UpiUj IBHO, there had been expended in the sever, nl Spi;. ‘tr unit Territories two hundred and eighteen millions of public money, in lurtilica. rtioti?, light, houses, publ c debt, pensions, and tnlernal nnprovci.'.enis, ot which sum, one ; hundred and nrne*ty-live millions were disbur- ■ ned in the Northern and North,western Slates; and twenty-three miliums in tbe> Southern end South-western. Tho national debt con stitutes by far the largest item in tins account, mid it was hut equitivde that, litis should bo 1 paid to the lenders in the proportions ot their 1 loans. Hut in the matter nl miernul improve ments, the Southern division should have re ceived a ninth more than the Northern. J'he disbursements uniter this head were —north ot the Potomac, in round numbers, (our millions seven hundred tho jsiind; soulli nl the I’oto- , mac, two lumdred and sixty-seven thousand; or nearly 18 to I.' Pensioii.s 17 to li; J.iglil houees (consider our coast) 11 to I; Fortifica tions equal—but never unequal afterwards, nod never to lie equal again. The expendis lures on the Cumberland road alone, were, about mm; times the amount expended lor internal improvements in all the Southern and Southwestern Slides together; and with, out lint', tho proportion North and South, was us 8 to 1. tint, tins gives us n very inadequate idea of the extent ol'tho disbursements in the several Slates. It touches not llte first cost, and Iho annual expenses ot the national establish ments, most ol winch are at the North; nor the pay of the officers, principal and stiboiilin nlc, m the several departments ol’iln; govern ment, most of whom are citizens ol the North; nor the ten thousand other items of expense, which goto make up tire grand total of fjjtl,- 0()0.(K)(l,()(). Whoever will take the trouble | to follow these expenditures through all their details for a year or two, will come to the I conclusion, that ol the whole sums disbursed I among the States, little short of eight lentils | have gone north of the Potomac, or tociti ■y.ens domiciled north ol the I’oluniac. About j seven hundred thousand dollars oft.be onobil- , ■lion disbursed, were raised from the customs j —that is to say, from duties on foreign mi- i poriiitions, two thirds of which were receive | m exchange lor Southern productions. The .Southern Stales then have virtually put into (he treasury, four hundred and sixty-six mil- j liornfoftho seven hundred, and drawn out o.ic hundred and forty.

Tor about lilteen years, J except during the frenzied excitement of 18*J5 | it kept unremittingly on the decline; in so , much, that, for six years preceding 18.‘!2, it did I ■not average quite ten cents per pound, at the ' places of shipment. It has ever since, in i spile of the disasters of tins and the last year, t and of Iho increased production, averaged < about thirteen cents u hundred miles m the interior of every cotton growing Slate. That the Restrictive (System, as it has been aptly termed, was the cause ot its decline, no one, it m presumed, will now dispute.

Rut by ' that measure, our losses amount to not less 1 than fitly millions, In the short space ol six I years. The Restrictive System was not more op- I pressive to us than propitious to our Northern i brethren. It was the touch of JMidac to their ' ■properly, and the übluiliou of Midas to their i streams.—Through till its operations, it ea- I nchod them—in all its consequences it profiled 1 ■them. With ils utluir effects, it gave them j i (lie command of Southern trade; mid thus in t ren-od our dependence tqion them, and mill- | '• tiphed our debts to them.

We g know them to have been worth a hundred U millions, and hut a hundred millions, more— it a tact worthy of a passing notice; for as the n iluties were very lo.v up to the year 181(5, it e proves thatsmeu inat lime, tho Government tl must have absorbed hale short of half the va- K hie o, all the goods brought into the country, p •Whdeih- above was in ih« pr .■-■«, the appropri- tl "* !* " I 'he IflM I oiigrwK Hi Inirrtial Improve- ~ moils app.-.ucl.

