JUDGE RUFFIN'S ADDRESS, The annual address by Judge Ruffl.n, deli~ered at the Fair Grounds on Thursday, was one oftile ablest, and in some respecti the best we have ever read or listened to. His subject was North·Carolin&, her agric~ltu ra.l sistory and condi tion, her resources, and her great advantages of climate, sta.boal'd and soil. He dwelt at some length on the character of slave labor, tracing in a masterlr manner the na.ture of the institution of slavery itself, and its benefits to both races . .

JUDGE RUFFIN'S ADDRESS, The annual address by Judge Ruffl.n, deli~ered at the Fair Grounds on Thursday, was one oftile ablest, and in some respecti the best we have ever read or listened to. His subject was North·Carolin&, her agric~ltu ra.l sistory and condi tion, her resources, and her great advantages of climate, sta.boal'd and soil. He dwelt at some length on the character of slave labor, tracing in a masterlr manner the na.ture of the institution of slavery itself, and its benefits to both races . . 'Ve shan have the pleasure of laying the add,ress before our reade.rs in our nex t. ,Its publiCAtion wHl be of much service to the cause of agriculture, and will be the means of magnifying North-CtlroliAa . ~herever it is read. .
