Loughborough Cultural Fete: This interesting display, which is so well calculated to excite a spirit of emulation among all classes in Loughborough and the neighbourhood, and to develop the powers of the soil when under the influence of scientific treatment took place on Tuesday, in the Corn Exchange, Town Hall. Although the society, which emanated from a few garden allottees, may be said to have remained in embryo for two years, this is its first exhibition after its complete organization. It has, to use a cultivator’s phrase,” been transplanted,” and like many subjects under its care, it has become more vigorous and promising in consequence. The room, although well adapted for the purpose by its diffusion of a due of light upon all the articles exhibited, was very warm and to some oppressive. The arrangement of the subjects was good. … (continues) … Class B – Amateurs and Others: Flowers: Best six varieties of Roses Thos. Pinsent. – Pansies; Thos. Pinsent. – Sweet Williams; Thos.

Ashby De La Zouch Petty Sessions: August 26th (before C. R. Colville, Esq. and the Rev. J. M. Echalez): Ann and Charlotte Brookes, sisters, two decently dressed little girls, apparently 9 and 11 years old, were charged with stealing two pairs of boots at Ashby, on Saturday, the 12th August. Thomas Pincent, of Loughborough, stated that on the before-mentioned day he had a shoe-stall in Ashby market, the two girls were standing near it, looking at the goods; when they were gone, he was asked by another stall keeper if he had lost any boots, as he saw the prisoners take some away. Got a policeman and followed them towards Heather, where they reside. Overtook them three miles from Ashby and took the two pairs of boots produced from them; they are his property and worth 10s. The father of the prisoners was present and acknowledged the offence on their behalf. Mr Echalaz severely reprimanded him for his profligate neglect of his children and habits of drunkenness, by which the unfortunate prisoners had in all probability been driven to commit the offence with which they stood charged: Fined 5s each and £1 4s 6d expenses. A fortnight allowed for payment.

Loughborough: Sherwin v Pinsent: Claim £7 6s: Mr. Giles was for the plaintiff, and Mr. lnglesant for the defendant. On Dec. 10th last, plaintiff let a horse to the defendant to go to Ashby-de-la-Zouch market. When returning to Loughborough in the evening, the horse fell, but after having its foreleg dressed and bandaged, the defendant drove it home. On arriving at Loughborough, a deep wound was found in the inside of the fetlock, and a veterinary surgeon was sent for; but the animal continued getting worse up to December 22, when, by the surgeon’s advice, it was killed. Mr. E. Garton, veterinary surgeon, was of the opinion that the wound was not caused by a fall, and that it was highly improper to drive the animal home after it had received such an injury. His Honour, believing that the injury was caused by the fall and that there was nothing improper in driving it home after the wound was dressed and bandaged, gave judgment for the defendant.

Finney Hill Races: These races, which it appears are to be annual, came off on Monday week. The winning post was erected at the summit of the hill, and the course (the turnpike road) near it was thronged by a large concourse of spectators from Sheepshed, Loughborough, and other places. The horse, pony, and donkey races were heats, distance half a mile. The pony race for a new bridle came off first, the first heat being run about two o’clock. Four ponies were entered for the prize, viz.: Newham’s of Kegworth, Wilson’s of Sheepshed, and Clifford’s and Pinsent’s of Loughborough. The Kegworth pony won easily the first heat, the Sheepshed the second, and, in the third it and Pinsent’s were neck by neck until within a few yards of the winning post, when the Sheepshed got in advance and won by about half a length. This was the closest contested race of the day. The next was a horse race for a new saddle, between a horse of Mr. Newham’s of Kegworth, and one of Mr. Chester’s of Blackbrook. The Kegworth horse won both heats easily. The donkey race, for 7s 6d was won by a donkey belonging to Jack Onion, of Belton, who is well known by most gentlemen of the Leicestershire hunt. The donkey was jockeyed by Jack’s son Roger, who won both heats in gallant style, leaving his three competitors far behind in the vale below. … …
