Calvenrell, M.D. THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY $ EXHIBITION Ar currisaaar It is always considered to be rather a difficult task to please everybody, and the Royal Agricultural Society have bees no more sucoeseful than their neighbours in solving the problem. Fault was found with them in the first inatanoe for their specifications.' the sort of machinery which wee to compete for prises, which were pronounced to be entirely beyond the collective comprehensioa of the machine-makers of England, awl the consequence was that some of the most prominent firms refused to send in • threshing-machine, • steam-plough, or even • turnip. cutter to the show. Then, fault was found with the site of the exhibition, as being a sort of no man's land, which was out of everybody's way --rather a cruel criticism on • floe old cathedral city like Canterbury, which has the noblest church, the grimest Norman keep, and the most complete assortment of back laces of any city in the United Kingdom. To our judgment it seemed a delightful place for Smithfield show to go out to for • day's summer excursion, and the citizens themselves had left nothing undone to make their 'orient town worthy of so great an occasion. Few people who travel much in the country have failed to notice the normal depression of spirits that seems to weigh down the inhabitant* of cathedral cities generally ; but that could never have been more striking than the contrast that was exhibited in Canterbury yarterday morning, from the com mencement of the great exhibition. The whole city bad broken out in bunting of various colours, including the French tricolor, Italian ditto, English union jack, a carious banner that must have belonged either to the Sublime Porte or the Lonl Mayor of Loudon, and the American "star. spangled," with the addition in some came of ► portrait of Mr. John C. Heenan. These gay and many coloured flee filled all the streets, whilst laurel decorated all the doorways, and every one in the townwasevidently out on the fiagways, • watching the arrivals from London sad elsewhere, who were combs, to Canterbury to see the collections, animal and mechasisal, of the Royal Agricultural Society, sad, w h a t was bettor, to do • little trade with the natives, &c -ombos to a moderate tariff, which the latter had eceeei &irately arranged for this special mania& The armee. meats made for refreshing the travellers appeared to have bees trial,' on an enormous scale, the whole way from the town to the exhibition ground being lined with booths on both sides, and within the barriers the moves hotels were mach more numerous and deputious than at the rifle match at Wimbledon. The fact was that the caterers knew the farmers were coming, and that the agricultural stomach was an instrummt et peat vigour for the destruction d eatables and drinkable., especially when the proprietors had travelled so far from home for a holiday. We omenot say that on arriving at the barriers, where We reeepised sous of the well-known fame of the A division hesplng emir, we fogad the crush at Ell ressenhbas that of • amp 1 night at the opera It was the fret public day, sad the eranicil had thought tie atirsolione of the Pint ex hibitions salient to bear • charge of Ts. 6d. for admissina, but the public were evidently of • different opinion, as the attendance was asything but surnames during the day, although there was both la the asachises sad is the live stock quite sufficient &Wax-tics to Justify the expectation of • large attendance. The exhibition is arranged in a larp teld„ in the matey of which are two vest open ,pladranglee„ LONDON, TUESDAY EVENIRGF, JULY 10, 1860. the one devoted to the machinery and the other to the live stock. On one wide, under the trees to the left, is what might be taken for • end of indignation meeting of smell steam amass, all palling, snorting, and competing, and each perfonolignehard-of testa in the threshing of corn, the cutting of turnips, cr theploughing of farrows of mathematical nicety. We looked through the machinery first, because we first came to it, and because here it was • legitimate subject of antilop; having fairly competed for the prism. It was imps Bible not to be struck by the number and ingenuity of the various contrivances for the saving of human labour, or to avoid reflecting on the great and bene. tidal changes which their general use must effect for the English people. They will not, probably, cause ono man I lass to be employed, but they will enable the fanner to produce a great deal more food, and thus better to keep pace with the demand, which has so much baffled him of late years. There will be as many men employed as before, but they will be employed • skilled and not merely muscular labour, having already, as