The Petersburg south Side Farmer takes libe-
ra, view of the establishment of Society and Ag
ricuturai Fair in this city position fhat every
Petersburg newspaper ought, it seems to u.s. to
occupy "a: for if there we're no better reason than
that Richmond in her action, is but following the
example of Petersburg, that should be sufficient
Petersburg has maintained her Society and annual
Fair ever since the organization OF the state So
ciety and to censure Richmond for doing the like,
now that the State Society is to hold its exhibl-
ton in Petersburg. is to pass censure upon that
enterprising city for what it has done. The South
Side Farmer says:
Our first impressions, however, were not by any
means partial to the movement referred to, tthe
Agricultural Society in Richmond j but We have
received letter from respected correspondent
which presents the subject in an aspect quite DIFF
fsrent from that In which it appears to be gene
rally viewed on this side of the Appomattox. AS
an act of Justice particularly one or two OF our
contemporaries of the daily press have commented
with some severity upon the spirit manifested by
the citizens of Richmond, we make some extracts
from the communication OF our friend:
"You will doubtless have heard of the move
nent on foot 10 build up new Agricultural So
ciety) understand there is universal feeling
in favor Of it, both in the city and county; that
more than sufficient funds have been pledged; and
that initatory steps have been taken for an enect
i've organization. That it is also declared (and
have no doubt is strictly true) that there is no
hostility in IL TO the State Society or to the city
of Petersburg; and that their arrangements Will
be 80 made that the approaching Fair OF the state
Society shall have all the benefit from the Fair
here that possibly be given. prominent
and influential citizen, one of the most prominent
in this enterprise, assured me that there was not
only no feeling OF hostility to Petersburg in this
matter, but so far he knew or believed, uni
versal desire and determination to act in spirit
of, and TO establish with it and its Society, the
most friendly and cordial relations. Ii might
then presume to offer advice to the citizens OF
Petersburg, it would be to resist any unkind feel
ings, to give way to no resentments, and TO meet
the Society here in the spirit which it processes,
and have no doubt sincerely entertains towards
them. 1t seems to me that if a series of fairs,
commencing here, is kept up for three successive
weeks, Norfolk following Petersburg, that much
benefit would result to ALL"
The resolutions adopted at the iuitiatory meet
ing of the citizens of Richmond last week accord
with the statement just quoted. 1t appears then
that the new Society-which we believe has not
yet been Damed-is designed to cooperate with
other Societies, and to promote the cause OF agri
culture in a catholic spirit; and as such, II has
our best wishes for its success.
