bring for exhibition thereat portions of your stock
the products Of your orchards, aud 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 fany
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 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.

as are properly in your department, we crave per-
mission to solicit your interest, to induce your
uiues and daughters to bring whatever appertans
to their peculiar departments as embroidery, nose-
hold nltacttrcs, the proG1cts Of the dairy and Of

otism both combine to enjoin upon you the pro
prety Of making grand exhibition of your ma
chinery 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

greater than upon any former occasion here or
elsewhere. We therefore say to the agricultural
Inplesen makers and Mechanics the United States
make it a 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 laudabe-ls worthy OF

American heart.
