A I IONs 1st The fair Grounds and iiuildirigs will he opened for visitors on Monday morning, and con timie open until Friday evening. It is therefore de sirahle that all persons having articles for exhibition, shall he on the ground as early as Friday or Saturday, the 9th and 10th August when a Committee wilt he there ready to rcceite thein :td. The Association has an ample fund, and will, i tn all cases, become responsible for the safe-keeping ol articles which may be placed in the hands of its officers and committees, (tfie owner taking a cheek for tlie same,) until the close of ilie 1? air, which will he announced heforohand, in ample time to give them opportunly to recover their goods, and to prevent thereby the leaving of any goods 01 articles unprotected after the adjournment ol the | Association. i 3d. Mutk A. Cooper, Jtichard Peters, David VV. | Lewis, VVm. Ezzard, and James IVL Calhoun, are appointed a committee w hoie duly it shall lie to sec that all articles entering the fair grounds for exhiition, sha'lhuve first been enleredin the Secretary s book or iegistry?tin n labelled will the owner'sname and residence?and price, if for sale?giving to tb? owner a corresponding card?and then clasn- j tied and arranged by departments, and in such order i as to facilitate the labors of the several committees on premiums; and also to employ such police and j doorkeepers and clerks, as shall he neeeasary for the protection of the, grounds and buildings, and | such clerks as they may need in the arrangement and labelling of articles. 4lh. There will positively he reipiired, in all cases, a minute and accurate written statement illustrating and explaining every article sent for exhibition?the statement to he delivered to the Secretary. For instance, if a Machine, a statement of is powers and uses, cost, lime of invention, and any other fact deemed valuable by the inventor or maker. If Horticultural or Agricultural Products, mode of preparation of land and soil, manure and time of planting, mode of cultivation. If an Animal, the pedigree or stock, age, mode of raising, flu1. If Needle-work or Painting, or any work of Art, the length of time bestowed on iL, or Lhc amount of labor; the age, if by children or very old persons the value, uses, &e. Since this is the most reliable , mode of collecting such informal ion as may he worth publishing in the transactions of the Society, visitors, patrons and members, all will take notice, that a premium will not be awarded to any article, whatever its merit, unless accompanied by illustrative and explanatory statements, made out in legible hand, and in a style lit at once for the press. r 5th. The delegations of tlic serveral county Socicties arc requested and enjoined to make out, upon consolation, u report of the present condition of Agriculture in their several counties, of the improvements in farming, tillage, draining and manuring, which have been or arc in progress of being adopted. Tlic leading products of their ciuinliecs the modes of preparation, lime of planting and modof cultivation. The means and measures of preserving and increasing the fertility of lands. Accurate Agricultural memoirs from the serveral county societies would make up an amount of valuable information to be. scut out in the published transactions of the Society. 6th. It is desirable to make the Fair a Central Southern Agricultural and Manufacturers Exchange We request individuals who have a surplus of choice articles, or who make them for sale?such as choice seeds, machines, stock, <&e?to carry them there for sale, and not alone for exhibition for a premium. 7th. Premiums.?It is impossible to name in a notice like this all, the various articles to which premiums will be granted. However comprehensive we might make any enumerated .list there would still be many articles of merit offered which would not be embraced in.it, and yet richly deserving | nreminms, lest ihci efore the announcement of premiums for particular articles might he construed by someinto an exclusion ot'all articles unannounced, the Committee requests the people generally to observe, that it is intended to give the action of the Association the very widest'seone, embracing ?very thing that is ingenious or useful in business or art. All then, with whatever they have for sale or exhibition, are invited to come. The onlyregulation further necessary on this point pernaps is, that, on :il! articles of the highest merit in In.' Apartment of Stock, Mechanics, Agricultural Implements, and valuable iuiprovementsor inventions in any of the departments, a premium ol a cup worth 110 will be given ; on the second best articles a cup worth $ 5 will be given, on the third best $ 2. 50 ; on the fourth an honor. And on all articles of the highest merit in the remaining deport meats a cup worth $5 will he given ; on the second best #2. 50 ; on the third an honor ; on the fourth, 2d honor. On miner and miscellaneous articles, premiums from one to three dollars?these, however,are general regulations, and in particular cose or cases of peculiar merit the committees will lie permitted, indeed are requested, to vary the rule. 8th. A hall will be prepared and assigned particularly to the Ladies for their garden products, fruits, (lowers paintings, needle-work, &c. They are cordially invited to attend.

CL A If TON. Kight Honorable Sir H. L. Rulwkr, fc*-c. Extract from the Circular nf the Royal Commit sioneri. "The Commissioners have felt that it would b? desirable, hh far an possible, to prevent any tiersons from sending hither articles which cannot in admitted, rather than to reject the articles attei their arrival in London. They feel alao that the delicate and responsible task of deciding on the admission or rejection of articles destined for ex tubman by foreigncontributors ought not to be imposed upon any Fngbsh tribunal, but snould bt relVrreil to one xvtng the confidence of ?tie exliibitois theirsi.ves, iiiict standing entirely free from pnssibl* .upuLtttions of national partiably. They ar.rnr i off I y propose to admit to exhibition such foreign articles only as iiiuy be forwarded to them by the Central Authority (whatever tuny be tU nature) in each country. They will coinmunieut' to such Central Authority the amount of spat? which can he allowed to the productions of the country for which it acts, and will also slate the conditions and limitations which may front time to time he derided on with respect to the udmtsaioi of articles. All articles forwarded by such Central A tit Ion it y will then he admitted, provided they do not reipnre a greater aggregate amount ol space than that assigned to the productions of tin country from which they come ; and, provided, also, that they do not violate the couditioim and limitations of which due notice shall have been given. Ii will rest with the Central Authority in each country to decide upon the merits of iht several articles presented for exhibition, and l< take cure that those which are sent are such to fairly represent the industry of their fellow country men.

This decision is (Vision. " Ni> articles of foreign manufacture, to whom soever they limy belong, or wheresoever illey may be, can be admitted for exhibition unless tliey come with the sanction of the Central Authority of the country of which they are the produce The Commissioners do not insist upon such urti cles being in all cases actually forwarded by tilt Central Authority, though they consider thai this would generally lie the most satisfactory arrangement ; but it is indispensable that the sanction ol such authority should in all cases he expressly given, and that it be held responsible for the illness of such articles for exhibitioi _ and for no' authorizing the exhibition of a greater quantity than can lie accommodated in the spt re assignee to the productions of the country in qn stion."
