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
may own is inferior to others that will be here,
and be thus deferred from bringing them, it 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 have
as as good, if not better than that of others, and
that it behooves you to gallanly enter the hist OF
competition if defeated hOnorably, and the high
character of the Judges is guarantee that you
can be defeated in no other way, you will enjoy
the luxury Of knowing that others were more
tiled 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
pipes and daughters to bring whatever appertains
to their peculiar departments, as embroidery, nOuse
hold antacturcs, the proucts Of the dairy aud of
the poultry yard, preserves. domestic tct,les, conec
lions, and above all things, to come themselves, as
lolt.oui ,ooan, and the beautiful Celebrations of her
aste aud genius, no display ca" be perfect.
and Tools, we would say, that interest 7nents
| otism both combine TO enioin nnon you the pro
priety of making grand exhibition OF your ma
chnery of alI kinds, as from our present advices,
we are led to believe that the assembage of farm
ers and planters, and of distinguished strangers
from most OF the States Of the Union, will be
greater thnn upon any former occasion here or
elsewhere We therefore say to the agricultural
Implement makers and Mechanics orthe United States,
make il a matter of pride to display your machi-
merry ut our exhibition, and vie with each other in
having the best and largest assortment on the
ground. Such ambition is laudabe-is worthy Of
American genius, and should be cherished by the
American heart.
