* The general term "commended" is here used ; as the mode of -wording the ' 
commendations by the Juries was not only dissimilar in the different classes, but 
even in the same class. The following expressions used by the Juries each bear 
a different signification: — " Anerkennung; " " Mit ehrenvoller Erwahnung; " 
" Ruhmliche Anerkennung;" Auszeichnung ; " " Ehrenwerthe Anerkennung ; " 
" Ehrenvoll Erw'ahnt wurden ; " " Ehrenvolle Anerkennung fanden ; " ''Erw'ahnt 
wurden ; " " Anerkannt wurden ; " " Lobend erwiihnt wurden." These differ- 
ences in expression, as also the indistinct and inconspicuous method adopted of 
designating the prize animals, will no doubt be changed at any future Exhibition.
