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 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 it 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 properly in your department, we crave per-
mission TO solicit your interest, to induce your
,oipes and daughters to bring whatever appertains
to their peculiar departmental, as embroidery, nOSe-
hold ar,tact,cs, the prOa,cts Of the dairy and o.

otism Doth c0mDine 10 enJOin upon you the pro
priety of making grand exhibition Of your ma

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 Of the United States,
make it matter of pride to display your machi-
merry at exhibition, and vie with each other in
having the best and largest assortment on the
| ground. Such ambition is laudabe-s worthy OF
American genius, and should be cherished by the
| American heart.

fer favor by copying this notice.

thor of the "Book Of the Farm," &C., &c.; assisted

This highly valuable work will comprise two
large royal octave volumes, containing over 400
pages, with Is or 20 splendid steel engravngs,
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 it Of incaculabe value to the student
| Of agriculture.
The work is being published in semi-monthly
numbers Of 64 pages each, exclusive OF the Steel
engravings, and is sold at IS cents each, or IS for
| the entire work in numbers, (which there will be

AND

| Although these works distinguished by the
political shades above indicated, yet but a small
portion of their contents is devoted to political sub

them their chief value, and in that they stand con-
fessedy far above all other journals ofheir class.
