President oI tbe Slate Agricultural Society, arriv ed in tbe city yesterday morning and rnadaan address at tbe Citp Hall in tbe afternoon, leaving immediately for borne on tbe four o'clock train. H:s audience was composed of ui .b- Spalding Agricultur Society and rominent citizens of count? &i. 1 town, with several la acu • as repteaentAtive in cuar «t« .llbotgb not p«Uool«lT teg. number. ..

Moit. > er, he has been im ‘ pressed by tbe great dispropor- tion of acres to tbe Dumber of those cultivating them With these two central thoughts he bas .visited the chief officers of tbe Georgia j Railroad, tbe Western and Atlantic RR„ and tbe Central RR. and asked , them to give free rates on passengers and products to the next State fair from all parts of Georgia, and rates of one cent a mile to all peeple who mav come from abroad not only to tbe State Fair but to different parts of Georgia, in order that they may see the people and the State both collectively and individually. To this, after ranch urging aDd many promises, the Central, tbe one great railway system of the State, consent ed and created a bureau of immigrs tion. President Nortben’s present tour through tbe State i/ to induce the farmers and the people to live up to the promises and representations that be made to the Central railroad in their name: that they will form active and efficient clubs and endeav or to improve their own condition, and send good exhibits of their best products to tbe State Fair, making it something to interest vistors and help immigration instead of wtat it has undoubtedly hitherto been, an ob ject in the main of derision and less fail in its agricultural display than tbe poorest county fair in the North and West, whence immigrants are expected to come. Mr. Northen \ explained wav immigration is de | sired: because there are thousands j upon thousands of acres more than t present occupants of the land can r develop, r ^nd because Ncrlh j I * anl - l esterrt larmer*, wr,, are rn *' i not afraid to work, can best show I both owners and bands j mft bods and bow to make farming j profitable. What _ he maui.v desired to impress upon the people was that the Centra! railrood was actively doing its part and he was now trying to induce the people to do theirs, The State can and will du nothing j. project, as ;t did nothirg for ; the Piedmont Exposition, aua no raiirotd will offer another eppor 1 tunity if this is neglected.