we were informed, quite surprised the scientific engineers by the aptitude with which they in a moment fell into the management of the most intricate machine. Fowler's twelve-hone set of steam cultivating apparatus, which obtained the great prize of 90/., is • most farmidablnlooking engine, quite like one of the pent knomotives an • railway. It will do the work of 40 sr DO men, and yet it is managed by an ordinary tarn labourer, who never bad any previous instruction. The' sales remark m►y be applied to Mesas. Robey's set of steam ploughing tackle, which obtained the second prize, and which is always managed by the ordinary man of the farm. The farmers have now quite given in their adhe. lion to the steam plough, and wherever the holding is large enough to bear the outlsy purchase one at once. This, of course, will lead ultimately to the consolidation of farms, but in the meantime great advantage might be de rived from the establishment of depots in various parts of the oountry, where the expensive machines could be let out on hire to the farmers of a hundred and two hundred acres. There is already a great scarcity of men felt, not only in England, but all over the continent, and as in an English harvest time is everythiag, the point we have now touched on should not be lost sight of by the society. Next to the steam ploughe, the mowers sod reapers of Mara. Burgess and Key probably attracted most attention. It is now nearly ten years since the American reaping machine was one of the greatest wonders of the Great Exhibition in Hyde Park, and ever since that time Messrs. Burgess and Key, who became its proprietors, have devoted their whole time and talents to bringing it to its present state of perfection. Lord Eversley and Sir William Miles honoured this stand with a long visit yesterday, and expressed themselves exceedingly pleased with the recent improvements. We believe that the use of these machines is increasing everywhere, the de mand far exceeding the supply, and that in this year's hay masking they have been found of immense advantage in getting the grass cut between the showers. In the next stand to Mews. Burger's • new American machine which professes to be a mower and reaper was exibited, but its performance did not quite grisly the judges, sad the Boa decision has been suspended until after harvest. A number of small steam engines of moderate price, and admirably adapted for the more mode rate sized farms, are exhibited by Mr. James Haywood, of the Phoenix works, Derby, one of the makers who was prevented from competing by the ambiguous wording of the society's specification. This firm also exhibits an improved threshing machine, which performs its work so completely that the corn having pulsed through it is completely reedy for the market. Many of the small steam engines of Mr. Haywood's firm have been sent to Australia tothe gold diggings end to Ireland, where their very moderate price makes them especially suitable. Combining the useful with the ornamental, the grin also exhibit on assortment of new sal beautiful designs in iron garden furniture, which amongst farmers who use the steam plough end the reaping ware will not we suspect be too long in Sr &lag • market. The Messrs. Turner have obtained prises for various applications of steam power to agricultural purposes, and, indeed, judging from this year's exhibition et Canter bury, it is hardly too much to anticipate that the use of steam will before long enter into almost all the operations of the farm. It would of course be impossible to go in dehul through such • "century of inventions "as we saw collected yesterday on Canterbury-green, and therefore we must, with one exception to which we are about to allude, content ourselves by the general assurance that they are all of obvious utility, nearly all workable by steam, and that as we learned from most reliable sources they are coming to be more and more used every day by the farmers. The sleep. tion is a small Ericsson air engine, which has been sent over to Englund for the inspection of the society. It will be remembered that poor Ericsson failed—he died of a broken heart because he failed—in propelling marine engines by means of air, solely because he could not get up sufficient power; but the power which wee insufficient to propel a ship through the water might be made of immense value in the operations of a farm, and it is the opinion of very skilled and able judges that this engine of Erics son, from its cheapness, economy of fuel, and ■mall size, might become of immense value in the tillage of the smaller farms. We believe we are justified is saying that Mr. Amos, the society's engineer, has • high opinion of this little engine, and thinks that with a little English nursing it might be