gennes awarded the Prizes as stated in
another place. Bnt we learn that on Sat- Z
urday, after the Committee had left, the
Managers awarded the prizes to others,on

Judged to be fourth or 9Th rate loaf.
The course pursued by the Managers
seems to have been eminenty fair and
honorable, and well calculated to encour-
