SPRING/ SHOWS
MULLETT SHOW.
The annual spring show of entire stock
tinder the auspices of the Hullett Agri-
cultural eociety, took piece on the market
anua.re, here, on Tuesday last, and not-
withstanding the inclemency of the Wea-
ther there was a large gathering of spec-
tators, but the show •of horses was less
numerous than it would, otherwise have
been, several being in townbut the pro-
prietors not caring to bring them out,-'
lsrearly all the horses, shown have such
superior merits that it is difficult to the -
'criminate between them, and the position
Of &judge is not • an •enviable elle, The
horses that reeeived prizes were entitled
to them; but perhaps their places would
be ehtinged tinder other judges. The
Messrs, Fisher's • horses are ;certainly
splendid ones and, deserve all the credit
they ge.t. J. P. Fisher's Percheron is a
fine animal; and so is. Mr. Green's, and
some would prefer the. latter on account
of its color -black, The Messri713-Weem's
horses were highly spoken of and attract-
ed a good deal of attendee,. Messrs. Mc-
Farlane and McEwen are certainly fortu-
nate in obtaining two such fine animals,
the one that obtained 2nd prize in the 3
year olds, was pronounced by many as
the moat perfect animal they had ever.
seen. The yearlings exhibited, in con-
nection With 111r. Fisher's horse were very
fine ones, and spoke well for his • horse. -
The Messrs. Tiplady, of - the base line,
owned one each, and they, \vele beauties,
The show of hulls was a very good otie,
and should have been seen to be appre-
ciated, and the breeders and owners .or
them deserve much better prizes and
greater credit than they get, as they 'are
a pleasing sight to. see and a source of
great profit to the country.
