After a full hearing of the views of members of the Society, 

 from different sections of the State, it was determined, by a resolu- 

 tion of the Society, to hold the next annual fair in the city of Ro- 

 chester, at such time as this Committee shall hereafter desionate. 



The extending and increasing interest taken by the community at 

 large in these annual exhibitions of the triumphs of agricultural la- 

 bor and skill, was forcibly indicated by the anxiety of members 

 from different parts of the State, to secure for the districts which 

 they represented, the advantages and gratifications derived from this 

 source.
