as will interest tho public and illustrate th,
Improvements that are going on in tbes'
branches Of American industry. The prize

regulations of the Society. The design o
the Association is TO stimulate all those wit
are connected with il to the attainment o
the highest degree of excellence that can b,
reached. 1t is very desirable, therefore, ,tha
the production OF these two great classes o
society, should be brought together, 80 tha
by comparison, the relative merits Of th'
various improvements that have been mad
may be ascertained.
Under the arrangement Of the presen
year all articles placed within the inclosur,
for exhi ibition Except when they interfoTI
with the mechanical production OF Carbon
county, will be sold at public sale, withou
charge, II the owners desire it, thus relieving
Exhibitors from the labor Of removing thei
property, and enable others TO supply them
selves with the choicest specimens of agri
cultural and mechanical productions. Th'
we think a most important feature Of ou
Exhibition.
We invite, therefore, all, both at hom,
and abroad, to attend and participate eithe
as exhibitors or spectators, feeling that nom
will be disappointed. The officers anC
members Of the verious agricultural societie
in Pennsylvania and elsewhere are especial
ly aud cordially invited to attend.

able on Thursday, then the Fair. will b
