This motion animously prevailed. "he fivst speech of the afternoon session was delivered by Hon. William Freeman of Maine on ‘‘The Agricultural Interests of Maine and the Eastern States”” The ad- dress was one of the best of the session and was heartily applauded. 1In brief, Mr. Free- man's remarks were as follow ¢“At the convention at Montgomery, Ala., last year, some one placed on the desks of the members a piece of paper conveying the in- formation t New England produced on her farrns on ugh to last her population just seventeen days, It will be my province to undecave those, if there be any such, who entertain such an erroncous idea of the agri- cultural products of the east. This congress, in order to act intelligently for the mterests of agriculture, in all its branches, shonld possess o kuowledgs of every industry which draws its life blood from it. When we consider that two-thirds of the population of the United States are cither wholly en- paged in agricultural pursuits or indiveetly interested in them, we need not stop toin- quire what class of peoplo iscapable of wicld- ing the greatest power in this nation, “Itis true that there is not so large a pro- ortion of the vopulation of the n agricnltural pursuits as in the west, 3 New England, which is honeycombed” with manufacturing establishments and other in- , the ugricultural intercsts form no insignificant paxt of the industries.” "Ihe speaker went on atlength to present statistics of Maine and New Eogland, show- ing the number and velue of farin lands, the statistics of the various kinds of crops, | stock fucts, points about fruits and factories closely allied to the farm. Continuing, ne L8125 00 . 250 00 'hese are some of the many indastries of the eastern states which draw their life from the husbandman and which could not exist but for his labos, and which too is necessary should p n order that agriculture should thrive; that a market may be found for all the agricultural products not oily of the cast, but which the earth yields from her bosom under the skillful hauds of man in the south and west, on the Pac slope as well as on the Atlantic coast and ss the borders of the great gulf, Agriculture in Maine s on the increase, present census will show thut her far- wmers us o class have been prosperous, while throughout the whole country it is w kunown that, as a general rule, farming is in a somewhat depressed condition. “It. s true and we do not conceal the fact that there has been fn the past & large emi- gration from New England and from Maine ially. The cengus of 185 shows that 7 of the sons and _daughters of Maine have gone to swell the population and in- crease the wealth and intelligence of all the states and territories of the union. They are your honorable and distinguished citizens, They help form the props and foundations of your best societies. They are supporters of religion, morality and virtue. withstanding this seeming drain from y vitals of New Eogland aud Maino they both continue to increase in wealth und population.
