A herd of beautiful Devon' Cows,' belonging to
Mr. Coke, were 'snext inspe&ed; and were -much
admired 'by theT amateurs for their symmetry and
,lightness of bone and'offal. The dippers were now
proceeding with the TupS intended to be let in the
evening, and which were previously examined in
-their Wool by the breeders and amateurs. :-
Mr.-Powell, of Brownthorp,. skewed a shearling
SouthDowu Rain against another belonging to Mr.
Dewings, of Castle -Acre, in order to decide a, bet
between those Gentlemen., The Judges appointed
decided in' favour of Mr. Powell and it, was re-
gretted that the excellent Top which he -produced
was not eptered a candidate for Mr. Cokifivre.
mium in this Class of live stock. '

the company now repaired to the field to witness •
the trial of the.agriCultural implements inspeded on
the preceding day., The cOnch,harrow pertimned
much to the .atisfatiion of those present. Mr. ,Fu-
key's Ardor succeeded very completely in gathering
the couch roots from a soil previously pulverised: A
Scuffler of cumbrous make, drawn by four horses,:
cut the land.. very, deep on :which it was tried, but
seemed more calculated for heavy' soils.,: A strong
Plough for bottoming tap hard dry, land, teas.tried, ,
and seemed, from the attention wltichSir John Sias-
clair and °then. of'the best judges paid to it, to be
thought, with.a slight alteration; a valuable irople7
meat. • '
.•

Mr. Parkinson exhibited s a Scalier, which was
tried ; but we heard no particular opinion expressed
by those who witnessed the trial. The ono-horse
Plough seemed to justify the expeftation formed.of
it for,stirring.light lands. -

. About fo—ur o'clock 170' persons-sat down with
Mr. Coke to dinner, at the, conclusion of which the
Judges' Reports on:-the merits of the cattle, impie
ments, &c. produced by' the several Candidates,
were read, and silver cups were delivered to' several.
In the evening the company repaired again, to the
Farm-yard, to a sale of four Devon Heifers, which
sold for 10, 13, 13, and l 5 guineas, respeeliv.ely,
A Devon two-:years old Bull was next said for •23
guineas, and another for sguineas.
Three aged Bouth-Down 'Tups were then -let for

This highly interesting fete concluded by, a shOw
of some Merino RamS, belonging to Mr. Coke,
which gaVe great satisfaaiou to all whokneW the
importance of producing superfino, or Spanish 'wool,
for the use of our broad-cloth manufaaurers. About
nine o'clock the company separated, and Mr. COke's
visitors returned with him
,to the Hall ; next morn-
ing several of the amateurs set off from thence on a
tour, in order to visit some of the principal NOrfolk
Agriculturists, and thence to those of Lincolnshire,
Yorkshire, Durham, and Northumberland,.-so as to
arrive at Barmoor Castle, the'seat of Francis Sitwell,
