Editors Southern Cultivator: —I wish
to draw the attention of the cotton imtnU plant¬
ers of the South to tho subject interest, of
gration. It is one of great .and
if successful, I think will prove destructive
to the cotton interest. I do not wish my
views to prevail aides unless be they heard, are right. and hope I
wish both to
those who can wield the pen, and who
agree with me will be heard; the other
side has been heard already, and we have
b:en taxed to promote this eause. Tho
State of Georgia is moving for our de¬
struction.
The negro we havo.with us, and we can¬
not get rid of him if we would. They will
not ■* die out, os most of our Northern
friends and many of our people think.—
The neat census will show a large increase.
The only way to make it tolerable for
them to live amongst us, is to give them
employment. With full employment they
will steal less, be more law-abiding, and a
less nuisance in every way. Do we want
more labor, and the for what ? is The chiefly agricul¬
tural interest at South valu¬
able for its production of cotton, tobacco
and rice. Can we make more labor, money by
doubling the quantity of ? than we
can out of what we now have Do num¬
bers inorease tho quantity of labor pro
rata, or will the dividends be greater for
all eoneerned ? Can the first million of
people in Georgia, having the first ehoice
of lands to cultivate and the balance for
pasture, make more or less than the second
million, having the poorest half to culti¬
vate, and no waste land for stook to graze
on ? Is the second million likely to be
more skillful, industrious, law abiding and
enterprising, &c., &c. ? I thiqk history
teaches us and that land, a population, cheaply with a plenty
of room are more gov¬
erned than u dense population—can live
better and can have more labor to spare
for improvements. What country has
built the same amount of Railroads and
Factories as the United States? The
United States having plenty of lands to
one-half cultivate, by selecting the best, can, with
of its laborers, make a plenty of
all the products of the soil, whilst the
other half can build Railroads, and ma¬
chinery of all kinds, and work them. The
Cotton States, with its presont labor, can
build more Railroads, erect more factories,
develop more mines, higher carry point education than and
refinement to a if the
population was inoreased four fold. With
cotton at twenty-five cents por pound, wish you col
have money to do whatever you
Wavoly. in 1848- and *49, with 900,000
to 1,000,000 bales of ootton in Liverpool,
ootton sold in Augusta at from 4$ to 5J
cents. With 350,000 to 400,000 bales at
present in Liverpool, ootton is selling in
Augusta from 25 to 29 cents per pound.
Why do you wish friends to make if thechango?
Our Northern say we do not
produce cotton cheaper, we will close the
trade. I am willing to lose it, if it can
only be would held take by making little cheap cotton. If
they a raoro interest in
preventing the loss of our liberty, instead
of the Iobs of the ootton trade, it would in¬
ure to the benefit cf both sections. Give
us our liberties and constitutional rights,
with our best men to represent us in all
departments, and we can make as much
oottoa as the world wants, at fair prices, if
it be ten millions of bales, without an out¬
side man or a dollar. Good government
would do more to develop this country
than all the men and money in the world.
Ootton planters, it is not to your inter¬
est to sell your laud at a mere nominal
price. How can you invest your money
to any better advantage ? Land must ad¬
vance in priee. In thirty years, without
a single immigrant, Georgia will have a
population and daughters of two millions of the of people—the
sons tion. patient—wait present for the popula¬
Bo natural
inorease, and what may voluntarily come.
Do not spend your money to hasten an
over-populated country. It will come
toon will enough, outlet. and when it aoes come, you
have no Somo are willing to
out their lands up into small lots, and give
every alternate lot to immigrants, think¬
ing it will more than doublo the price of
the balance. What do you care what your
lauds are worth, if you have none to sell
—besides, it would reduce the price of
ootton more than one-half, and the land
yon have left woald not pay per acre one
half of the dividends they do now—reduc¬
ing your profits three-fourths. You have
u plenty of native poor with jraople to sell land
to, if you wish to pari any.
