bring for exhibition thereat portions Of your stock
the products Of your orchards, and Of your gardenl
Don I presume that any animal, or product, you
may own Ia inferior To others that will be here,
and be thus deferred from bringing them, as il is
only by comparison that the relative merits any
thing can he determined. The safer presumption
for you to arrive at, will he that what you have
as as good, II not better than that or others, and
hat II behooyes you TO calamity enter the list or
ompetition: " defeated honOrably, and the high
haracter Of the judges is a guarantee that you
an be defeated in no other way, you will enjoy
he luxury of knowing that others were more en-
lied to success than yourself.

as are properly in your department, we crave per-
mission TO solicit your lntereSt, to induce your
,oipes and Daughters TO brig Vbatever appertains
TO their peculiar departments, as embroidery, mousse
hold manufactures, the proaGets Of the dairy and Of

O,thou voma,,, and the beautiful Celebrations Of her
asts and genius, no display can be perfect.
To the Manufacturers Of agricultural Implements
aud Tools, we would say, that interest and patri-
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 and Mechanics ofhs United States
make il a 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 laudable-s worthy of
American genius, and should be cherished by the
American heart.

MEMORIAL.

To the Senate and House Of Representatives. ofths
United States in Congress assembled The memo
rial Of the undersgned respectfully represents that
they are entitled TO Bounty Land, under the act
Of 18th Of September, 1850, that they informed
and believe that the INDICATED warrants are worth
more to them than the patented lands would be,
that they do not expect or desire TO reside on the
land thus granted that II patented to them, the
expense Of agencies and taxes will be an aIinua
charge, reducing the value Of the grant, which
they could avoid il permitted TO sell the warrant
Your memorialists further represent that the law
by preventing the sale Of the warrants, assuu e.
that the officers and volunteers entitled TO bount,
lands, are not competent 10 act for themselves,
whereas many Of them are among the most intel
ligent 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.
