REVIEWS ON THE WORK.

`•Curtis on Manhood,—This is a truly valuable work, and
should be in the hands of young and old."—" Sunday Times,"
2.1 d March, 1856.
"The author has conferred a great boon by publishing this
little work, in which is described the source of those diseases
which produce decline in youth or more frequently premature
old age."—" Daily Telegraph," March 27, 1856.
" This work, which for twenty years has stood the test of
professional criticism and empirical hostility, treatis in aplain
and sympathishy, manner on the various disqtAlifications
and impediments arising from nervous excitement and de-
bility ; and to invalids suffering from youthful errors and
excesses it will be found valuable and useful."—Record.

PERTH, THURSDAY.
The Inches aro two-park like meadows on which the
city dairy cows depasture and the children disport, along
the mar gin of the broad-flowing Tay, there the bare-ankled

" lair Maids of Perth" bleach their washing, and their
fathers haul in nets of leaping salmon ; and it is on the
South Inch that some 20 acres have been enclosed by the
boarding of the society's showyard. The implement de-
partment, already described, occupies the southern portion
of the ground ; on the north and east sides are the ranges
of horse-boxes ; and in the centre the substantial boarden-
roofed sheds for cattle, sheep, and pigs, together amount-
ing to more than a mile in length. Other sheds are occu-
pied by the poultry, the dairy produce, and the always
appreciated accessory of first and second classrefreshments-
The prizes awarded embrace £340 for cattle, £220 for
horses, £272 for sheep, £54 for swine, £5O for dairy pro-
duce, and £193 for implements, being a total of £1,135; to
which are added 238 gold, silver, and bronze medals. The
number of entries are—of cattle, 338; of horses, 155; of
sheep, 616 ; of swine, 79 ; of poultry, 360 ; and of dairy-
produce, 91. The cattle classes are divided for short-horn,
polled, Ayrshire, Highland, fat stock, and extra stock.
The handsome, red and white, white, or roan-coloured
shorthorn may never dispossess the black or dim-coloured,
rough-coated Scot from his native green glens under snow -
covered peaks in the loftier regions of North Britain, but
this pride of English breeds has now gained entire posses-
sion of all the arable districts in the south-eastern counties;

