To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The plaster had risen in price, to thirty dollars per ton, and at last conld not be procured on any terms. Man is full of expedients, and without the res- training influences of religion is not over honest. A man in the north-western part of the State, (whether the public finally decided him to be a knave, or an ignoramus, I do not recollect) pretended to have discovered a bed of plaster, which he offered for sale at ten dollars per ton. The farmers from Renssellaer, Albany, and adjoining count...ies, in a circuit of an hundred miles, went in their sleighs to lay in their store of plaster. The article was as hard as granite, and many a mill-stone was broken in the opera- tion of grinding. The following summer it was discovered, that they had spent their money aud labor for nought, as the material v(ras of no more benefit to their land, than so much sand. But the same science that detected the deception, discovered also a re- medy for these temporary losses and vexatious impositions. A care- ful examination was made of the surrounding country, and not thirty miles from the above locality, an inexhaustible bed (.)f Gyp- sum was in reality discovered, which has proved a greater blessing to that part of the State, than a mine of gold.
