cidentally misplaced and was not noticed til the other part was print ed The report of the Commissioners Messrs and An derson who were sent to Michigan by the Government to investigate the beet root sugar industry in that State has been laid upon the table The volume also includes the report of J Superintendent of Farmers Institutes who went to the same State and Prof Shuttle worths conclusions
