THE SUN, LoN_Dorz, FRIDAY EVENI JUNE 27, 1852

then traced the history of the efforts for the repeal
of the hop duties from their earliest period to the
present time, and concluded by proposing " The
Health of the Chairman."

accepted by the committee. Mr. Valiance moved
that the report should be printed, and that an early
day should be named to discuss it, as be said that
the London; Chatham', and Dover Railway Com-
pany could not proceed with their bridge until the
corporation had detided upon the character of
bridge they intended to erect, as it was agreed by
all the engineers that it was most essential that the
piers of the two bridges should be exactly parallel
with each other.

proved a simultaneous success at Islington. Now
that Dukes contribute their hounds—unmatched in
scent, stanchness, end fleetness—and Marchio-
nesses act as umpires upon the merits of pet pup-
1,
pies, it is not the canine fancy, but a throng of
carriage company, that is visiting our new and
presently-to-be-beautiful Ag,rieuliural Han, to
court the acquaintance of novel varieties or. rare
individual specimens of the hunting, guarding,
fighting, toying, faithful, indispensable dog. A
brief analysis of the show has already informed
our readers of the extraordinary interest attaching
to a Menagerie such as was never before put in cages
or held in chains and collars. But we-again com-
mend this treat of the North of England Society,
lest any one should inadvertently lose .the opportu-
nity, te-;lay and tomorrow, of inspecting an un-
precedented collection of dogs of sport, of glorying
over the pride of a bloodhound -and.the strength of
an Alpine mastiff; of admiring the savagery of a
lip or the grace of a paw, and for the first:lime be-
holding the beauty, grotesqueness, .or mischiei,ous
littleness a many a companion and playmate of
man hitherto new to the English public.

The CHAIRMAN briefly responded, and subse-
quently the healths of Lord Harry Vane, Thomas
Neve, Esq., C. Sclater Booth, E‘q , M.P., T. L.
Punnett, Esq., and the Parliamentery agents were
proposed and warmly received.

Mr. DE JERSEY thought the court should not
be bound by the decision of the committee as to the
five plans they hod accepted, but that they should
have an opportunity of looking at the whole of the
plans that lied been sent in, and he should certainly
reserve to himself the right of proposing the adop-
tion of any plan that had not been accepted by the
Committee, if he considered it to be more eligible
than any of those accompanying the report. (Hear,
hear.)

After a short discussion it was proposed and car-
ried that the five accepted plans should be placed
in the court for the members to examine, and that
the rejected plans should be placed in different
committee rooms where they would he vc access to
them, and have an opportunity of considering them
also.

In quite a different direction—namely, at Farn-
ingham--epoint of great interest to-day will be the
public working of steam plough.F. Seven or eight
sets of machinery started yesterday ; but, though
many persons took tickets by the morning special
trans from Victoria and Battersea stations, some
difficulty was experienced at the end of the railway
ride in visiting the different fielde, Mr. Aveling
kindly conveying parties to the more distant scenes
of operation by means of his road locomotive_
These interesting and important trials demand a
few words on another occasion.

ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY'S

ROSE SHOW.

The Royal Horticultural Society's Rose Show
for the present year took place yesterday at the
Horticultural Gardens, South Kensington.
Notwithstanding the attractions--and they were
numerous and powerful enough—in other quarters,
the rose show secured more than ordinary patronage.
It was announced to open at 1 o'clock, and so much
anxiety existed to see it before the place became
crowded, that the great glass house and the tents
were crammed at 10 minutes past one, and before
half-past it became a matter of the greatest difficulty
to get near the roses; from that time till evening
the visitors continued to arrive with great rapidity,
and the scene became one of the gayest and the
most lively character. The sun shone out brilliantly
upon the delightful, though provokingly neat
Horticultural Gardens, and on the brilliant and
fashionable company, who having squeezed
through the rose show, not unwillingly betook
themselves to the gardens to feast upon
their beauties, to enjoy the delightful weather (the
oppol tunities for doing which have of late been in-
deed•few), and to listen to the excellent music per-
formed by the band of the Royal Artillery.
As to the show itself, it is impossible for an
exhibition of any kind of roses to be disagreeable ;
but when, on the occasion, we have displayed about
700 trusses of the choicest roses, and about 70
trusses of entirely new varieties of this flower, in
addition to a large number
.of rose trees in full
bloom in pots, and all tastefully arranged, the scene
presented becomes exceedingly interesting, and can
only be fully appreciated by those who have wit-
nessed it and enjoyed the fragrant odours which are
wafted from the blossoms through the tent, and
even into the surrounding atmosphere beyond
them. It is unnecessary for us to add that the
show was a great success, though it will doubtless
be far surpassed by the mixed show of Wednesday
next, and it is equally unnecessary to particularise
the exhibits of any individual, for the prize list to
be found below may be safely looked to as the in-
dex to the merit of each exhibitlr,--e.:,,,Wartg of
