Annual Convention Of Farmers.

The Knoxville Press and Herald, Feb.
| 10, says:
The Executive Committee of the Farm
ers' Convention of East Tennessee, met in
this city, yesterday. Present, o. P. Tenn
pie, President, Rev. G. B. Lord, s. D. VIII
liams, and David Lee; G. W. Charlton be-
ing absent. The 9th day of May, we are
informed, was fixed for the day of the next
annual convention. Inasmuch as a very
large attendance Of farmers Is expected,
probably as many as one thousand,
and as the convention will last three days,
and as many most intelligent farmers
can poorly sustain the ordinary
expense of our hotels for that length of
time, and as considerable sum of money
will be needed to defrsy the ordinary ex-
penses of the convention, and to pay for
printing the proceedings, it was determined
to suspend the definite selection Of the place
of meeting until it could be ascertained how
much money viii be raised BY the citizens
Of Knoxville, aud whether or not, and how
much, the hotels and boarding houses viii
reduce their rates of boarding during the
convention, and now many Of the citizens
are willing to Open their houses to delegates.
To ascertain these facts, so far as Knox
vile was concerned, Peter Staub, t. 81.
Head, j. B. Hoxsie, John Cruze and Am
brose Gaines were appointed committee
on expenses, hospitality and reception.
Said committee is requested TO report to the
President, at Knoxville, by the first day of
March. Itsiis isupposed that it will take
from three to five hundred dollars to pay all
expenses. rAU
There were several hundred delegates
present last year, and the result was q
splendid success. This year much larger
number will be present, it is believed, as all
who were here last year went away de-
lighted as well as instructed. What will
our citizens do? Can they not extend to
the Convention magnificent hospitality?
