Town Hall, 19th 1861. WIRRAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. THE annual exhibition of live stock, poultry, grain, seeds, roots, and implements, in connection with the Wirral Agricultural Society, took place on Wednesday, in a large field adjoining Clanghton-road, and opposite the upper part of Birkenhead Park. A site better adapted for the purpose could scarcely have been selected in the locality, and, the day being beautifully fine, the show was attended by a large number of farmers and others interested in the improvement of agriculture in the hundred. Considering the limited extent of the district, the exhibition on the whole was a decided success.
Although not large, the stock was excellent in quality, and showed a considerable improvement on the exhibitions of of previous Hooton years. An immense bull, exhibited by Mr. Naylor, Hall, attracted much attention from its gigantic proportions. There were also on the ground two pair of beautiful white heifers, calved after the 1st Jannary, 1859-one being exhibited by the Rev. R.
M. Feilden, rector of Bebing- pair ton, Prizes and the other awarded by Mr. R. Barton, president of the society. were to each pair.
The best part of the show was perhaps the sheep and pigs, some of the latter in lar being remarkably fine. A large tent was devoted to the particuexhibition of grain, seeds, and roots, and in each of these departments the various competitors had evidently taken great pains to produce the finest specimens. Some of the wheat of this year's growth was considered judges to be of excellent quality. Mr. W.
B. Burnham, of Spital Cottage Farm, obtained the first prize for samples of grain, pulse, roots, and seeds. Mr. Burnham also exhibited in the centre of the tent some beautiful specimens of grasses which he had collected on his farm between the 1st and 21st of July in this year, the whole of which were arranged with much taste. Mr.
T. Whalley exhibited a monster vegetable 2 lb. The show of poultry was limited, but some of the marrow, weighing cimens were well grown. Mr. Jones, the secretary of the spesociety, took the first prize for black Spanish.
At the entrance to the tent containing the grain, roots, there was one of Wheeler and Wilson's sewing machines, and the easy and and rapid manner in which the stitches" were made attracted much attention. An improved dog kennel was exhibited the Hon. Lady Cust, the object of the plan being to keep the by dog clean and healthy. The band of the 11th C.R.V. (Neston) was in attendance, and played a variety of popular airs in a very creditable manner.
The judges were For stock, Mr. Soughton, Rainhill, and Mr. Richmond, Thornton: Cattle, grain, and roots Mr. Rockliffe, Weston Hall, and Mr. Henderson, Orrell House.

Barton, who was Lieut. General the Hon. Sir Edward Cast, the Rev. Mark supported by Coxon, the Rev. R.
M. Fielden, Messrs. C. Bushell, H. K.
Aspinall, H. J. Irvin, See. The usual loyal toast having been duly honoured, The Chairman proposed The Bishop and Clergy of the diocese," which was responded to by the Rev. R.
M. Fielden. The Chairman next proposed The Army, Navy, and Volunteers," and in doing so complimented the volunteers of the hundred of Wirral on the efficiency they had displayed both at Chester and Wimbledon. Sir Edward Cast responded. He said he had from the first entertained the warmest and most sanguine expectatiors of the volunteer movement.
His own military experience had taught him that England was a country which could best be defended by his sharp-shooters, and many years ago he publicly expressed surprise that in a nation so fond of excelling in everything in which skill was required, and in which standing armies were so unpopular, the amusement of rifle shooting had not been established. When, therefore, rifle were corps established, he threw himself warmly into the movement, and he believed that, without any exception, it was one of the most valuable institutions which had been added to the country. H. K. (Applause.) Aspinall proposed the health of the Magistrates of the County of Chester," and the Rev.
Mr. Fielden responded. Mr. CHRISTOPHER BUSHELL, in proposing Success to the Wirral Farmers' Club and the Wirral Agricultural Improvement Society," said he thought "that those who had watched the progress of agriculture in the hundred of Wirral, as he had done for some few years, must be satisfied that already the societies he had named had achieved considerable success. (Applause.) He did not mean to say that much did not remain to be done, but looking back upon the last few years, he fact thought that they much might had fairly in take to themselves the gratifying very a short space of time been done; and he thought they might attribute that success in a great degree to the combined influence of the societies whose prosperity he had the honour to propose.
