allow the opportunity to pass unimproved and he rose
not to make speech but to offer q sentiment How

not true, our Declaration of Independence was mag

reuroach and calumny, and detrscron, but he would
ask every true American II this reproach was not re-
proach upon the cause OF liberty, and consequently
reproach TO himself. Cheers. He was ready to de-
clare and to have the authorities of the country declare
the principle of noninterventon, at whatever risk de
wanted the gentlemen present TO pledge themselves In
favor of the doctrine Of nonintervenon be proposed

upon Congress modification of the laws relat-

The government now pays $500 per mile for
carrying the mail on first class Railroads. This
is 6 per cent. on $4,000. The undersigned would
urge that instead of paying $500 annie, per an
mum, the Department should deliver, on acontract
perpetuity five 81 900 bonds, bearing an inte
rest OF five per centum. At this rate the charge
upon the Department would be reduced from $500

saved would create sinking fund which will, in II

hold it's 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 gardensH
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
as as good if not better than that Of others, and
hat it behooves you to gallantly enter the list Of
ompetition: IL defeated honorably, and the high
haracter Of the judges is guarantee that you
IAN be defeated III no other way, you will enjoy
he luxury Of knowing that others were more en-
lied 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
,oipcs and daughters 20 bring whatever appertains
to their peculiar departments as embroidery, notse-
hold manufactures, The pr0alefs Of The dairy and Of
the poultry yard, preserves. domestic toi'es, co'Vec-
tions and, above all things, to come themselves,
plihout ,conlan, and the beautiful eIaboraons of her
asfe and genius, no display can be perfect.
To the Manufacturers qf agricultural Implements
and 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
chnery 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
lplsn.e makers and Mechanics orthe United States,
make il a matter of pride to display your machi-
merry at our exhibition, and vie with each other in
ha wing the best and largest assortment on the
Ground. Such ambition is laudable--is worthy Of
American genius, and should be cherished by the
American heart.
