RAMIE*.
Editors Son (hern Cultivator—Atten
tion is; frequently Called through the
prejis to a fibrous plant recently intro
dmed into Louisiana f»y M. Benito
KoeJ from Mexico, which in its new
habitat, takes the name of Ramie.—
This plant so famous among the Net
tles, or Urticeais called Boehmeriu
nivea by botanists. The beautiful fab
ric called China-grass cloth, has been
known as long a* Europeans have
trafficked with Celestials. In China it
is called Tchou-ma, or Chinese Hax*; in
Sumatra, Caloee; but the Malays call
it Ramee. It is the Riicenof Assam;
Kunkhoora of Rungpore. Its culture is
well known to the natives of Assam,
Burinah, Siara, Java, and of other
Eastern countries and islands. Dr.
Boyle states; “In the year 1810,
three bales of this Caloee fibre were
sent to the India House, having been
produced in the Botanical Garden at
Calcutta. In December 1810, one of
these bales were sent to Messrs. Sharp,
then of Mark Lane. On the 4lh of
February, ISIS, they r reported, that
having brought ttie Caloee fibre to the
state of hemp, for the use of cordage, a
thread was spun, of.die size of tho.-e
spun in the King’s Rope-vard, which
bore 252 lbs., whereas the weight re
quired to be borne in his Majesty’s yard
by Russian hemp of the same size, is
only 82 jbs.”
Two English gentleman were induc
ed to cultivate a small portion of land
in Assam with this fibre. They, sent
eleven bales of what they called Rhcea
fibre to the Court of Directors of the
East India Company, upon which the
following report was made
“The Rheea fibre for warded by the
Government of Bential as the produce
of Assam, in order that its properties
and value tna}" be correctly ascertained
in this country, (England) appears like
ly to prove one of the most valuable
products of India, for in strength it far
exceeds the best hemp, and id fineness
it rivals superior kinds of flax. If any
machine could be invented for facilita
ting the separation of.the fibre from the
woody pa/t of tne stalks, the Rheea
would speedily undersell all other
fibres, as four to five crops of fibre can
be obtain* d from the same plants with
in a year.
“The Rheea fibre, though a now im
port fr-om Assam, is well known under
anoth*r name, being identical with the
highly valued article of commerce,
known by the name of China-grass, the
Chu-ma of the Chinese, and from which
the lamed grass cloth of China is man
ufactured. The proof is very complete
of the identity of the plants from which
lhese two differently named fibres ;ue
obtained. One of the educated Chinese
introduced into Upper Assam on -the
establishment of the Tea Manufactory
in that Valley, recognized the Rheea as
identical with the Chu-ma of bis own
country. The Rheea of Assam has
been ascertained by botanists to be the
same plant as the (Jrtica ienacissima of
Roxburgh, who half a century ago was
informed by a friend at Canton that the
plant which he had obtained as the
Caloee of the Sumatra, and to which he
had given the above botanical name,
was that from which the China-grass
clot h was made. Lately, Dr. Macgow-
ati settled at Ningpo, sent specimens of
is done by Durham, Ayrshire, or Al
derney cattle; by setters, pointers,
greyhounds, and in a word by any and
all animals of distinct and perfect va
rieties of ihe same species.
The points of this peculiar breed are
that fhey are much taller than ordinary
horses; their standard is probabl}’ from
fourteen and a half to sixteen hands
high. Secondly, they are very short
in the saddle place, and comparatively
long below ; they are well ribbed up,
and round barrelled, instead of having
ihe flat sides and sway backs which
are I lie defective points in most Ameri
can horses; their heads are short, with
the genuine Arabian breadth of brow
and hollow of the profile between thp
eyes and nostrils; their necks are well
arched, and sufficiently long to corres
pond with the general stoutness of their
frames; their legs are particularly short'
from the knees and hocks downward,
and although heavily haired they are
not shaggy, while they have unyielding,
iron-like siuews, and feet apparently
unconscious of disease.
A writer in The British, Quarterly
Journal of Agriculture, speaking of this
class of horses, says : “The horses of
Normandy are a capital race for hard
work and scanty fare. I have never
seen such horses at the collar, under
the diligence, the post-carriage, the
cumbrous and heavy voitre or cabriolet
for one or two horses, or the farm cart.
-They are enduring and energetic be
yond description. With I heir necks
cut to the bone, they flinch not; they
put forth all their efforts at the voice of
the brutal driver, or at the dreaded
sound of his never ceasing whip; they
keep their condition when other horsc-s
would die of neglect and hard treat
ment.”
Mr. Harris, of Morristown, New Jer
sey, in Youalt on the Horse, says:—
“These horses first came under my ob
servation on a journey through France
in tire year 1831. I was struck with
the immense power displayed by them
in drawing the heavv diligences of that
country, at a pace which altogether not
as rapid as the stage coach traveling of
England, yet such a pace, say from five
to nine miles per hour, the lowest rate
of which I do not hesitate to say, woul i
in a short time kill the English horse if
placed before the same load.”

ihe Chu-ma to Calcutta. These Dr. through life, one who is to mould and
Falconer found to be* the same plant as
the Boehmeriu nivea of botanists, de
scribed under the name of (Jrtica tc/m-
cissima by Roxbutglf. He says, “the
specimens bom China correspond ex
actly with those grown in the botanical
with which I have compared them.”
Sir William Hooker has also identified
these two plants as being identical, and
has described the former as yielding
China-grass. Further, manufacturers
in Great Britain have found the two
fibres to be the same for all practical
purposes.
In 186-3, the- writer carried some
plants of the Ramie to Fernandina,
where they were plained and grew
vigorously. No care was bestowed
upon them, and afier struggling with
weeds, cattle and hogs tor three year9
nearly all perished. 1 nave compared
those with the Ramie introduced by
M. Benito Roezl into Louisiana, and
find them identical.
The Ramie is propagated by seeds,
by sub-division ofthe roots, b}' cuttings
and by layers. Being very prolific, a
few roots may be increased in a single
season, to give a thousand plants. In
the latitude of Florida, three and per
haps four cuttings may be bad in a sea
son. The first yields coarse fibre,
suitable only for cordage, but the sec
ond and third give fibre from which-the
finest labricsof India are manufactured.
There is no marketable value of the
fibre in this country. It has sold in
England at £20, <£4.0, .£60 and in one
instance as high as <£120 per ton.—
Like all other staple fibres, the price
will be governed by “supply and de
mand.” There can be little doubt,
however, but the fibre tor many years
will rule much higher lhau the best
grades of cotton for exportation.
• The introduction ofthe plant should
be promoted by the Government- The
Agricultural Department at Washing
ton might, at a small outlay, furnish
plants to cultivators, and thus increase
the National wealth. What is most to
be feared, is that a lew speculators will
give it a moius multicaulus inflation.
