Agriciltural Sooiety beld its annual Fall Show at Prince Albert, on Tuesday and Wednesday, 6th and 7th sist. On Tuesday morning the weather seemed as if it had a teat in its eye, but as the day advanced phabus asserted his Tights'and drove the weeping pluvis from the field. The show of inplements was very light there being only one rcuffler, one KT choice cattle, a cow and a bull calf. They were the subject of general admiration, -- The calf was certeinly one st the finest we ever saw. We undagiand Mr. S. Fralick; Sc¢ogog, has boaght it for $55, he Has got n cheap aniaal itis worth nearly twice the money. Mr. C. Galbraith carried off the 1et priza for his Cow from 14 com- petitors. Wext came the horses, and] there is perhaps no other department con- nectod with our agricultural pursuits of Which we have equal reaconto feel proud as with the advancement that has been made and is still making in this department. Who that looks back only a few years in the history of this part of the country but must feel proud of the rapid advances this with the .other departments of Agricnlture have made around us. There were 175 entries in this department and such animals as any country might feel proud to own. set of éren harrows, and a turnip' cutter.-- There were three very-good wagons ottside and this composed the outside show of im- plements, with a reaper, several plows, a seed driil, &e. On entering the hall to the Tight we have a fine collection of Stoves and Furniture belonging to Mr. B. Bryan, 'Manchester-- there were some beauties. -- Next there is a dwplay of cooper ware, shown by Mr. Borchill, amongst other things he shows a good specimen of the barrel churn very excellent of its kind. The next in course is the cabinet ware, far from being extensive, but excellent specimens of a bureau and centre table, the laiter beifig-inlaid by some chaste inlaying.-- 'These were shown by Mr. Park. The 'cartiage builders gave excellent proof of their ability to supply the community with liret class carriages. Mr. D. C, McLean, of Manilla, exhibited a beauty of a single buggy. A number of capitat carnages from the factory of Mr. Emaney were shown and secured prizes, but they wera entered in the name of the owners and not of the manufacturer. Mr. White also showed 'some good carriages. They also secured eeveral prizes. N. Stevenson showed a first rate Cutter and a Buggy of his own manufacture, both were much thought of. Mr. Wright showed several sides of Leather -- Sole, Upper, and Calf, dres-ed--1hey were gol vp in a style and finish that would do credit to any tannery in the Dominion. The | Hamess and 8 ddlery depart- meut was well sustained. Several good patterns of sewing machines were exhibit- ed. The show of butter was very exten- sive and of fexcellent quality; we ehould think it most have puzzled the judges to decide. The fruits and vegetables were 10 profusion. The arrangement in the hall waa capital but the number of visitors was comparatively small. The hall was hignted up in the evening, and the Reach band was in attendance and supplied the music while the pedple promenaded around the hall and inspected the various articles. SECOND DAY. Oa the moining of the second day a number of fugitive clouds spread themsel- ves around the distant horizon, ang seemed inclined to dispute the territory with old sol, but he had seen too many summers for the fleecy tribe and very soon drove his chariot night through them and displayed his golden beams in all thesr splendor, thus giving a pledge afl security from rain 10 all who wished to participate in the enjoy ments of the day. The guarantee was received with the greatest satisfaction and at an un- usually easly hour Canada's true nobility-- the sons and daughters of toil--might be seen in one almost uninterrupted line mak- ing neir way along the leading roads of our Township, towards Prince Albert, the centre of attraction for the time being, The healthful bustle--the neighing of ihe horses the lowing of the caltle, the bleating of the sheep intermingled with the monotonous grunt of the unassuming but not the less nse- ful poker, rendered the scene one of more than usual interest, and brought vividly 10 the mind the important fact that this is préemmently an sgricultural country and that agricultwial purenits whether in im. proving our siock--increasing the fertility of the soil--or introducing improved Agri- cultoral Implements onght to occupy a <hief place in every community who desire 10 see our country prosper and ocoupy that posilion among the nations of the world which the God of nature has desigued she should occupy amongst the family of nations. As early as eight o'clock the gates of the show-gronnds were thrown open for the re- ception of Stock, and very soon those ex- cellent and commodious grounds were well plemished with such stock as would do credit 10 any country. On entermg the grounds 10 the lei we fonnd the cluse swine. This was not very exiensive, there being only 19 entries but they were good. John Rolph showed a capital sow, large breed, aud James Philipo showed an excellent Boar small breed. On the east end the shdep were Jocaind, of these there was a large and capital slow, there being 108 en- tries, capital animals, C. Pascoe diovejall competitors hard--C. Pexton showed some good gheep--Jos. Moffatt showed well. James Bond