Lairds of that pan ad'ed the Sena do Castello, arc well known. It

also abundance of timber, and Dread and other valuable dying
The fertility of the soil, the salubrity of the climate, and
its vicinity to Rio de Janeiro and the Atlantic, which form its
southern and eastern boundaries, render its situation favourable for
mining undertakings.
It is bounded on the north by the Dom, a river of conahlsvable
niagnitude, which (terns a channel of communication for several
imulred miles, with Alines Genies, and other of the richest pro_
sitters in the interior of Brasil, and flows into the Atlantic, on the
northern aide of the province of Espirito Santo, passing near the
boss of the Serra do Castello, and possessing a harbour at ha mouth,
with a safe and convenient anchorage for vessels of burthen.

•• that taking into consideration the benefits to be expected from
the introduction of capital, artisans, miners, labourers and ma-
chinery necessary for the regular working of mines, according' to
