SEEDS AND VEGETABLES. 

 Your committee in this department cheerfully attended upon the duties as- 

 signed to them, and beg leave to submit the following report : There were thirty- 

 seven eutries of Seeds and ninety-five of Vegetables, all remarkably good speci- 

 mens. Many of the Vegetables were of maramoMi size, and compare favorably 

 with former years. The Seeds were of such uniform good qualily that it was 

 with difficulty that your committee could decide upon the best. One fortunate 

 and far-seeing competitor kept a bushel of ears seed corn over from last year ; 

 being too stale for our purpose, it was thrown out, and we recommend that he fur- 

 nish fresh Seeds, and comply with the rules of the society. We award as follows :
