630 Report on Live-Stock at Carlisle. 
her hind-quarters, rather wanting in style, and very fat. Mr. 
John Elwell's " Princess Eugenie " showed more style and 
quality, and was placed fourth. Mr. Clement Stephenson's 
reserve heifer has admirable back and loins, but is light in 
her girth. High commendations were handed to Mr. B. St, 
John Ackers and to Mr. T. H. Hutchinson, while several other 
very good heifers might have been similarly distinguished. 
The Calf Class (No. 60) contained 23 promising prodigies 
of early development, condition, and smartness. First came 
" Lady Georgina Newcomb," after " Lord Prinknash 2nd," a 
deep, thick, wealthy calf with good hair. Next to her stood 
the Rev. Robert B. Kennard's " Blossom 5th," of good Bates and 
Booth blood, with attractive coat and quality, but rather light 
in girth. Four months younger followed Mr. Joseph Stratton's 
" Ethelberta," a very neat compact calf in the prime condition 
which always characterises the Alton Priors exhibits, but her 
shaky full hocks tell of trying forcing. Mr. P. Ascroft's more 
lengthy calf, which came fourth, seemed leggy by the side of 
Mr. Stratton's. The Duke of Richmond's reserve heifer will 
probably make a better cow than several of those placed above 
her, although at present she wants condition and is slack behind 
the shoulder. Mr. H. Smith, of Castlebrack, Queen's Co., had 
a high commendation for his " Victoria 49th," a straight, deep, 
well-got-up calf. The Judges, not profuse in their honorary 
awards, commended Mr. Jonas Webb's smart " Babraham Rose 
5tli," and Mr. D. Pugh's " Czarina Manoravon." 
Hereforbs. 
Here fords made up in merit what they wanted in numbers, and 
Mrs. Sarah Edwards, Mr. Aaron Rogers, Mr. William Taylor, 
Mr. J. H. Arkwright, and other spirited supporters of the sort 
forwarded some of their best animals. Although nothing came 
up to jVIrs. Sarah Edwards' magnificent " Leonora," the premier 
Hereford amongst many strong classes at Kilburn, or Mr. William 
Taylor's " Tredegar," the champion of the Liverpool Meeting, 
there were some admirable level heavy-fleshed representatives of 
the Palefaces. In Australia and America Herefords are grow- 
ing in reputation. On some of the great Western ranches they 
have mated well with Texan and native cattle ; the half-breeds 
are compact, short in the leg, with good flesh and quality. 
Encouraged by these successes, during the present summer 
400 good Herefords have been selected and exported by 
American stockmasters. Some of the exhibitors made con- 
siderable complaint on account of third prizes being with- 
held in several of the classes in which five entries were not