made a real blessing to farmers. A noteworthy feature in the machine exhibition also is an extensive display of the American sewing ma chines, which are becoming as popular with the farmers' wives as are the steam ploughs and steam engines of Mr. Fowler and Mr. Haywood with „ their bosoms' lords." Next in position, but certainly not second in importance, we mashed the cattle show, where were ranged in goodly rows the sires and dams from whose families the Smithfield exhibition expects to select its Christmas attrac tions. This section of the exhibition was certainly well worth a visit to Canterbury, as probably finer specimens of breeding stock were never exhibited than those which ob tained the principal prizes. Mr. liarthrop's cheenut colt, which obtained the first prize for cart-horses, is a perfect specimen of the famous " Suffolk Punch." He was picked out as probable first-prize holder by every one who came tato the yard, and was the " cynosure of neighbouring eyes" throughout the day. But although the judge's award was in this instance ratified by general assent, it was not so fortunate in other iustanties, and much astonishment was expressed that another noble chesnut, the pro perty of Mr. Hare, of Ipswich, and which had obtained the first prize at a recent exhibition, should have been completely overlooked. If the innocent "Goliath," the bone's most appropriate name, was left out of the prim list merely for the luxury of snubbing a previous jury, al we can say is that poor Goliath was here made the victim of a policy of very doubtful prudence. In the honed cattle, Colonel Towneley has obtained the first prize, for one of those beautiful " Butterflies" which have made him so f•mous. The original " Butterfly" was sent to Aus tralia, but the present one is his brother, and fully sustains the credit of the family, being a noble bull, perfect in everything but his resemblance to the airy flutterer from whom he takes his name. Perhaps the greatest catastrophe of the exhibition has fallen on the Sonthdowns, in which clam Mr. Rigilen's name is not even mentioned, and the Duke of Richmond is completely extinguished by Mr. Jones Webb, who takes this year no less than five prizes. Of the boars it is hardly possible to say too much. They seemed much more comfortable in the daylight and open air than do their relatives in their hot gas light pens in the Portman-street Bazaar, and get up when . . . . - - required, to be poked, with much readiness and urbanity. Very interesting features in the show ere the milch cows, each attended by her calf, and the mares by their foals ; but so numerous are the specimens that it would be quite impossible to notice them in detail. They had all been brought to the ground by the South Fester° Railway Com pany in admirable condition, and the directors have made equally careful arrangements for the enormous influx which is expected during the remaining days of the show.

NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION. defence, is in reality a movement of a peaceful characte and is the best security for the maintenance of peace. (Hear, hear.) Animated, therefore, by this common object, we heartily welcome the Swiss gentlemen who have come over here. We desire no rivalry with them except the friendly rivalry of the shooting match—(hear)—and we are heartily glad that they have been able to vindicate their ancient reputation, while, at the same time certainly, wes who have but just begun to follow this noble pursuit, may be justly proud that we have not been found unworthy in this competition to rival those who for so many years have made the rifle their favourite arm. I will not longer detain you from the interesting ceremony you desire to see, when you will be able to perceive who were the victors in this great national contest who are about to receive the prizes they have so worthily earned. I have only, in conclusion, there fore, to congratulate you on the various events in con nexion with the volunteer movement that have taken place within the last few weeks. (Hear.) Upon thew events every man in England may look back with the greatest satisfaction, whether he remembers the serried files that marched peat her Majesty on the last day of June, or whether he looks to the successful and remarkable competition in rifle shooting last week at Wimbledon—in both these cir cumstances there is cause for warm congratulation. (Hear, hear.) But it should be remembered that this is but the commencement of a great national movement, and it rests with you—the people of this country--to determine whether you will render it of really national importance by fulfilling by your efforts 'and your nipped the motto that has been adopted by the National Rifle Association, " Sit perpetuurn " (Cheers.)

