Sooiety, delivered the following address before the society, on Tuesday evening' last: i^Wi^UJW 13 io '. QENTIiKlIBN OF. THE B?fJIETX: At tho convention of agriodlturahsts and me ohao??s, held in this city, is April, 1SS9, which resulted in the formation of this sooiety, it will be remembered there was ? lengthy discussion aa to fixing the per? manent plaae for holding onr annaal iiiirs.ii The claims of Oolmnbia and Oharleaton were warmly pressed by their respective advocates; abd othes leaned to the idea of making our fairs periputetio, holding them each year in different sec? tions of the State, and in that town which would offer to tho society the greatest inducement for ao doing. It was finally agreed that tbe first annnal fair should be held in the city of Colom? bia,'and after t|?*t; tho matter be left with the Executive Oommittoe. Upon the adjournment of that con? vention, the Oity Council of Columbia took the matter actively in hand; and first having submitted the question to the corporators, and meeting with their approval, proceeded to ?expend near 39,000 in erecting buildings for our uso. fheso buildings were erected upon a tract of land formerly purchased by tho City Couucil, aud improved for the use of the old State Agricultural Sooiety, whioh we have succeeded. The build? ings then ereoted had been destroyed by Sherman, during the late war. Upon the drat day of our first fair, the Mayor und Oounoilmen proceeded to these grounds and formally turned them ovei to the Executive Committee for the society, and afterwards delivered a deed to tho same effect, under the corporate seal, whioh wus accepted and recorded. Our sooiety being unincorporated, the deed of tho premises was ciado to thc three resident members of the Executive Committee, in trust for our use, so long us wo shall continue to hold thereon al least one anuual fair, und no longer; ant it WUB especially provided that the pre mises were not to bo liable for the debt: of the society, present or future; uni were also to revert to the city of Coln m bia, upon tho dissolution of the society At a subsequent meeting of thu Execu tivo Oom mittue, preparatory to ou a .-cond fair, they were warmly urged ti at least alternate between Charleston ant Columbia. As an original proposition tba soher?o onniroonded itself strongly but the liberal action of Columbia, am onr acceptance of their deed, had do oided the mutter. It was uot coutem plated to have more than one fair ii each year, and that must be in Cullimbin Accordingly, we have held upon thoa grounds two fairs, and are now holdiu the third-each of which, at a very mt derate estimate, bas caused to bo ei pended in the city of Columbia not les than $80,000. Further, upon the fait of thia deed, yonr Executive Committee lost year, laid out in completing th buildings between 32,000 and 33,000 c the society's funds, and thia year hav continued the improvement, with smaller expenditure. It seems that a new Council, with di: feront views, are now in oburge of Ci lumbiu, und recently proceedings at la have boen instituted to set aside th deed, and to restore the grounds uu buildings to the city. Your Executn Committee have employed oouusel, un the matter is before tbo courts. I hat thought it proper to bring it fully to tl uttention of the society, but caro not I surmise or comment upon thu tnotiv which have induced this actiou. Tl complaint alleges that tho deed "wna e ecuted in fraud of the public, politic and municipal rights nud duties of tl said oiry of Columbia, in bud faith t wards it as a public mnnicipul oorpor ' tioti, created by tho statutes of the Sta for political purposes, towards the Stu und corporators of the said city of C lumbiu, und founded in a fraudulent ut illegal assumption of power." The uro gt ave, though somewhat COD fa? charges. If it is meant that this sooie hus lu tho remotest degree boen pt verted to political purposes, or direct itself to other objects than those t pressed in its constitution, viz: 'Mo t velo po and promote thc eu t iru mater interest of the State," it is my duty, a us your presiding ufficur, I pronoun thu charge reckless and utterly uufoui. cd. It is undoubtedly true that a hit majority of the members of our socit uro not of thu puiitioal faith of tho t initiant party in this oity and State, a would prefer tin t other mun nud in sures should coutrol our destinies; I this ie necessarily the case whenever I tax-payers, the land-owners, or tho pitulists in South Carolina, are fully r. reseated. On oihor und proper uu sion?, they, us citizens, have aud doubt will again seek to enforce th viows of State policy. But this sooi as such has so far boen free from contamination of politics; and I I hoped, and still hope, uever to sot dragged in its mire. An adverso d* sion of tho courts will only cause meetings aud fairs to be ? bela else win and whether in Charleston or In st one of tho towns of the upper oonni is a question tho society eau decido w! it arises. There are questions of more immi ate and greater importance whioh maud consideration at this m