Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Convention and Central Executive Committee of the South-Western Industrial Fair: To Be Held in New Orleans, in February 1854 The Delegates appointed to this Convention assembled this day, May 3d, 1852, in the City of New Orleans, at the Lyceum, in the City Hall. On motion of Mr. C. C. Lathrop, of Orleans, the Convention proceeded to organize, by the appointment of M. M. Cohen, Esq., as temporary Chairman, and J. B. Walton, as temporary Secretary. Mr. Cohen, upon taking the Chair, stated briefly the object of the Convention, in substance, as follows: Gentlemen - On me devolves the grateful duty of tendering to the delegates from abroad a cordial welcome. With pride and pleasure do I, as the organ of the City Delegation, greet you here as approved colleagues in a noble undertaking. We rejoice in an occasion which enables us to make the acquaintance of some and renew that of others among you. We will gladly avail ourselves of the benefits which arise from an exchange of ideas and a union of energies and intelligence. Among the many advantages to result from the Fair which we propose to hold, the first and the most precious is that it will create and continue kind feelings among citizens of different States. Next to this sweet interchange of courtesies and promotion of friendship, I regard as the chief blessing to be conferred by the proposed Fair, the stimulating the skill and enterprise and developing the resources of our country, the spread of commerce and the diffusion of knowledge Nor among its results would I forget the advancement of agricultural, mechanical and other industrial pursuits. It will also tend to diversify labor and find new employment for industry and encourage manufactures. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
