We are glad to announce the second meetingof the convention, and, from 

 the reputation of the gentlemen who have been appointed Stale committees, 

 we are assured that the occasion will be one of very great importance, and 

 attended with the happiest results. The city of Syracuse, where the 

 convention is to be held, is one of the most central points which could 

 have been selected, both for the Western, as well as the New England, 

 States, and we trust to see a full assemblage of members, who will 

 come prepared to achieve all that the most ardent friends of pomological 

 conventions have anticipated.