was successful in his ewes-- J Jury and Wm. Moflatt showed each a capual ram, che former a Leicester, the Jatter a. Cotswold. Andrew Scott tvok the for two beaunfal fat Ewes~ Mr, This class was well contested, parties who obiamed the prizes richly deserved them ; for in very many instances they wera hard driven. In the class Saddle or Carriage stallions, E. Major's Green Mountain Mor. gan carried off the Ist prize, it is a beauty ofan animal,the better it is known the high- or it rises in public favor, while the excel- lent stock which it raises is a great adili- tional recommendation Three of his colts took a first prize at this show--they are fine animals C. Blakey's one year old filly, J. W. Squelch's two year old colt, and W S. Sexton's spring colt. Wm. Tomlinson and Jas. Jewett showed two capital animals in this class--the former got the 2nd, and the latter the 3rd prize. Mr. Butson's Draught Stallion was much admired. Jobn Bently and Robt. Dobson showed two capital gen. pur. stallions, -- John McDonalds blood mare is a fine an- vimal. Alex. Leask and F. Graham showed each a capital 2 year old entire colt for dranght. 'W. & D. Carmichael's 2 year old Filly was much admired. Wn. and Joseph Moffat showed each a fine 2 year old draught filly. I. Steer and II. Page showed each a fine spring colt and carried off the Ist and 2nd prizes from 12 competitors. G. Hadden and Thos. Lamy carried off the 1st and 2nd prizes for draught teams. There were 7 entries in carriage teams,and one must go a long way ere he would find better. The three prize teams were especially handsome, but A. T, Button's took the 1st, Dr. Jones' the gd and W. J Umphey's the 3:d. Out of 15 single drivers, the three prize animals were the property of J, C. Widdifield, D. J. Adams and J. Jacobs. C. Marsh, M, i the excellent fence and the other arrange- ments are entirely due to the overtaxed generosity and unflazging zeal of the Grounds Commitiee. PRIZE LIST.

There were six entries of Lady Eques- trians, but only three come to time, viz : Miss N. Ww, Fairfield,--Miss Phebe Vernon--and Mrs. R. Jones. Miss Fair. field was the most suitably mounted. -- Miss Vernon's horse showed an entire absence of ambition--we had almost said animation --while Mrs. Jones' had too much lie and would not come under sub. jection. The ladies however did them- selves credit 'each of them deserved a prize. Miss Fairfield, Brock, took the first, Miss Vernon the second, and Mrs, Jones the third. Well dore Brock. -- Port Perry swept the tables in the com. petition in Gentleman Equestrianism, and they did it well. Phillip Foy took the 1st, Jas. Paxton the 20d, and Wm. Paxton, juo., the 3rd. We did not hear the com- petition for the prize amongst the several Bands of Music. This brings to a close one of the most successful shows ever held in the County. It was matter for congratulation to 'find over 3000 people assembled to do honor to the annual show of the N, 0. E. D. Agricultural Sdeiety ; and notwithstand- ing the unusually large gathering every- thing was conducted with the utmost good order and harmony. The society 1s much indebted to the many friends who came from other divisions to assist us in ourshow. We should have had much less success had South Ootario, Cartwright, and Mariposa, withheld their support by remaining away from the show. The chief part--almost the entire--of our eff. cient staf of Judges were outsiders, and a very consideralle portion of the spectators reside in those places to which we have referred. This is as it ought to be, and while it does credit to those who have kindly assisted us in successfully carryin, through ofr show; it Taysus under an obli- gation to reciprocate. similar feelings and to lend our presence and assistance when au opportunity presents itself. To say actributable to the indefatigable zeal and industry of the able President and his effi- cient staff of Directors would only be echo- ing that which is asserted by all who have witnessed the manner in which every thing Coates did well in his show of lambs. The Cattle came nextand in the opinion of com- pelent julges, thus department was .con- sidered well.up. There were in this class and the contest close one. "Wm, | 5 'also an ex- Win.

Major Forman was called to take charge of the platform, and the Concert commenced by an overture by the band. Mr. Lowry isa capital singer, the best we have heard for a very long time; it is the first time the people here have had the pleasure of bearing him. [Te 1s already a encores followed every ne of bis perform- ces. Miss Lynde bas an excellent voice with a well cultivated taste and manner. Miss Spears Is a capital singer, there are very few who can epual her mn a sweet Scotiish song. The Miss Walkers--the Miss Planks and Miss Harper and the Mr. Rookes sustained themeelves well. The valuable assistance of Mrs. £. Pungle was highly appreciated she is an accomplished hand ot the Piano. The Concert was a complete success in every particular, the house was literally packed. Want of space forbids us to enlarge. ent rere BROCK FALL SHOW. The Brock Agricultural Socicty's FallShow was held at Jones' Corners, 6ih Concession Brock, on Friday, 2nd inst. A better day could not be desired ; in fact, everything was favorable for holding a first rate Fair, and our Brock friends were not slow in tak- ing advantage of it.
