AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.

We rejoice 10 see the foundation laid for
an Agricultural Society in old Augusta.
We fondly hope it is destined to exert pow
erfui influence in promoting the great cause
OF agriculture in our county We need
something 10 rouse tho dropping spirits of
our Fsrmers--to check that restless, discon-
tented spirit which has for several years past
been so prevalent among us, and has deprived
our county Of some of its most enlernrising
and valuable citizens. Such a Society has
long been desideratum among US.
We understand The Society now numbers
about seventy, and comprises many OF our
most substantial, intelligent and practical
farmers. The selection OF officers made
on Monday last, sugurs we'll, we think, oil
its future success. We call upon The Farm
ers, one and all, TO step forward and unite
themselves 10 the Society: ii is an object
worthy OF their patronage and support.
The terms ofadmission are light; and thai
