In the Lancaster Journal of September 8th, 1820, there is an
excellent charge of Judge Franklin to the Grand Jury, on the subject
of the Act of Assembly "for promoting agriculture and domestic
manufactures." I think it well deserving a place in your Magazine;
as it contains, in epitome, much useful and impressive advice on
the importance of agriculture, and the formation of agricultural
societies; by the instrumentality whereof both the principle,
and practice of husbandry can be successfully promoted, and most
effectually encouraged.--Your obedient servant,