The success of agricultural societies was no longer a matter of mere local interest. The whole of this country- the whole intelligent worldwatched with the deepest interest the progress of agriculture in every district. (Hear, hear.) Those who supposed that the agriculturist alone was interested in the success of his great and glorious calling committed a great mistake. There was not an individual in this land, from the Queen upon her throne te the peasant in his cottage, who was not deeply interested in the agriculture of this country. (Applause.) Let them look back only to last year and remember that under the influence of ungenial skies there was something almost proaching to great difficulty in this country, and but for the apkindness and beneficence of Divine Providence, which gave supplies from distant lands, it would be difficult to conceive the evils which would have fallen upon the country in the last year.
(Hear, hear.) There was paid, not in the year itself, but consequent upon the short crops of the something like 37 or 38 millions sterling for foreign grain year, imif ported. there had been would have been the condition of this country What another bad harvest-if Providence had not blessed us with what he thought he might venture to say had been, if not one of the greatest harvests, at all events under all the circumstances a most bountiful harvest, and one for which it was their duty to offer to Divine Providence their most heartfelt thanks? The difficulties which surrounded this country at this moment seemed not to have been realised. We had looked with complacency at the disruption of the United States simply, as he believed, because we had secured to ourselves a good harvest. In the month of May our prospects were anything but cheering. At that time we had not realised in full the condition of things in America.
Now we were state beginning to realise the fall consequences, that of things to continue, of the disruption; and he supposing had no hesitation in expressing his opinion, which he thought many that our experienced men would endorse, that at this moment, but harvest had been good, this country would have been already upon the eve of something very like a panic. The success, then, of agriculrure was of the deepest importauce to this country, and to the farmers the country looked for the exercise of all the skill, industry, and intelligence of which they could possibly avail themselves. The societies he had named were some of the mears by which success could be achieved. He believed that there was a progression among the tenant farmers of this country. There had been, and there was at that moment, a progression beyond that which anybody could by any possibility have calculated some 20 years ago.
In that district especially they had, he upon believed, great prospects before them. They had a district largely increasing in population and wealth. The Mersey was increasing its commerce to an extent unparalleled in the history of any country. The population was increasing relatively with that commerce, and the farmers of that neighbourhood would have the advantage of supplying the population with that food which it must consume. (Applause.) Facilities would be given, he believed, on every hand, for the carrying of that produce to market.
He trusted the day would come when they would almost forget the name of Birkenhead, and that that populous shore of the Mersey would rather be called West Liverpool, for it was and must be a component part of the great population of Liverpool. He had great pleasure in proposing Success to the Club and to the Wirral Agricultural Improvement Society," coupling with the toast the name of Mr. Russell. Mr. Russell responded.
He said the show had not been such as they would have liked it to be, but it had been one which they need not be ashamed of. Amongst the other toasts on the list were "The Landlords," The Judges," The Officers of the Society," EFFECTS OF THE LATE GALE AT On Sunday last, the 15th about noon, a portion of a cottage at Netherton, Frodsbam, was blown down. It had been in a precarious state for a long time, but the tenant could get nothing done by the landlord to make it comfortable and prevent accidents. Although a small miserable dwelling, it was occupied by two families-in the cellar lived a poor bedridden old creature, upwards of eighty years of age, named Sarah Farrall, was providentially escaped unhurt, as indeed did all the others, but she had to be removed at once to a neighbour's house, sick as she was, through the inclement weather. It is wonderful that no one was killed, as the beams, bricks, fell amougst the people occupying the upper part of the tenement just as they were about to get their dinner.
The house is now a heap of ruins. -On COOKE'S VENTILATORS. -A HIST FOR MANAGERS' ROOMS. the general subject of ventilation we need say nothing in a mere notice like the present. Its importance is admitted on every hand, and the want of it is continually causing discomfort and disease.
