m'Ui * .ip in many parts of our Slate, which, it

seei;- u/. likely to do well, and the opposition to

a ! » .a 1 >m\l. and something more acceptable to the
p. - . mid be adopted. Holding as Ido the
ri Jit petition as a sacred right, yet, if * plan

sue;i .i plan should have the precedence. I
.-h ir-like to see the scene of 1832 reacted

the words; how much more I should regret

Less than a year ago, Mr. Price was fl mrish
ing away at the Springs. Two cottages had
; been erected connected with, and in the rear of
I ths United States Hotel. One of these was built
for Mr. Price, and the other lor Swartwout. The
latter was absent, hut Price'was in his glory.
There were those, however, even thus early, who
distrusted them: On one occasion—we have the
story' from Col. Hise, formerly from Kentucky,
but now o’ Louisiana—at a dinner party, the
conversation turned upon the subject of govern
ment defaulters and loco-motive sub-treasurers.
Mr. Price talked very patriotically against them,
t and was .so peculiar/:/ earnest that Col. Hise
broke forth with the exclamation—“ Til lot pan
a hot fir of wine that you will be a defaulter and
run a tray yourself before the 1. M of January”
Some of the company laughed at the icmark as
mere badinage. Price looked rather blank, and
affected displeasure at the imputation, and wish
ed the remark retracted. But Col. Hise persisted
in the prediction, and they parted. Scarcely two
months had passed, before the absconding of the
one made a prophet of the other.—-V. V. Com.
Tex as Crocs.—Ti is asserted by a correspon

i hands, ninety-seven hales of Cotton. Mr. Swee
ney, a planter of the same neighborhood, states
in a previous number of that paper, that, if the
season be favorable ibis year, “from three to four
thousan 1 pounds will be picked per acre, and
from twelve to Jifiei n bales made to each hand.”
Is tiier? any thing in the history of cotton-plant
ing in th-' State of &>sissippi to equal this?
Twelve hags of cotton, weighing oi)0 pounds
each, make 6000 lbs. to each hand. Cotton is
now selling in Mobile at 15 cents per pound.—
«floo pounds, then, at that price, would bring
>OSO, i i Alabama money—the produce of one
hand in Cotton alone. —Teyas Star,

BY AN OCTOGENARIAN CITIZEN OK PHILADELPHIA
PREFACE.
Impressed with a thorough conviction that the
prosperity of tins country is indissolubly connect
ed with the regular course of the cotton trade—
that with respect to that important branch of the
national wealth, we have fallen into egregious er
rors, which have produced most tuinous conse
quences—and believing, moreover, that the sub
ject is susceptible of some sound views which .
have not generally been taken of il—l have pre
sumed that, anxious, at the close of my career, to ,
promote the prosperity of a country, lo which I
am largely indebted, I could not better employ a
few days than in presenting to the public the re
sult of reflections on the subject, which have been
spread through nearly twenty years. Whether
I he right or wrong, the discussion cannot fail to
ho useful. If 1 err. il would afford afa r oppor
tunity for other citizens to refute me, and to cs- .
tubhsh the true theory of the trade—if otherwise 1
such alterations may take place in the manage
ment of the production and trade, of and in this
great article, as will to a certain degree secure us
from a return of the enormous evils which our
incorrect system of want of system has entailed
( on us.
I propose to consider—
1. The great and rapid increase of the produc
tion and consumption of cotton.
2. The various fluctuations in price, and their
causes.
3. The wise and earnest admonitions received j
roin Liverpool against our course.
4. The remedies.
j Increase of Production and Consumption.
There is no instance in the history of human ;
| iqdustry of such a wonderful increase in the pr - j
; ducliou or consumption of any aiticlc applied to I
human uses, as has taken place in the case of
' cotton.
i The imports into Great Britain from this coun
j try were.
I * Li 1800 10.172.313 lbs.
1810, 13,363.987 “
1821, 101.180.400 “
1830, 200.830.171 “
1833. 237,925,122 “
'The great increase of consumption caused, but ;
did not keep pace with, the increase of produc- !
tion.
I shall confine myself to the case of Groat Bri- !
tain, as data respecting the consumption of the |
article on the continent of Europe, are not here j
attainable.
The consumption in that country for eight
years, from 1801 till 1808 inclusive, was I
455.545,908 lbs.
From ls20tll! 1827, 1,330,249,959 ••
Ami from 1828 till 1835. 2.250,812,477 “
Shewing an increase of 500 per cent, between
the first and List series.— Porter's Progress of
the Ration, p. 205.
'The export and valuetif our cotton for twenty
two years inclusive were:
ISIG to 1820, 175.921,7 57 lbs j 168,338
1821 to 1825, 7 62.81 1,790 | 123,726,118

1831 lo 1837. 2680.434 536 | 349.140.911
Tims it appears that while we increased the
quantity in the second series about 50 per cent,
the increased value was only about two per
cent! ! and while the export of the third series
was nearly 150 per cent. «>:i the first, and about
60 percent, on the second series, the increase in
the proceeds was only about six per cent!! and
while the quantity in the fourth series was above
live fold tint of the first, the increase in value
was not three-fold.
I'll emotions in Prices.
II is remarkable how liable this great article is
to be raised or depressed by a small addition to.
or diminution of, the coming crop. Some years
since il appeared, by a circular letter of I ropper
cV Benson, that the arrival of 8009 hales of the
M.*v cotton rather earlier than usual, and a lloat
| ing rumor of an in Teased crop, reduced the price
j above a penny, a pound. Insignificant as thisrr
| «!su lion may appear, il never tireless amounted lo
i 2 or 83,000,060.

