WORCESTER, Sept. II, 1854.
Messrs. Editors The painter who lettered
the new street signs car exonerate himself
from the impression conveyed in James, COM
munieation, in the Transcript of the 18th
inst, that he could not spell Ashland st. cor
rectly, by directing attention to the sign at
the other end of the same street, which is
spelled correctly. Any person, excepting
/" James" or some other boy with mind
barely equal to the task of discovering the
error, and not common sense enough to see
how it occurred, would have perceived that
it was a repetition, which indicated forgetful-
ness rather than bad spelling.
While on this small subject would inquire
whether {" James or the Editor of the Tran
script, assumed the awful responsibility of
indihng the piece in question If the lat
ter, l would call his attention to an error in
it. According to rule of punctuation there
should be all interrogation point after ques-
ton asked. 1t will be seen that James 5"
question is closed by full period. This is a
small error, but, appearing, as it does in sheet
SO celebrated for its scholarly photography
and beautifully constructed sentences, is fully
as worthy of public hotice, as the mistake al
luded to in 6 James's" very witty remarks

Fitchburg Cattle Show, and HOrticul-
tIirnI Exhibition,

The annual Exhibition of the Worcester
North Agricultural Society, came off at Fitch
burg, on Wednesday the 18th inst. The
weather was delightful, the attendance from
the neighboring towns was large, and the
show was excellent in all its departments.
First, in the order of exercises, was the
ploughing match, which was had upon the
farm of Moses Hall about one and
half miles from the post office. Thirteen
teams were entered for competition, and the
space allotted for each ploughman was an
eighth of an acre. All of the work was well
done, in the opinion of the best Judges, and
the docility of the teams and the skill and
attention OF the drivers were much commend
ed by the spectators. Soon after the plough
ing match was ended, the trial of working
oxen was had near the old Baptist meeting
house. The load agreed upon as test of the
capacity of the several teams, was 1000 lbs.
Fifteen teams were entered, and each per-
formed in turn, under the eye OF the judges
and the large crowd of spectators assembled.
At IL o'clock, a procession was formed near
the Cattle pens, upon the Common, under the
direction of Col. Ivers Phillips, headed by the
Fitchburg Band, and proceeded to the Unitar-
ian Church, where appropriate services were
performed, and an address was delivered by
Governor Washburn. AT the conclusion of
the address, the procession reformed and
marched to the Fltchburg House, where an
excellent dinner was in waiting, prepared
for the occasion by Mr.. w. F. Day, the pres
ent popular landlord of that hotel, in the ac-
customed good style of the place. Plates were
laid for 200 PERSONS, which were occupied
! for the most part, by the hardy and intelligent
Agriculturists of Wore, ster North, with their
wives aud daughters.
Hon. Moses Wood of Fitchburg, President
of the Society, preided at the tables, and C.
H. B. Snow, Esqr., of Fithburg, acted as
toast master The Dinner blessing having
been invoked by Rev. NJ. Stebbins. of Fitch
burg, the company fell to work upon the
good things provided and did yeoman's

orchards of the vicinity. Speeches were
afterwards made by the President of the So
ciety, Mr.. Chas. L. Flint. Secretary of the
Board of griculture, Gov, Washburn, Hon.
John Brooks, and Nathl Wood, Esq, and
letters were read from several distinguished
gentlemen, containing sentiments appropriate
to the occasion. This part of the services ap-
