THE SUGAR CANE
beginning to bo extensively cultivated in
of the lower counties, and is found to be
r»iib!e. Its cultivation is getting the pre-
, n co of Cotton on many plantations. A
ileman from the low country, well acquaint
ed! the subject, informs us, that more mo-
might be made in making Sugar at ten dol-
a hundred, and rum at one dollar a gallon,
licli they readily bring,) than in making
tton at 25 cents a pound; and the same soil
suits Corn and Cotton is proper for the
r Cane. In Pulaski County it has been
fitably cultivated, and we have no doubt it
uld succeed as high up, or higher, than Ma-
At any rate, the present low price of
tton would warrant an experiment. Wo
told that Mr, Holmes,' in the upper part of
county, has a small patch of the Cane
wing, which promises well; from 20 to 24
its to a stalk having ripened. If it should
ceed in this way, the culture of Cotton
uld shortly go out of fashion. ' The usual
.duct is from 10 to 15 cwt of Sugar to the
and the culture of the Cane is far less
tensive than that of Cotton; generally less
or being required than in raising corn.
Tlie following is the manner of cultivation
sued in Telfair county : A furrow is made,
in planting Corn, in which a stalk of the
ne, of the previous year’s growth, is laid,
covered with earth; sprouts proceed from
joints, and produce staiks again; once or
ce during the summer, the ground is plough-
,md hoed, the same as • in corn crops. The
Iks commence ripening from the bottom,
will grow till frost, previous to which it is
and stacked like fodder tops, when it will
p through the winter, and is ground up at
sure. The juice is boiled down as fast as
iressed, or it goes into fermentation nnd
tils. A light frost is thought to assist the
iccss of making Sugar, but a heavy frost
i warm weather immediately after, spoils
sap by turning it sour. In boiling down,
mall quantity of Lime is used, say a spoon-
o GO gallons of juico, to assist in purifying
i paining. Twelve pounds of sap make a-
i one of Sugar.
The Sugar Cane does not come to that ma-
ity in ill's State as to bear seed, as in tropi-
cLmatcs; but it possesses this advantage,
it the root lives for several years, and bears
end crops. The blades and tops of the
me make good fodder.
INTERNAL IMPROVEMENT.
Considerable excitement exists among the
aile, against the manner in which the Board
Public Works, and particularly the Civil
ginuer, have been employed during the past
<r; and it is thought probable, that the
rd will be dissolved, and the Engineer dis-
vged by the present Legislature. We hope
never, that patriotic body will not be proci-
ate in this matter, nor be governed in their
isions by party or local views. Though we
not ourselves see the benefits that were
pcctcd to result from this appointment, nor
prove Of the manner iu which it has been
ployed, yet wo think -it possible for the
ate to derive benefit from an institution of
kind, and we aro anxious to see a com-
nceinent of Internal Improvement made.—
0 W| sh to see the tiling tried, beforo it is
mdoned; and we think Georgia presents a
field for the experiment. If Rail Roads
1 Canals would Hot be profitable or expedi-
among the mountains and through the wil-
rness, lot us have them nearer the seaboard,
ween our large towns, or through the fertile
<1 settled parts of the State, where- they
;ht he of some benefit to the community,
d where their utility could be appreciated.—
all events wc hopo the State will perso-
e in the object until something is done to
t credit, and not bo disheartened bocauso
cry thing cannot be done at once. Let us
gin ono thing at a time; and bf/pn some-
°g that would bo both practicable and use-
And if it is found that the resources of
State will not admit of our making Rail
°»ds, w e can at any rate mako Turnpikes;
l if we cannot dig Canals, wo can dig out
r Harbors, and Rivers, and so make a he
wing townrds improving the commerce and
creourso of the Stnto.
Whilo on this subject, wc cannot help re
lating again the necessity of doing something
d>o improvement of tho navigation of tlto
ikmulgco ; the expediency of which cannot
doubted. Why then should wo delay the
•umoncemcnt of a work that should long ngo
'* k*®! 1 completed 1 Our river is capable of
?,n " navigablo for steamboats nt all
,lS0ns °f tho year to Macon, and for pole-
“ al * Mll ’ gh U P M lh o Cedar Shoals. And
ir Legislature, in delaying the business, nre
Jt la y in S n? provision for the reproaches of
ostcrity.
The Georgia Legislature commenced its an
nual session yesterday, agreeably to tho Con
stitution of the state. We had heard nothing
from either branch, when our paper went to
flress, consequently aro unable to say in what
manner they are organised. Considerable anx
iety is felt to know who are the the presiding
officers of the respective houses. A large pro
portion being new members, new feelings and
new views may be expected to be introduced—
and, as often happens in such cases, the entire
face of things may be changed from what it was
last year. We shall not be surprised, there
fore, to see both branches of the present Legis
lature, presided over by other individuals, and
governed by other views than the last.
Business is beginning to assume a lively as
pect in our streets; “ Goods, wares and mer
chandise” are daily arriving from Savannah,
New York and elsewhere j and Cotton comes
in, in considerable quantities from tho country,
—altogether making trade tolerably brisk.—
We hope the briskness will continue, and that
the number of new stores opened, and addi
tional purchasers in the market, will create a
stir, and raise the price of our staple a degree
or two above zero, and keep it at least, at a
comfortable temperature on tho mercantile
thermometer. Present price of cotton in Macon,
seven to eight cents.
There is still a scarcity of Buildings in
this place, notwithstanding the great number
that have gono up during the past summer.—
Dwelling houses, stores, shops, &c. of almost
every description, rent readily, and at high
rates. Although there seems to be no lack of
mechanics in the place, it would appear they
cannot build fast enough to meet the necessi
ties of our rapidly growing population.
Tho weather continues unusually warm for
the season. Excepting one or two slight frosts
about two weeks since, the temporature rS
the atmosphere has indicated Summer rather
tlian Fall. This untimely warmth wo fear, will
protract tho fall fevers, which have been so
prevalent in some parts of the state, to a late
period.

