The committee in their report say that they
experienced considerable difficulty in awarding
the list premium for u general display owing to
two Of these collections being so nearly equal in
amount and quality, and state that in view of the
general apathy the display made by the three to
whom were awarded the LIST, I'd and Sd premiums
was especially creditablc. They also particular
~ note contribution of bushel of Mercer po-
tatoes g of the very finest quality" made by MI.
John vandcycr, which came in too late for COM
petition, and two stalks of corn from one hill
containing II ears. The latter were from Mr..
Thos. B. Courscy, Of Frederick, Kent county.
