upon Congress a modification Of the laws relat-
ing TO contracts for carrying the mail, to au-
thorize the Post Office Department to contract fci

IL & per cent on 5000. The undersigned would
urge that, instead OF paying $500 a mile, per an
nun, the Department should deliver, on acontraci
n perpetuity, Eve 81 900 bonds, bearing an int
rest OF Eve per cenium. Al this rate the charge
upon the Department would be reduced from $500
70 $3.50 mile, per annUm, and the $50 per mile
saved would creae a sinking fund which will, IN a
fewyears pay oTthe Bonds and give the use ofsuch
roads forever thereafter, free Of all charge there
by effeciing a vast saving on The present annual
expenditures Of the Pc Office Department, and
consequent reduction Of the rates Of postage.
The effect will be no less advantageous to Rail
Road Companies than to the government For
instance, such contract would give TO the Botl-
more and Ohio RAILROAD Company more than
a.. 900 600, which would enable that complete its
road at an early day. and greatly increase It's bust
ness and profits.

A PPEAL TO THE MEMBERS OF THE MARYLAND
"A STATE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY We desire
that you should bear in mind, that ON the 23d,
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 hereat portions of your stock
the products of your orchards and Of your gardens
Don 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 1t 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 IL behooves you to calamity enter the list OF
competition if defeated honorably, and the high
haracter of the judges is 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.
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
,oiues and daughters brig whatever appertaIns
10 their peculiar departments, embroidery, mouse
hold manufactures, the proascis Of the dairy and Of
the poultry yard, preserves, domestic tctnes, eoIee-
lions and above all things, TO come themselves, as
WITHOUT ioonan and the beautiful Celebrations Of her
aste and genius, no display can be perfect
To the Manufacturers Of agricultural Implements
and Tools, we would saw, that interest and patri-
otism both combine to enioin upon you the pro
priety of making grand exhibition OF your ma
ehinery of all kinds, as from present advices,
we are led to believe that the assembage Of farm
srs 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 10 the agricultural
Implement makers and Mechanics Of the United States,
msse il a matter of pride TO display your maehi-
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
American genius, and should be cherished by the
American heart.

pages, with l8 or 90 splendid steel engravings,
and more than 600 engravings on wood, in the
highest style of the art, illustrating almost every
implement of husbandry now in use by the best
farmers, the best methods of ploughing, planting,
haying, harvesting, &C., &C., the various domes-
tic animals in their highest perfection; in short
the pictorial feature of the book is unique, and
will render il of incalculable value to the student
of agriculture.
The work is being published in semi-monthly
numbers of Ga pages each, exclusive of the Stee
engravings, and sold at 25 cents each, IS fol

Although these works are distinguished by the
political shades above indicated, yet but small
portion of their contents is devoted to political sub
iects. 1t is their literary character which gives
them their chief value, and IN that they stand con
fessedly far above all other journals ofthelr class
