Liverpool October 24
If is evident that there are 10 bags on the
market for sale to where there is a purchaser
lor oue and as tong as this continues we cannot
improve—-The quantity of real good or prime
Uplands and Orleans is very small aud should
these qualities come forward slowly, present pri
ces may be maintained. If your crop proves
had in quality", it will, with the large stock of
inferior cotton now here, probably reduce or
dinary to 5d. per lb and ultimately the good
t must follow if you send as much in 1828 as
* you have in' 1827. The consumption of cot
ton appears to be about as large as it has been,
and there is no accumulation of stock to speak
of in either yarns or goods, still the former and
some descriptions of the latter arc heavy of
sale. Manufacturers find they can make faster
V ‘than they can sell, wo consequently do not
* ’ .look for any briskness in trade before the now
year. The sales of cotton yesterday and the
day before are estimated at 2000 bags but a
small proportion of it yesterday and of that
more than 200 bags were Sea Island, about
one half of which were taken by a speculator
at 11 1-2 a 12d.
Parliament was ptorouged to the 20th Dec.'
The state of things in Spain, had undergone
a very salutary change. The insurgents were
every where submitting to the King, and tran
quility was restored in the revolted provinces.
Nothing hau occurred, materially chaining
the pi sture of affairs between the allied poweis
and the Turks, since the lust advices.
Interview between the Allied Admirals and
Ibrahim Pacha.—As we were going to press
this morning (says the London New Times of
17th Oct.) wo received tho following import
ant intelligence from Paris.—Admirals Co-
drington and Do Rigny landed at Nav.irin, and
had an interview with Ibrahim Pacha, in which
they informed him that they had oruors to esta
blish an armistice de facto, between the Turks
and the Greeks. Ibrahim declared that he
it id orders on his part to attack Hydra, and it
was hard he should be obliged to suspend their
execution, as his force was evidently too strong
v to bo resisted by tho Groeks; but that, as the
base was not one providod for by the Porte,
he would send couriers to Constantinople and
GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
Egypt, for fresh instructions, and, till their rci-
turn, give his word that his fleet should not quit
. Navai in. These accounts dev not confirm the
report of tho affair with the Tunician frigate.
From the Londcn Neu> times Oct. 20.
The interest excited by the position of the
respective fleets, and the critical situation of
affairs in tho Levant, is increasing and will
continue for some time to deepen, ere any
thing cau arrive to gratify, expectation or to
dispel anxiety. Tho Sultan had not yet been
prevailed upon to say “yes or no.’’ Meanwhile
tho English and French squadrons strictly
block'ded tho multitudinous navies of Barbary
and Egypt in tho port of Navarin, and offered
to tho world tho extraordinary spectacle of 20
rc-sels shutting up and overawing a formida
ble force of raoro than six times their number.
Tho Greeks duing that period, were not inac
tive; tlteir cruisers intercepted tho convoys
which brought provision for Ibrahim’s army,
and they were preparing to land troops at Scio
aud in Cnndin, to endeavor to redeem those
important Isles from tho Turkish yoke. No
intelligence had yot been received by tho Allies
of the arrival of the Russian fleet.
The Earl of Guilford.—Wo are sorry to
announce tho death of this Nobleman, which

A letter from Trieste, in tho Gazette de
France, after alluding to what it calls the enig
matical conduct of Lord Cochrane since his
arrival in Greece, in no favorable terms, states,
that his lordship has now appealed on the
sccuo of action with energy, has made himself
master of Vassiladiand Anatolico, whbre it is
said ho has 'taken 1,200 Turks, and that it is
expected that lio will take possession of Misso-
longhi. The fact was, that Lord Cochrane
could undertake no operations while tho Greek
chiefs were quarrelling amongst themselves.
His lordship, however, did much towards re
conciling those differences which the treaty of
intervention has happily finally extinguished.—

Mr. Baber 'had leave to report instanter, a
bill for the benefit of the citizens of Bibb coun
ty residing on the East side of the Ocmulgee
“Batavia, June 15.
H Island of Java.—'The prospects of tho Dutch
government in Java had not brightened. Few
ofthe oxpocted troops had arrived. The insur<
gents had possessed themselves of the moun
tains and ravines of the Interior, as well as of tho
jungles [morasses covered with thick shrub
bery] where no European troops could pene
trate.”
