Tue Acx1culruRAI STATE FAIR AT SARATOGA.
According to all accounts, the approaching ,ai.
q nd cattle show 1T Saratoga, VIII De the
affair Of the kind that ever took place In the
Hated S,.,ss Farmers and cattle-raisers from
III ra,ts of the State, and from the adjoining
| States and from Canada, are pouring In In such
s,resm a. threatens to fill every nook and crew
ice in the village Innumerable are the articles
which the hotel keepers resorting to for the
purpose of accommodating the great crowd, and
we should not be surprised If they were obliged
TO extend poles across their sleeping rooms as
roosts for all who will apply for beds. The rail-
road cars are full of stock-cows, bulls, calves,
horses and farming implements.
Among the distinguished persons who will be
present, We may mention .ex-Presidents Van
Buren, and Tyler, Gov. Hammond of South Ca
roina, Hon. Daniel Webster, Hon. John A. Dix,
Gen. Tom Thumb, Herr Alexander, Herr, Sivo-
ri, and many others, whose names we shall re-
port in due time.
The address on the occasion was written by
Hon. Silas Wright day or two previous to his
decease, and will be read by Hon. John A. Dix.
The preparations made by the executive COM
mittee of the society are on grand and CON-
prehensive scale. Nothing that would tend to
will be permitted, and everything needful will
be provided.
1t would be needless to speak at length on the
happy influences which this noble society exerts
in promoting the prosperity of the State. They
can be seen in every county and in every farm
and cattle yard. Where, few years since,
nothing but barren and waste land met the eye
of the traveller, there can now be seen fields IF
W eat, rye, oats, and other descriptions of ma
lures fruits. Where, few years since, we saw
no cows or oxen that were not feeble and d.
mlnutive in size, we now see the short-horned
Durham, and other varieties of the best foreign
stock. Instead of feeces weighing two pounds,
we see them weigh six and seven, and the same
through the whole field. The best animals for
breeding and for the table-the best horses-the
most improved pioughs, harrows, scythes, bee
hives, churns, SC. &c. , are seen on every mans
farm, instead Of the rickety, ungainly and un-
profitable things in few years ago. Who
ever heard of rod of land being sub-soiled,
ploughed, or barren land being,made productive,
until the energies of our farmers We're aroused,
and competition excited among the yeomanry Of
our State, by agricultural societies, and espe-
cially by theparent society, the same which will
this week hold their annual fair at Saratoga?
We shall send reporter from this office,
whose duty it will be to give an extended report
of this great farmers festival, and we hope to be
able to illustrate it with series of engravings
representing the fair ground and the different
buildings that may be erected on it, as well as
the finest specimens of sheep, cattle, &c., that
may be exhibited.
