THIRD ANNUAL EXHIBITION
OF THE
Maryland state Agricultural Socie,

M8ryland State Agricultural society.
A PPEAL TO THE MEMBERS OF THE MARYLAND
N STATE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.-We desire
that you should bear in mind, that on the Odd,
oath. and 25th days of October, your Society will
hold its annual Exhibition and Fair at the city Of
Baltimore and we appeal to you, one and all, to
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, as it is
only by comparison that the relative merits any
thing can be determined. The safer presumption
for you to arrive at, will be that what you have
IS good, if not better than that of others, and
hat it behooves you to gallantly enter the list OF
ompetiton if defeated honorably, and the high
,harncter of the judges is a guarantee that you
IAN be defeated in no other way, you will enjoy
The luxury of knowing that others were more en-
lied to success than yourself.
And while we address you to bring such articles
as properly in your department, we crave per-
mission to solicit your interest, to induce your
,pires and daughters TO bring whatever appertans
to their peculiar departments, as embroidery, mousse
hold manufactures, the proalcts Of the dairy and o.
the poultry yard, preserpe,. domestic oi'tes, conec
tons, and, above all things, to come themselves, a,
,ohout oon,an, aud the beautiful celebrations Of her
aste and genius, no display can be perfect.
To the Manufacturers Of Agricultural Implement.
ant Tools, we would say, that interest and patrl-
otism both combine to enjoin upon you the pro
prety Of making grand exhibition Of your ma
chinery of all kinds, from our present adyices,
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 than upon any former occasion here OF
elsewhere. We therefore say to the agricultural
Implement makers and Mechanics ofthe 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 laudable-is worthy OF
AmericanUenius, and should be cherished by the
American heart.

rial of the undersigned, respectfully represents that
thew are entitled to Bounty Land, under the act
of 18th OF September, 1880 that they are informed

more to them than the patented lands would be,
that they do not expect or desire TO reside on inc
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
thew could avoid if permitted to sell the warrant
Your memoralists further represent that the law.
by preventing the sale Of the warrants assum e
that the officers and volunteers emitted to bounty
lands. are not competent to act for themselves,
v,bereas many Of them are among the most intel
l;gent and respectable citizens of the States They
,berefore respectfully ask that the act aforesaid
NAV be so modified as to make the warrants for
bounty lands assgnable, and they will ever
pray &c.
