TEE RODNEY AGRICULTURAL SHOW.
[by TELEGRAPH.own correspondent.] Warkworth, Friday. The Rodney Agricultural Show was held, this day on the usual ground. The weather was most unfortunate, a steady and heavy rain pouring down until about three p.m., when it cleared up a little, but the show was an entire failure, only having about half the entries that were last year, and only those more immediately connected with tha business of the day were present. Ladies were conspicuous by their absence. The judgeu were : Mr. Harris and Mr. Udy (horses and cattle)and Mr. Mayo, Mr. Sharp, and Mr. Rao (fruit and produce). They gave unqualified satisfaction. The dinner (with the President,, Mr. Moat, M.H.R., in the chair) ; was a great success. A concert and dance are taking place in the Maaonio Ball.
