The Committee would remark here, that they
never were placed in so unpleasant a position
bsfore. The Mares and Colts on exhibition,
were altogether OF a most superior quality hence
the Committee found it difficult in the extreme
to make the awards satisfactory to themselves
but IN doing SO, they were naturally governed
by two positions-ths mare first, then the colt

The great number Of Colts on the ground,
and more especially the very superior quality Of
these colts, made it extremely difficult fer the
| Judgos to make a decision satisfactory to them
selves, hence they take it to be highly improba-
| bic that they should give satisfaction to those
| directly interested, but in the great pains they
have taken to do right, they fatter themselves,
win be expire ssed their honest opinions.
| The Judges would here express their gratif-
cation at seeing such respectable show Of
Horses The show of two year old colts, ceud
vt we'll be surpassed.

The Judges in closing their report, cannot re-
frain from making few remarks on the lot OF
Colts exhibited by Mr.. Nicholas Ellie of Keno
| sha city, bat were entered toe late to compete
! for premiums. They were of the Black .N&wk
breed, and enforce on the mind the idea of SUI

| Ellie.