of the lower descriptions, at our quotations. Itis ubw
ascertained that the present crop of this dcscristioil of
Cotton, will be a very abundant one. There (asbjen
a good demand for Uplands, during the week but [be
supply at market is yet too limited to exhibit tranfac-
tionson a large scale. We repeat our last quotation—
8 1-2 to 10 1-2 cents—the principal sales are froii 9 to
10—very prime lots, for the French market, in sotne
instances go as high as 10 3-4 and 11 cenb.

COMMERCE OF SAVANNAH.
From a statement by the Harbour Master of Savan
nah, it appears that 150 ships, 91 brigs, 159 schooners.
116 sloops, and 64 steamboats, have arrived at that
port from places beyond the state, during the year end
ing 1st October. 1 5 ships, 8 brigs, 5 schooners, and 4
sloops, were foreign. It appears that for the year end
also, 11,455 tierces of Rice, and 170 hogsheads of To
bacco. The xvhole valued at the present depressed
prices, will amount to six million eight hundred thous
and dollars. To this may be added Lumber and other
valuable articles exported, that would greatly increase
the amount of the year’s exports. Contrasting the ex
ports of the year 1825 and 1826, the difference iu favor
of the latter year Is 52,833 bales of Cotton, 4220 tier
ces Rice, and 156 hogsheads of Tobacco.
COMMERCE OF PETERSBURG, Va.
During the year ending on the 30th Septem
ber last, the town of Petersburg, Va. exported
35,646 bales of cotton, valued at $1,300,000.
21,200 boles wero sent to foreign ports and
14,446 coastwise. Di.Ttng too same period
there wore exported 7688 hogsheads of To
bacco, 1613 hogsheads of Tobacco Stems and
159,118 M. Staves.
Mr. William Lo Barron has undertaken to build the
Aqueduct for the Pennsylvania Canal, over the

Providence Industry.—In the neighborhood ofProvi-
dence there aro about one hundred andfifty manufacto
ries, which consume 30,000 bales of cotton a year.—
Thcso establishment! give employment to 25 or 30
thousand people. From the simple statement of these
facts, wc can easily conceive the trade and industry
which they must bring to Providence. The eanalnpw
in a state of forwardness from the Interior of Massachu
setts to that city wiil form on additional stimulus to
their commerce and manufactories. In the'course of
a few years this scene of usefulnes has been created.—

“Liverpool, September 18.
“The import of Colton in the last week was vc
extensive, being nearly 26,000 bags, of which 14,0!
were from New Orleans. The sales were 12,600, df
which 4000 wero Upland, at 6d to 7d with a few smojl

the holders endeavored to establish an advance/of
1-Sd per lb.; but the great weight of the supply has
checked the briskness of the demand, and the buyers
are expecting to purchase on rather lower tents.—
There is, however, not much Cotton pressed ipon
the market, and the sales to-day, including 20C) E-
gyptian, are 3500 bags. There is no good rice were
—the. quotations arc 16ito22j per cwt.”
“September 19.—The Cotton market continuds ex
tremely steady, and the sales of yesterday amoi nted
to 4000 bales, of which 2000 were Egyptian.”
NATCHEZ, Sept. 29.—Cotton Market—Then, is
but little demand (or cotton lit Notches at pret sit—
some of the new crop has been offered for salc,bi tnot
more than 10 cents can be bad for it.
Rot in the Cotton.—This is likely to prove a ver ’ un
fortunate year to the state, because whatever cir mm'
stances tend to lessen the quantity of cotton, oi the
ice of it, will prove a serious evil to the comnti
general. For many years pastthe rot has greatly in
jured the cotton growers, but nothing in cotnpaiW
to what it will this year. From every county in jthc
state, we lehrn that this disease is destroying the cot
ton by acres; since tho heavy nnd continued ft 1 of
rain, which has been general in the best plantin dis
tricts, it greatly increases. In the country op[ spite
Natchez, the rot is worse than ever it was know be
fore ; and in Louisiania it is said to be progressing.

Lead Mine*.—The Missouri Repulican says, tho U.
Slates' Lead mines are now becoming a source of con
siderable revenue. The number of diggers and smelt
ers, at the upper mines, have generally increased, and
are still increasing, and the quantity of lead made this
year will exceed in a fourfold ratio.tbatof former years.
The same paper states, that the only impediment to the
profitable working of these.mines is occasioned by the
Rapids in the Mississippi, hear the months of the Des
Monies nnd Rock Rivers, in both of which it is practi
cable to clear out a boat channel, at the expense of not
more than two years’ rent of the Upper Mines.
