First sentence: IN the following pages the object will be to convey to the reader a correct outline of the appearance of the surface of the State, and the materials which make up that surface and the underlying crust of the earth, so far as penetrated either by the farmer's plough or the miner's pick; to describe the drainage system of the State in its relation to the location of mills and factories; the transportation of materials of export and import, and the natural supply of timber for building or manufacturing, as they appear to one making a mineralogical, geological, and physical survey.
