THE last live and twenty years will 

 form a memorable epoclia in tlie 

 annals of i'rencli industry. Most of the 

 cvtraordinaiy events that have succeod- 

 cd each other have concurred to favour 

 its progress. France, deprived of her 

 coloni( s, bloekaded at all her frontiers, 

 found herself reduced to rely fin her 

 own internal strength ; and by raising a 

 contriliulion of tlie knowledge of her in- 

 habitants, and of the productions of her 

 soil, she lias been enabled to satisfy all 

 Ijtr wants, to create arts which before 

 bad uo cxi»teiicc, to improve those that 



were known, and to I'cn^Jcr herself inde- 

 pendant of foreign countries for the 

 greatest part of tbe articles of iier con- 

 sumption.* Thus we have successively 

 seen improved the arts of refining salt- 

 petre ; the manufactiue of arms and of 

 powder ; of tanning leather ; of spinning 

 cotton, wool, and llax ; of weaving gene- 

 rally, and the execution of several other 

 arts to which we were strangers ; such as 

 the decomposition of sea-salt for the ex- 

 traction of soda; the formation of ainai 



• As Count Chaptal writes this under 

 the Boiii'bons, he i», of course, unable to 

 name the foreign authors of these priva-

 Ecrvation, however, to encourage other 

 nations to make similar exertions when- 

 ever tlicy may he exposed to similar confe- 

 deracies from the same causes.
