A. H. Stephens, Esq.:
Dear Sir:— The Whig party at its late Con
vention in Milledgevilte, (with extraordinary
unanimity,) nominated yourself to be voted for
on the first Mon lay in October next, to fill the
vacancy in Congress occasioned by the resigna
tion of the Hon. Mark A. Cooper, and appoint
ed the undersigned to communicate the iact to
you, and ask your acceptance of the same.-
Permit us. sir, to unite with your Whig friends
in hoping that you will respond favorably to a
call thus made, by permitting your name to be
used in a cause so full of interest to us all.
With sentiments of the highest esteem, we
are, sir. vour obedient servants,

Crawfordville, 29th July, 1843.
Gentlemen: — Your favor of the 30tn ult., no
tifying me ot the proceedings of the late Whig
Convention, in relation to a nomination to till
the vacancy expected to be made by the resig
nation of Mr. Cooper in our Congressional
delegation, was duly received, and should have
been answered before this, but for the delay in
receiving certain information of the resignation
of Mr Cooper.
f'crKni* iUentified as I do with 11-*- ffraat prin
ciples oi the Whig party of Georgia, and be
lieving that upon their success depend the best
interests ot the country, and the only safe hope
for the return ol prosperity to the people, 1
could not, gentlemen, refuse to yield whatever
ot personal consideration might under any oth
er circumstances induce a contrary course, to
the wishes and views of so large a body of our
friends, expressed with such “extraordinary
unanimity.”
The nomination is therefore accepted. The
result is for the people to determine. The is
sue is now fairly before them, and with that
“cause so full of interest to us all,” to which
you allude, you will permit me to add, I con
ceive to be involved die great questions whether
our Government should continue to be adminis
tered according to the principles and usages
established by its authors, and under which we
grew to be a happy and prosperous people, or
whether the maxims and examples of the lath
ers of the Republic are hereafter to be abandon
ed, and every’thing orthodox and'sacred is to
yield to the theories of modern innovators, who
have brought such ruin upon the country.
Please accept, gentlemen, for yourselves in
dividually, my best wishes, and the assurance
of my highest esteem. Yours respectfully,
ALEX. H. STEPuEN'S.

tion, calling a meeting of the Committee ol
21 appointed by the Whig Convention to fill
any vacancies that might occur in the Congres
sional delegation of Georgia.
“The shortness of time now remaining before
thegeneral election, the importance of a speedy
nomination to supply the Congressional vacan
cy, and the uncertainty in regard to the tempo
rary location ol the Chairman ol the Commit
tee, have induced from many quarters the ur
gent desire that a definite time should be indi
cated by the press here, for the meeting of the
nominating Committee. Fully agreeing with
our friends in regard to the importance of an
early day’ of meeting ol the Committee, we
■would respectfully suggest the Is.! Monday of
September, as the day for the meeting of the
Committee. Should the Chairman, in the
mean time, designate another day, he willdoubt
less acquaint each member of the Committee ol
such determination.”

The British Party.—A Liverpool paper,
says the Richmond Whig, received per Great
Western, manifests a great desire to impress the
American mind with the belief that Free Trade
is making rapid progress. It may not take place
in two or three years (it says) but it will come
sooner or later. It refers to and dwells upon a
motion and speech by Lord John Russell, in fa
vor of a mixed duty, as proof of its assertions.
In another column, itgives an account ot a meet
ing in Bedfordshire—attended by this Lord John’s
brother—who strenuously opposed Free Trade
:and advocated a fixed duty as affording the best
protection. This is the sort of Free Trade which
both of the great parties of the Kingdom support
—it is the Free Trade which will give the surest
protection to British industry. The Liverpool
paper unwittingly discloses the secret of its so
licitude on this subject, by saying that the Alite

