The condition and management of the Xorth Carolina Agricultural Societ:" is so little known and Ulldehltood, that it haa been deemed expedient by the Prcllidellt and Executive COIn. mittee to make 11 plain stahmleut of facts, and the undersigned to wbom has been af:l8igncd this duty. beg leave to lOublllit the following': WhelL it was decided 10 sell tho old Fair Grounds and purchase the pr.e:scllt site, it wall found that there WM a debt au the Society of about six thOlllli\nd doilarH. The pnrchll!5o of the now grounds and tho erection of thu vcry bamlROmo and complete buildingawhich we now have, increased the debt to about finy-fivo thoutmnd dollars. Thill. to ordillnry men wonld Fel.'m an insurmountable barrier, but the rre~ident, Col. '1'_ ),1. Holt. BCcondedJ by his able and liIJel-al E:'(ecutive Committeo put their shoulders to the wheel and tho dnbt has been reduced to about twouty-nine thollFl/lnd dollal't!_ Thu!:; you will see, that an immense work has been n('compliRhed by these !;c\f-s'\crificing men, for be it remombered that fhe President and E:,(pclltive Committee have given their IJames and are carrying the debt, and devc.te milch timo and energy to working up the I'IUCCC~S t)f the Fnir, and this too without 0110 cent of remunt:ratiOIl or profit of any 8ort, but lilly uftE-r cla:_, with their 1ll0lWY. brains, Ilnd caergy do the.«e g(,lltiE'lllcn laoor with ODC ol~tlut only in view, namE-ly : tho ad\-llllcl'UleJlt of th", Itgricuitllrail.llHl mechnhi('al interest of the State. :Mueh J!\ult is found, and llilfortllllatdy many stand rcady to coudomn, and critizise theil' acU~, whcn, if they would come forward and lend a. helping hand, all would be well. So lit11", diHpoa,lition to assiat the i-!ociety hUll been shown by our ('it izena, that it is with great diffictllty the Committee arc nl)\(> to procure the assistance of gentlemen as SlIperl'isol'P and Judges, " .KOTlel; TO TilE l'CUI.IC. and it frequently flO happens that thoy are compellt!d to 8~lect lilly body as JUdgCM without regard to their kno, ... ledgo of the article to oe pasfled Qll, hence the dissnti!lfnction and disappointment that so often takes plaef>, ami nil the blame is laid to the Committee. It h~ cbarged thnt the Executi\'e Committee are not filrmcri, 01' mecilaaic8, they aro not all farmera or medll~nictl. but there al'O 11 number of each on tho Committee, but there iA not a member of the Committee who will not cheerfully retire, if there are th096 who will como forward and tako the respollsi. bility they have 8i\!tHned. The ulldcr~iglled hope that tbo few filets hero stated, will illriuce the public to appreciate more fnlly the Jabor snd trouble of'lhe President :'Iod Executive Committee, and will induce 8. gC'llcrnl disposition to render all p01';f~iiJlo assistanCG to mnk. ollr Fair for 1875 a grand success. n.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.
Condition and Management of the North Carolina
Agricultural Society.
The condition and management of the Xorth Carolina Agricultural
Societ:" is so little known and Ulldehltood, that it haa
been deemed expedient by the Prcllidellt and Executive COIn.
mittee to make 11 plain stahmleut of facts, and the undersigned
to wbom has been af:l8igncd this duty. beg leave to lOublllit the
following':
WhelL it was decided 10 sell tho old Fair Grounds and purchase
the pr.e:scllt site, it wall found that there WM a debt au
the Society of about six thOlllli\nd doilarH. The pnrchll!5o of the
now grounds and tho erection of thu vcry bamlROmo and complete
buildingawhich we now have, increased the debt to about
finy-fivo thoutmnd dollars. Thill. to ordillnry men wonld Fel.'m
an insurmountable barrier, but the rre~ident, Col. '1'_ ),1. Holt.
BCcondedJ by his able and liIJel-al E:'(ecutive Committeo put
their shoulders to the wheel and tho dnbt has been reduced to
about twouty-nine thollFl/lnd dollal't!_ Thu!:; you will see, that
an immense work has been n('compliRhed by these !;c\f-s'\crificing
men, for be it remombered that fhe President and E:,(pclltive
Committee have given their IJames and are carrying the
debt, and devc.te milch timo and energy to working up the
I'IUCCC~S t)f the Fnir, and this too without 0110 cent of remunt:ratiOIl
or profit of any 8ort, but lilly uftE-r cla:_, with their 1ll0lWY.
brains, Ilnd caergy do the.«e g(,lltiE'lllcn laoor with ODC ol~tlut
only in view, namE-ly : tho ad\-llllcl'UleJlt of th", Itgricuitllrail.llHl
mechnhi('al interest of the State.
:Mueh J!\ult is found, and llilfortllllatdy many stand rcady to
coudomn, and critizise theil' acU~, whcn, if they would come
forward and lend a. helping hand, all would be well. So lit11",
diHpoa,lition to assiat the i-!ociety hUll been shown by our ('it izena,
that it is with great diffictllty the Committee arc nl)\(> to
procure the assistance of gentlemen as SlIperl'isol'P and Judges,
" .KOTlel; TO TilE l'CUI.IC.
and it frequently flO happens that thoy are compellt!d to 8~lect
lilly body as JUdgCM without regard to their kno, ... ledgo of the
article to oe pasfled Qll, hence the dissnti!lfnction and disappointment
that so often takes plaef>, ami nil the blame is laid to the
Committee.
It h~ cbarged thnt the Executi\'e Committee are not filrmcri,
01' mecilaaic8, they aro not all farmera or medll~nictl. but there
al'O 11 number of each on tho Committee, but there iA not a
member of the Committee who will not cheerfully retire, if
there are th096 who will como forward and tako the respollsi.
bility they have 8i\!tHned.
The ulldcr~iglled hope that tbo few filets hero stated, will
illriuce the public to appreciate more fnlly the Jabor snd trouble
of'lhe President :'Iod Executive Committee, and will induce 8.
gC'llcrnl disposition to render all p01';f~iiJlo assistanCG to mnk.
ollr Fair for 1875 a grand success.