Not that they arc the ininiedia'e cause; but that they have so Car weakened us, and made ns so completely dependent upon the peo.ule ot the North fur every tiling, that the least shock to 1 commerce, prostrates us, and the least pres sure upon thorn, is turned upon us with redou bled force. We have seen why it is that the one people lias risen like the rocket, and the other has fallen like its stick. Wo have seen, I hat their positions must have been reversed, if the Southern people had mu nlnined their foreign trade. The opportunity is now offer or! to thorn lo resume it, and to reap the rich : rcwa'ihj from it, that they have hitherto trans ferred lo other hands. Follow citizens, will 1 you not resume it! livery thing now oncou. i rages you to do so. American commerce is almost released from its fellers; and your re source will enable you to control it. You | are not wanting in means, in skill, in ports or I waters, to accomplish the great enterprise. The legislatures of your respective States have made easy the way, and sale the attempt, lo accomplish it. They have authorised you to form associations for this purpose, in which you may invest what you please, without ha zard of more than you invest. Your interests, social, pecuniary and political, are deeply in volved in if. A single, hold, united, manly elfort, on your part, anil the thing is alone. | livery citizen must, lake an interest in it— I overy citizen, a part ill it. And while we are directing our united exer : lions lo the great object, let us not forget the I auxiliary duties which devolve upon us as indi- I viJuals. J,«l us reform our habits of extravagance, j l.et us become an industrious, economical, and a domestic people; ami wtmt we practice our- j selves, let us teach our children. J.el us make | more ol them merchants—scientific, reputable, practical merchants. J.ot our planters reform 1 their agricultural systems. J.et them resolve lo 1 | buy untiling that their farms can produce, and lo j sell bread stuffs under every season. Uy Ibis ) policy, they will not gain more in independence I Ilian in wealth; for their rollon crops reduced one | fourth, would command a higher price than they now do. Nature has practically demonstrated lliis truth lo our planters, again and again; but they will not prollt by her lessons. Never does she shorten their craps, that llu-y are not more than compenoulcd iu the price; and yet they ennnol be persuaded to shorten them themselves. In 1825, a rumor was spread, nod generally believed, (but the cotton crop on baud, would not supply ibo oomai.d by some filly or a’li und red ’iVo.wviik.WvV u.

For the want of it. us we have seen, llu-y loose in the price ol all that they ra se, and all that llu-y consume. Hut it has been said we cannot curry on a Imdc with foreign nations, because we have not the requisite capital. That is to ray, the people of the Southern States, wilh the most ample resour ces, that auy people of equal number ever pos sessed, cannot do I hut which all nations have done, from the .Phoenicians to the Texians.— Have we less capital now than wo hud in 17(i’J! Did the capital which made Virginia ami South j Carolina larger importers than all the Northern Elates combined, desert them immediately upon the adoption of the Federal Constitution, and Hoe to the Northern Hiatus! Hut what is the capital that sustains ihc foreign commerce of the United Mlnics at t*-is lime 1 ? Cash'! Hank notes! Why all the specie and bank notes in circulation three years ago, between the Hi Lawrence mid tin- Habiue, would not have purchased the exports ol IHdii; mid alt the specie iu Kuropo e.mi the United Htalcs, would not purchase llie exports lor six years to come, at dial year’s prices. A tact that seems to have been overlooked, when the cotton mid specie traffic was so strongly re commended to us, ill by gone days. And yet the exports of tbut ycai worn bought and sold. How was the operation effected 1 We will take a Southern staple, tor the sake of illustra tion, and a small part tu represent the whole ■crop, and exhibit the process. Tbo Northern importorfotincd commercial connexions at the South and Liverpool. He ordcied the South ern House to lay in for him a thousand bales ot'cotton, and to draw on .him for the price. The draft was drawn, ami sold for Southern hunk notes, to some one who wanted Northern Hinds. Tne notes paid the planter for the col ton, who bought Ins supplies with them, from the merchant, who relumed them to the bank, where they remained ready to purchase ns much mine cotton. The cotton went on to the Northern merchant, who shipped it to Liv erpool, ami upon the credit of it, drew a bill "poll the Liverpool House, which ho sold tor Northern bank notes, and with them pa d the •Southern draft. The Liverpool merchant turned the cotton into goods, and shipped them to ins correspondent at the North, drew a bill upon him, which he sold, and from the proceeds, paid Ins acceptance. Or, ho sold llie cotton lor cash, find hia acceptance, and proemod the goods upon a credit, lor the beiii elii ol lus American mend, who renewed the operation before the term of credit expired.