To the Kiti urs .M I'rd' - , .
Two valued correspondents havt recLally
asked my opinion upon the subject of the - ,ii Hi
—its operation upon theilsf.etent interests ot the
country ; and to* one of them expresses a wish
to publish the views ol a resident of the city, 1
have concluded with your permission, to reply
through your columns.
Twenty years ago, through the influence of
Governor Clinton and the late Benjamin Know
, r ot Albany, 1 became a convert to a Protective
I'arili. Frequentconversations with those gen
tlemen upon the subject, convinced me that no
country upon earth possessed thg resources with
in itself of becoming so substantially prosper
ous and independent as our own—that in its
length and breadth it embraced every element of
prosperity, and when that prosperity was once
secured by permanent legislation tor the protec
tion ol our own interest, none could be more
favorably situated to prosecute a profitable For
eign Commerce. Commerce is but the agent of
Home Interests, and when they are sound and
prosperous, it twice blesses—the agent and the
employer.
Relleetii n has strengthened these opinions;
but it .was reserved for the present year (1843)
to demonstrate their soundness.
The last Congress, alter mature deliberation,
adopted a Tariffof Duties which, while it brings
ample revenue to the Treasury, fosters, to a
liberal extent, American Labor.
Under the influence of this Tariff every in
terest of the country is rising from a state of un
paralleled depression quite as rapidly as could
be desired; and what will greatly disappoint
opponents ol tint measure, the importation of
foreign goods tie present year will be somewhat
beyond the wants oi the country, producing a
revenue from Customs of some two or three mil
lions more than ilieestimateol tbe last Commit
tee of Ways and Metins.
This is not mere conjecture. A good fall
trade is anticipated, and the orders that have
gone forward tor goods to airive'in July and
August will be found to be quite large enough.
I'he opinion iam aware has obtained, to a con
siderable extent, that because this city is strictly
commercial, its citizens are generally opposed
to a Tariff. Such is not tbe fact So far as my
information extends, a large proportion of our
well informed American merchants are friends
of a Protective Tariff. A few, who are exclu
sively in the Importing business, the Foreign
interest, which is large, and generally’ respect
able, as regards character, and a portion of the
Shipping interest, are what is termed Free
Trade. ‘
Several of the most intelligent of the latter
class, hdwever, have said to me, that they had
no expectation that we could preserve a sound
and well regulated currency without a Tariff
Tali; to them of Free Trade in ships and they
will tell you they could not Jive without dis
crimination.
Nor have the South so much reason to com
plain of the present state of things No section
of the country is recovering more rapidly from
theteriible revolution of 1836. and 7, than the
States ot the South and South West. Cotton,
at the present price, pays the planter better than
the agtii u’titrai products of the Northern West
el n States remunerate the farmers of those
States.
* In Alabama and M ississippi, it is estimated
that a good negro will grow 6 bags of cotton.
At 5 cents per pound this would amount to 140
or 150 dollars.—To Iced and clothe the negro,
costs from 60 to 65 dollars, leavinga clear profit
from his labors ot about SBO.
The present value of the negro is from 350 to
450 dollais, and cotton lands which in 1836
brought 20 to 30 dollars per acre, now sell from
Bto 12. The natural increase ol stock (I mean
slaves) it is always estimated, will pay the inter
est on the investment.
The consumption of cotton in this country
the pre ent year, will not probably vary much
from fontliundiyd thousand bales, and thus lar
it has keen taken by our manufactures at prices
that have paid the planter 10 or 15 per cent,
more than that shipped to Liverpool or Havre.
And sj of. bi cad stuffs. For years past, the
safes: and Test market for Western Flour has
been the district of a. count:y in New England
devoted to 'Manufactures: and, although our
inercliimts have occasionally felt authorised, by
accoUeis from the other sice, to ship Flour to
Europe, the result has invariably shown that the
home .maikel is more to be relied upon than the
foreign.
Up let'the present system, it is fair to estimate
that the domestic market tor the great staple ol
the South will increase some 10 per cent, per
innuui for 12 or!s yeais toediue, and before
that pefkid arrives, Virginia, Sorth Carolina,
Georgia, Tennessee, and perhaps Alabama, will
have become Tariti'States, each its Lowell
and Fatierson within its borders.
During my 'experience in trade—and it ex
tends bi ck more than twenty-live years—all our
commrverolros.ui.ton* tout lute rtoi. o.rig.ux-Ajy- .
excessive importations from abroad. It is vain
to say tj.e country will take no more goods than
it actually requires. Nine times out of ten, all
me go” is brought here wiil be sold, li the im
porter folds then 1 is a large surplus infiist liancis,
lie will oiler-to the jobber, inducements, eitlier
.11 price ar tune, or both, to take them off from
uis hands; and when tne jobljer rmds he has ae
cumul-..ed a stock beyond the demands from his
regular eitsiouiers, he will be sure to place a
ponioii of that stock where he ought not, by ta
king up men ol" doubtful credit—and so ol the
retailer in the country. Preserve the present
rate of duties, and all these evils will be avoid
ed.
The present tariff excludes from our market
Manchester Prints—an article, the importation
if which has heretofore taken a large amount
of specie out of the country —and what has been
the consequence ? Why, within the last eight
months ihere have been improvements in this
coimtiy in the machinery connectetl with this
branch - f business, (printing,) sueli as were
sever made in England during th •hme num
tier of veins; and the consumer is now furnish
ed with Domestic Calicos, at 6 to 15 per cents
per yard, superior to the imported goods, for
which he used to pay from 18 to 27. And this
will be the case with numerous other articles.
Wherever foreign competition is excluded,
there will akvays be such an application of
capital :.nd skill as will favor the consumers.
Who, past middle lile, has f rgotten the large
amounts of specie formerly sent from this coun
try every year for the purchase of East India
Cottons—goods familiarly known al that day as
“ Hvin-ki'riis?’'' The Tariff of 1816 imposed
duties upon those gooffs that amounted to a pro
hibition. "Within two years thereafter, their
place was supplied by a domestic article supe
rior in texture, and at a reduced price; and from
that time to the present, the rmniilacture of
brown and bleached cottons lias steadily ad
vanced, until New England now spreads lier
heavy fabrics in the cotton market, side by side
with-the Calcutta goods, and challenges a com
parison. ,

