The country seems particularly adapted
. raising them.
The arrangements for the Exhibition
were very good, and every attention was
given TO them by the committee which su-
perintended them. The number OF per-
sons attending the Show was nothing like
So great as have seen at the Baltimore
and Philadelphia Shows, but il was be-
cause it was composed altogether of Agri-
cuItors, Ito use your new coinage) who
we're really interested in what they met
for. more respectable looking body OF
men, take them all together, | have sell
dom or never seen, their appearance indi-
eating fertile country and industrious
habits. Only one thing seems to me want
ing in the arrangement of these Shows
4 part of the objects of the Exhibition are
those which peculiarly belong to the la"
dies. The products Of their hands ought
TO be exhibited separately, so that they
should have an opportunity of comparing
notes and emulatng each others excel
lence. Perhaps, indeed, the judges OF
these articles ought TO be of the sex OF the
makers Of them that is point, however,
which will not take upon myself to de-
eide.
You may expect me to say something OF
the features of the country am in. IL is
a very level country, indented with bays
and intersected by rivers, which are salt
nearly TO their source. 1t abounds with
the most beautiful scenery, and is very
generally in good cultivation. speak,
of course, OF the country near and around
Eason, having not been farther from it
than the princely estate and hospitable
mansion of Mr. Lloyd, which lies about
twelve miles from this place, and which
is bevond comparison more beautiful than
any have ever seen. There are others
in the neighborhood, ! am told, Of less ex-
tent, bat in natural beauty and elegant
culture, nearly its equal. That | have
not seen them is not the fault oil their pos
SCISSORS, who deserve the gifts OF PROVE
dence for the hospitality and iiberality
with which they use them. The soil be-
ing level and light, is much easier of cul.
tivation than ours, and is, therefore, farm
ed in general with less labor. For the
same reason, the roads are, in general, ex-
cellent, and easy for carriages. One or
two facts will afford a better idea OF these
peculiarities than volume OF general re-
marks. The horses, even for the carria-
ges are meyer or rarely shod and in the
streets of EaSton, on the first day of the ex"
bibition, were counted 253 gigs from the
country. Having mentioned Easton, !
ought to add that it is more OF town, s.
better built town, than | expected to have
seen, and seems 10 be place OF good
deal of business.
conclude by strongly recommending
TO you, at some convenient season, to do
as have done. When you are weary OF
the routine of your business, and long for
few days charming recreation, take
trip across the Bay.

CORRESPONDENCE.

EAsToK, MD. NOV 9, l8s2.--The third
Exhibition of the Mary land Agricultural
Society, you know, was to be held on the
7th and 9th inst. at Easton. on the East
ern Shore of the Chesapeake. Accident
put il in my power to be present at 1t, at
the same tive that il gave me an oPportu-
nifty. which might otherwise never have
had of seeing this part of the country.
Of the Exhibition, do not know that
| can give you any instructive account
Cattle Shows are pretty much alike all the
world over; and, when you have seen
one. YOU cannot expect 10 see any thing
new at another, unless, indeed, you be
a connoisseur in stock, to which merit 1
have no pretensions. As to the stock,
however, heard it remarked that the
Horses, Mules, Sheep, and Hogs, were We
~ god, bu he Cattle not so good as
might be expected in country having
such capacity as this Tor grazing.
The greatest contest Tor premium, and
the one most difficult TO decide, was that
for the best Butter. The housewtery OF
the country had been put in reQulsltlon,
and twenty -eight samples were produced,
some OF them from the most distinguished
ladies of the land, the whole of it OF such
excellence, that the best judges found 1t
almost impossible TO make a selection.
Fortunately, the names of the tair compel"
itors were not revealed 10 the Judges pre-
yious to their decision, or The Butter might
have been preferred on other grounds Than
IFS own merits. The prize, to the gener~
al satisfaction, | believe, fell to an indus
trious woman, whose family owes Its sup
port mainly to her management.
There " as part of the Exhibition with
which was particularly pleased which
was the Domestic Manufactures, inclu-
ding carpeting, rugs, &c. which were OF
great beauty and durability. indeed, this
branch OF industry, really domestic, IS car
RED to greater extent on this shore than
| had supposed. was at the house OF
one gentleman, man of considerable, pro-
perry, and good liver, who informed me
that, for the thirty years he has been a
housekseper, be has never had blanket,
coverlet, sheet, towel, or table-cloth,
which was not of the manufacture OF his
own family; and this, understand, is by
10 means uncommon. The focks of sheep
are large and numerous, many gentlemen
possessing focks OF from an hundredup to
thousand, and even over that number.
