' CHAP. II. PLANTATIONS IN order to afford some facility to the reader in perusing what I may write, I shall divide what I have to say into several distinct heads; and, first, as to the present jjiltolrcs of planting. Much may, and prohably ought, to be said, on the errors of bad planters : it is indeed a pro- lific, as well as an important subject; and if there were any solid ground on which to rest a hope that an exposure of all the mistakes which are made in planting, would lead to the aband...onment of such plans and practices as would be shown to be wrong, it would be a duty worthy the exercise of talents of the highest order. It does not, how- H 54 PLANTATIONS. ever, absolutely require the aid of brilliant talent, or fervid eloquence, to place these matters in their proper light before those who are most concerned ; a plain reference to facts will be quite sufficient for that purpose. The case of an Ancient Wood in an unthrifty and unprofitable condition, does not stand out so prominently it is not so glaringly discreditable to its owner, as is a Plantation in the same state, which has been made by himself ; for as to the former, the fact that "i always was so, " is, to a certain extent, an excuse for bad management ; and in truth, it will generally be found a very dif- ficult affair, as I have hinted before, to establish a new system where the prejudice of ages, in favour of an old one, will meet the person who may attempt it, at every turn ; but it is not so as to Plantations ; when, therefore, a gentleman decides to plant, and has himself to do with the work from the beginning, both his interest, and his duty, point out the necessity of his seeing that it be well done ; but the very reverse of this, is the average of the general practice, as I shall presently show.