— There are variations iu the process, winch we have not lime lo notice. Sometimes it is con- i ducted throughout, by agents ot foreign Hous> cs established in tins country. Tins we be- | •eve is now the usual mode; and other inodes i ire adopted, according lo circumstances : but ( n ibis nay, nr some other substantially the M mine, have all the productions of die country, 1 vlncli have gone to foreign markets, been ! •ought anti sold. No money has come South i 1 ;oue North, or crossed the Atlantic. The 1 .radio has been conducted entirely upon oral- 1 I. Wo have only, therefore to clothe our 1 net chants with the same credit that the North 1 mi importer has, lo enable them lo perform he sima’oflico. How is tins to be done?— Simply by giving them the control of as much " nopiriy us the Northern importer possessive 1 l mailers not what kind ot property you tT ivr 1 hem, provided it equals Ins in value. His ! irnporiy is Inscapnal; n consists of homes. , ■ tups and stocks of different kinds, 110 ni v •i baric is these lor goods ; but the foreign j, aeichanl kuo.vmg that he i in. than, .uid be j |! I'ipr anxious to dispose ff Ins mvi#nff.rr.imidi£'' very readily credits him upon the f>rrngth o( 1 11 <- resources. List who fiippoanu, that thin kind of fraj.i.itol is essential lo foreign trade 1— Ifthe plunlera ofltie South would place ten hales on I lit* hundred of their next year’s col ' ton crop, in the hands of irerchanls in the s;x I principal rcaports, the rnerchan’s in each city ' would have a capital of more I.tan halt a mil.. | lion ; quite as good in all respects, aa any mer chant in the Union possesses, of so great n value. Nay, far bailer; lor their capital would ' enter into their trade—would po to Europe i possessing all the properties of coin lor com | mercial purposes—would itself establish the I owners’ credit there—or rather, set all credit at defiance, and convert their traffic into a ! cash business. Does the world produce such 1 a capital for foreign commerce] Indeed, al most all the capital ol the country, has to bo resolved into this, before it is ol any value to , trade upon abroad. The next heat capital to cotton, in money; and ! i his is at the command of the Southern people, ! in any quantity, that the most active commerce may require. When, therefore, we ate taunted by Northern paragraph! U with, *‘ plantations 1 and negroes will not be easily bartered lor mer j chandiso in Europe,” wc cxcurc tlie insult, in | charity to the ignorance it betray.-; and in lurlher ; indulgence, wc reply, “quite an easy as Wall-st. buildings, and Wall street stocks. The dilference between the two kinds of properly is, that the | one produces that which will buy goods in liilj \ rope, and the other does not.” Wc most earnestly invite the attention of the Southern people to this great interest. We beg I them to promote it, by availing themselves of (lie privileges which the legislatures ol their respec tive Slates have offered them. Wc feel well as sured that all wlio make investments in the im porting business, will reap large profits Irom it. Managed with common prudence, it must be profitable. Two gentlemen of Savannah, long practised in mercantile business, and of large resources, proposed forming a copartnership in the importing trade, if they could meet with pro per encouragement upon these terms: That the country merchant who might join the association should he supplied with their goods at cost and charges; and the linn would look m sales to dis interested individuals for its profits. Under such an arrangement the country merchants would only have to band in ihcir orders, receive their supplies in a month or two, direct from the lac tones, and at the lowest rales, and at the same lime, ho drawing a handsome interest upon the capital invested. What country merchant would refuse to become a partner in sucli an establish ment'! i’ut we take higher ground than mere pecuniary interest; We address ourselves to the patriotism ol the Southern people, to their pride 1 of character, to their regard for the rising race, to ! their love of independence —and Ity all those considerations, wc solicit them, to put. at hazard I something, for the recovery of our his 1 . commerce. Wc believe that a gratuitous contribution to this j object, of ten per cent,, from a year’s income of I every citizen of the South, would in the end lie |to ail, the best investment they ever made. We 1 urge upon the citizens of the Southern and South western Slates, to send representatives to the t Convention to bo held in Augusta in October next, to devise means of accomplishing our all important object. The advantages of the former meetings have already been most signally felt.