it is rapidly spreading along the whole lowlands of the east
coast, and is known in every arable tract throughout all
Scotland, and their importance is visible in the fact that no
less than 104 shorthorns aro entered, though only two are
from English exhibitors. Many very creditable animals
are observable, as the aged bulls of Mr. Cruickshank, of
Sittyton, Aberdeen, and Mr. Campbell, of Blackburn,
Aberdeen ; also the bull of Mr. Anderson, of Bridge of
Allan; the Duke of Montrose's bull in the same class;
Mr. Balfour's, of Prestonkirk, yearling bull; and especi-
ally the beautful yearling heifers of Mr. Douglas, of Drew,
which carry away all three prizes in their class. In the
aged cow class Mr. Booth, of Warlaby, of course, walks off
with a couple of prizes for his red and white " Queen of
the Vale," and his roan " Queen Mab," both splendid
specimens of what a short-horn eow should be. We were
sorry to find none of Captain Gunter's "Duchesses," nor
any specimen of the superb Towneley herd, and, indeed,
we cannot rank the entire show as one of peculiar merit.
The Highland breed of cattle have come up in some force,
there being 67 entries, and the individual excellence of so
many animals has never been equalled before. The com-
paratively moist climate, mild winter, and grassy wilds
of the Hebrides have developed and maintained the breed
of Kyloe or West Highland (or Island) cattle, adapted more
than any other for its peculiar feeding grounds ; hardy,
easily fed, and thriving on coarse herbage, in circumstances
where the daintier shorthorn could hardly exist. The
West Highla'id ox has a wide and deep chest, short mus-
cular limbs, long upturned horns, a thick coat of long
shaggy hair ; his flesh and fat are laid on equably in the
best parts, and the beef is of afine-grained, marbled, highly-
flavoured quality, that makes him a prime favourite with
the butcher. Of this breed there are differences in size—the
animals from Islay, the southernmost island, being the
largest, while the small Isle of Skye cattle are the most
valued for their hardiness, and are chiefly sought by the
pure breeders. The Duke of Athole, the Marquis of Brea-
dalbane, and Mr. Pollok, of Tarbert, show some remarkably
fine bulls ; and these eminent breeders are joined by the
Duke of Hamilton and Brandon, Lady Menzies, Mr.
M‘Laren, of Blair Athole, and others, in a rare show of cows
and heifers of this interesting and noble variety of domes-
ticated and developed native cattle.
The polled Galloway, native of Kirkcudbright and Dum-
fries, has been called " a Kyloe without horns," but is of
larger frame, more docile, and apter to fatten, adapted to a
lower range of grazing land. The excellence of the flesh,
more than ordinarily laid on in those parts which are good
for roasting, has made these Scots popular with English
graziers. The general form is compact, round, and deep,
with short clean legs, and the coat, of long, soft, silky hair,
is usually of a brown colour, though occasionally brindled
brown, or even dun or drab. The cows are good milkers,
the milk yielding a very large proportion of butter.
Aberdeenshire breeds and grazes more cattle than any
other county in Scotland ; for, while the climate on the
hills and on the ridges of the Grampians is cold enough, the
mildness and equality of temperature of the lowlands skirt-
ing the sea is comparable to that of south-eastern England.
The Highland cattle are in the elevated districts, and the
black or brindled Aberdeen breed, with hair shorter and
thinner, divides the remainder of the county with the intro-
duced short-horn and the now prevalent admirable cross of
the two. The Galloways, Aberdeenshire, and Angus cattle
are classed together as "Polled," there being 67 entries, Mr.
Lyell, of Kirriemuir, Mr. Walker, of Banff, trustees of Mr.
Robert Scott, of Brechin, &c., being prize•-takers.
The counties of Ayr, Renfrew, and Lanark, comprising a
fourth of the population of Scotland, and with a large extent
of coast washed by the Frith of Clyde and the North Chan-
nel, are well fitted, both by the demand for dairy produce
and the natural moisture of climate, for developing an un-
surpassed breed of mulch cattle. The Ayrshires, sleek-
skinned, red and white, with fine hoims twisting upwards,
having rather long faces, with docile expression, and white,
capacious udders, are not only splendid milkers upon little
food, but are extremely hardy, withstanding the severities
of winter in a bleak country, and responding with the
alacrity of a thriving disposition to the return of warm
weather and better keep. There are 67 entries of Ayrshires,
forming a particularly good show; Mr. M'Kean, of Bishop-
briggs, Mr. Stewart, of Strathaven, the Earl of Strath-
more, &c., taking honours.
Unlike our English meeting there is here a class of
fat stock—an important department for the grazier, and
and of peculiar significance in North Britain ; for, only a
century ago, when Glasgow had 30,000 inhabitants, the
slaughter of cattle for the supply of the public market was
wholly unknown, though at present both Glasgow and other
mat cities of Scotland e,,t their share of fresh meat in much
the same pr portion as we do in London. In this class we
observe many very heavy well-fed oxen, chiefly shorthorn

