the dense masses of foliage which clothed the grassy slopes 
on the other side of the Avon. In the earlier part of the day, 
when the sun was shining upon the Castle, the spectacle was 
specially imposing, and it quickly established itself in the public 
favour as one of the “ sights ” of the Show. The Park is well 
timbered, and the Surveyor succeeded adinirably in his efforts to 
give the greatest effect to the natural facilities he found at his 
disposal. A conspicuous object in the midst of the live stock 
section was the belt of timber called Lord Brooke’s Clump, on 
one side of which the Dairy Cattle were stalled. 
The ground, being fairly level, was easy for travelling, and 
the surface remained in excellent order throughout the week. 
The shape of the yard was, moreover, such as to render all 
parts easily accessible.

, It will be seen from this statement that the aggregate entry 
of live stock at Warwick compares favourably with that at 
ordinary Meetings of recent years, the lesser total as compared 
with Doncaster being chiefly attributable to the smaller number 
of horses. It was not, however, to be expected that horses 
would come forward in such numbers as they did in the more
