Book Description
Excerpt from The American Almanac and Repository of Useful Knowledge: For the Year 1837 The eighth volume of the American Almanac, which is now presented to the public, contains the usual quantity and variety of matter. For information relating to the astronomical department, the reader is again referred to the Preliminary Observations of Mr. Paine. Explanations relating to various other topics treated of, may be found in difi'erent parts of the work. This volume of the Almanac, besides the usual register of the national and state governments, an American and foreign obituary, and chronicle of events, contains, among various other matters, a valuable treatise on the Use of Anthracite Coal, an account of Public Libraries, a Statistical View of the Population of the United States, a series of tables relating to the Cultivation, Manufacture, and Foreign Trade of Cotton, and Meteorological notices of Seasons and the Weather; but the subject more espec ially treated of under the Individual States, is that of internal improvement, particularly canals and Runaoans. This is a subject which has of late engrossed a great deal of attention in the United States. Within a few years, extraordinary changes with respect to travelling and the facilities of intercourse between the difi'erent parts of the country, have taken place; and' many further important improvements are now in progress. A brief general view of these changes may be seen in the Preliminary Observations prefixed to the notices of the Individual States.
