the construction 81 by the British Government to
the Clayton and Bulwer Treaty, said

ion, Esquires Absent, R. H. Smith and Paul G.
Cameron, Esquires-the latter of whom, we learn,
is on visit to the South. Mr.. Smith would no
doubt have been in attendance, but from causes over
which he had control. The attendance of so
many of the Committee, including the venerable and
distinguished President Of the State Society," at in
clement season, furnishes strong evidence Of their
zeal in the confded to their hands, and of their
disposition to do all in their power to forward the in
terest ofsthe Society.
We learn that the principal business of the Com
miuee was to prepare list of premiums and that
this duty has been performed, and the list will be
published at early day The list, we are inform
ed, has been considerably increased, ard larger
than heretofore have been offered in some cases to
competitors for premiums.
1t was resolved we learn, to tender invitations to
the Editorial fraterity 10 be present. A stand will
be erected on the ground for their accommodation
and every facility will be afforded them in their Ia
bors in preparing notices of the articles and proceed
in rs at the Fair.
1t is expected, also, that the tastes and views OF
the young gentlemen and ladies, who may attend
will be consulted and met by C0tHl0n parties every
evening during the Fair, to be given at the hotels in
the city; these parties TO be, of course under the
perintendenCe and management of the Marshals of
the State Society. The utmost decorum will be main
tanned and it is expected that this feature will add
TO the number present, and to the general good feel
ing and enjoyment. An excellent band of music will
be provided for the occasion.
We anticipate a larger, more useful, and more i'm,
posing Fair next October than has ever been held in
this State Let all the friends of agricultural hort
cultural, genealogical, and mechanical mprO cement
and all who desire advancement and perfection among
people in varied handiwoTk and the fine arts, be
