THE VETERINARIAN, AUGUST 1, 1843. 
Ne quid falsi dicere audeat, ne quid veri non audeat. — Cicero, 
The greater part of our readers are, or should be, in the 
habit of perusing “ The Mark Lane Express/’ and “ The 
Farmer’s Magazine,” periodicals which, under the excellent su- 
perintendence of Mr. Shaw, record every thing that is of im- 
portance to the agricultural world. 
During the last month the Royal Agricultural Society held 
its annual meeting at Derby. It was most numerously attended ; 
and, were it not for a misunderstanding that took place in regard 
to the situation of the exhibition of the implements of husbandry, 
and an omission which the writer of this account will feel it his 
duty to mention, not a fault could have been found with it. 
There were present, among many others, at the Mayor’s ban- 
quet, the council dinner, and the different exhibitions, the Dukes 
of Devonshire and Richmond — the Earls Spencer, Hardwick, 
Howe, Ilchester, Burlington, Scarborough, Harrington, and Yar- 
borough — the M arquis of Downshire, and Viscount Torrington