crosses.
In the Extra Stock class are some of the yellowish white
Abbel breed, with upturned horns, apparently descendants
of the aboriginal wild Caledonian cattle ; also some of the
fawn-coloured Alderneys, and specimens of the small Brit-
tany breed. The interesting Shetland breed is not repre-
sented. These Lilliputian cattle—lank and ill-shaped as
far as their figure is discernible through the long pile of
thick hair which covers them for protection against snow
and sleet, contrive to make themselves into beef most deli •
cious and tender, though only up to some 15 or 20 stones in
weight. They are not able to maintain health in the
southern lowlands, and are alone adapted to their inclement
island wildernesses of precipices, rocks, and pools.
Coming now to the sheep, it is observable that the fine-
spun British wool, likened by Roman historians to the
spider's thread, and which was woven into ceremonial robes
worn in the Imperial city, was not the produce of Cale-
donia; or, at any rate, the present native breeds of sheep
possess fleeces of a medium or middle-wool character. Three
distinct breeds apportion among them almost the entire sur-
face of Scotland. These are the black-faced, the Cheviots,
and the Leicesters.
Whether or not the black-faced or heather sheep was first
located in Ettrick Forest, it has become the prevailing
breed in districts of coarsest herbage and most ungenial
clime. The face and legs are mottled black and white ;
the massive horns have tiro or more spiral twists; the eye
is full of life and fire; the fleece, resembling in length of
staple some of the Lowland breeds, is somewhat coarse and
thinly set, the humid atmosphere of the northern sheep-
walks having the effect of lengthening and opening the wool.
The chief breeding districts are the hills of Lanark, Dum-
fries, and Ayr, supplying the graziers of the high and
stormy Grampians and other elevated regions. These
sheep are ready feeders, at about 161 b. per quarter, and oc-
casionally up to double that weight ; they have a large
proportion of loose tallow to the carcass, and their flesh
possesses more of a venison-like flavour than that of any
other breed. In extensive districts now cleared of men and
black cattle immense flocks of both black-faces cnd Cheviots
occupy the northern sheep 'walks, and fill the great fairs of
Donne and Falkirk, for sale to the Lothian and south-
country turnip farmer.
The little agile mountain sheep are alone capable of en-
during the deep snow-drifts through which they dig for a
scanty bit of mossy pasture ; they alone have the peculiar
instincts which warn them to rocky shelves and clefts on
sheltered declivities at the approach of the furious High-
land hurricanes; and indeed their habits are singular and
interesting—they mutually protect each other, and wild
ambledege

and the show is considered extraordinarily good. Among
the best pens are those of Mr. Campbell, of Lochgilhead,
Mr. MacLaren, of Monzie, Mr. Murray, of Pennicuik, &c.
The substitution of sweet and more nutritious grasses for
heath and rushes is enabling the Cheviot sheep to supplant
the black-face in many mountain districts, though the lat-
ter breed will always hold an immense tract in undisputed
possession. So rapidly have the Cheviots increased in the
Highlands since their introduction there by Sir John Sin-
clair,: that at Inverness fair upwards of 100,000 sheep, and
as many stones of wool, are yearly`disposed of, the greater
portion being of this breed. These sheep—with white faces
and legs, no horns, no wool on the head, rather long legs,
a long body, narrow chest, full large hind-quarters. and long
woolly tails—are natives of the steep trap hills in Northum-
berland and South Scotland, from which the breed is named ;
and the comparatively dry soil and good herbage have pro-
duced a short, close, and valuable quality of fleece, weigh-
ing about 41b. Greater attention has been bestowed upon
the Cheviot than upon the black-facedsheeplA improve

ment by selection in breeding, and good feeding and shep-
herding ; and latterly the demands of the wool market have
led to the development of the modern Cheviot fleece, longer,
heavier, more open, and less fine than formerly. The vast
variety in the physical aspect of the sheep .walks produces
shades of difference in the breeds best adapted to particular
localities, so that crosses between Leicester and Cheviot are
also largely in favour. There are 33 entries, Mr. Brydon,
of Langholm, and Mr. Barthwick, of the same place, being
the chief winners of prizes.

\Ye can hardly omit to notice another and singular
Scotch breed--not present, however, at the show. The tiny
sheep of the Shetland and Orkney Islands, weighing some
301 b. when fully fat, has to withstand the continual storms,
often so tremendous that the eagles hold on to the crags
by their talons ; and his fleece is therefore composed of two
coats, an inner one of gray wool or thick fur, with long
hair growing through it; and at the beginning of the sum-
mer season the sheep sheds the true wool, which is pulled
off by hand, not shorn, so as to leave the hairy mantle for
protection. This droll animal, wonderfully adapted by
nature to his habitat, feeds in the sharp winter months upon
sea-weed left by the sinking tide (the flocks perceiving by
instinct the time of the ebb),l and in times of pinching
scarcity will browse, it is said, even on dried fish and other
animal food.

