THE CATTLE Snow. By the notice of the
Committee of Arrangements in this paper, it
will be seen that the number of entries for the
Ploughing Match is greater than on any former
| occasion, and about double what it was either
last year or the year before. We are glad to
find that the interest in this exhibition appears
| to be undiminished, believing that If properly
directed it may be made productive of the most
advantageous results. We learn, since our last,
that some uncommonly fine stock will be pres.
| ent, and we may be allowed to express the hope
| that every one who has the means of contrib.
uting to the objects Of the Society, by exhibit
ing specimens of valuable stock will do it, so
that there may be no deficiency in any depart
! ment of the Show.
To our friends the Manufacturers, of whose
! interests, in connection with those of the Agri-
culturists, we have been the uniform, and, ac-
cording TO our ability, the Jealous advocates
we would say, that we hope the appeal made to
| them by the Committee of ARRANGEMENTS may
I not be unavailing. Their prospects are now
Frightening, and for a continuance of prosperi-
| ty they must look to perseverance in that pol
! icy, so Justly denominated the AMERICAN SYs-
TEN, and to that alone, seconded by their own
well directed efforts. An opposition, more deep
! ~ planned, more thoroughly organized, and
more powerfully directed, than on any former
occasion, is now rising up against that system,
and 1T can be successfully opposed, only by the
greatest exertions on the part of its friends If
II Is oVerthrown, the future prospects of New
England must be gloomy in the extreme. At
such time it is of the utmost moment that the
most favorable impression should be made on
the community of the Importance of our manu-
iactures. An imposing display of the rdrietv
! and excellence of our fabrics would do much
! toward producing such an effect. Again, then,
we repeat that we hope the appeal will not be
unavailing.
During the last two years, many new branch.
/ es OF manufactures have been commenced
amongst US, particularly in the cutlery and
hardware line. OF all such, we hope there
may be specimens from every establishment in
the County, that the public may see the prog.
ress they are making; and we shall be happy
10 give notice in our columns of all such ar.
ticles as may be exhibited

SUDDEN DEATH. On Monday last. as DR.
Amasa Braman of Millbury was riding alone in
his chalse through this village, when nearly on.
posite Eaton tavern, he was observed first 10
sally forward and recover himself, and then inn

twice after his arrival Though the chaise
wheel passed over him, it is not supposed that
his death was caused either by that or the fall
but was probably the consequence Of fit.
