Mr. Editor.—1 have noticed with grout pleasure the new specie!* of cotton which will ho such ft profitable acquisition to the agricultural portion of . cn . -iiuiai-ph fin* our romnnnitv.—Rising to the height of six or |P*Oi^a^*e™raerofBavairfBull*tr«ett.ovcr fi.pt, mid yielding* staple much filler and Mr. J. I), flandry s tft.ire, in greater ubmidnWtlum the Vetit-flnlf, I think the tituo is not fur distunt when it will ho preferred bv cotton planters to every other kind. It is Well known to every man who lifts any thing to do with the culture of cotton, that in picking out the petit- gulf, ii great deni offline is lost by the hands on ac count of tho distance between the hells—this diffi culty is remedied l»v the new species of cotton— and it imnv firm belief that a negro can pick out five pounds of the Alvarado cotton in the time that ho could pick out four of the Vetit-iJnlf. This may be considered l»v some as a rash assertion, but l am warranted to believe it from the experience which Ihavejiadin picking cotton. It has another ad vantage which the Petit-gulf does not possess, viz: it c .11 be planted very near together—so near ns just to leave room for* working and picking it out. These advantages must lie obvious to any one who considers fora moment the nature of cotton and tpe care and attention which tiro necessary in the cultivation i f.t. The thin! and greatest ad- vantige is that it ripens earlier than the Petit-gulf. Indepeutleut of the considerations al»ovc mention ed. this alone ought to ronqiicjid it to every cotton grower, who does not wish to see hi* crop cut short by the untimely frosts. I will close my re marks with some advice to cotton planters, which is briefly this. Never be opposed to any tiling be cause it is new and interferes with old customs. Do not console yourself with the reflection that “daddy” got rich planting Petit-gulf, and I will fol low “daddy V* trucks—but supply yourself with seed ns soon as-possible, and 1 think you will nev er regret the day when you planted the Alvarado Cotton.- COTTON PLANTER. unite* policy'll) h ».l pursue 1. 11 w- deposits of the government and the r note • a I *g il tender except from her SAVANNAH! • tuesuAy evening, November s, im.

MONEY MATTERS, Philadelphia.—The North American of the A Norcl Face.—The St. Louis Bulletin gives the following account of a mute race which cauie ofl’ on Uie St. Louis course, on one of the regu lar days of the late races: Immediately idler Uie match race, nt the tap of the drum, two mules came forward to try it, two miles and repeat. Vide Pouche and Palmyra were Uie names of tho two racers. Palmyra was greatly the favorite, and his friends freely offered two to one. He won the first heat with great ease, and was evidently but little fatigued. Time, 0 7. The odds were then still more in his favor, mid cries were heard of. three to one on Palmyra. At the tap of the drum away they went, Palmyra ahead. He went at a killing puce for the first mile und a half, Imt alas for his reputation the #tilks came over him, and he made a quhIi for the fence ity Uie vuiu hope of rubbing his rider off. It was no go, and Palmyra took the studs in earnest. His rider whipped and »purred whilst he backed, and in Uie mean time little Vide Pouche kept steadily at it, and went ahead, coming-out nearly 200 yards ahead. Time, Gm. (is. As Uie bents were broken, (there being no dis tance,) the gallant umles rested Imt a few minutes mid were saddled for another start. Vide Pouche was now the decided favorite, and bets were offer ed freely in his favor. Some of his townsmen offered to bet six bit-* to three. At thc tap of tho drum away they went for tiie third beat, Palmyra ahead. They both went ut a killing pace, and Vide Pouche* tried to pass on the first stretch, but it was no go. Palmyra went ahead us before in tine style for the first mile and a half, but he nguin took into his head to rub Uie rider off against the fence; and whilst he was engaged in this sido work, Vide Pouche let himself out, nnd got too fur ahead to be overtaken, lio came out fur be fore inuid the shouts of his friends, shewing the spectators thafUiere was better blood in Vide Pouche tliaii people thought for. The third heat was run in the extruordiuary short Uwe of 7 min utes and 51 secouds. General Jackson's Opinion.—In his message of 1836, President' Jackson Uius spoke of tiie plan of locking Uie public moneys up in Sub-Treasu ries: “To retain it in the Treasury (said he) unem ployed in any way is impracticable. It is consid ered again*t the genius of mir free institution* to lo?k up in vaults the treasure of the nation. To take from dispeople the right of bearing arms, und put their weapons of defence in the hands of u standing army, would be scarcely more danger ous to their liberties than to permit their Govern ment to accumulate amounts beyond the supplies necessary to its legitimate wants. Such a treasure would doubtless be employed ut some time, as it has been in other countries, when opportunity tempted ambition.” Here bra direct, unequivocal, open blow nt the project of a Hub-Treasury, and the same person who penned die above for h*uu cun, at this day, and in his name, write a paragraph eulogizing the Sub-Treasury to Uie skies.—JV. Y. Star. Correspondence of the N. Y. Journal of Commerce. Manchester, Eng. Sept. 25, 1839. The weather has been very fine since tiie.18th, and the harvest has proceeded rapidly every where.

Iu the lost number of that paper, among the sketches of tho Editor’s travels in various part* of the State, we find the following anecdote : “ On our return homeward, 'Dr. C. related some of his adventures on the prarics in the be ginning of Ins practice in this country two or three years ago. There were then scarcely half a dozen plainly-travelled roads, and his practice nt night* often led him into path* which it was im possible to distinguish. Consequently, he would oftun loose-his wuy, aud, after rambling about till morning,mien finding himself some limes from his pntient. The reader must remember that wo have no lanes in our new country, or none to ex ceed a few rod* in length, and that being upon i« oniric ill a dark night, off a well-trodden path, a like being in a boat upon the truckles* ocean, without a star or compass.