ce ti Tb ay relate to our fundamental orgi zation; and in the opinion of your cautivo Committee, ?pon their favori solution at an early date depends only the continued usefulness of our ganization, bat, in all probability, continued existence, uy our consl tion, members are classed us honor lifo and annual. The first oontril nothing; tho serjond contribute $10 u admittance and nothing afterward; anuual members aro those who, utb mg our fairs, contribnte $2, uud for week are outitled to admittance to fair, nud for ono year tc all the o privileges of the society, without < 'g>itiou~tor'uoutlune*"tlnir'ooutribations ' ue^uutl-thet ptjEiuu. Tin? fund from life mefcfbers aM?c**onr ?wt Greeting han beer* insignificant, and bas been expend? ed in the initial expenses of the sooiety. ?nr resources are. (hereford, limited to the faud from annual members, who are in fact nothing more than purchasers of season tickets to our'fairs, and to the arl mission fees of casual daily visitors to the same. We have heretofore charged nothing fdr exhibition of articles, stalls for cattle, Seo., nor do I deem it advisa? ble that we Bhould; and we receive no aid'from the State, as former Booie ties have done. Thus practically onr re? sources are comprised in the single item o? gato money. This fund, ic a series of well managed fairs, will, I feel satis? fied, be sufficient for our expenses, espe? cially if it can be taken to combino suoh proper amusements with our agricul? tural and mechanical exhibition as will make the annually recurring fair an oc? casion for the social re-union of onr peo? ple, as well as ot technical instruction, lint for any single fair this resource is oertaiuly precarious. Bad weather, de? pressed markets, or any other occasional incident, may out short our receipts at the gate after the expenses of a fair have been incurred, and leave for the year a serious balanoe against ns. Our sooiety is also, as has been already men? tioned, unincorporated, and heretofore it has been thought undesirable to appbj for a charter. tinder this organization, your Execu? tive Coin mi tte o have, up to this time, in each year, incurred obligations upon , their pomonal oredit (the sooiety as such I has none) to au amouat equal to at least ; three-fourths of theoxponses of the fair; I say $3,000 to $4,000, beforo tho fair > gatea are opened. Their account of ex 1 penditures and receipts during the week j cannot be made np until the fair is ovet j and tho society has adjourned. If thc I balance is against UH, it has to be pro I vided for nt once; and this culls for uti advance of the amount by the com mittet from their private resources, looking tc the society lyr reimbursement at theil next meeting, twelve months off. At our first fair, in consequence of thi life member fund, our receipts exceeder ?mr expenses by between $2,000 uni $3,000. This amount, as stated, was ex pended in necessary additions to tin buildiugs upon the fair grounds. A our second fair, the balance was agains us by about $1,000, which amount tin Executive Committee raised upon thei personal credit in bank, and paid. I remains to be seen how tue account witl this fair will stand. The deficit of thi second fair is secured, iu addition to thi general obligation of the society, by thi individual guarantee of certain spiritei members given in advance; but the Ex ecutivo Committee hoped that it ooub be met without calling upon the gnar antee by the increased income from thi fair; aud to that ond, they have sough to swell the receipts at the gate, not oui, by offering to visitors tho interest of ai increased agricultural and meohunicr display, but also such amusements a are known to be popular; and, who guarded from abuse, are, byan enligbi ened public opinion, deemed unobjec tionablo. I have no hesitation in saying, that n association thus organized and thu working, must be short lived; and I ai confident that I express tho mature opinion of every frieud of tho society who baa given thought to thc subjec Your present Executive Co m ru i ULM which has been substantially uuchuiige from the beginning, are conviuced of i and if the effort is to be tmulu to coi tiune na we have boen doing, with um hated interest in the objects und wei fal of tho society, they are compelled lo at for relief by rotatiou in the respotisiuil ties of office. This condition of our affairs was lui before tho society ut its last meeting, 1 a report of tho Executive Committee, : which they proposed a remedy, whit they then thought, and still think, wi meet all difficulties, und placo our uss Otatios upon un assured financial bani besides enabling it to extend its Kph? of usefulness. I allude to the scheme an auxiliary joint stock association, wi a capital sufficiently large to enable ti society to extend its operations, as Wt ns to give it a reserved fund, from tl interest of which contingencies may Ul??t. This scheine of un auxiliary uss elation met with thc approval nf the i eiety, and was adopted by resoltitin Committees were appointed to soli, subscriptions; and it was further i