THE NOTTINGHAMSHIRE AGRI-
CULTURAL ASSOCIATION.

This Association held their annual meeting at
Newark, on Tuesday, the 24th instant.. The show
vas held in the Cattle-market on the Castle-hill, and
the agricultural implements and vegetables were ex-
hibited in the Bowling-green adjoining the stock
market. The arrangements were very good. The
weather was by no means favourable, and the thing
altogether was a novelty here. The numbers and
quality of the stock taken as a whole far exceeded
our most sanguine expectation, and the company
was both numerous and respectable, among which
we observed Gaily Knight, Esq., M.P., Colonel
Rolleston, M.P. for the County, G. Fillingham,
T. B. Hihiyard, W. 11. Barrow, It. Bromley, B.
Martin, Esqrs., Revs. J. D. Becher, T. Cam, &c &c.
Sir Robert Howe Bromley presided. Upwards of
100 gentlemen sat down to a sumptuous dinner pro-
vided by Mr. Gilstrap, at the hotel. Sir R. 11. Brom-
ley gave the Queen, Royal.Farnily, Lord-Lieutenant
of the county, Duke of Newcastle, &c., &e. Tne com-
pany was addressed by Gaily Knight, Esq., M.P. and
Colonel Rolliston, M.P. P. Falkner, Esq., read the
awards, after which W. H. Barrow made some very
important remarks respecting the few labourers who
came forward to claim the premiums offered by the
Society, and strongly urged the necessity of the
farmers giving encouragement to the labourers
to raise themselves in society by virtuous in-
dustry. The judges were Mr. Wright, of' Rom-
nev, Mr. Bartholomew, of Goltho, and Mr. Smith,
of Burley Ralland. This being the day of our fat
stock market, there was a considerable quantity of
stock sold in the street. The show was not so large
as was expected, but was select. There were nearly
f)00 people admitted at Is. each. Our limits will not
allow us to particularise upon the stock. The show
of agricultural implements was very interesting, and
the largest ever remembered. Machines were exhibited
by Mr. Ed. Tonge, ironmonger, of Newark, among
hich was his improved iron horse power, adapted for
one or two horses, driving one, two, or three separate
machines at the same time, manufactured by A. Dean
of Birmingham, for whichl prizes have been awarded
repeatedly, and are again at this show. Its simplicity
and durability are allowed to surpass everything of
that description which has been presented to the pub-
lic. There .was also an oil-cake machine improved
and manufactured by Mr. Edward Tonge, adaped for
beasts or sheep, with screen. Its construction is dura-
bly simple. Mr. Tonge exhibited a very superior sub-
:mil plough, with the latest improved ploughs byßan-
som. Mr. Nicholson, of Newark, exhibited someport-
able iron sheep hurdles, and an improved oil-cake mill,
manufactured by himself. Ile exhibited Gardener's
patent chaff and turnip machines, Grant's patent rake,
Locock's patent plough, and Rodway's patent concave
horse-shoes. Various winnowing machines were ex-
hibited, made by Wheatley, of Holm-lane, near Not-
tingham ; Wade, of Syerston ; Atkins, Muskham,
Hornsby, Granthatn, and Revill; of Lincoln. Mr.
Croskili, of Beverley, had a great assortment of
agricultural implements. His clod crushing machine
and patent waggon, and Ducie's drag, were most
prominent. There was a very useful swing plough
shown by Bealby, of Collingham. The ploughing
match will take place at Howton, near Newark, on
the 10th of October.—Doncaster Gazette.
