The Approaching Agrioultura Fair in Colum bia-ircular from the Roxutive Committee The following highly 'important Cir cular will explain itsulf: COLtMJIA, S.. C., July 14th, 1800. Sita: The Executivo Ciomnittee of the S. C. Agricultural and Mechanical So cietv, having made the necessary or rangemnents for the animal fair to t lid in Colimbin, on the accond Wed nesday in November next, now appeal to their fellow-citizens to make the move. ment a success. Thit development of the material in turests or the State is conceded to be a matter of importance. It concerna the dignity as well as the general welfare of t:Q people whom we represent that nil that all their resources should be fully evoked. We have broken fortunes to etirieve, ruined industries to revive, and a just iilluence to regain. To aic comipisli this Cmi, the necessity is upon us, to move out upon the industrial arena and secure the reward of Energy, Skill and Activity. As a means to this end, citizens of the State representing that portion of its calital andi intelligence devoted to Pinl. dustrial pur1siits, feeling that these in teiests are iiiadequately represented in the present State government, (I en*e the greater necessity to co-operate amoig themnselves) have formed an Ag iicutural and Nleanicial Societ y and established annual fairs. Its Exceutive Committee, cntryinig out the orcr of the Society, lve arranged a preniuna list and provid.d for tle annni fir. itit one thiog retiins to I-e donc. Under the present regime, the S-cietv expects no aid from the State trea!tiry; hence the necessity devt'lves upon the Gon1nmittee to call upon tle fri id, anJ umemnhers of the Society to un,ke the ie quired contriiitions of ain cy, nid the coniuittee feel satiIed, that the phn propo,ed forti ra.ing tie necessary fotnis will meet the approval of those cn celrfled in this importmit ilovemient.
