MEMORIAL.

To The Senate and House Of Representatives. qfthe
United States in Congress assembled The memo.
rial of the undersigned, respectfully represents that
they are entitled to Bounty Land, under the act
of 18th Of September 1850, that they are informed
and believe that the INDICATED warrants worth
more to them than the patented lands would be,
land thus granted, that If patented to them. the
expense Of agencies and taxes will be an ANNUAL
charge, reducing the value Of the grant, which
they could avoid if permitted to. sell the warrant
Your memorialists further represent that the law,
by preventing the sale of the warrants, assune
that the officers and volunteers entitled to bounty
lands, are not competent to act for themselves,
whereas many of them are among the most intel
igent and respectable citizens of the States They
therefore respectfully ask that the act aforesaid
may be SO modified as to make the warrants for
bounty lands assignable, and they will ever
pray, &c.

bring for exhibition therea portions OF your stock
the products Of your orchards, and Of your gardens
Don't presume that any animal, or Proauct' you
may own is inferior to others that will be here,
and be thus deferred from bringing them, as 1t is
only by comparison that the relative merits OF any
thing can be determined. The safer presumption
for you to arrive at, will be that what you nave
is as good, If not better than that OF others, ana
that it behooves you to CALAMITY enter the hsi OF
competition if defeated honorably, and the high
character of the Judges is guarantee that you
can be defeated in no other way, you VIII ENJOY
the luxury Of knowing that others were more en-
tiled to success than yourself.

as are properly in your department, we crave per-
mission to solicit your interest, to induce your
,cipes and daughters to bring whatever aPpertains
to their peculiar departments, as emtrotdsy mousse

tions and, above all things, to come themselves, as

To the Manufacturers Of agricultural implements
and Tools, we would say, that interest ana patrl-
otism both combine to enjoin upon you the pro
priety OF making grand exhibition of your ma
chinery of all kinds, from our present adyices,
we are led to believe that the assemblage of farm
ers and planters, and of distinguished strangers
from most OF the States of the Union, will be
greater than upon any former occasion here or
elsewhere We therefore say to the agricultural
Implement makers aud Mechanics of the United States
make it matter of pride to display your machl-
merry at our exhibition, and vie with each other IN
having the best and largest assortment on the

American genius, and should be cherished by the
American heart.
