We pubIish to-day, the proceedings OF a
meeting of the Board Of Directors OF the
above Society, held in this city on the tn
inst, by which it will be seen that the time
for holding the first Annual Fair, has been
CHANGED from the l4th and 18th, to the 18th
and l4th of October. We also republlsh the
list Of premiums to be awarded at the COM
ing Fair. 1t will be seen also that the
grounds have been selected and committee
Amounted to arrange and prepare them, and
make NIL other necessary preparations Tor
the Exhibition. We hope. and have reason
70 believe that the people of old Pottawat'
tomie will turn out in their strength on this
occasion, and let our sister counties know
that some things can be done as we'll as 9th.
crs. 1t is generally conceded that in calcu-
la,ng the degree of success attending such
exhibitions it is matter Of but little impor.

The great point is, how do the farmers at
tend? With a few good specimens of farm
products as basis Of conversation. the
ideas of each are easily understood; and
thus, where there is desire for mutual In
crease of knowledge, much that is OF real
value is acquired by nearly all present. Tho
success, therefore, Of such exhibitions is to
be estimated from the number Of those for
whose advantage they are held, who are in
attendance, rather than from the number of
each product exhibited. Let the approach
ins Exhibition be n complete success in this
re,pcct-lct ali our farmers be in attendance,
with their best specimens of farm produce
bes. horscs-their best cattle-their best
hogs-their best sheep and their best chick
ems. Let our mechanics be on hand with
their best articles of manufacture-our ar
fists with their best productions-our wives
and daughters with their best bread, cakes,
preserves, pickles, embroidery, etc.-our
horticultursts, with their best and rarest
flowers and shrubs-and, though, we may
not sucrecd in having as great variety of ar
tirlcs or animals. as ether and older counties,
still let our Fair be a success in all that cnn
DC accomplished by free and .tuH inter-
change of thought, and IL thorough compari-
son Of our best products. We hope our
farmers will not let this opportunity for
improvement pass by uuhecdcd, but will
Of mankind" know what can be accomplish

shpr, space of time.
