The build- ings within the enclosure are about twelve in number, besides the committee tents. The refreshment booths are calculated to reat 1,0(0 persons. The principal build- ing is 100 feet square, whilst the others are of proportion ate dimensions, including feed house, cattle, &e. These grounds are fitted up for the permanent occu- pancy of the society for the next ten years, having been purchased by our citizens on the joint stock system, Who give the use of it to the society. At the end of ten yeara it is presumed that this land will be required for building lots. and will command an enormous price, when it is to be sold in lots, anew ground for the society, purchased out of the proceeds, and the balance to be dividend to the stockholders. ‘Quite a neat little finan- cial arrangement. ‘The number of verrels in the port of Baltimore, on Sa- turday. exolusive of bay craft, were :~-24 ships, 17 barks, 19 brigs, and 94 schooners, cmounting in allto 81; of which pumter there were, from the West Indies. 6; ‘Rio Janeiro, 3; Liverpool, 2; Rotterdam, 2; and one cach to Bt.
