1t is no new notion that we

it, especially in our larger citios. We have
surely enough to startle us into revivng the Gus

will slip from under our feet unless we emanci-

from the degrading despotism of 'mass meet

The Baltimore american says :-"Gen. VIM.
Walker has again evaded the efforts Of the gen
eral government to break up his 6lHbustering
schemes, and is on his way to Nicaragua with
a small force. It is to be hoped that the Ma
val force on the coast of Central America will
be watchful and prompt in arresting and send
ing back the marauder and his crew, or failing
that he may fall into the hands of the Costa Ri
cans who will hardly be persuaded to let him
escape second time" We hope Walker may
be persuaded to come back and be quiet.

TOBACCO MONOPOLY IN FRANcE.-The re-
venue derived from the tobacco monopoly in
France during the first nine months of 1857.
reaches the enormous sum Of 127, 223, 900 francs.
OF about 1925, 444 ,6OO-showing an increase over
the revenue derived from the same source the
corresponding period of1s5e of T. 4s9, 900 francs.
or ST, 497 600. The increase is owing to the
larger consumption of tobacco in France, and
would seem to indicate steady market for the
article in the leading countries of Europe.
The tobacco monopoly, under the reqie sys
TEN, commenced in France in the year 1811.-
The following statement will show the amount
OF revenue derived from this article in quinquen-
NAL periods from that date

THE EXHIBITION.

The tenth Exhibition of the Charles County
Agricultural Society, which took place last
week was attended by very large number of
citizens and strangers The exhibitions of stock,
machinery and implements, and vegetables, were
not so extensive as heretofore; but in the ladies
RIGS Of domestic manufacture, plain and fancy
needle-work, bread, butter, fruit preserves, &C.,
the Exhibition was well sustained As usual,
the first day was occupied in the examination
of the articles on exhibition; the second day in
receiving reports made by the several awarding
committees, hearing the annual address, and the
distribution Of premiums. The third day ap
pointed was intended to afford our farmers and
others an opportunity to sell stock or whatever
articles they might have to offer. There were
but few persons present on this day, and onlya
few horses and mules sold.
The annual Address, which was delivered by
Gen. GEORGE W. HUGHES, of Anne Arundel
county, was truly an eloquent and able effort
in behalf of Agriculture. We are happy to
state that copy of the Address, in compliance
with a resolution offered by Samuel Cox, Esq,
has been placed in our hands for publication,
and we shall lay it before our readers as soon
as it is possible for us to do SO.
It is proper to state that, before introducing
the Speaker, the President of the Society, RICH
ARD BARNES, Esq, made some very appropriate
remarks He spoke in feeling terms Of the de-
cease of the late President of the Society, Gen.
JOHN G.. CHAPMAN, and of the more recent de-
mise of GEORGE w. P. CUsTIs, who SO eloquent
ly addressed the Society at its annual meeting
last year.
On our first page to-day will be found the
Reports of the Committees appointed to award
Premiums. 1t will be seen by these that our
Exhibition was no mean affair. Subjoined will
be found List Of the Premiums, giving at a
glance the names of the successful competitors :