— They have aroused a spirit of inquiry into this matter, which profoundly instructs, while it greatly amazes us. They have produced con cert of action, and harmony of feeling in the Southern Slates, lly one impulse, they have moved all the legislative bodies of the South to our assistance—They have, awakened active ex ertions injihe people of the several States, to give their States the lend in the great enterprise —So much have they done; and more will they doubtless do, as their numbers increase. We promise ourselves from thorn, united counsel and of internal improvements. From all our sen jidris are railways extending in every direction, over the broad area of our fertile country —admirable precursors ol our admirable design. Future Conventions will consider how these tony bo converted into bonds of onion—how they may ho combined and extended for the common good. How strongly do they recommend to the people of the South unusual and unti ring cxertions'lo reclaim their lost commerce ! In eight and forty hours, they will lay the plan ters produce upon the shores of the Atlantic—in as many hours more, they will lay the proceeds of it at the foot of mountains. Availing our selves ol our own ports, of our own ships, and of the agency which makes out roads r,o useful, we may in twenty days place our staples in Europe ; and in as many more, icceivo the avails of them at our own doors. Why, with these advantages before us, should we send our produce a coast wise voyage of a thousand miles; and then travel ns tar ourselves, to gather a small part of its re. turns '! Since our attention has been directed to this subject, nothing amazes us more, than that it should have been reserved lor the year ItSdti, and lor a gentleman in a small town two hundred miles in lire interior of Georgia, to arouse the people of the South, lo a sense of the losses which they were sustaining, and the advantages they were losing, by (heir neglect of a direct trade with foreign nations. If wo improve the hint which that gentleman has dropped, as we should, i.e will have conferred a favor upon the Southern Slates, which they can never ovcr-upprecialo, or duly reward. Ths Committee deem it unnecessary and in expedient to enlarge upon the probable benefits that would result from the accomplishment of our purpose. They may he inferred from the retros pect which we have taken. U the render require better evidence limn this, let him look lo the Stale, that has improved the | advantages, which wc have neglected, in I S3G j “New York imported six limes the amount of I her exports, while the Southern and Southwest., i ern Slates imported little more than one-lourth ol theirs." Which is in the most prosperous condition! Could we divide between our South ern seaports, hut a fourth ol the commerce, of the chief city of the Empire Slate, it would dif f fuse new lilc and activity through all the Slates in which those seaports are located. The Com mince on Ways and Means before quoted, says “the Collector of the City of New York received in 1830 at the Custom Houses, Fivk Millions in 13in.la us.” We know, that in 1833, the olli. eers in pay of the Government, who were cm ployed in those “Custom houses,’’were consider ably the rise of three hundred, independent of •heir private as.-islants. In 1830, they probably all together amounted to live or six hundred. A village population of Collectors, wuh a million per annum in their pockets, reserved mainly from ihe proceeds of Southern industry! Who ran contemplate a ciiy enjoying such a commerce, without the livelies admiration! To what an j interesting train of reflections does it give rise! j VVhat throngs of merchants are gathered there, lo hear her stores through all die length and breadth of the great republic.' How vast the | multitude of laborers, derived and easy subsis- j •price, from bearing lit? merchandise from ship i to store, and Irom sloie lo ship again!
