Report on the Exkibition of Live Stock at Leicester. 439 
" Bolivar," was an animal perfect in form, witli a wonderful coat ; the only- 
fault to bo found with him being the faded colour of his hair. The second 
prize, No. 205, I^ady rii:;ot's " Rosalie," was a stylish animal of first-rate 
quality, and showed good breeding. No. 214, the third prize, Mr. Walker's 
" Cotswold Examiner," and 208, the lleserve Number, Mr. Fawkes's " Fra 
Diavolo," were also veiy good bulls ; and the same may be said of 212, 
Mr. Aylmer's "Prince Hopewell," No. 207, Mr. Fawkes's "Lord Belmore," 
No. 210, Mr. Peel's « Baron Beust," and No. 223, Lord Feversham's " Man- 
chester." 
Class XXIII., Bull Calves over Six and under Twelve Months old. — In 
this class were many very good calves, No. 226, Mr. Foljambe's " Knight 
of the Bath," being a wonderful animal of his age ; the second prize, No. 227 
"Knight of the Crescent," also belonging to Mr. Foljambe, was also very- 
good, and had he been as faultless in his hind quarters as he was in his fore, 
would have taken first place. The Reserve Number, Mr. Fawkes's " Lord 
Montgomery;" No. 229, Mr. Lynn's "Grand Sultan," and No. 228, Lord 
Walsingham's " Wensleydalc," were all very good calves. 
Class XXIV., Cows above Three Years Old. — Was a very good class, but 
No. 253, Mr. Booth's " Lady Fragrant," was by far the best animal. The second 
prize. No. 250, Mr. How's " Jolly Queen," was a very evenly made cow, but 
rath'er tucked up, as if off her feed. Tlie third prize, Lady Bigot's " Queen of 
Rosalea," was also good. The Reserve Number, 251, Mr. Tennant's " Miss Fare- 
well," was a very fine cow, but rather deficient in her quarters ; she would 
have been placed higher had it not been for this fault. No. 252, Mr. George 
Game's "Lady Lucy," was highly corn-mended; No. 243, Mr. Foljambe's 
"Cherry Blossom," No. 248, Sir W, De Capell Brooke's "Rose of Baby," and 
No. 255, Mr. Bradshaw's " Beauty," were all very good animals. 
Class XXV., Heifers in Calf or Milk under Three Years Old.— With the 
exception of Her Majesty the Queen's " Alexandra," which was a good animal, 
this was a weak class. 
Class XXVI., Yearling Heifers. — This was a veiy large class, but after half- 
a-dozen had been picked out, the remainder were not so good as we have seen 
at previous shows. The first prize was awarded to No. 27G, Mr. How's 
" Lady Anne," a very perfect animal ; the second prize to No. 282, Mr. Booth's 
" Patricia ;'' the third prize to No. 279, Mr. George Game's " Duchess of 
Towneley ;" and the Reserve Number, No. 283, Mr. Booth's " Lady Gaiety." 
These were all good animals, and we had some difBculty in placing them. 
Mr. Tennant's " Rose of York," No. 280, was also veiy good. 
Class XXVII., Heifer Calves. — Was a very good class, the first p)rize. Lord 
Penrhyn's " Waterloo 27th " being a very fine calf, with excellent quality; 
while the second prize. No. 300, Mr. Stratton's "Ariel," is a very well made 
calf, with a capital coat ; the Reserve Number, No. 292, Mr. Foljambe's 
" Flora No. 298, Lord Penrhyn's " Waterloo 26th," and No. 295, the Rev. 
W. H. Beaver's " Lady Culshaw," are also very good. 
We consider tlie above a very just report, and it is pleasant to 
find old acquaintances maintaining their previous high position. 
Mr. Booth's "Commander-in-Chief" first entered public life at 
Plymouth, where in moderate condition he obtained the second 
prize as a yearling ; since Leicester he has obtained honours 
wherever he has appeared. Although in some former years there 
may have been a superior individual specimen, there has seldom 
been a better class of bulls over three years old. 
Mr. Meadow's splendid yearling bull "Bolivar" sustained the
