COLEMAN, B. H. WARREN. [- - . 1 Montgomery, Ala., November 23, 1839. This may certify, that I have this year planted the “Okra or Twin i otton,” and seen it growing , in various other places. From the observation of others, as well as my own, I have no hesitancy in recommending it as the most productive Cotton I have ever seen on thin land, —its yield from the , Gin head, and the quality of its staple, very far exeeils the Petit Gulf or Mexican Cotton. If , planted in three feet rows, I believe it capable of ; producing 30001bs. per acre. J. H. Taylor. ' I ■ I This will certify, that I planted a small quantity | I of the Okra or Twin Cotton, and believe it capable i of producing, if properly planted, 3000 to 35001b5. | per acre. I made the following experiment as to j its yield from the Gin head: 4251b5. Okra Cotton • : produced 1561b5. lint, —4251b5. Petit Gulf Cotton I produced 1241b5. lint, making 321bs. lint from that quantity in favor of the Okra Cotton. 1 not only ! believe this co*ton vastly superior in product to j the Petit Gulf, but much so in the quality of its I staple ; it also matures much earlier. November 23, 1839 Jesse P. Tavlob. ! ! This may certify, that 1 planted §ths of an acre , 1 in the “Okra or Twin Cotton,” from which 1 have t ; picked lOOOlbs.of cotton, of a very superior quality, s | and which land I do not believe capable of pro i ducing over 300 to 6001bs per acre of the Petit , i Gulf or Mexican Cotton, owing to its thirsty na , I ture. The great advantage of the Okra *r Twin , | Cotton upon such land is its long tap root, which . j is from two to three times the length of the ordi ! nary cotton. J* W. T. Reid, Shff, M. C.

His attainments as a scholar I and success in imparting useful knowledge, emi- I nently qualify him for the discharge of the im portant duties of his station. Mr. Ring, the principal English Teacher, re cently engaged by the Board, comes with the high- est reoommenda ions as to character, talents, lite [ rary attainments and skill in teaching, and the ; Trustees feel assured that he will sustain the re putation which led to his selection. s The branch of the Academy at Summerville is under the immediate management of Mr. Frank lin (iEorge, a gentleman of experience in teach ing, and highly recommended. The advantage of the location of this branch of the Academy in one , of the most healthful neighborhoods in the State, , and sufficiently remote from ihe unfavorable in . ! fluence of a crowded town, are too well known to r need comment. On the whole, the Board confidently recommend . to public the principal Academy and the Branch . at Summerville, as being on a better footing than they have heretofore been, and piomising great t usefulness to those who may avail themselves of the advantages which they offer.