Each winner as be came up was loudly cheered, but the ovation to the Swiss was in each case especially enthusiastic. The Nears LORD in presenting the Queen's prize to Mr. Ross, rid he was desirous of correcting an error which pre vailed in regard to that gentleman's place of birth. It had been stated in the printed lists, and in the newspapers, that Mr. Rosa belonged to the 7th North Yorkshire Volunteer Rifles, and his noble friend (Lord De Grey and Ripon) being a Yorkshireman, had been congratulating himself that the first prize, together with the medal of the association, had been gained by a countryman of his own. He (Lord Elcho) was, however, happy to say that Mr. Ross came front much farther north, and that he was a pure Scot. (" Hear, hear," and a laugh.) And he would only add, that if next year the Englishmen allowed • Soot to carry off the gold medal, as they had done this year, it would be a disgrace to them. Earl Dm Om and Rime remarked that if a Sootchman had won the prise he had had a Yorkshire training to enable him to do so. (A laugh.) Lord &CHO —lty friend, Mr. RPM, was trained in hie own father's orate, and that father was a Scotchman, and a famous deer-stalker. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Rom who seemed to enjoy this dispute about tido origin of his ability, was warmly congratulated by the noble- men and gentlemen on the platform, and loudly cheered by his confreres, both English and Swiss. Lord Ei.cuo was anxious before the company separated to s►y a few words on beloilf of the association in addition to what had fallen from his noble friend Lord De Grey. In DIifi'RIBUTION OF PRIZES. Our first great national gathering of eharpehootees was brought to • conclusion yesterday, when the well-earned 1 prizes, awarded to the sniaseeetul competitors, were dis tributed at the Crystal Palace. Her Majesty having witk gnu:ions oondemealiosperformed ttuart of the imegural genies in opening ilienberlTlMlleidoli, it Wit teeter hoped that it would have accorded with the royal con venience to give additional value to the honours achieved by the victors in the friendly contest, by conferring the rewards by the sovereign's own hand. Nor would any com mittee to search for precedents have been neces sary to justify such • course, for unless our old chronicles sadly belie the facts, it was ►lways the rule in ancient passages of arms for the queen of the tournament (who in the prelent, instance was the Queen of England) to bind upon the conqueror's brow the wreath of victory. On the other hand, we know there were good and sufficient reserve for her Majesty's absence, one of which— and this applies equally to the Prince Consort and the other members of the royal family— we need scarcely say, is the departure on the same day of her eldest son, the Prince of Wales, upon his transatlantic tour. But although this closing Beene of the interesting and exciting drama of the past eight days was wanting in the prestige which the pre sence of royalty always confers, the object of the meeting was of itself sufficiently attractive to draw to the Crystal Palace crowds almost as great as those which attended at Wimbledon on Monday to witness the opening ceremonial. The locus quo of the distribution was the Handel Orchestra in the centre transept, which was fitted up as a sort of stage for the occasion. In front, raised somewhat above the floor of the building, were two table., on which were ranged the 'Whitworth and other rifles, butt end to the audience, and • formidable stand or rather stands of arms they constituted. On one of the tables glittered in all its burnished brightness the silver cup given by the lit London Rifle Brigade as the second prize in the Prince Consort's match for all comers. Around the semi-circular enclosure forming the outside boundary of the orchestra were innumerable elliptical panels, bearing in white letters upon • bright red ground the names of the several corps represented at the tourney. In the centre, in front of the organ, the motto, "Defence, not Defiance," was emblazoned in large cha racters, on either side of which the names of the " Middle sex" and "Surrey" corps figured as supporters. The body of the transept was appropriated as reserved seats, all of which were occupied, although neither here nor in any part of the palace, except the gallery seat• in the orchestra, were there so many rifle uniforms as might have been anticipated. The bands of the three regiments of Guards were in attendance, and under the able direction of Mr. Godfrey, men., performed several overtures and other pieces with great accuracy and taste. There was • centre chair raised as • place of honour, and which, from its rich gilding and handsome decorations, ked evidently been prepared in the expectation that it would be honoured as the seat, if not of Majesty itself, at least of • royal Commander-in-Chief. For some