BHERRORNE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.

The show of stock, and dinner of the Agricultural
Society, were held or Thursday—nearly a month in
advance of the usual time, t fit in with the alteration
of the date of the Ye .vil Show. All exhibitors
admit the convenience rd the arrangement by which
the stock shown st one show cu be sent on next day
te the other, and although Yeovil wanted to stand
alone in its dignity, and gr clean away from all the other
shows, this ii not likely to be allowed. Much of the '
k shown at Sherburne was sent on next day and
shea net Yeorit—the sheep of Mr. C. Bugg, of Tarrant
flint ,n, and of Mr. Homer, the ox of Mr. Butt, the
heifers of Mr. Fryer and Mr. James, of Mappowder,
the pigs of Mr. Itenisfield and Mr. Corp, anti many
of the horses. Jumping in the park attracted • large
part of the la des and gentlemen.
At the dinner afterwards held, under the presidency
of Sir Richard Glyn, there was a slight spar over the
management, sums little dissatisfaction being felt that
only (!) Elso were distributed in prizes, and that the
chArman wa, not hew,. gupporteri, although there
were five clergymen, one of the magistrates, and some
officers present. Mr. Bell, of Gillingham, thought
they wanted a little p rlitical dynamite, such as tbey
used at Gillingham an l ShafternrirY, and suggested to
the Hon. Secretary that he should retire on a testi-
menial, to which he would be happy ti subscribe a
guinea. Mr Langtion rep tad he had a testimonial,
and he wouldn't hsve Mr. Itell's guinea. One of the
clergymen present caused r ~,rs of laughter by roptuli.