The extent to which the Leicesters are being used for
crossing the native sheep appears in the change in the kind
of stock at the great border markets within 50 years. The
great lamb fairs of St. Boswell's and Melrose are mainly
supplied from the grazing districts of Berwick, Roxburgh,
Selkirk, and Peebles. Fcrmerly the one was composed of
pure Cheviots, and the other cif black-faces ; now not a
single Cheviot lamb is to be seen at St. Boswell's, or a
black-face at Melrose ; the former fair being now a show of
Leicesters or of Cheviot and Leicester crosses, while the
latter consists of Cheviots and tresses. Turnip-husbandry,
draining, and liming have created a greater demand for
store sheep to eat the enlarged quantities of focid, and
breeders are supplying the ever-increasing want by
improving the old sorts by selection, by crossing with
other varieties, or exchanging altogether for a more pro-
fitable description of animal. Leicesters occupy the larger
share of the sheep-pens in the yard, there being no less
than 111 entries ; the generality, however, bearing a very
different character to the well-known types of sym-
metry and fine quality that take prizes at our English show,
Mr. White, of Dunning; Mr. Beattie, of Annan ; Mr. Din-
ning, of Belford, Northumberland ; Mr. Simpson, of Lau-
der, &c., being specially great in the class.
Some 21 entries of Cotswolds, proposed for crossing with
the Cheviots, in which the Earl of Wemyss and March,
Lord Kinnaird, and Mr. Gibson, of Woolmet, are success-
ful; a show of 25 pens of SouthdoWns, in which the Duke
of Richmond, Mr. Scot Skirving, and the Earl of SOuthesk
win prizes; and a few extra stocktcomplete a good display
in the ovine classes.

Of the small show of pigs we have little to remark, ex-
cept that Mr. Harrison, of Heaton Norris, and Mr. Wain-
man, of Crosshills, are among the exhibitors.
If England may be proud of her massive dray and big
black carthorses, Scotland may justly boast of her Clydes-
dales. They are said to have originated in a cross of
the old native packhorse with some imported Dutch mares.
They are powerful 16-hands horses, with fine small heads
and great activity, their natural lively pace enabling
them to get through more ploughing in a day than
more sluggish breeds of draught animals, while no
description of horse is better adapted for single-horse
carts. The object of the improving the breeds
is to lessen their tendency to a light body and rather
too lengthy legs. The prevailing colours are bay and
brown with black legs, occasionally with one or more white
feet, and there are also many blacks and grays, and a tem
chestnuts. There are 129 entries, forming a splendid show,
the mares and three,year- olds being remarkably fine.
A few ponies and extra stock horses complete this
thoroughly business and agricultural portion of the show.
Of course the poultry are out of feather, but, with the
dairy department of "powdered butter," "imitation Eng-
lish" cheese, &c., they formed a focus of attraction for lady
visitors.

We missed the grand collections of seeds, roots, and
cereal specimens, &c., of Lawson and Son, of Edinburgh,
and other seedsmen, together with the stalls of flax, wool,
and other ageicultural productions, which add an interest to
our English meetings.
There has been a fair gatherinaof visitors, in spite of
weather like a late cold-stream entertainment that con-
verted a horticultural occasion into a shower-flow ; the
banquet passed off merrily under the presidency of his
grace the Duke of Atholl ; the ball of course will be decidedly
satisfactory, and the special trains are sure to bring in a
large concourse to-morrow,—possibly to relieve the minds
of implement makers, who are finding business dull at this
otherwise successful meeting.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

GOODWOOD RACES.-THURSDAY.

The beautiful trysting-place of the south of England ap-
peared yesterday to have more charms than ever for the
sightseers ; no one was alarmed at the murky appearance of
the miming ; but all mho love a race meeting in its holiday
garb hastened towards the Grand Stand. Right well were
they repaid for the troubles of the toilet and the journey, for
the sun broke forth before the sport commenced, and wel-
comed an enormous assemblage of smiling faces to the mossy
slopes of the prettiest race-course in England. Long before
the appointed time every seat was engaged, and a brilliant
day's sport was witnessed by a brilliant multitude. The Cup
was the all-absorbing topic of conversation, and betters were
busy on its result between the races which preceded it. Op.
timist went out of the market, and Starke advanced steadily
in favour, but nothing occurred to shake the firmness of the
Wizard and Thormanby• Several splendid contests took
place during the day, one of the finest being that for the
Bentinek Memorial, won by the Knight of St. Patrick. The
finest race of the day was that which ought to be the finest—
the Cup. So closely was that handsome vase contended fsr
by the American horse Starke, and the English horse the
Wizard, that bets were laid upon the issue even after they
had passed the winning-post. The Molecomb produced an
interesting race between three 2-yr-olds, in which Ace of
Clubs redeemed his lost laurels of Wednesday, and the other
2-yr-old stake, which closed the day's amusement, showed
Bertha, half• sister to Nutbourne, in a very favourable light,
for she won in the commonest of canters, and walked over
for her other engagement, which stood last upon the card,