time, however, it seemed destined to remain unoccupied altogether. It was announced in the programme that Mr. Secretary Sidney Her bert, the head of the War Department, would, in the abeenoe of her Majesty and the Duke of Cambridge, do the honours on the occasion as the next appropriate person, and the time fixed was punctually three o'clock. Three o'clock came, and half-past three, when Earl de Grey and Ripon, the Under Secretary for War, finding that there was no chance of the presence of his chief, and having, as he explained in his speech, received au intimation that he would not be able to attend, took the chair and commenced the business. After some preliminary formalities, the noble lord addressed the meeting as follows : Ladies and gentlemen,—ln opening the proceedings of the day I have in the first place to express to you the sincere regret of my right hon. friend Mr. Sidney Herbert that he should be prevented by public official duties which require his attendance at an early period of this afternoon in the Howe of Commons, from being able, as he hoped, to be present at and to preside on this °cession. He has, therefore, deputed me, as one of the vice-presidents of the Na tional Rifle Association, and as his official deputy, to repre sent him, though I fear unworthily, here to-day. (Hear, hear.) And he has desired me to assure you that it is with extreme sorrow that he found himself unable to witness the interesting ceremony which has called us together. (Hear.) I need hardly assure you of his regret, because all who know what is the cause which bar brought us here must feel that it is an occasion that cannot fail to excite the deepest interest in the breast of every Englishman. (Loud chews.) Oily eighteen months ago we should have had no right to nay that the rifle was the national ,weapon of the English nation, or that rifle shooting was a favourite and popular movement among us. (Hear, hear.) But a complete change has taken place since that time, and, by the efforts of the National Rifle Asso ciationacting as the exponent of public opinion, in the short apses of a year we bare been able to produce those somas which have taken place at Wimbledon during the part week, and which have inaugurated this great movement in our country. (Cheers.) The National Rifle Association when it was first formed had mainly in view, no doubt, to promote the progress and the advance of the great volunteer movement in this country—but the competition of the but week has not been confined only to the members of the volunteer corps. Many of the prizes have been open also to all comers, but nevertheless it is mainly in connexion with the volunteer movement that this association has a right to claim public interest and public support. (Hear.) There is no doubt that rifle shooting is not the only object of the volunteer—that he cannot dispense with drill—but, on the other hand, drill will not alone suffice him, because, gifted r the volunteer force is with as in- Unifiers beyond the mar of other military fames, it is peculiarly needful that they should exercise that intelligence in learning the use of that weapon which has been placed in their hand' by the government, and which the results of the recent competitior have proved to be such an admirable one. (Hear, hear.) On this account it is that my right hon. friend the Secretary of State for War felt that be was not only discharging a duty pleasing to himself as an individual when he became president of the association, but that he wee also discharging his public duty by giving his sanction to those efforts as a minister of the crown. (Cheers.) This association is not, however, de pendent on the support of the government—it does not look to the government fonds for its assistanoe—it prefers to rely on the aid of the British people ; and while it is mac. timed by the government and consecrated by the Sovereign, it is to the British public alone it must look for support and maintenance. (Hear, hear.) But, ladies and gentlemen, not only has this occasion a deep national interest and importance, as pointing out that for the future this English nation will be a nation trained to the use of the rifle—and every man in England I trust will, before long, be able to wield that powerful weapon—but, it is a deep in tenet for another reason : there have been present at Wimbledon, during the past week, contending—and con tending successfully—for the prizes now about to be dis tributed, a large number of gentlemen who have come over to this country from Switzerland. (Cheers.) Allow me heertily to ociagratulate you on that circumstance. The Swims in their rids pewter, and we in ours, have a emu= object. We do or either of us seek to train the people of this country, or of Switeerlaral, to the use of this weapon for aggressive purposes. (Chews.) But both of us believe theta training of this doeription, intended only for national
