Notwithstanding the enormous and unparalleled collection of implements at 
O.xford, there were in reality few novelties, and many of the new machines 
■were anything but improvements. Simplicity of arrangement is too often 
sacrificed in order to arrive at a variety of movements, to effect a result which 
after all is not worth the complication it enforces. We think it would be 
desirable in future to associate an engineer as one of the tribunal. Questions 
continually arise which a practical farmer, however shrewd and intelligent, 
cannot decide ; moreover, he is somewhat at the mercy of the exhibitor, whose 
tale runs glibly, and who is prepared with special pleading which it is difficult 
for a non-e-\pert to meet. We proceed to notice some of the more prominent 
alterations in, and additions to, the miscellaneous department, and we may 
pause to elucidate the meaning of this somewhat ambiguous term. In the first
