The exhibition of this national society, which will be held near this city on Monday, August 31, inst., will far surpass in interest all the exhi- bitions the country has yet witnessed. The dis- piay of cattle and horses will be unparalleled, pa Po all the other departments the show will be the most attractive one that has yet been held by the National Society. The mode of exhibition at this fair will be altogether ditferent from that which has prevailed at the former exhibition of the society. Ditferent classes of stock and horses will be shown for competition each day in the spacious and splendid amphitheatre. The floral ball will be well stocked with the choicest col- lections of fruits and flowers. The gallery of fine arts will contain a number of specimens of paintings and =e by the most celebrated artists, among which will bea life-size “Sabina,” and probably the original Powers’ “ Greek Slave.’ The manufacturers’ hall will present a fine display of manufactured articles, and the machine hal! will be filled with engines and ma- ebines of all description in operation. Nothing so complete has ever been opened for the public in this en and no effort has been omitted to make the exhibition unequalled in attractions. A vast concouse of visiters from every State in the Union will be in attendance. and at the grand banquet, with which the exhibition will be closed, a host of the most distinguished men of the nation will be present. The grounds are spacious, and fitted up with elegance.

And be it further enacted, That to in- sure far as may be practicable, an equal rate of compensation, ing to the service formed among the several railroad companies United States for the transportation of the mail, it shail be the duty of the Postmaster General to ar- range and divide the railroad routes, inoluding t! in which the service is partly by rail stenmboats,into three classes.according to t! of the mails, thes with which they are con the importance of the service; and it shall be lawful for him to contract for conveying the mail with any such railroad company, either with or with- out advertising for such contract: Provided, That for the conveyance of the mai! on any railroad of the first class, he shall not pay a higher rate of compen- sation than is now allowed by law; ror for carrying the mail on say railroad of the second o! & great- er compensation than one hundred dollars per mile per annum ; nor for carrying the mail onany railroad of the third class, greater compensation than fifty dolisrs per mile perannum. And in case the Post- master General shal! not be able to conciude a con- tract for carrying the mail on any of such railroad routes at a compensation not exoseding the afore- maximum rates, or for what he may deema ren- sonable and fair compensation forthe service to be formed, it shal! be lawful for him to separate the etter maui f.om the residue of the mail, and to eon- tract, either with or without advertising,for convoy- ing the letter mail over sueh route, by horse express or otherwise, at the greatest speed # can reason- ably be obtained, and also to contract for oarrying ever such route the residue of the mail, in wagons or otherwise, at a slower rate of speed.} The Postmaster Genoral having made an offer to the trustees of the Northern (Ogdensburgh) Rail road Company for the service on the following route, which they have deolined, and baing unable to make 8 contract for railroad transportation on such terms 4s, in his opinion, are warranted by the above-cited statute,the following advertisement is issued, in compliance with the directions contained therein via: ROPOSALS for carrying the Letter Mals of the United States, also for carry the residue of the tanuls, from the Ist day of October, 1857, to the Sth of June, (inclusive, 1361, on the following route in the State of New York, wil! be received at the Contract Ofice of the Post Otfice Department, in the city of Washington, until the !1tn day of.

Contractors aro to run on the stage road, and to supply all offices off the same by side mails in close connection with the main rou INSTRUCTIONS, 1. The letter mail is to be carried on horseback at, the greatest practicable speed, and the residue of the mau in wagons, or otherwise, at a slower rate of speed. Bidders will state im their proposals the schedule of arrivals and departures by which they propose to run, and the rate of speed to be accom- lished. The Ley sare may set forth distict sums for the letter and for the other mails, or a combined one for the entire service. 2. No pay will be made for trips not performed ; and for each of such omissions not satisfactorily ex pisined three times the pay of the trip may be de- ducted. For arrivals so far behind time as to break connexion with depending mails,and not sufficiently exeused, one-fourth of the compensation for the trip is subject to forfeiture. 3. For leaving behind or throwmg off the mails, or any portion of them, for the admission of passengers, or for being concerned in setting up or running an ex- ess Coureying inteliizence in advance of the mail, & quarter’s pay may be deducted. 4. The Postmaster Generai may annul the contract for repeated failures to run agreeably to contract; for violating the post ofice laws, or disobeying the in- structions of the Department: for refusing to dis- charge a carrier when required by the Department to do so; for assigning the contract withent the assent of the Postmaster General; for running &n express as aforesaid; or for tranxport: Persons or conveying matlable matter out of the mail. 5. Each bid must be guarantied by two responsible Rereone. General guarantees cannot be sdmitted, he tid and guarantee should be signed plainly with the full name of each person. : ‘The Department reserves the right to reject any bid which may be deemed extravagant, and also the bids of failing contractors and bidders.) 6. The bid should be sealed ; superscribad “Mail Proposals, State of -— ,”’ addressed “Second As- nt Postmaster General,” Contract Office, and by mae/, not by or to an agent; and postmasters will not enclose proposals (or letters of any kind) in thevt quarterly returns. 7. The contracts are to be executed and returned tothe department by or before the Ist of October, 1857, but the service must be commenced On the Ist ober, whether the contracts be executed or uot. No proposition for transfers wiil be considered until the contracts are executed and received at the de- ment and no transfers will be allowed un- ess good and sufficient reasons therefor are given, to be determined by the department. 8 A modification of a bid in any of its essential terins is tantamount to a new bid, and cannot be re- ceived, so as to interfere with n regular competition after the last hour set for soomeeas bids. 9. Postmasters are to be careful not to certify the bogey of guarantors as sureties without know- ing that thoy are persons of suiticient responsibility; and all bidders, guarantors, and sureties are distinct- ly notified thal, ona failure to enter into or perform the contracts for the service proposed for in the ac- cepted bids, their legal liabilities will be enforced against them.