For ourselves we*watch the fate of Batavia
with deep interest. It would be a dreadful thing
for a splendid city, like Batavia [larger than
New-York,] to fall into the hands of the wild
Javanese and the ferocious Malays, compared
with whom, our wcsterl) Indians are mild and
civilized. Yet such a result has long been fear
ed; and from our own porsonal acquaintance
- with the inhabitants of tho island, both native
and European, wo judge it more than probable,
The Dutch have ruled the natives with a rod
of iron, and the retribution, if it does come,
must be terrible.
If any thing saves Batavia from a general
massacre, in case of conquest, it must bo the
influence ofthe christianized natives in the city
and vicinity.
Had the Dutch government of Netherlands
India seconded, instead of thwarting the designs
of that enlightened philanthropy which would
have civilized tho natives; instead of trembling
for safety, as at this moment, they might have
been exercising a mild sway ovor a contonted
and happy people. Andtheweiilihymerchant,
who, nine years ago, we saw turning up his nose,
in scorn at the missionaries; had he aided their
efforts, might have been saved from his present
ewfal situation; in which he sues tho government
in vain for the privilege of relinquishing his
princely fortune, and escaping with hi* family to
$e see—R, J, Intestigaton

Besides Indigo, there are several vegetable
Dyes, which it is believed, would eminently
contribute tb enhance the value of our exports
aud promotealike the agricultural and the corn-
met cial prosperity of the State.—That most to
be recommended, is tho Madder, which has
many years since been cultivated with success
in Georgia, and is known for its properties in
dying the Turkey Red. It is suited to those
sandy loams so common in our country, whether
light or deep, that are not rotentivo of moisture,
—asks fpr its cultivation, but little pnd light la
bor,—requires, to be sure, three years to bring
the plant to maturity; and thougli expensive at
first when once done, a supply from tho planta
tion will constantly be had for a tong time; and,
according to the best calculations, will yield; the Pino Barren lands; with n
at tho least, a clear profit of 8150 per acre. number of acres, ofthe quality ofih.1,.
The White Poppy is also believed lobe ! ~ J “
well adapted to this climate. It forms a con
siderable branch of tho commerce of Asia: and,
when the fact is stated* that 600,000 lbs. of O
piura are exported from the region of tho Gan
ges alono, annually, there can be no doubt
that the subject is well calculated to arrest the
attention of the agricultural portion of this com
munily. ’ ‘
The next* object to which your Committee
would desire to call the attention of the people
of Georgia, is tho cultivation of natural and ar-
Gcial grasses. The experience of that celebra
ted agriculturist. Col. Taylor, of Carolino, in
Virginia, has established the following facts,—
all important to this State, as they must bo to
the whole southern section of this Union.
REPORT ON AGRICULTURE.
Tho Joint Committee on Agriculture, to
which was referred tho Resolution from the
House of Representatives of the 23d ult, havo
maturely considered the same, and have the
honor to submit the following REPORT—
That irom the continued depression of the
cotton market, whereby the principal staple of
the State is becoming gradually a drug,'it is all
important that the attention of tho people of
Georgia should bo directed to its improvement,
and also to tho rearing -and cultivation of other
articles for export and home consumption,
than those now reared and cultivated; but,
more especially, to an improvod condition of nil
that extensiuo alluvial region, within our bor
ders, ordinarily known as the “Pino Barren”
land, whereon many of its inhabitants are for
ced to glean a miserable subsistence, without
comfort in their present condition, satisfaction
in thu recollection of the manner in which they
have been obliged to rear their offspring, or
hope for better times from either the quantity,
quality or value of the several productions that
their farms are now made to yield.
That when this state was first settled in 1733
by Gen. Oglethorpe, it was an inseparable
condition annexed to every grant that a certain
number of, the .“White Mulberry tree should be
reared upon every allotment made (o the Colo
nists. That, in consequence thereof tho impor
tant nrtido of silk was produced gradually and
in small quantities, until the year 1757, when
1052 lbs. weight of cocoons wore received at
the Filature in Savannah; and, that tho year
1. That the great value of a selection from
tho gramineous family, is illustrated by a com
parison between the productions of a kitche n
garden, and those which are the spontaneous
offering of the wilderness. .
