The study focuses on the fitful— and often futile—efforts of the French, the English, the Spanish, and the Americans to establish plantation agriculture in Natchez and its environs, a district that emerged as the heart of the “Cotton Kingdom” in the decades following the American Revolution.

Schlereth Contributing Editor Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/jah/article/86/1/167/722954 by guest on 27 September 2021 "1811-Year of Wonders in the Mississippi Territory." Old Capitol Museum, Mis­ sissippi Department of Archives and History, 100 S. State St., Jackson, MS 39205. Temporary exhibition, May 14, 1998-Nov. 16, 1998. Donna Dye, director; Cavett Taff, curator; John Gardner and Tara Bond, assistant curators; Mary Lohrenz, collection curator; Nicole Maris, registrar. The United States Congress created the Mississippi Territory in 1798. Instead of cel­ ebrating Mississippi's bicentennial with an exhibition that spanned its nineteen-year history prior to statehood, the staff of the Old Capitol Museum in Jackson, Missis­ sippi, chose to highlight one year. Sometimes referred to as the annus mirabilis in the American West, 1811 was marked by the Great Comet, the New Madrid earthquake, and the maiden voyage of the first steamboat on the Mississippi River. The curators decided that a focus on this particular slice of time would be a cleverway to make pa­ trons think about the significance of the Mississippi Territory. A massive impressionistic painting of the momentarily ruptured Mississippi River with a primitive steamboat tossed upon its bank in the foreground, a shattered log cabin in the background, and a symbolic comet in the sky called attention to the ex­ hibit opposite the main entrance to the Old Capitol. Above it hung the title banner: 1811-Year of Wonders in the Mississippi Territory. The Great Comet of 1811, the brightest comet to cross the sky in centuries, shone at its most luminous in October.

The first lists the official names of states, the state capitols with zip codes and the telephone numbers of state central switchboards. The second table presents historical data on all the states, commonwealths and territories. The third presents a compilation of selected state statistics from the state pages. *The Northern Mariana Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Marshall Islands and the Republic of Belau (formerly Palau) have been administered by the United Slates since July 18, 1947, as part of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands (TTPl), a trusteeship of the United Nations.
