Owing to the wetness of the morning, the visitors
were not so numeral!' as on the first d■y of the ex-
hibition. It was computed, however. that there
might be about 3,000 persons on the ground. At
one o'clock, the Address, by Dr. Mitcnill, was de-
livered in the large ball to a numerous and respect-
able audience. We hove been politely favoured
by the Vice-Preeilent with a copy, part of which
we subjoin. It is as follows

THE ADDRESS,
Delivered at the Exhibition held by the New York Coast,
Society far primate; Agriculture aad liaternal Improve-
meat. on the Rth of November. ISIS, at the request of
the Monsters, by Dr. Samuel 1.. Illitehlll, first Vire-Pre-
sident of the Society.
" Delightful is the task of addressing you. fellow-
citizen., on this occasion. Tne light. heat. and
rain, of the season, hare shed their benign Wino-
ence upon our laud, crowning it aith verdure. and
loading it with produce. The tomb has received
no more than its ordinary number of tenants, in
consequence of which health and vigour have held
a superiority. Upon these topics I offer you my
congratulations, with the refitment. of a mind sc.
cording with every person presern, in offering thanks
to God for having permitted us to act a part in this
excellent and admirable seise, anti Kasen as the
will to make known our sensibility and thankfulness
tor the blessing.
" This is no ordinary meeting. I wi.h, therefore,
it had been possible for the dietiseguistied awl gal-
lant Gentleman from whntn you expected this day's
discourse, to have been able to deliver it. His pa.
ramount duties, in conducting the business of his
profession, and adding thereby force and character
to the navy, mast plead his excus►. When the ill.
telligeoce was brought that the service bed devolved
upon the permit now before you, it was so mums
peewit, and the time for propitiation so short, that
he at first felt a motive for all apology ; for his
professional function. required that on this very
day he should deliver the public teeter. introduc-
tory to his coarse of Botany and Mewls Medics
in our great arid growing school of physic ; but to
decline an invitation to such a repast, such an ex-
hibition as this was repugnant to his feelings. He
could not reconcile it to himself, connected as he
is with this society, to be absent, nor called upon
as he is to speak, to remain silent. We have c4use
to rejoice that so goodly • portion of the habitable
globe has &Hen to ou► tot. To this nation belongs
the vast territory reaching from the Atlantic Ocean
to the Pacific ; from New Yo►k to Astoria, the
whole breadth of the Continent between the coun-
tries claimed by Spain on the one side, and by
Great Britain, and perhaps Russia. on the other.
Its position is on the oorthern or favoured titan-
sphere. Astronomy has shown that the sun ►n his
annual journey along the rued of the ecliptic,
dwells longer in the northern than the southern
signs of the Zodiac. His slay with us is greater by
almost seven days rad Is half thou with the people
beyond the Equator. This preponderance of *un-
shine in the course of many ages makes an impor-
tant diffe►ence in our favour.
" It is alto s part of our good fortune to be placed
in the middle latitudes, as they are termed, that is, be-
twixt the extre in esof temperature.. The space between
the parallels of 31 and 48 degrees, comprehends .he
best position that can be (narked out. There the soil
rears the vegetables most adapted to warm, to cover,
to nourish, to recreate, and to improve the human
race. There animal nature appears, with few ex-
ceptions, to the greatest advantage, and. above all,
Man. the lord and sovereign of this sublunary world,
in there tracts seemed to have :mauled the hiewill
elevation of mental and corporeal power.

" These are matters of leliOatioo, derived from
our georiptireal situation. There are others of v.
moral kind, quite a■ interesting ■nd as worthy of
_consideration.. The fire and happy constitutiou of
the United Stales contains clauses favourable to
agriculture. Congress is thereby authorised to
establish an uniform rule of naturalization. The
statutes slimmed upon that subject are remarkably
liberal. Au alien after a modern term of proba-
tion, passes immediately into full citizenship. 'rite
intermediate condition of den•zni Is unknown to
our law. The advantages resulting to errirrants
from such generous regulations, have brought hither
great numbers of men practically acnnsinted with
agricultural arts. Marry of these are distinguished
fur their learning. virtue. industry, rod talents.
They have assisted not only to people the country,
but to improve it. Fur they bring •ith them nor
merely their motley to purchase lauds, but their
libraries, scientific uppatretuo, frivoling stock, ma tu.
factoring utensils. and, inure than all, their Irving
skill and example, beyond tire reach of banks.
" The deterutiostiou to favour the interests of agrir-
culture, is strongly expressed in the strewn' which
prohibits the imposition' of tax or duty tin art;clei
reported rmat any State. I understand thereby a
strong regulation in favour of productive
at home. The Nrniosal Legis.mule is foibliktleti
