He -showed that the ; tl purpose of the College was to give a j t< pnu?tieal and cheap education and to demonstrate to the people of the State -that we cen raise our own supplies at notre es cheap as it can be done abroad. An objeet lesion is here to be given to the farmers of the State in diversified and. intensified farming. .

BALTIJIORE, July 28.-Samuel Sands died to-day in bis ninety-second year. For a long period he had probably been the oldest living pi-inter, being ?D uninterrupted service as printer, editor or publisher since his apprenticeship began in 1811. Nearly half a century ago he was publisher of the American Farmer, the first agricultural paper started in the country. For a number of years he published the Morning Chronicle, a daily issued here before the era of tejegraphs and steam ex? presses. In 1836, he published the Freeman's Banner, advocating the elec? tion of Gen. William Henry Harrison, and afterwards other politcal and lite? rary papers. He was a strenuous Whig and for many years Secretary of the Whig State Central Committee, but never held or ran for public of?ee. During the war he was an unconditional Union mao. and .has since been a Re? publican. While an apprentice boy he set in tyjj&a-frhe ?ifa?uscript of the t?Star^p?ngled Banner." mmJ ? ? * ?-mr\m Merit "Wins.
