Is before US. OF the internal CONCERNS of thar
state, he observes, g it affords me great satisfac-
ton 10 inform you that more than usual proici-
ency has been made in extending and improving
agriculture and manufactures. The liberal pat
ronagc which the Legislature has been pleased to
extend TO domestic manufactures, by loans and
bouuties, has been attended with the most salu-
tary effect. The enlightened policy OF few III
dividnas has also introduced breed Of sheep
which essentially promotes the fabrication of
cloths ofa superior quality" He also submits
to their decision, &C whether, by further encour-
agements, an additional stimulous may not be
created which will enable our citizens to con-
vince foreign nations that we arc not dependent
on them for manufactures"
