MEMORIAL.

To The Senate aud House Of Representatives If the
United States IN Congress assembled: The memorial
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 are worth
more to them than the patented lands would be,
land thus graned 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 mcmoralisis further represent tina, the law,
by preventing the sale Of the warrants, assumes
that tho officers and volunteers entitled to bounty
lands, are not competent to act for themselves,
whereas many of them among the most intel
gent and respectable citizens of the States. They
therefore respectfully ask that the act aforesaid
may he so modified as TO make the warrants for
bounty lands assignabe, and they VIII ever
pray, &c.

hold its annual Exhibition and Fair at the city Of
Baltimore and we appeal TO you, one ana all, 70
bring for exhibition thereat portions OF your stock,
the products Of your orchards, and Of your gardens
Don't presume that any animal, or product you
NAV own is inferior to others that Will be mere,
and be thus deferred from bringing them, as 1t Is
only by comparison thai the relative merits OF any
thing can be determined. The safer presumption
for YOU to arrive at, will be that what you have
is as good If not better than that OF others, ana
that it behooves you to CALAMITY enter the list or
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-
tied to success than yourself.
And while we address you to bring such articles
as are properly in your department, we crave per-
mission to solicit your interest, to induce your
,cires and Daughters to bring whatever appertains
to their peculiar departments, embroidery, house
hold manufactures The products of the dairy and Of
the pouit,y yard preserves, domestic mines, co'vsc-
tions and above all things, to come themselves, as

taste and genius, display can be perfect
To the manufacturers Of Agricultural implements
and Tools, we would say, that interest and Patrl-
otism both combine to enjoln upon you the pro-
priety of making grand exhibition of your ma
chinery of all kinds, as from our present advices,
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 and Mechanics Of the United States,
make it matter of pride to display your machi-
merry at our exhibition, and vie with each other IN
having the best and largest assortment on the
Ground Such ambition is laudabe-s worthy Of
American genius, and should be cherished by the
American heart.
