THU COTTON CULTURE IN INDIA. I
One of the superintendents of this enter, j
prise says tliat it only “ requires the means ;
of constant application, decision, industry,
•V. perseverance, to make this beautiful and
productive country the largest producer of
Colton in the World/’ — Balt. Sun.
Wo copy the above with the viewofkeep
ing our subscribers in cotton growing re
gions of our country advised, ol the rise &
progress of the efforts now making by (5.
Britain, to furnish from her dominions in
India, a supply of cotton tor the consump
tion of her manufacturers. Whether the
British superintendent be or be not too san
guine in his calculations, we have no pres
ent means to determine ; but from our
knowledge of the enterprise and indomita
ble spirit, with which our transatlantic
neighbors pross onwards with any thing j
promising reward to skill and capital, we |
cannot doubt for a moment that, in the pres
ent instance, they will leave no effort unex
erted to secure success. That the climate
of India is peculiarly adapted to the growth
of this groat staple, there can be no quos
tion, nor is there any, that whatsoever can
be accomplished by money and untiring in
dustry will be achieved. Interest, pri
vate and public, as well as national, and
as national pride, all combine to the fur
ther promotion of this project, & when such
be the case, it is time for us to look to the
danger, of losing a good customer, in the
face. By so doing we have every thing to
gain and nothing to lose. If England
should succeed in producing a supply of)
cotton for home fabrication, it will become j
our planters to diversify their products and
adapt their pursuits to their then changed
relations. That they will be able to do so
no one who understands the American char
acter—who has witnessed the exercise of
that versatile talent which enables us to
shape our course to suit events —will for a
moment doubt. It may be said that Eng
land has not as yet succeeded— true, she
has not; but it is the part of wisdom to an
ticipate events, where their occurrence are
probable, and such being the case, it may
be well for those whose interests are to be
seriously affected, to look around them and j
see what can be done, should India be con- \
verted into a cotton producing country, to j
render the lands now appropriated here to
its culture, equally available on the score j
of profit to its proprietors.

A Remarkable Fruit Tree. —At Golnitz j
in Altenburgh, Mr. Gricola lias a single
tree, that bears over Three Hundred differ j
ent Sorts of apples and other kind of fruit. I
This lie has effected bv inoculating and j
grafting, and he has fastened to every ;
branch bearing a different sort, a little I
board with the name of the sort it bears.— ‘
This tree has a curious and strange appear |
ante from the various shapes and colors of.
the leaves, blossoms and fruits.
When the Russians, many years ago *
bivouacked near this tree, they were so I
surprised at its odd shape and number of I
liltle boards, that they did not injure it, al
though they cut down the other fruit trees’
for firewood:—Here was an extensive or- j
chard on a single tree of more than 300 |
sorts of fruit!
A GLASS COFFIN.
A man named James Fryer, one of the
workmen employed at the new glass house.
Mexborough, near Doncaster, has manu
factured a glass coffin, which he has be.
qu'allied to his cousin, who holds a situa
tion in Guy’s hospital, London, for his own
body to be inclosed in when he dies, so that j
his cousin will see if he rots any faster I
than if he was coffined in lead. The cof
fin is made of clear glass, quarter of an
inch thick, six feet two inches long, 21 in
dies across the bosom, and 15 inches deep.
He lias ornamented it with blue glass,
death’s bead and cross bones on tlie sides,
and his name is inscribed on the lid.

PROPOSALS
FOE fUBLISHING BY SUBSCRIPTION
A FULL REPORT OF THE-
Geological and Agricultural
SURVEY OF THF
©IF ©E©lE©o^ 3
nn HE Legislature, attheir last session, deem-
I ed it expedient to discontinue the salary of
the State Geologist, in consequence of the em
barrassed finances of the State. By this unex
pected movement, the subscriber is deprived of
the means of completing the survey ol the State,
on the original plan: it done at all, it must be
at individual risk and expense.
It is needless, perhaps, to represent to the en
lightened citizens oi Georgia, that by following
out the plan so happily commenced in 1837, and
pursued with unremitting energy to the present,
the State has been contributing her mite, hum
ble as it may be on the part of her agent, to the
cause of general science in our country, and the
advancement of intellectual improvement among
her citizens, in accordance with other States of
the Union. There is but one alternative. In the
present situation or the survey, the work must
either be abandoned and tne important informa--
tion obtained by four years investigation oi the
Geology of the State, lost to her c itizens, or the
subscriber must depend lor support, on individ
ual patronage. He is determined to make an et
fort for the benefit and honor of his adopted Stale,
to proceed with the survey. From former ex
perience of the unbounded liberality and gene
rous hospitality of his fellow citizens, in differ
ent. parts of the State, he is confident that,, in
making an appeal to their sympathy and patron
age, it will not be made in vain.
That a complete survey may be made of the re-
maining counties of the State, and the whine
consolidated and published for the information
and benefit of the citizens, public patronage is
most respectfully solicited. A work ot this kind,
is much needed in Georgia, a State comprising
an avea of sixty thousand square miles, being
destitute of a single correct A lap, Geography,, or
history oi the same. A majority of the citizens
must, from necessity, be unacquaimed w ith the
rich mineral resources and agricultural capaci
ties of the different sections. I’ avored as the
subscriber lias been, by tour years labor,, as
State Geologist, .11 different parts ot the State,
in collecting materials lor a complete report ol
an Agricultural and Geological survey and Na
tural History, lie trusts that lie shall be able to
meet the approbation oi his fellow citizens.
The subscriber pledges Ins honor, that the
proceeds arising from subscription for the work
shall be appropriated to the completion ot the
survey of the remainiug counties ol the State,
and that they shall be finished as they will be
needed lor publication.
