AGRICUlTURAL SOCIETY.

We should like to see cur merchants
and business men coming up promptly
and subscribing to the capital stock Of
the Agricultural, Mechanical and Hor-
tieultural Sjciety, recently chartered by
the General Assembly of Tennessee. We
hope that none will bs so shoEt-sighted,
as we have heard q few have intimated,
as 10 insist that the farmers should take
all the stock Ia an association Of this
character. The merchant is as much in
terested as the farmer 10 having a four
ishing agriculture. He handles the pro-
ducts Of the farmers and gets bis COM
missions from them. 1.-THE farmer pros.
pers, he is sure to succeed. II the eoun-
try furnishes, the city must reay
the benefit. Ia everything that tends
to make the products Of the land
increase, the city man, whether
merchant or mechanic, is as directly in.
terested as the farmer himself. We car
but regard 8 man who will endesvor e
shirk his duties and throw the whols
burden OF such an enterprise upon the
farmer, rs being unworthy Of support
and We are sure there are few, il any, Of
our liberal minded basiness men who
will avail themselves Of such q subter-
fuge. II the present enterprise shall be
properly supported and sustained by ell
classes Of the community, we shall look
to see the very best results flow from It's
success. Let it be sustained in 3 proper
spirit. and the right kind of men selected
TO manage ii, snd We shall sooD become
the leading agricultural and commercial
community in the whole South.