Do those who have no laud, wish com¬
petitors in labor, and in tho land market
~Do .reducing your wages one-half or more ?—
you wish a great increase of money
capital, reducing the rate of interest to the
standard of Europe, causing all property
to rise, iu proportion to the fall of interest.
Your wages are fixed by the surplus of
cotton vou have to export, and the price
it will i>4ftg in Liverpool. Your prosperity
depends upon the scarcity of labor and a
high sate of interest. You have nothing
but your lubqf—*»ou cannot borrow money,
even if it gate down to 2 por cent. The
valuo of your labor being fixed by tho
value of cotton in Liverpool, by where inter¬
est is low, you can, residing where it
is high, acquire proportionally, much more
land in a given time.
To those who have land to sell, or more
than van bo worked, let me say the very
scarcity of labor will make one-halt of
your lands bring in aunualt} more money
thau if all was planted—the other half is
worth 5 per cent, to grow broom sed^c tor
grazing, and will advance more thau five
per cent, annually. For the tqifety ot the
manufacturing interest, especially in cot¬
ton, it is not prudent to push it too last—
not faster than markets cau be fou»u for
the products muiutao ured. Just assure
as the winds rorern the water, to be cun
densed aud fall again above the shoals, the
people herb Wilt possess the money and
energy and skill to put the water io wortc;
and to effect this most speodiiy, we want
a good scarcity prioes. of eottou, aud correspondingly
VV ith cotton at 20 to 26 cents per
dollars pound, we can hi Georgia appropriate ten
towards increasing our manufactur¬
ing interest with more ease than one dol¬
lar, with double the labor, and cotton 8 to
12 cents. Where are the laborers best
fed and clothed ? where labor is scarce.
Where does land pay the best profits?
where labor is scarce } and the reason is,
the products of the farm bring the best
prices, under these circumstances.
I am equally be brought opposed to begging for
money to to the South, to be
invested. If capitalists, come of their own
accord, let them come, but it is m>t to our
interest that they should. You now ovn
the property of Georgia—if y on sell one
half of it, you will own but th e other half.
It is very difficult to transfer real property
from one country to another. The most
you would get, would be the jneans to live,
and dress fine for a few years.
What we want investing, is a system oach of saving,
and properly year. We
could million and of ought dollars, to to save be invested annually in fifteen
ma
ohinery. That would pay future dividends,
to be re-invested. I am for more labor,
too, but I want such as we may never re¬
gret acquiring. Accumulate all sorts of
labor-saving machines; double improve your land
to a capacity fully its present double rates; of im¬
prove your system what
they new are. Learn to do fully fifty per
cent, more work, with the same labor that
is now done, and with more ease ; learn to
apply your labor to greater advantage than
is now done—do all this, and more too
which can be done, and you will find your
products ample, without any inorease of
population. I am for non-action in Geor¬
gia—non-action of our people. Leave the
subject will of immigration who to time, and the
free of those wish to come among
us, and be of us.
We owe our prosperity at this time en¬
tirely having to the scarcity of labor—many ne¬
groes refused to work; others be.
ing employed in repairing torn up rail,
roads, and building new roads. If all the
negroes had gone to work on the farms,
and done full work, it would have taken
twenty years to reach our present situation.
The scarcity of labor is the only blessing
we now enjoy as a result of the war.
The scarcity of labor in the South, gives
us the proceeds of the very' labor some
people wish to transfer here. The profits
of one hand in the cotton field, gires us the
labor of two in Europe. Transfer him
here, and he will compete with the labor
we now have, or he will labor with those
we now have to lessen their profits, and
bring about a state of things, which will
up strikes. You must recollect, a strike
in the cotton or harvest field, is not like
r * n ' Iotton “ill or on a railroad. If
the mill -n stop., what has been done is
lost if the hj»ds not
dirt, what refuse to move any
more has been, remains. Not
so with wheat and cotto^_ a n i* i 08t} un¬
less you oontinue to advance. The guano
must be pumped up into the cotton bolls,
and they must be gathered by uninter¬
rupted labor. ‘
One more point I will mention, and
then leave the subject to be discussed fal.
ly, I hope, by abler pens. The press of
the South has labored earnestly to pet the
cotton planter to make all his supplies at
home, urging it as being the cheapest po.
