t;on we hare been able to gather. we infer that
tbe next exhibition of tho Lynchburg Agricultural
and Mechanical Society. will be grand Affair."
and will probably excel any similar exhibition in
the State In fine stock extent and quality we
hove no doubt that 1t will far surpass either Of the
exhibitions that will be held elsewhere this sea-
sop. To accommodate the great variety OF stock
anticipated the Executive Committee have added
largely TO the number Of stalls which, we under
stand. are being engaged very brskly-up to this
,ime moro than eighty have been taken. Wenre
cratiied also to be able to say, that arrangements
for full supply of waite, have beon perfected, 80
that there will be no lack in this particular. The
ram. which proved n failure last year, has been
substituted by another, which now throws up n
constant unf,liling stream OF water An addition
al we'll has been dug to supply drinking water
and no visitor will suffer the want Of the lifegving
We trust that our citizens will subscribe liber
olly to the enterprise that the Executive Com
mittee may be able to meet fully the just expecta'
tons thas have been raised We shall rccur to
