CATTLE SHOW

Inc armers oil Worcester County are not wont
to need any extra nducement to make their An
nual Show respectable, and creditable to them
selves and the County. Yet, any stimulus were
necessary, they will have sufficient one this year.
in the fact, that a large Convention of probably
from Jiue 10 sir hundred members, from every part
Of the State, will sit in this town on the day sue.
ceeding the Show, and so far as we have been able
to learn there is a very general intention, on the
part of the delegates, to be here in season to at
tend the Show. number Of them have already
engaged their lodgings for Tuesday night.
Under such circumstances we hope that our Far
mers, Manufacturers, and Mechanics. will not rest
satisfied with their ordinary exertions to make the
Exhibition respectable. They have already secur-
ed for it high reputation which has extended
throughout the Commonwealth, and now, when
our fellow citizens from other sections of the
Stale. allured by that reputation, come to see for
themselves, we should regret exceedingly to have
them go away disappointed. Rather should we
give them cause to say that the half had not been
told them
We make these remarks, not from any queru-
ousness of disposition but simply that our citizens
may be aware of the peculiar responsibility which
rests on them at the present time, believing, that
nothing more is needed, to insure all the exertion
when may be necessary to make the Show at least
equal to any former one; and that, with this know
ledge, they will prove themselves, as they always
have done, to be prepared for any emergency.
EXTRA TELEGRAPH. There are about so SUBJ
scribers for this paper in Worcester, and although
three numbers have been published the third num-
Der long enough since to have had it reach our Post
Office week ago, yet, only the first number has
come to hand. This has led to much inquiry as to
the cause of it. We have not doubted that it was
detained at some post Office on the road, and the
following extract from the New York Journal of
Commerce explains the matter
About two cart loads of bags stuffed with some
thing, have been lying for some time in the area
outside the Post Office, They appear as if the con.
tents might be Extra Telegraphs."
We may add, that the Extra Globe is received
with the moot punctiIous regularity, and that to
facilitate its circulation, and save trouble to the
publishers, large bundles of them are sent 10 Post
Offices, all over the county, without any direction,

OF all the high-handed and despotic measures of
the present administration this attempt to dictate
to the people what they may read, and what they
shall not is not the least important. A similar at

Since the above was written, few subscriber RS to
the Extra Telegraph whose names were forwarded
after the other subscribers had received their first
number, have received three numbers, each, while
the first subscribers have received but one So
