The legislature of Georgia, from a mistaken notion of economy, have for ages persistently refused to appropriate a dollar for a geological survey of the state, which would develop her mineral wealth equal to more than doubling the value of her real estate amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars, besides bringing into our country an equal amount of capital and skilled labor, by giving the necessary information to those abroad who wish to know the adaptation of this country to their pursuits in life before they will come. Our proud and rich old state, by this culpable neglect, is left a quarter of a century behind the age, and a blank in science!
