FOOTNOTES
[A] It has recently been affirmed that there is a dirty goat in South America which will eat this dirty plant.
[B] Extracts in point might here be given from numerous letters received by the Author, since the publication of the first edition; but it is unnecessary.

[D] 1,765,000 pounds of tobacco passed up the Erie Canal in seven and a half months in 1834.
[E] Says a distinguished correspondent—the most efficient officer of one of our benevolent institutions, "Not long since a clergyman called on me as agent for one of the most popular Societies for spreading the knowledge of Christ crucified throughout the world: his breath was intolerable, and the tobacco juice had formed a current from each corner of his mouth downward. I need not describe to you my feelings at this exhibition."
