STATE AGRICULTURAL SoCIETY.---The
State Society closed its annual Convention
In the city Of Columbus, on Wednesday eve-
ming last. Five new members Of the Board
were elected, namely, Messrs. ]. G. Gcst,
b. w. Steele and w. II. Ladd, for FIVE
years, and David McIntosh and J. L. Wor-
Ellington, Tor two years each. The State
journal says the new members ofthe Board,
are men Of energy, experience and charac-
ter, and entertains the utmost confidence
that the affairs Of the association will be
managed with skill and discretion. The
Journal says:--
"The past year has been one Of great pros
perity to the Society. The Cleveland Fair
was eminently successful in every depart
ment, and especially so in a financial view.
We learn that from eight to ten thousand
dollars are in the Treasury, besides certain
assets Of some value. This is very encour-
aging, and will stimulate TO increased efforts
to promote the great cause Of Agriculture in
Ohio.
The citizens of Dayton are moving to Sc
cure the next State Fair at that place. The
delegate from Montgomery county pledged
the 90 1000 on the part Of the people, and,
from the spirit and liberality that character.
ize them in all their enterprises, we have no
doubt the pledge will DO promptly redeemed,
md that the next annual State Fair will be
held in that Aourishing city.
The deliberations Ofthe Convention were
harmonious and in the right spirit. Some
important resolutions were proposed, which
we shall take occasion to refer to hereafter.
Altogether, this Annual Session was a very
propitious one, and demonstrates that the
great interests Of Agriculture have an abid-
ing place in the thoughts and regards of the
people of this first agricultural State of the
uninn.N

AND THE WAY SHE FELL ASLEEP.
Just before the lamp was lighted
Just before the children came
While the o was very quiet,
heard some one call my name.
All at once a window opened,
In u field were lambs and sheep:
Some from out a brook were drinking,
Some were lying fast asleep.
But | could o see the SAVIOR,
Though | strained my eyes to see,
And l wondered, If he saw me,
II he'd speak TO such as me.
In a moment | was looking
On a world so bright and fair,
Which was full of little children,
And they seemed SO happy there.
They were singing-oh, how sweetly,
Sweter songs | never heard,
They were 81 ging sweeter, mother,
Than can sing our yellow bird:
And while my breath was holding,
ONE SO bright upon me smiled,
And ! knew it must be JESUS,
When he said, "Come here, my child
Hug me closer, closer, mother,
Put your arms around me tight,
| am cold and tired, mother,
And feel so strange tonight.
Something hurts me here, dear mother,
Like a stone upon my breast
Oh, ] wonder, wonder, mother,
Why it is | annot rest.
All the day while you were working,
AS | lay upon my bed,
was trying to be patient,
And to think Of what you said; =
How the kind and blessed Jesus,
Loves his lambs to watch and keep,
And l wish'd he'd come and take me
In his arms that might sleep.
Come up here, my little Bessie,
Come up here, and live with me,
Where the children never suffer,
But are happier than you see.'
Then thought Of all you told me
Ofthat bright and happy land,
was going when you call'd me,
When you came and kiss'd my hand.
And, at first, I felt so sorry
You had cnll'd mel would 90
Oh, to sleep and never suffer
Mother don't be crying SO!
Hug me closer, closer, mother,
Put your arms around me tight
Oh, how much | love you, MOTHER
But feel SO strange tonight.
And her mother pressed her closer
To her over-burden'd breast;
On the heart 30 near to breaking,
Lay the heart so near its rest.
In the solemn hour of midnight,
In the darkness calm and deep,
Lying on her mothers bosom,
Little Bessie fell asleep.

from Honduras, which was finally accorded TO
them. The Government buildings in Ruatan
have been publicly sold at very great sacri-

Advices have been received from the Balize
