The Jury state in their Report :— " It is very satisfactory to b8 able to note in this connection that the»*e was a remarkable concensus of opinion as to the merits of the exhibits, often amounting to unanimity, and this even when the members were blinded, which was frequently clone. Many of the ales of all kind* were very fine, and those which were' off' were such as were very unlikely to have taken a place in any case ; in fact, the survival of the fittest has been effected by natural selection."