.1 tlmonition* of thi Liverpool Merchant*.
The Liverpool mcrclunts look great pains to
, prove l!i.it the planlcrs'»U‘gbt to diminish the cul
ture of cotton, and thatmir merchant* should n..t
glut the foreign market! an they had d me with
such deleterious elfc* 1.l Nothing couhl l»r more
judicious than their adifonilion*. Hut they pro
duced no effoct. *lu |> look place from year to
year, and paces Jrmfffmly fell, so that the increase
of quantity p"»,lijc-eil no corresponding increase
*of proceed*—i ut often, on the contrary, a re
duction. &
Rcmc theit.
On a fill/ view of this interestin'.' snb}r f. if ap
}>ears Ili.it the evils that exist in the trade in eot
j ton arise /r.un two causes—the first, that nolwith
j stun ling fin* wonderful increase of consumption, !
product ifn generally out runs it—the second the ,
extreme mil pernicious irregularity of supplies,
soineiini’s increasing and at others decreasing j
ten or fifteen per cent from year to year. Hut j
in this yasc, as in m »sl others, however easy it
may lie o discover the evil, it is difficult to de
vise, and-tiil more to apply, adequate remedies.
I venturdto suggest two, which would he effect
ual, if rallied into operation. Hut they require a
concert o| opinion and eomhination of action
among thfniass oi those interested in the planting
and exporing of cotton, which, with ho large a
h.aly, arc i'arcely attainable, (ircat, however,
as is the i|ftV. ully, it is prohahle that were one
or two of be mighty master-minds, w hom public
exigenciesiuhn >sl always call forth to meet ex
isting emergencies, to devote their influence and,
energies to this paramount object, one or both
might be carried into operation, and place this
branch of American industry and resources
on soiVeWtlWr ot u stable fooling ; or. at all events
reduce the evil within narrower hounds.
One plan ts, to divert a considerable portion of
the capital and labor now superfluously and in
deed injuriously employed in the culture of cot
ton, to some other agricultural employment—for
instance, the raising of mulberry trees and silk
worms. corn, wheat, rye. &c. Cropper iV Hen
son. of Liverpool, in a circular, dated Dtb month
27i11. 1822, urged this course on our planters,
anti concluded by emphatically staling, that in
this case ••they might certainly sell their surplus
Cotton at any price.” This sound advice unfor
tunately passed unheeded.
The other plan is, for the parties concerned, or
a sufficient number of those most largely inter
• ested, to form an association, and erect large store
houses in the different ports of shipment, for the
purpose of storing up a portion of a superabund
ant crop, till the state of the foreign market i
would warrant shipment. On these deposites,
advances, it safe prices, might la* made,sullicient
to meet the exigencies of the planters, while they
secured the association from loss.
I feel confident that the immediate and deci
sive adoption of this plan of storing cotton, with- j
out waiting for the erection of warehouses, would
arest the crisis with which the commercial woild
is at present threatened.
With respect to the first plan, it is strongly im
pressed on my mind, that, in the early settlement
of \ irginia and Maryland, when tobacco was
almost their only article of export, such abundant i
crops were raised as to glut Hu foreign maikels.
and ruin the parlies concerned. The legislature
of \ irginia, if I recollect rightly, passed an act
restricting the culture of this article, which, in a
year or two, restored the cquilihrum between de
mand and supply. I supposed that this was slat- ,
cd in Wynne’s history of America, but on exami
nation I find this was an error; nevertheless, the j
t fact is indisputable.
The policy here recommended, although novel
in this country, is as old the days of Jacob and
his sons, when granaries were established to store
away the abundance of one year to supply the
delliricncy of another, by which means prices ■
were maintained at an equable rale, and such ]
ruinous fluctuations of price prevented, as are cx
j perienced here in the cotton trade. (Ir.in.iries
! are at present in use in various parts of Eurojie,
j to store the superfluous grain, and hold it in re
; serve for years’of scarcity.
The Dutch, .in the days of their prosperity,
! when they met op oil zed a large portion of ihc
r „«
chantable goods, had large magazines for the
I purpose of storage, and withdrew the various ar
| licles in exact quantity to suit the demand. Not
; satisfied with this system ; so far as regards spi-
I ces. they buried the superfluous quantities—Sir

1. Docs not this nation possess as many and
as signal advantages as ever fell to the l«»l ofanv
other nation, ancient or modern ?
2. Is it not nevertheless, in an abject state of

3. Can a policy he sound which reduces such
a rising and powerful nation, possessed of such

4. Is it not worth while to pause, and ponder
well on the unceasing increase of our enormous

heavy interest we have to pay that quarter ol the
