The old fellow is very quiet and sedate,
and bears his honors in q soldierly man
ner. He Is much petted and admired.
There is a good display of home thresh-
ers and reapers. The:.foreigners seemed
to have been afraid to bring any
machines of that class with them. In
fact the foreign display OF machinery in
general is very limited. America un-
doubtedly bears
THE PALM FOR INGENUITY.
Spain makes, indeed, very credita6le
showing of agricultural products; she
has all of the grains, fruits and nuts
of q temperate, as we'll rs tropical CHI
mate. In extent of exhibits she sur
passes all other foreign competitors. She
has large collections in agricultural hall,
the main building and the art gallery,
and in addition, has erected filled with
interesting articles, quite large build
ing of her own. The Spsniards have a
splendid country and climate. With peace
and good government, they would soon
impress Europe as Of old with her i'm
portance.
The interesting topic at present at Ag-
ricultural Hall is the extensive prepara-
tions for
THE LIVESTOCK SHOW,
to begin on September lst, and continue
till the close Of the exhibition. The
show will consist of horses, mules, cattle,
dogs and poultry, at stated periods, an
average of two weeks being devoted to
each. Great Britain has already began
to ship here her renowned blooded
stock. A large and fine showing from
all parts of the world is promised.

is cool and pleasant, and the attendance
is gradually on the increase. The man

sembling a rush during the fall. 1t is to
be hoped for the peoples as well as for
the exhibitions sake, that they will not
be disappointed. Z. n. T.

Ohio Tobacco.
BALTIMORE, August l, 1876.
Editors of the Register:

Editors of the Register:
Our market for Ohio tobscco has dur
ing the past month again ruled very ac-
tive, and we have to report total trans
actions of about 5000 hhds. Messrs.
Bros. BoniHger purchased about 1900
hhds for their Duisburg factory. The
French agents, Messrs A. Schumacher &
Co, bought only one lot of 1877 hhds. for
the contract, this being old tobacco; they
only need a couple of hundred hogsheads
more TO finish their contract. About
l.5OO hhds have been sold for Bremen,
Australia, and all other foreign markets,
and for home consumption.
For spsngled and good red tobacco,
there is very good demand, and for all
such grades full prices are obtained.
Dark, heavy brown tobacco, suitable for
France, is rather neglected; but we hope
that Italy will soon give an order for
dark tobacco, which would enable agents
to dispose of these grades. For frosted
tobacco there is at present no demand,
but we think some of this tobacco will
be wanted soon for home consumption,
and perhaps Spain will give an order Tor
this description.
We would advise our friends to for.
ward the balance of their tobacco as fast
as it can possibly be done, as we think 1t
Is decidedly to their interest to have the
tobacco in market soon. At present there
is a good demand, and we can dispose OF
the bulk of the tobacco readily on arrival
at fair prices. AS the different markets
thus far have been pretty well supplied,
we fear that if the tobacco is shipped too
late in the season the demand may
slacken Off and then agents may be COM
PEELED to carry the tobacco over to next
year, which has generally proved to be
very improbable to owners, owingto the
heavy expenses for carrying, as storage,
insurance, interest, etc.
The western markets are very strong,
and all the better grades of Kentucky to-
bscco, owing to unfavorable crop reports,
show considerable advance. Some
heavy purchases of Kentucky have been
made by Reggie buyers, and the market in
New York is very active The crop here
in Maryland was suffering from too dry
weather, but of late we had fine rams,
which will improve the prospects of this
crop.
We anticipate brisk demand for Ohio
tobacco during this month, and hope to
succeed in getting higher prices.
The total inspections Of Ohio tobacco
up to date amount to II 1881 hhds., against
5, l64 hhds. at the same time last year.
Yours truly,
WILKENs Il BEALL.

In what striking contrast does the action
