TeEcHNeLoGY, MECHANIC ARTS, For- 
RESTRY. 
The bookfeller Roch, of Leipzig, pub- 
lithes two well-conducted journals, and 
which contribute much to the populari- 
zation of ufeful inventions :—‘ Die dko- 
nomiiche Hefte,’”. and the ‘* Journal fur 
Fabrik und Handlung,”’ which is well 
calculated to diffufe ufetul knowledge re- 
lative to manufactures and commerce. 
Almof every art and trade has found its 
peculiar writers and hiftoriographers: the 
greateft activity in particular prevails in 
Germany, in applying the mathematical 
f{ciences to the improvement of the ufeful 
and mechanic arts, as appears from the 
numerous publications of Bufch, Brod- 
hagen, Buffe, &c. &c. Poppe, of Got. 
tingen, has given us a well-executed Hif- 
tory of the Art of Clock and Watch- 
making—(Leipzig, Roch). 
An excellent work ‘* On the Applica- 
tion of Mechanics and Hydraulics to 
ArchiteCture,”” with many plates, has 
been pubdlifhed at Berlin by Eytelwein, 
from whofe connection with Gilly we ftill 
expe&t many mature fruits. 
In moft of the provinces of Germany a 
want of fuel begins to be felt, owing, in a 
great meafure, to the ravages of a de- 
fiructive caterpillar-—to an adherence to 
long-eftablifhed abufes in the pafturing 
of cattle, &c.—to the late requilitions of 
the French, and to the increafed confump- 
tion in fpite of the fuel-faving coniri- 
vances of Count Rumford. Accordingly 
a number of publications have appeared 
on the means of remedying thefe evils 
——on the proper management of the woods 
—-and on the fcience of venery and for- 
reftry in general; to teach which no lefs 
than nine academies have already been efta- 
blithed by German Princes. Seckendorf 
Hill continues, in his ‘* Forft Rugen,”’ to 
excite the atrention of his countrymen in 
the Ele€torate of Saxony to thts important 
fnbject; and with the fame view Franz 
hat fenc forth his “‘ Freimuthige Gedan- 
kev: Uber unfere heutige Forft und Land- 
Retrofped? of German Literature— Eafter-fair, 1801. 
wirth-{chaft,”” Leipzig, Fleifcher. Von 
Witzleben, Director of a flourithing for- 
reftrial Academy in Helle, has given us 
a fecond edition of his ufeful work on the 
culture of foreft-trees, ‘* Beitrage zur 
Holz-Kultur.”” Von Vildungen continues 
his ‘¢ Forefters’ Calendar;’’ Profeffor 
Leonhardi, of Leipzig, his ‘* Magazin . 
fur Jagt und Forftwefen,”’ with coloured 
plates; and Gatterer and Mofer their 
‘* Archiv fur Forftwefen.”” 
RuRAL ECoNomy. 
All the branches of rural economy have 
lately been much cultivated by many of 
the German noblemen and gertlemen. 
Happy will it be for that country, if, in- 
ftead of wafting their time m hunting and 
in poring over regimental mufter-rolls, 
the great landholders followed the ex- 
ample of M. von Teilitzfch, of Anfpach, 
who has communicated to the public the 
refults of his long experience and im- 
provements in his ‘* CEkonomifch-prak- 
tifche Bemerkungen tiber den Ackerbau,”” 
{2 vols. Hof, Gran.) ;—-of the patriotic 
Munchhaufen of Saxony, who has given 
us an account of the manner in which he 
has abolifhed the oppreffive feudal fervices 
on his eftates, ‘* Umflandlicher Bericht 
von der auf dem Rittergute Steinberg 
vongenommenen Aufhebung der Frohn- 
dienfte, Leipzig, Rabenhorft:"'—or of M. 
von Richthoten, of Silefia, who has pub~ 
lifhed a fyftematically arranged fketch of 
a theory of agriculture, ** Syitematifch. 
geordneter Entwurf der Ackerbau-Theo- 
rie,” in 2 vols. ; 
M. Riem, fecretary to the Saxonian 
Economical Society in Drefden, has given 
us a new colleétion of papers relative to 
rural economy and the keeping of bees, 
‘* Fine neue Sammlung okonomilfcher und 
Bienenfchriften aufs Jahr 1801 ;"—and 
Gaudig, an excellent work, containing 
inftructions in every branch of rural eco- 
nomy, founded on an experience of 30 
years, ‘* Auf dreiflig-jahrige Erfahrung 
fich griindender Unterricht der ganzen 
Landwirth{caft,”” (2 vols. Leipz. Rein.), 
A number of other fmaller pieces on 
rural economy, on police, &c. have ap- 
peared, which, though they fhould efcape 
the attention of the 20 Reviews publifhed 
in Germany, will no doubt at Jaft be ar- 
ranged in their proper places by the mufter- 
mafter-general of the hoft af German au- 
thors, Dr. Erscu, in his. ‘* Allgemeines 
Repertorium,’’ which is to contain an 
alphabetically arranged lift of all the ~ 
works that have appeared in Germany and 
other countries. Three volumes in quarte,