Now every cotton planter knows
all that the nothing pays as well as cotton, and
presses in the world cannot change
this opinion. Bat if the press will strike
at the root of the evil, they may do incal¬
culable good. I will state what it is ; I
have always practiced it; both the true
interest of the cotton plauter and patriot¬
ism, should make all adopt it. Apply
one»half of all labor and land to the mak¬
ing of full supplies of all kinds that are
needed on the plantation, and enough to
spare, for those engaged in other pursuits.
Do this, and you will get more money
(take ten years together) for the other
half of labor and land engaged in ootton
culture, than if the whole was employed to
produce cotton. If this is true ; immigra¬
tion is certainly not to our interest, and
why should not tho cotton plauters con¬
sult, their interest, as well as other people?
Very respeotfully,
DAVID DICKSON.
Ashen for Wheat.
A correspondent of the Rural Gentle¬
men, writes very strongly in favor of ash¬
es to prevent rust in wheat—supports his
arguments by faots adduced from his own
experience. He has in numerous in
stances found them to possess a marked
value, exerting a three fold power of good.
We extract from the article the following
paragraphs :
1. The ashes operate as a manure upon
the wheat, even in the limited quantity of
bushels per acre.
2. They push the wheat forward sever¬
days, and in time to escape the hot,
days, which often prevail about the
of the “heading out” of the wheat,
3. They strengthen the stem, giving it
substance and solidity.
I may hero add one or two more prop¬
erties to the ashes j they afford just that
kind of pabulum or food which is best Tor
the developm eut aud perfection of the
grain, aud will, in my opiuiou, also pre¬
vent the ravages of the fly iu wheat. I
would here venture the remark, that who¬
ever trios this experiment will thereafter
spread his wood ashes upon his wheat as
above indicated ; and in so doing he will
effectually gard against and prevent the
rust iu hts wheat.

This wonderful vegetable
restorative is the sheet
anchor of the feeble and
debilitated. As a tonic and
cordial for the aged and
languid it has no equal
among stomachics. As a
remedy for the nervous
weakness to which women
are especially subject, it is
superseding every other
stimulant. In all climates,
tropical, temperate or
frigid, it acts as a specific
in every .species of disorder
which undermines the
bodily strength and breaks
down the animal spirits.
Wherever it is intro¬
duced it becomes a stand¬
ard article — a medicinal
staple. It is to-day the
best and purest tonic, and
the most popular medicine
in the civilized world—be
sure and get the genuine.

1 PHITT. M. D„ need no recommendation—
their well know;, power in removing the diseases
peculiar to our Southern climate having already
established for them au enviable reputation in
Georgia aud adjoining States. As the majority
of persons living South are predisposed to dis¬
ease of the Liver, it is gi anted by all inteiligeut
physicians that most of he pains end aches of our
people are due to organic or functional derange
u.enl of that important organ. Prophitt’s Liver
Medicine and anti Billions Pills strike directly at
the root of the evil. They cure the liver, which,
in nine cases out of ten, is at the bottom of
caughs, dyspepsia, colic, sick headache, Rheraa
tiem, consumption, meustrou*l obstructions, &c„
so rheumatism,-neuralgia common among our people. Earache, acute

Dr. Prophitt: Having used this medicine suf¬

own miud that it is an invaluable remedy for
dyspepsia—a disease from which the writer has
suffered much for six years and being pursuad
ed that hundreds uow suffer from this annoying
complaint would be singularly benefi ted, as he
has been, by iU u-e, we deem it a duty we owe
to the unfortunate class to recommend to them
