We invite attention to the letter of JOHN
MERRYMAN, Esq, of Hayfelds-the very intelli-
gent and energetic President of the Maryland
Agricultural Society-which we publish to-day.
We hope that such an appeal may not be made
in vain, because it is capable of demonstra-
ton, we think, that such an investment as
the one proposed TO our citizens would be
of the most remunerative character to say
nothing of other and higher considerations
1t nevertheless often happens, that those who
are called upon to cast their bread upon such
waters as these, lack faith in its speedy return,
or apprehend that a portion may reach their
neighbors' shores. In other words, although the
expenditure is certain to pay the whole commun-
ity, it requires good deal of liberality and pub
lie spirit in individuals TO contribute, and it is,
therefore, that such enterprises are too often al
lowed to perish for want of timely aid. In a case
like this, where the benefits spread themselves
throughout the whole city, we see no good reason
why the corporation itself should not render some
direct assistance. At all events, we trust that
means may be found to prevent our being second
time deprived of our annual Agricultural festival,
which, for so many years in the past, has been
one of the most agreeable features of the autumn
season

In the Senate yesterday Mr.. Wilson introduced
a joint resolution authorizing the collection and
publication of the records and public documents
relating to the "History of the Colonization of
America by Commercial Companies in England,
incorporated in 1906" Mr.. Kennedy gave notice
of bill for the transportation of the mails by rail-
road to California. The resolution of Mr.. Hale
proposing a of both Houses of Congress-
from to-day till the 22nd of May was taken up.
After some discussion, the resolution was rejected
by vote of yeas 20, nays 81. Mr. johnson, from
the Committee on Public Lands, reported Home
stead bill, substitute for both the
Senate and House bills.-In the House.
Mr. Schwartz offered resolution instructing the
Committee of Public Expenditures to report bill
reducing the compensation of the members of Con-
gress to eight dollars per diem for each day of ac
tual service, and providing also that when both
Houses, by joint resolution adjourn to attend po-
litical convention, the members voting therefor
shall not receive pay during the recess. The reso-
luton was objected to. The House went into Com
mittee the Deficiency Appropriation bill. On
motion of Mr.. Kunkel, an amendment was agreed
to appropriating $4,000 to repair the Custom
House in this city. When the Committee rose, the
consideration of Mr.. Bonhams resolution to adj
journ over from Friday next to the first of May
was resumed, and, after some debate, was rejected

lives to enjoy the triumph that is claimed for him,
the whole North isinvied to share in that triumph
as the whole South is made to partake in the sup
posed humiliation of Mr.. Pryor To demonstrate
or argue against the folly and wickedness of such
reasoning as this, would be more idle than blow
ing against the wind; and we have no idea of
wasting our breath to so little purpose We can
only point to the consequences to which such
madness must lead if allowed to run its career
unchecked, and to the necessity of union of all
conservative men throughout the country for the
purpose of arresting its further progress. There
must be no division of counsels or of strength in
the face of an enemy so persistent and unscrupu-
lous-so reckless alike of means and of conse-
quences. AS there is but one issue to be decided
and one battle to be fought in the coming Elec-
ton, so there can be but two sides to the contest
but two Parties in the field.

The NArAD QUEEN.-Manager Ford is at last pre-
pared to present this charming scenic spectacle to
a Baltimore audience in manner never before
equaed in this city. For the past month he has
had the best artists of our city engaged in the
preparation of the scenery and other appointments
of the piece. Charles S. Getz has exhibited his
skill in the production of the scenery with bis
usual fine taste. The Bath of Beauty and the Hall
of the Naiads from his pencil are said to be scenes
the most surprising and beautiful. The Grand
March of the Amazons, and their combat with tho
Knights will be rendered with the full STRENGTH Of
the company.

MARYLAND AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY,"
HAYFIELDs, near Cockeysville,
April 10th, 1860.
To the Editors of the Daily Exchange:
GENTLEMEN A liberal offer of the use, for five
years, of twenty-five of land, at Canton, has
been made to the Maryland State Agricultural
Society, for the purposes of their exhibitions and
the Society would accept the proposal had they the
means of fitting up the grounds. In New York
there is always competition for the location of the
State Fair, and wherever it is fixed the citizens
provide the grounds and necessary fixtures free of
all expense to the Society. This also the custom
in Ohio, Illinois and other States, and for the oca-
ton of the United States Societys fairs, in addi-
ton, there given at Philadelphia, Louisville,
Richmond and Chicago, guarantee that the re-
ceipts should cover the expenses. The Maryland
State Society believe it is to their interest to have
the grounds at Canton fitted up, and hold their
exhibitions there. Cannot your business men see
that their interests would be materially benefited
by expanding six thousand dollars in providing the
accommodation needed by the Society?
Very respectfully,
JOHN MERRYMAN.
President MARYLAND State Agricull Soct'v

Increasing his total to 254, or 50 more than two
thirds required to nominate. We have reason to
believe that Judge Douglas friends expect the vote
OF South Carolina also on the decisive ballot; but
we do not know on what data this expectation is
based; and, in the absence of any, the expectation
would seem quite illusory. But, unless there is
scandalous cheating around the board, Douglas is
bound to be nominated.
