Sir, — The York County Agricultural Society met yesterday and appointed a committee to import a Horse for the County, from Great Britain, under the terms of a Resolution of the Legislature of the 3d of May last ; the committee were instructed to invite the co-operation of other Counties in the measure, and we wish to know if your Society be disposed to join with us. We propose that an agent or perhaps two be sent home as early in July as possible, with instructions from each Society as to the description of Horse wanted, .'and the necessary funds, letters of credit, &tc. Time is important and immediate action necessary. We propose to have a meeting at Fredericton on the 30th instant, to nominate the agent and furnish him with instructions, &;c., and if you are disposed to act with us, please to appoint some person to represent you at the meeting, at which it is proposed that each County shall have an equal voice in selecting the agent. We are expecting the New Brunswick Society to join us in an application to the Executive, for an advance of funds in aid, or such other action as will enable us to act without assuming too heavy a pecuniary responsibility. The Council meet on the 21st instant. Our Committee consists of Messrs. J. A. BECKWITH, LEWIS HUESTIS, THOMAS MURRAY, -^- GEORGE MOREHOUSE, ^ JOHN DUFFY, and DR. ROBB, and we will be glad to be informed if we may expect to hear from you at the meeting. On behalf of the Committee, I am, sir, your obedient servant, f J. A. BECKWITH, Chairman. House of Assembly, Tuesday, May 3rd, 1853. On motion of Mr. Earle, Whereas it is of importance to the Agricultural and Lumbering Interests of the Country, that a superior breed of Horses should be imported into the Province from Great Britain, Canada, or the United States ; therefore Resolved, That an humble Address be presented to His Excellency the Lieutenant Governor, praying that His Excellency, on the applitatioa of the Agricultural Societies in the respective Counties of this Province, through the President and Secretary of the principal Society in each County, setting forth that such Society has actually imported from Great Britain, Canada, or the United States, a superior Stud Horse, approved of by such Society, and that the same will be kept within such County for at least three years from the time of arrival in this Province, with an account of the expence incurred in purchasing and importing the same, duly attested, will be pleased in each of such cases to cause a Warrant to issue in favor of the President of such principal Society, for a sum not exceeding £250, provided that such Warrant shall be for £50 less than the cost of the said Horse when landed in this Province. This resolution was concurred in by the Legislative Coi'ncil. \
