AGRICULTURAL CoNvENTIoN.-On our fIrst
page will be found an article, from the South
ern Agriculturist, in reply to tho question
"What ought the Agricultural. Convention to
dol" In addition to the objects there recon-
mended, we would take the liberty of sugges-
ting THAI measures ought to be adopted by
The Convention for establishing in Columbia
monthly periodical, on the plan of the Alba
ny Cutivator, Or the Monthly Gennesee Far
mer, the cost of which should not exceed one
dollar per annum. At this price it would OBJ
tam an extensive circulation, and speedily ex-
ert an incalculable influence for good upon The
prosperity Of the state. The income from the
subscription list of such periodical might not
for the first year or two, be sufficient to support
an editor, in addition to defrayng the expense
of publication. 1t might therefore be neces'
ssry at first to obtain funds from some other
source toi that purpose. And from what source
could they be drawn more appropriately than
from the state treasury! A proposition IN
either branch Of the legislature to make an
appropriation for such purpose would DOUBT
less, meet with strong opposition at frst' on
account merely OF it's novelty. But to what
object after meeting the expenses neces'
sary to keep the wheels ofgovernment in reg
ular motion, could the same amount OF the pup
lie money be so benefcially appropriated Ihe
benefit to the state would be ten fold greater
,I,an that derived from the free school system
