II will be borne in mind that the Charles
County Agricultural Society will meet on
Thursday, the 18Th instant. We have grea,
faith in the utility Of this Society and would
endeavor to persuade our fellow-ciizens
generally to become members. /. was the
obiec, of those who formed the Society to
place the price Of subscription SO low as to
induce every man in the county to join
The price was fixed a, So; but we regre.
to say that the amount heretofore raised
has been quite too small, when compared
with the benefits that have been and are
likely to be derived by the county through
The influence of this Society. An increase
Of members will give increased means TO Of
fer larger and more numerous premiums and
render the Exhibitions vastly more interest
ing and useful and must, IN the very nature
of things, stimulate our farmers and planters
to more activity and diligence in their voca-
ton. Our advantages as county are such
as to render it a reproach to us that we are
not farther advanced in the scale Of agticul-
,ural improvement. 1t is needless for US to
speak of those advantages. They are too
apparent not 10 be Observed But this re-
proach need not exis, longer, if the work
Of renovaling end ncr easing the fertility Of
our soil shall be entered upon in the true
spirit, which this Society is endeavoring to
create. We are happy to learn from the Pre-
siden, Of the Society, that there has been an
accession of fifteen new members from Bal
timore city. These gentlemen have evinced
much libera|ily, for they can have but re-
mote or indirect interest in our agriculture.
and we trust the example will be followed
by our citizens generally. We like TO see
This kind Of public spirit,-a disposition to
do something for the general good,- a
people possessed Of it are sure to prosper,
not only in a collective sense but individu-
ally. We appeal to you, fellow citizens, for
means which will enable the Society to in
crease the amount Of premiums 10 double
what they have heretofore been. Knowing
your liberality, we feel confident you will
give.