Plumper made the running at a steady pace, followed by

rounding the turn out of the straight Plumper increased his
lead, Ebony at the same time ran into the second place, with
Rupee third and Roesia next, but on reaching the Craven
post
the three last closed and ran abreast to the top of the
hill, where Rupee, in company with Roesia, got uponbettir
terms with the leaders, Plumper still leading. On reaching
the distance Rupee was beaten, and Was passed by Roesia,
who went on in attendance upon the two leaders to half-
way in the rails, where Ebony was in difficulties, and at
the Stand was reached by Roesia, the pair gamely strug-
gling on to the end, but without a chance of the race,
Plumper winning in a canter by four lengths. Roesia,
running the longest, secured the second honours by a head;
Rupee was next, and Ellen last, but they did not pass the
post.

Pretendant and Surprise were struck out at 1.15 p.m.
Precisely at the time set down the horses left the post ;
Wallace made the =lag at a cracking pace, Starke lying

second, followed past the stand by Royallieu, Optimist, and
Wizard ; then came Thormanby, Doefoot, Lady Clifden, and
Mon Etoile in the order we have given to the hill, going up
which Wallace increased his lead considerably, and was up-
wards of six lengths in advance of Mr. Ten Broeck's horse
as they neared the Craven post, Royallieu going on third,
Wizard fourth, and Thormanby next, with the others fol-
lowing in Indian file, the last two being Lady Clifden and
Mon Etoile. On reappearing in sight Wallace was still in
possession of the lead, which gradually decreased as they
proceeded up the hill, Starke in company with Royal-
lieu, Wizard, Optimist, and Thormanby drawing towards
the front as they reached the brow. On rounding the turn
for home Wallace gave evident symptoms of distress, and,
although he gamely struggled on, was in a few strides
further passed in succession by Starke, Royallieu, and
Wizard ; Optimist, with Thormanby and Doefoot, following
in close order. At the distance Royallieu was beaten, Thor-
mark, following suit in a few strides after, and their places
were taken by Optimist, who, in company with Wizard,
waited upon the leader to the entrance to the rails, when
the favourite ran by his horses, and came on with a clear
lead, Starke lying second, and Optimist third, on the Stand
side of the course, the three running extremely wide to the
Stand, when Fordham called upon his horse, who answered
in the most gallant manner, and after a protracted finish
landed the American colours first by a head only, Wizard
defeating Optimist by three lengths for the second money ;
Thormanby finished a bad fourth ; Mon Etoile, who ran
through as the others were pulling up, was fifth, Wallace,
sixth, Doefoot next, and Royallieu and Lady Clifden the
two last. Run in 4 minutes 50 seconds.

Master Fenton cut out the work, followed by the Adine
filly and Ace of Clubs to the distance, where he dropped
back, and the running was taken up by Villette, who car-
ried it on to the stand, where the Ace of Clubs got to her
head, and wen cleverly by a neck, Villette beating Master
Fenton by half a length for second ; Costa was a bad
fourth.

Betting-4 to 1 each agst Gibraltar and Asteroid, sto 1
each agst Lupellus and Buccaneer, 7 to 1 each agst Spice-
box, Rufus, and Ripon.
Some delay was caused by Rufus refusing to face the
flag. When the flag was lowered Buccaneer jumped away
with the running, which he carried on for the first two
hundred yards, when he was passed by Ripon, who, in
cempany with Spicebox on the rails and Gibraltar in the
centre, came on in front to the distance, where Spicebox
took a commanding lead, followed by Asteroid, Gibraltar,
Lupellus, and Buccaneer, to which lot the race was con-
fined. At the stand the three placed closed and ran
altogether to the chair—Spicebox winning cleverly by a
neck, two lengths between the second and third, Lupellus
was fourth, and Buccaneer fifth ; the others were scattered
over the course.