What people want to know is how to get a mode of ventilation which shall be at once inexpensive and effectual. It was left to Mr. Cooke to supply a want so widely felt. We have been frequently taken in and disappointed by professional ventilators. We have witnessed a series of most expensive experiments in the House of which cost thousands of pounds to out, and then some Commons, carry thousands more to put a stop to and remove the machinery, when the ventilation doctors at last resorted to the sensible and practical (though not very novel) expedient of opening the window.
We have, in a word, found most people so deplorably ignorant of the first principles of natural science bearing on the subject, and so stolidly indifferent to points of vital moment, schemers, that and we have alwars looked with doubt on ventilating ranked them with the large class of charlatans to be carefully avoided. But Mr. Cooke came forth not under advertising but scientific auspices. Professor Pepper, whose eminent abilities all must acknowledge and admire, and whose return to the Polytechnic will be hailed with joy by gave Mr. Cooke's ventilators the high sanction of his scientific thousands, name, and we therefore felt inclined to give them a fair trial, knowing well enough that, if we really found them to be effective, we could in no way so easily earn the gratitude of our readers as by letting them know that a plan had at last been devised for securing cheaply, an abundant supply what WITHOUT Mr.
DRAUGHT. That is just what is wanted, and just: of fresh air, Cooke gives. We have tried two of his ventilators most severely, for a whole month; one in a small study and the other in a bedroom. No test could be severer, no resalt more satisfactory. Two very trifling improvements, which can easily be effected, would make these ventilators to our minds perfect, and they are the adoption of a strip of leather or vulcanised indiarnbber, to exclude the dust and rising between the sashes when the top sash is put down draught to let the ventilator act; and the fastenings of the ventilator to the top of the sash should be inside instead of trouble when the windows are cleaned.
These outside, little to changes save can easily be made, and then we shall have the most effective -in the only really effective and at the same time fact economical scheme of ventilation ever piaced before These ventilators the public. are so immensely superior to any others of the existence of which we are aware, that we to see them gradually introduced not merely into all public expect confidently offices, but into most private houses. Many would like, in weather such as we are now enjoying, to sleep with their chamber windows open, though they dare not do so for fear of taking cold by reason of the draught. With Cooke's ventilator they furbids safely indulge in this great luxury. But space may further enlargement.
Reiterating our hearty, and, with the two trifling improvements aforesaid, our unqualified approbation of Mr. Cooke's patent ventilator, after having given it a fair trial, we bring this perfectly spontaneous notice to a The ventilators can be seen at work in the show-room of Mr. S.

The starter had some difficulty in getting them off on good terms, and this delay increased the impatience of the spectators. Camerino, Conqueror, Kettledrum, The Roe were the most prominent of those who broke away each time.
When the flag fell Kettledrum was first seen in advance, but the horses had scarcely got into their stride before Camerino rushed to the front, Kettledrum going on second, followed in the order named by Lady Ripon, Dictator, and Imaus; Brown Stout, Janus, and Conqueror being the last three. No noteworthy change was made in their relative positions until rising the hill, when Brown Stout ran through his horses and took third place. On rounding the Fitzwilliam turn Lady Ripon and Brown Stout were beaten. At the Red House Kettledrum took a clear lead of a couple of lengths, his immediate pursuers being Dictator and Camerino: On rounding the last turn Caller Ou, who had been lying in the ruck, began to take a prominent part in the race, the colours of Kitdonan, Imaus, and Janus at the same time showing conspicuously in front. Just before reaching the half distance Caller Ou reached the favourite, and, amidst the most intense and loudly expressed excitement, a fine race in with the two ensued, Caller Ou winning by a bead; Kildonan was beaten by ten lengths, and Janus by a head from him.
Russley was fifth, Dictator sixth, Imaus seventh, Camerino eighth, and Aurelian next. The last lot consisted of Gardener, the Clarissa colt, and Billy Dwindles.
