BATH AND WEST OF ENGLAND SHOW.

[FROII Mt OWN ILEPORTZES.]

The show yard looked rather quiet and tame- this
morning a. we steamed into the statics hy the South-
Western line, and the whole impressiou which the city
itself affords up to this hear (noon) is one of unusual
dullness for such an °tension. There are certainly • pro-
Upton of mem at the station but they us poorly employed.
No excursion trains run to-day and even the implement
makers frees any cousiderable distance averse to leaving
bows on the Sunday, will in the onjority of iodation
nQt he forward till afternoon. Machinery is, however,
igettiog into motion, Clayton, Sbuttlewortb, and Co..

being already in full operation, but on the whole then
seems to be a general feeling of postponement till to-
morrow. On entering the ground the most extebeive
