naturally fterile, has been brought into a 
high ftate of cuitivation. Itis no lefs furs 
prifing than true, that very fine and thriving 
planrations are now raifing on land, woich, 
naturally, produced not a tree of any kind 5 
but was, tiil within a-few years patt, avait 
plain of chalk, covered only by a few inches~ 
of fand, fo extremely light, tliat it fhitted - 
and blew avout, like new fallen fnow, with 
every gut ot wind. ‘The neatnets and com- 
forts obiervable in the ‘dwellings even of 
the meaneft cottagers, and the flately man- 
fions which the farmers occupy, are no lefs 
matter of admiration to ftrangers, than the 
cegree of intelligence, and fpirit of improve « 
ment, which their hofpitaole eal pole