2. That they enable the farmer or planter to
raise meats of all kinds, either for his own use,
or fur the market, of the best quality* in the
cheapest modes; and to increase tho size of all
animals destined to slaughter or labor.
S. That they produco a considerable profit,
by saving labor—because the poorland requires
the most toil to bo exerted on it, at the same
time that it yiolds the least profit.
It may moreover be added, that as our ter
ritory exceeds in proportion, in the Pino Bar
ren lands, tho population scattered over, it,
thoro is the greatet necessity to use all our en
deavors. tp convert this dreary and monotonous
region into something more of an arcadia, than
it is at present—And why should wo not? Wo
have tho very high authority of Mr. Stephen
Elliott, of Charleston, for saying that “tho cul
tivation of tho Bermuda grass on tho puor and
extensive sand hills of our middle country,
would probably convert them into shoeft-walks
of great value”—Also, that “tho crab or crop
grass, already so well known to tho planters
though an annual, is yet tho best grass for hay
at present known in.the low country.” In ad
dition to which, your committoe would respect
fully recommend, that the attention of tho pub
lic should likewise bo turned to the cultivation
of the Lucerne, and of tho Sainfoin; both of
which, hoing well suited to our soil and climate,
are also extremely profitable; tho first of which
delights in rich sand, light but substantial; and
the other possesses the very advantageous qual
ity of succeeding in the very poorest land, and
upon declivities of which it keeps the ground.
Your Committee would likewise very res
pectfully urge upon the attention of the public,
this fact, that the argument in relation to the
culture of the grasses, applies in full forco to
that of the Ruta Biga Turnip, and of the Man
gel Wurtzel, or root of scarcity, ns food for
cattle. If the pursuits of the hordsracn are
any way to bo consulted, they are of opinion,
that these products, already tested in our soil,
and their value appreciated by a portion of tho
people, however small,'should really lead to
some inducement on the part of the Legislature
to encourage tho nurture and the cultivation of
them. ; ~'
Tho Committoe therefore rocommond, that
whenever tho necessary appropriation shall bo
mado for the specific object, that tho Board of
Commissioners for tho Internal Improvement
of this state, assoon as the samo shall be con
stituted, bo empowered to award Premiums for
the following objects:
1. To tho person who shall deliver to the
Board an effectual method of counteracting the
rot in cotton, and of destroying tho insect, com
monly called the catterpiller, both of which aro
occasionally so destructive to tho cotton plant:
and to the person who shall devise the best
raodo of improving the quality and valuo of
ced in Georgia, and Pnrysburg or its neighbor
hood, no less than 7,040 lbs. weight; and in the
year succeeding that, an amount considerably
above 10,000 lbs. was also received at the old
capitol of tltis State. The culture continued
to progress, until it was destroyed by the oc
currence of the American Revolution, and the
introduction of the more profitable, but more
unhealthy articles of Rice and Indigo—But
when we reflect, that the.Mulberry will grow
upon tho most light sandy .soil, and that tho
whole process of making' silk may be carried
on by adult females and children,—surely tho
culture the serious attention, and dcsorvos fos-
tcringaidof the Legislature.
In regard to the Olive, your committee beg
leave to report, that upon the plantation of that
useful and culightcned citizen, Thomas Spal
ding, Esq. of M’lntosh county, thero are al
ready five bearing trees, and about 40 or 50
which promise soon to arrive at maturity.
Tho State is also deeply indebted to Thom
as M'Call, Esq. for his successful experiment
in relation to the making of wine from our na
tive grapes. So far back as 1740, thero.is his
torical evidence, that very good wino could bo
made in Georgia—aud when wo take into view,
the health, the morals, and tho character of our
people, surely this branch of agriculture like
wise merits all tho countenance that their re
presentatives can give it.
Respecting ludigo, and Tobaceo, and Su
gar Cane, it is only necessary to refer to out
ges on bills of exchango drawn on any place own Statute Book, and the experience of ma-
heyond the limits of tho United States returned' ny
now living, te determine their utility and
