The framers of the act establishing State Ag-
rioutural Bureau, evidently intended and expected
that its provisions would apply equally to the sg
rioutursl and mechanical in eresis of the State and
il has been the earnest desire of the Bureau so TO
execute their duties as to secure such q result In
1866 an act was passed providing for apprO-
priaiion Of 5000 each TO East, Middle, and West
Tennessee TO purchase and fit up Fair grounds in
the event that The delegates 70 the Division Fairs
Of those divisions should think il expedient TO To-
cate the Division Fairs Under this act the divis-
Ion Fair for East Tennessee was located at Knox
vile, and that for West Tennessee st Jackson, and
the appropriation Of $4,000 for each Fair was
drawn from the Treasury The Middle Division
Fair was not located the delegates deciding that
they preferred the plan Of holding the Fair Cor that
division. as originally provided alternately in the
different counties Application was therefore made
by the Mechanical Association at Nashville, for
transfer to their Association of the ten thousand
dollars which had been thus cantingently appropri
ated and not used, TO aid them in building a hail
for their purposes in Nashville The Legislature,
ct its last session, passed act conserving to the
transfer, provided the consent Of the delegate mem
bers to the Bureau from Middle Tennessee should
first be obtained The members in question hav-
log taken no final action in the matter, refr the
subject 10 you for further action if you deem such
action necessary and proper, adopting for myself
the language Of my immediate predecessor. speak
ing of the subject in his last message to the Le
gitlsture-
The Mechanics Institute Of Tennessee, said Gov.
JOHNSON, has done much, it is believed by its an
nual fairs, to stimulate the mechanical and manu-
featuring interests of the State, and to develop
much talent peculiar to the successful prosecution
OF these branches Of industry. The leading priu-
cipe upon which this institution is established il
paramount, in directing the mechsRical genius of
the young men Of the country, in that branch
Of mechanism 70 which 1t is best adapted. In
l9 datiy cd n stimulate
the latent mechanical talent and excite a lauda-
Die ambition among mechanics, manufacturers,
srlaans, and inventors, 10 excel, to foster sDd
10 encourage the arts in every way, and ulii-
mately to establish school Of design for the benefit
Of the youth Of the State, whose opportunities are
limited ior want OF pecuuisry means, or otherwise.
The institution is not established upon such basis

lieved they viii ultimately succeed ia its perma-
