As an Appendix to this little Tract, I think it proper to fubmit a few more remarks on the National Importance of discovering materials which can be converted into Paper, and grow sufficiently abundant in Great Britain, without the necessity of importing them from foreign countries.

The following lines are printed upon Paper made from Wood alone, the produce of this country, without any intermixture of rags, waste paper, bark, straw, or any other vegetable substance, from which Paper might be, or has hitherto been manufactured; and of this the most ample testimony can be given, if necessary.

Having thus far succeeded in my researches, to make an useful Paper from one kind of Wood, I doubt not, but, that I shall find many others equally eligible for the same purpose, of which I truft it will be in my power, within a few weeks, to give indisputable proof that my expectations have been well founded, and that I have not cherished a visionary opinion.

History furnishes us with numerous examples of one discovery giving birth to others, and, if my success of having encreased the quantity of Paper materials, by rendering these applicable to that which have never been before applied to such a purpose, should incite active and industrious artists, to make farther improvements in their various manufactures, my feelings will be amply gratified.
