Je répéterai encore ce que jai deja dit plussieurs fois, que la Louisiane est sans contredit le plus beau pays de l'univers par la douceur de son climat et son heureuse situation.
Lion y peut cultiver avec succès toutes les plantes de l'Europe, sans dis-tinction, et presque toutes celles de l'Amèrique.
