a very prominent place amongst the diflerent breeds of 
the country, in view of the improvement made year by year.

LoNGHORN Cattle. 
The grand old Longliorn, Bakewell's breed, must ever hold the 
first place in chronological history of the scientific and systematic 
improvement of British cattle, and long may the type be pre- 
served in its true grandeur and picturesque beauty. The iron 
constitution, the ample lean-flesh, and the abundant yield of 
exceedingly rich milk, especially as the Longhorn is reputed a 
small consumer, should appeal to the pocket as strongly as the 
wild majesty of the type appeals to the imagination, for these 
are days in which utility is appreciated, and they are days in
