anVl proceeded to appoint : Committees
for "the purpose of Piaminfn!; the va
rions articles and stock exhibited. The
occasion feeing 'novel in this part of tfie
country, of course ras t"iot generally
understood by the farmers, as it will
be in future." The interest, however,
r et'ned by the spectators, was encou
rasing to the friends 'ofagHculfure,
and removed all doubts, as to the fu
ture success of tjie- Society. .Among
the specimens t exhibited,- were five
colts of the'last spring's produce, all
of wJ ich were very fine ; but the com
mittee were, "of opinion, I hat the colt
shown bv Mr Rotan,. and.owned by"
V llnam F Kelly, was rather the best,
and therefore entitled to the premium
of a silver goblet worth" ten dollars.
There was no premium offered .for
colts two years old ; but there were
6ome of this description brought . for-
ward for inspection.
One of this- de-
scription, shown by Mr. John W alto n,'
was. generally allowed to" be the lar
gest and best grown of any ever seen
by the spectators.. ' r . ' . ,r
A large English )ull, of the short
horned breed, was exhibited by Sam'l
Jones. Esq. An honorary premium vas
awarded to Mr. 'Jones for " his public
spirit in bringing an animal of such
superior quality . into theicounty.
A joung bull of the half breed, was
shown by Mr. Michael Brown, vhich
was highly approved by the committee.
George Locke received a premium of
25, for a bull calf ol six months old,
which was very large and well made;
it was, however, of the common breed
of the country. - j ;
Two Chinese boars,' and one of the
English breed crossed were exhibited,
all very line hogs ; but Mri Loike's
was esteemed jrather the best; it was
moch thelargest. " " .
OP the Domestic Mamifactures, a
. number of very handsome specimens
were exhibited ; but some of these not
hating been made within the. time pre
scribed by the Society, of course coull
not compete for.the premiums. Amoig
these were some elegant bed curtains,
.and knotted counterpanes of superior
taste ; also, jl hearth , rug, Which at
tracted much curiosity, for the inge?
nious and tasty raanner "in which it
was wroujiht. ' '
The premium: of S 10, for tne best
ten yards of cloth, composed of cotton
ami wool, was awarded ''to.Mrs. Jpeb.
Feezer'; the cloth was afterwards sold-
at auction for a handsome, price.' A
premium of SS was also awarded to
Miss Mcrgaret Brandon for a pair of
" counterpanes, just from the loom.; '
A premium of S5 was awarded to
Ralph 'Owens, for a "two horse plough
"without a coulter. This plough, has
uuiuing new in 11s construction, dui
displayed some excellence of work.
Banship. The nlouchs; were 'tried
and this one esteemed the best.
Mr. Michael Brown had on the spot
an Enfield plough, ,, 6. 9i Imto' mere
ly for the public inspection, He also
exhibited a Cotton UuItiva,tor, ;w.hicIi
attracted much attention; , and was ge
nerally much approved. The commit
