Report of the Committee Upon Forestry (Classic Reprint)

Report was presented in January, 1879, and transmitted to Con gress by the President early in February of that year. From various causes, wholly foreign to the subject, but chie?y from the occupation of the members of the Committee upon Agriculture (to which it was referred), in other business more urgent, no session was held by the Committee, at which a hearing could be obtained, from the time when this Report was laid before them till the end of the session. In fact, the Committee met but once for business during this time, and then it was wholly occupied upon another subject. The Report was therefore withdrawn at the last moment of the session, and returned to the Department.

Early in' 1880, a Resolution was introduced in Congress, calling for a return of the Report above mentioned, and it was again transmitted by the President, and at once ordered to be printed.
