SMITHFIELD CLUB CATTLE SHOW.

Yesterday, this exhibition wu opened to the
public, and notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the
weather, the attendants was extremely numerous. The
general feeling which seemed to prevail amongst the dealers
was that the " feeder." as well as " breeders" had attained
to greater perfection in their art duriog the present year than
for a eusiderable time put, and it was observed that a larger
number of sales was affected on Okla, the first day, than at
any former period.
At 1 o'clock the annul meeting of the members of the
dub took place at the Rum. The Duke of Richmond,
president of the emb, occupied the chair: and amour the
'deer gentlemen present we noticed Col. Stbthorp. M P.,
Kr. I. Webb. Mr. P. Hobbs, Mr. Brandreth, Mr. Bargees,
kr. Turner. Mr. Grantham, te.
The noble Chairman, in opening the proceedings, con-
gratul►ted the members ■p.a the distinguished honour
conferred on the club by the vi-it of her most gracious
Majesty and the Prince Consort on the previous day lie
had it co command to communion!' to them her Mejeety'a
OreeCiOUß approve! of all she had wttneesed, and he wee sore
that the coantanance given to the exhibition by the Queen's
visit would only have the effect of increasing their endea-
vours successfully to carry out the ehjecU of the Smithfield
Club.
wee received with marked

The noble duke's
satisfac ion by the members.
The officers of the club having been ro-sleeted for 1411
amine year, and the awards confirmed, several notices of
motion were given, which will come on for discussion on
Thursday nest.
The only matter positively arranged was an alteration Is
the die from which the club medal has hitherto been struck.
Op to this year the Maynea has ham formed by a m•dallien
et the late Eat Spencer, the original president of the club,
less reverse being occupied by an Inscription. It was
yesterday proposed, and unanimously adopted, that a new
die should be struck, wick a medallic's portrait of his grace
the Duke of II chmend to be substituted for the inscription,
which, by an ingenious arrangement, will be eog
round the edge of the medal. The ordinary routine baskets
having bean cone:tided, the meeting was adjourned until to-
morrow.
The following were among the principal purchases of prise
beasts made up to oil o'cl.ek last cycling: Mr. W. Heath's
2 years and 10 months old Hereford on was bought by Mr.
T. Slater, of Kensington, for 061.; the Earl of Harderilts's
3 years and 10 months old Durham on (sae of the very finest
animals In the yard, sold for WI to Mr. Bottenll, of Roches-
ter; Mr. Poilipp's Hereford ox, bought by Mr Glass, of
Lambeth walk; Mr. Tucker's Devon ex, by Mr. King, of
Paddingtou-str, at ; his R ',al Highness Prince Albert's
Hereford on, by Mr. Jeffrey, of Pouhert's-place, Regatt-
a/est ; the Earl of Aylisfurd'e North Devon on, by Mesas.
Hinkley and Hancock, of Park-Ereet, purveyors to the
Qum ; Mr. Bend's Devon steer, by Mr. Marabou, of Mils
inscdroad ; Lord Fevenham's short-horned heifer, by Mr.
Cragg, of Mounte•rest; Mr. Gooch's shorthorned heifer,
by Mr. Colledge, of Northampton. These were the peal
pal purchases in the cattle climes. The sheep did nut 641 so
well as the cattle. Thine that wars sold realised from 61. to
61. each. The best pigs in the yard were bought by Mr.
llogmaier of St. George's-in-the-East, Mr. W,lloock's, of
Tottenham court road, and Mr. Well, of Jermyn street,
being also large purchasers of these aalorals.
An interesting feature in the exhibition was a model of the
new cattle maga, suggested by the corporation el London.
It appears that the great object of the projectors is to retain
the present site In Smithfield, but to make such alterations
and modifications as shall remove those "nuisances" which
li.ve bean so often complained of. In order to effect this
purpose they propels to destroy West street, Cowcross-
street, Stsup'ealley, and other ea:tiptoes plates, where
kasckers and bone boilers .• most do congregate," and to
make the market an enclosed space, with no thoroughfares,
as at present 'gating; the area to be enlarged to such an
trait that it would be capable of accommodating 6,000 oxen,
instead of 2,700 as now, and 36,000 sheep, instead of 30,000 ;
and there would moreover be an allotted space, 'diffident to'
amain 1,000 oxen and a considerable number of sheep, in
the event of their remaining unsold, so that the difficulty of
removing them at an incdreenient time may be avoided.
It is also proposed to construct a sewer tn the market, to be
kept distinct from the public 'ewers, and be discharged at
Bleckfrisra bridge, where barges are to be in readiness for
the purpose. Many other improvements upon the present
maket are also suggested a this plan, and amongst them
it should be mentioned that the various compartments or
"stalls " will be ranged together in a lees complicated Toro ;
and the general design comprise. many tasteful buildings,
which are intended to give a picturesqueness to the locality.
The principal part of the proposed new market will occupy
the w,st and north west portion of the present sill, and it
is suggated that Newest* Market shall be sopseseded by a
handsome building 14 the immediate neighbourhood. The
model, as exhibited yesterday, situated much notice.
