selling them on the stocks. In the Palmyra and James H. Shepherd, they retained a share. The captain of the former was named Cushing and was a brother of Mr. David Cushing of Medford. Captain St. Croix Redman commanded the James H. Shepherd, and although Mr. Shepherd owned the major part of her, the captain and the builders each had an interest in her. The Soldan, the last ship built, lay on the stocks all summer before a purchaser was found. She was bought in part by George Pratt. Captain Shaw, her commander, and Sprague and James had a share in her. These ships plied between New Orleans and Antwerp, doing business principally in cotton. These ventures to sea in the main proved profitable. It is impossible now to tell the fate of all the ships of Sprague and James, but though some were wrecked and others were outclassed when the new style of clipper ships came in, they were good vessels, built on honor, and their commanders were proud of them. Captain Redman, writing of

One solitary success is recorded as having been achieved, on 'a small scale,' by Mr. Shaw, collector at Dharwar, who, taking up the enterprise in 1840, upon an area of only 220 acres, developed the results so rapidly that in 1851 there were 31,688 'kupas' planted with American, and 224,314 with native cotton, and in 1856 the area ince in 1840, upon an area of only 220 acres, developed the results so rapidly that in 1851 there were 31,688 'kupas' planted with American, and 224,314 with native cotton, and in 1856 the area increased to 156,316 kupas appropriated to the American, and 230,567 to the native variety of the plant. It does not appear that Mr. Shaw was assisted by any Government grant in this work; and, at all events, all direct co-operation of the State with the cultivation of cotton is now summarily abandoned."

roposition has assumed; but we take it for granted an act will be passed and a sum of money appropriated. General Lee died in the year 1818, at the house of Mrs. Shaw, the grand-daughter of General Nathaniel, Green, on Cumberland Island. He had been to the West Indies to recover his health, which had been in a low condition fosite to Cumberland, from which it is separated, we believe, by St. Mary's Sound. The officers — he among the rest — frequently visited in the neighborhood — at Mrs. Shaw's, among other houses. He had never heard that Gen. Lee had been lying ill at Mrs. Shaw's, until one morning he received an invitation to attend his funeral thaMrs. Shaw's, until one morning he received an invitation to attend his funeral that day. As the distance was ten miles, all the way by water, and as Capt. Payne had but a single small boat at his command, he could not, of course, carry over his company, which he otherwise would have done. At the time, however, Capt. Henley, of the corvette John Adams, was lying in the sound. He turned out, with his whole crew,<