solved, that thu Executive Committee authorized to call a meeting nf stet holders as soon us tho amount of stti taken will warraut their doing HO. Tl meeting was called in May last ut Coln hm, ami tho amount of stock anthon cally reported to be subscribed was lou to be about $7,000. Many of tho Coi ty committees failed to report, thong! was stated that some of them hud ht successfully at work. From the inf om tiou thus loosely furnished, thu wb subscription would not have exceed $16,000. $30,000 was deemed tho low amount at which an organization wot bo authorized, und tho stockholders jourued, having first directed tbo Bri tient of your sooiety to appoint, at discretion, a salaried agent to canv the State for subscriptions. This pointaient he has not made, thiaki upon further consideration aud ti| consultation with the Executive Ct mittee, that at that timo of the year, i with tbo scarcity of money among induced by tho low prices of the pr ons crop, the object of the stookhob would not have beeu advanced. T the matter now stunde; und I knov nothing which will be brought bel you at this meeting which, in my opim i tai ms at your bauds, more prompt d -oihive action. I respectfully ree mi. tn * that you give it priority in ortl >r of you* business. Si nco your lust nicotine;, certain v known gonth-mon of this Slate bavt Hociafed themselves in a Laud and migration Company, and liudinf necessary, in the furtherance of their pisas, - to safaba Jarge foj^?;^f* t?-ve undertaken to do it, by a series of draw inga and ^concerts at. the, Aoademy of Munio in Charleston. ? Their enterprise is noir ia this stage. IQ US inception, they applied to your Executive Commit tee to conduot their operations nnder the auspices of this Sooiety, stating that their purpose was to raise $100,000, and pledging themselves to devote the entire proceeds, less $10,000, to the immediate introduction of actual settlers into the State. The $10,000, they proposed, if successful, to devote to a subscription to yonr joint stock auxiliary association. Fhe committee assented to tue proposi? tion l and their notion in submitted tn the society. Upon this subject of im? migration, since the war, we bavo talked much and accomplished little. Tho State Bureau of Immigration, and the Immigration?Oonventionof May, '70, in Charleston, have not resulted, us far as known, in the introduction of a single immigrant. The .Newberry Immigrant Association, which was endorsed by onr sooiety, as the central organization of the State, and anxiliary to which we recommended the different counties to form other associations, after meeting with some success, has apparently ceased its operations. Private enterprise, with the 8timnloa8 of private gain, may, in this instance, effect something more to? wards increasing our white popolation by desirable accessions from abroad, and the high character of the gentlemen engaged in the enterprise is a sufficient guarantee of their good faith. Every one interested in tho subject must have notioed with pleasure, not on mingled with surprise, the remarkably accurate prognostications of the weaths! that daily emanate from the ohief signal office at Washington. These report, have boen heretoforo compiled and dis nominated chiefly in the iutereat of com merco. A communication hos been re ceived from Gen. Myra, chief signa officer of the army in charge, stating hil desire to extend the benefit of them U tho agricultural interests of the country and inviting the co-operation of tin: society. His invitation was cordial!; accepted, and at his request a committe has been nppointed to confer with bin when necessary, upon such plans au? improvements as may be deemed im por taut and necessary. The^propriety wa also suggested of establishing a subordi nate signal office at Columbia, as a rail road centre from which the daily paper would readily convey the weather tele grams to ?he uiusi isa portant agricn'tur:: scotions of tho State. In the rcceut death of the Hon. W. S Hennery, our society baa to lament th loss of an aotive and efficient mem bei and tho State a valued and devoted soi Mr. Hennery was a native of Beaafor S. C., and early in life removed with h family to Charleston, where he wan u| prenticed to tho machinist's trade, ii the steady application of those qualitii which win success in nil employ nitut ho became the muster of extensive wort H ho ps, and won tho regard and con I dance of tho comuiuuity ic which 1 lived. Before the war, he more tin once worthily represented Charleston the State Senate, aud be waa al wa, among the foremost in anything Icokii to her good or the welfare of the State large. He waa one of th'.; founders this society, and served upon its Exec tivo Committee from the beginning nu his untimely death. The quiet, una Huming deportment of the Christian ge tleman, the practical aud valued omni; of the man of business, was familiar you all. Cut off in the primo of mn hood, tho losa of such a tuan ia hurd be replaced. In conclnsiou, gentlemen, permit i to express thc heartfelt pleasure wi which I again greet yon.
