- The Kiver low grounds in the vicinity of
Camden arc exceedingly fertile, and a very
extensive capital is employed in agricultural*
pursuits. The valuation of lands and slaves
in fttftfthayr DNfcrfct under the law of thc/XJ.j
laying a direct tax, amounts to 2*930/294!
dollars, "and this sum is probably far within;
their pre**!* value ; the tax on this property^
