The Committee to whom was assigned the duty of examining and deciding upon the relative merits ot the several Horses entered for premium, having attended to that duty, respectfully report:

 That there were but two Stud Horses presented, of which, we have awarded to Nelson H. North the 1st premium of $4.O0.

 There were five Brood Mares entered, one of which was not presented. We award to Lorain Thrall tffe 1st premium, $500; to David Lucas, the 2d do. $2.OO.

 There were seven Gelding Horses entered, two of which were not brought upon the ground. We award 10 Stephen Atwood the 1st premium, %; {; to Dayton Mattoon, 2d do. $2.0O.

 There was but one 3 year old Colt entered, be- longing to Frederick Coleman. We award to him the 1st premium, $3 00.

 There were six year old Colts entered, five of which were presented us. We award to Allen Smith the lst premium, $500; to Edward Bee. man, the 2d do., $2OO.

 There were three yearling Colts entered. We award to John H. Nettleton the Ist premium, $2.0O; to Charles Wilson, the 2d do. 100.

 The Committee much regret that they had not more premiums at their command, believing that the number and excellence of the Horses, Mares, and Colts, have never been exceeded at any pre- vious exhibition, and were such as to demand at a future exhibition more liberal appropriation of premiums to be awarded

 The display of Stud Horses was not such as was expected by your Committee, although we consd- CT the horse presented by MT. North valuable &C., qu sition 10 the county

 The Committee cannot pass unnoticed a fine three year old Colt shown by Mir. Webster of Bur lngton (not in this county,) one which could not be surpassed if equalled by any in the county. We think the thanks of the Society are due to Mr. ] Webster.

 | Your Committee award to Abram Moss, for the best Boar over IS months old. (the only one enter ed,) the 1st premium of $500.

 To Marcus Leonard, for the best Breeding Sow and litter of pigs, we award the 1st premium, $4.OO; to H. M. Hart, 2d do., $3.O0 .'4 ".-
