He had postp« association until the present time. And her gentlemen, (addressing tho assembly,) I am gratified I am gratified to meet three other as sociations, evidently with the same object in view- the promotion of the agricultural and manufacturing interest of our State- J am glut ilied to know that there are so lhany mov of the kind. It is a clear manifestation of u liv ly interest ill tho minds of our people. I wai the good spirit to march oil. developing the re- I /1 '" Hources of our land from the seaboard to the j t» 1L ‘ J mountains. For the more successful accom plishing of these ends iu view, I advocate u un ion of these different organizations, and l an nounce for this association tlint it is ready to meet the others on a common platform, lor the purpose of effecting this union.
