before or sh9rtly after calving.
I SHEEP.
The show of Isbeep was generally al-
lowed to be the hest ever seen in Canada.
All the sheep Pens were crowded full,
and a portion of the stalls set apart for
Dazhams were turned into and occupied
as sheep pens.; Cotswolds, Leicesters,
Lint:loins, South Downs, Shropshire, and
Oxford Downs, and even merinos, were
toll well represented. And also
crosses. betweee merinos and. Leicesters
and Cottevolds, and between South
Downs and the logg-wools, and Shrop-
shires and the lortg-woohe 'were to be
seen—the wholle exhibition being well
calculated te ladden the heart of the
sheep fanoiere and presenting a wider
field for th si stady and consideration of
tbe progressive and enterprising farmer.
It would be invidious to particularize
amongst eel many and such splendid
flocks of sheep, as late importations in-
cluded the very pick of Britain's Cots-
wolds, Leicesters, Lincolns, South
-Downs, Shropthixe Downs, and Oxford
.Downs. It was rather hard on our
'Huron exhibiters of imported Shrop-
shire Downs, ara the Shropshire and Ox-
fordshire were classed and shown to-
gether. The Judges at the start favored
the well fed, Oeforde; so, after a section
or two had been gone over, the Shrop-
shire men dtd not bring out their sheep
at all. I have every reason to believe
that this will not occur again at the
"Western,' ea in the future each breed
of Downs will form a seperate clam
, SWINE,
-I am told-, Was a good show, both as to
numbers and gnality,first-olats imported
animals being shown by Mr. Snell, of
Ednaonton, and Mr. Main, of Trafalgar,
but, as your correspondent's fancy does
not run in that line, I can say little
more about the pigs.
- In conolt4ion, let me describe a horse
race I saw. When looking after some
animals on exhibitioniI had occasion to
cross the She ground at about 10
o'clock at high , I heard quite a noise,
and saw quite a I:hitter of lights. On
nearing tho --scene, I could distinguish
in the noise the cries of "Irish Molt
against the field," "Two to one on Blue
Bonnet," "111 bet $10 that Dandy Jint
wins the racted etc. Wath some noni
siderable squeezing, I edged my way in-
to the centre of the crowd, where I fotmd
a sort of table, say some eight feet long
and four fegt wide at the one end, and
tapering to ab ut three inches at the
other, eno1oed iwith a, rim some three
inthes deep The wide end was ele-
vated, so t at the thing stood at an
angle of say 40 degrees. The tipper end
was divided off by wooden pegs, two
inches long, Iinte about a dozen spaces,
and pegs wet() plentifully stuck all over
the surface converging to the narrow
end at the ground. Twelve black balls;
two inches in diameter, with names, se
I have indicted, painted white on es.ch,1

Each individual held the animal he ha
bet On, On hs space at the upper end
and at the Word "Go 1" he lets go, and
away the bells went their zigzag path-
way—nothing heard now but the roll
and. clatter tif the balls, till some more
lucky ball clears the nerrow outlet and
is declared 4he winner, amidst tremen-
dous cheer. I have two reasons for,
calling the attention of my " horse -
speeding " riends particularly to the
above progtandene :—First: They can

comitants, and the horseflesh saved,

not attract or distract the attention of
farmers and their families who had
come to see an agricultural exhibition.

in comparison, and were very go

HORSES.
Getting outside and comme
with the horses, I found the
draught clam somewhat deftoie
compared to former exhibitions
.and, quite behind Toronto both in
tity and quality. In agrioultur
general purpose horses the sho
somewhat better; and. carriage
drivers was fair. There ought to
better turnout of di aught and ag

at tlais show.

The Ayrshires were very poorly epee

of the class that I have ever seen t ae
of the large shaws in Ontario. It wa

are still where man is compe ed by the
sweat of his brow to toil for 'his daily

One great source of strength and com-
fort is the number of earnest .Christians
among the fishermen themselves. The
numerous revivals on the east coast of
Scotland have worked wonders amongst
them. When.thesBanffshire men first
mite they used to be a source of terror
to the inhabitants. Now all this is
changed, and their advent is looked for
as a time of refreshment and quicken-
ing, their voices being now heard in
earnest pleadings with God end man.
Their fervent preyers and menly plead-
ings are not easily forgett n, and in -

StornOw y During the Herring
Fishing.
Stornowe.r lies partly on a point of
land jutting ontInto the bay; hence ite
name is sup osed to signify "the nose of
the bay." To the west of the town, on
the other side 9f the water, is the castle,
with its extisive and beautifully leid
gut ground. he Lewis scenery haa
none of the wild grandeur of Skyetnor
the wooded beauty of the mainland;
but it always goatee to have a certain
peculiar chtrm and beauty of its ow*,
Stornoway ay is no exception to this,
and there ate points of vantage from
which the vitew' is particularly fine.
One of these is the top of Gallows
Hill, or croana-croich, within the
castle grounds pverlooking the bay oe
its south-west side. The view front
here on a fine, clear day is simply per-
iod of its kind-I—a mixture of sea and
land, rapturous in its grandeur and
suggestiveness.
At your feet lies the town, with its
moving forms, and voices nowtand again,
wafted up to the fitful breeze. Over
against it stands the castle, embedded
in its setting of deep greensward sloping
down to the water's edge; while withie,
the harbor end at its mouth there flit
backwards tied forwards, in a strange'
alternation of order and confusion, the
fleet of some hundreds of fishing -boats
going to or returning from • the fishing
ground, with a steamer or sailing craft
trying to thread its way through the
tangled maee. Add to this the wide
horizon vie* of moor, and hill, and see,
and rugged menntain ranges from the
hills of Harris and Park on the west, to
Cape Wrath and Skye on the east and
south, and 4,ou have a scene outrivalled,
it may be, by others in the sunny South,
or icy Nort , but yet to the beholder
one never t4o be forgotten..
Descendi g, and passing along the
busy beach, we have another scene, in
its way as ieteresting if net more so.
All along the two shore sides of the
promontory, spoken of stretch tiers on
tiers of bartels, relieved here and there
by salting and gutting frames. A
strange scene of industry and varied
confusion and noise is here on a busy
day. The boats with the fish lie clote
in -shore while the crews discharge the
scaly loads, which are at once attacked
by the ba,nds of gutting women, and
there and then salted and packed away
for immedtate shipment. Truly a
grimy sight, pot pleasant to the ,eye er
sensitive nerves, but gladdening to the
men that vdshes well to his kind.
good fishine means food and clothing to.
many a poor. creature that otherwiee
would laiive none. One half the world
does not know how the other half lives.
It may be all very well for us that
never needle put our gentle hands to
such work to call it slimy and dirty;
but if we knew what .grinding poverty
is, and what it is to go supperlees and.
dinnerless, to eat our scanty meal nee
knowing where our next will come
from, our hearts would leap with joy at
seeing men. and women earning ste
honest peney.
The sight cif these poor woeaent work.
—On the evening of Sat& ay, 7th
inst, as Mr. W. Speare of Ht bera ac-
companied by his little son, was return-
ing after delivering a number of lambs
to Mr. Shillinglaw, they drodei into the
river for the purpose of Wii. ering the
horses, and removed the bit from the
month of one of the anima it, when
both took fright and started off at a
furious rate, throwing the so from the
vehicle, of which they.made complete
wreck, and breaking his leg bove the
ankle. The little fellow was immedi-
ately taken home, and Dr. oTavish
called in, who set the limb,ar at last
