that if Regular and certain returns f-

operate partially to divert the course

be thereby, in. a measure, the means
of its eekirig a natural one. Ve

.whenever the members of the Board are aSt
pertained, thejwlll not be averse to learning
the opinions aniwishes of their fellow-citi
zens and constituents and I should esteem
it fortunate, if these hintA should be ther
means of eliciting from others, a simitar dis
closure of their views respecting this iuipor-
tant subject : a subj ct more j closely allied
with our interests at present, and niore wor
thy of our attention, than the political con
cerns of all the world besides. ' Such intima
tions, however, are to be' regarded, not as
rules to'direct, them, but as materials, which
they may make use of to a greater or less
extent, as they shall see fit. But 1 hope that
.they, and all the Agricultural Societies, will
remember one thing at least, that this money
has been appropriated on purpose to be ex
. pended, and that it is not to be laid up, but
j to be laid out, for th - good of posterity'
I With regard, Sir; to the particular mode of
, advancing the interests of agriculture and
(rural economy which Is recommended iy
the Kowan JSocietynameiy, " l o appropriate
a part of the agricultural fund to defray the
expenses of Geological Surveys," I have had
some opportunity to judge of its utility, both
from inquiring into its objects, and from ob
serving what has been dotie in this . way a
broad. But before discussi ng that subj ect,
I beer leave t suefirest a few ideas' on the
ver reptighiint they may be to the feelings.

because, when considered in relation to ihdi

alds something fo each individual, its impor

to tne rich man a vast increase of his profits. .

niost important sum to theaggregateAmount
Nor is this additional sum limited to the. pre

mount of succeeding years and age. Hence
ally improvement which is made in a mecha
nical art, which is carried brf to a Kieat extenti
is esteemed of great value, although; in itself, J
it may appear inconsiderable. : I'hus in the '
art of tanning leather; of manufacturing cot-j

which affect the; amount of each individual j

FKOM THE WI3TTAW INTELIGEWCER.
Mr. Editor, The R.Vd Mr Frey
has taken his departure from us, bear
ing with hiih the good wishes 'of the
citizens of G'eorgetowiu Ittwasf ifi
leed pleasing to mark tlielTespeclful,;
attention which was exhibited to this
enynent Apostle of Truth. Crowd
ed audiences attended the .different
Churches where he had been invited
to preach, and witnessed with solemn
emotions, his 'learned illustrations of
G ispel Truths' I was however, more
than pleasing to witness the friendly
reception which he met with fr.om the
members of the Hebrew Church. Se
rious and respectful attention was paid
to his public lectures, and private in
terviews closed with: mutual exnres-
with less labour than we are obliged to em
) ploy at present ? But the Question , is; How
can we employ the same labour to a better
j purpose, so as to augment bur annual profits.
I to miiltiplv the comforts and conveniences of
hre, and to increase-the wealth and respecta
bility of the State ? It is said, that agricul
ture, as Ayell as the Other arts, is susceptible
of great improvement- that the.t'armers of
one country cany it oh to much greater ad
vantage than those of another and that a
similar , diff erence is ' apparent in - different
parts of our own country. We wish to ob
tain the secret, and learn how to render ouf
; lands more productive to make them bring
us better crops Without wearing out. In
short, we have two objects in view ; first,
to ascertain how we may increase our -pre-
sent prohts ; ana seconaiy, now we may ren-'
der our estates pertnaneitily jnore productive
and valuable. Such; Sir, are my, sentiments
and wishes, and 1 believe too, that I speak
the minds of all my brother farmers, who
feel any interest in the improvements coh
templated or have any serious determination
to lend a hand towards helping them for
ward. ':''.'' . ' 1-' n ' :.; -..- - -.. . ....
In the first place, then, we hope that the