A few years will go f;.r to equalise the advan

Tn Importation of American Cotton
Goor ..-io England, says tec Baltimore Ameri
can, tai ti-u the British people not a little.
Specu;..b<m is busy in eonje.-tiuvs to know tiie
hieani:: s’ieb st.at.ge qlieiiomtmin. An
...t.gliG.. • per j uts thequestio:;—“for win.: pur
pose are American manufactured cotton
sent tj England'!"—And to this query a King
ston (Jamaica) journal.says very sagely: “ 1 here
cannot be a doubt that some ouject is to be at
tained by this movement. Wliattliat object is
must be ascertained, and we dare say will be by
parties in the mother country who are immedi
ately interested in the discovery. After all, par
ties'in distant portions of the world may suppose
tbe “Stark Mills, Manchester” an English es
tablishment; especially if the goods are export: i
from England.”
If tliis poor consolation is ail that is left to the
English manufacturers, they are welcome to it
as tong as it lasts—but being founded in a de
ception, it jfiu st beoi uncertain duration, to say
the least of it.
As for the object to be attained by sending A
nierican cotton goods to England, it is a very
simple one; it explains itself. The inference to
be drawn Iroin the fact is plainly this—that A
merican industry, ingenuity and perseverance,
when properly countenanced ami sustained by
the American Government, can maintain Ame
rican superiority in any pursuit to which those
qualities may be devoted. Another inference
trom the fact is that trie business of supplying
foreign manufactured goo-..- may fall into Ame
ricati hands, to the downfall of British suprema
cy, and that while England is conquering dis
tant countries lor tlie extension ot her sales o.
manti acturcs, the rea benefits ot the trade thus
ipenedmay be secured by her American rival.
Large quantities of cotton goods have gone t
China trom Borton, witiiin the year, and in pio
lortion as the ports ol tiie Celestial Empire aie
in?, ic free to foreign commerce, and access al
lowed to the interior, in such proportion it is
probable, our shipments of American mantilac
s.iied goods will be increased.
These results willl not be agreeable Ic Eng
land. Our policy of protecting our own Indus
ry to supply otitselves with manufactures is s
very bad policy in her estimation, and when ii
comes to pass that we supply not only ourselves
rut other countries also with manufacture!
roods, the policy becomes in her opinion stil
nore odious and detestable. Her Journals ar
redieting the overthrow ot the American taritl
nd even the “free trade Democracy” in our ow.
auJ are not more profuse in denouncing the in
i justice ol that policy. But in spite of English
representations abroad, and “free trade” denun-
eia’ions at home, that policy will stand—unless
indeed the bHnr.iH.ss ol rarfv rage shall triumph

The Soldier’s Dog.
The Editor <4 the Philadelphia U. S. Gazette,
Joseph R. Chandler, Esq., has abandoned the
toil and,drudgery of the Editor’s table, and is
“on his winding way,” o’er hill and dale, in
search of adventures, which by the magic pott -
er of his polished pen, are transferred to the col
umns of his deserted journal. The “King of
Letters” has paid a visit to the territory of our
neighboring sovereign. From his interesting
description of the “sights” at Montreal, we ex
tract theMlowing. It is beautiful, and the sto
ry is told as Ac only can tell it:—
Th- great attraction tor tiie young folks in
this city, aie the parade of tile two rdgimeuis of
British soldiers. The “Champ de Mars” is
beautiiitily adapted not only for the evolutions
of a regiment of about a thousand, but also for
the large number ol both sexes who gather to
see the military display and to hear the music
ofthe two fine bands.
On Tuesday morning, the Highland regiment
was out for a special display, and the movements
were marked by a delightful precision ; but 1
noticed that the ladies were greatly attracted by
the musicians, who, on that occasion, weie in
rich Tartan, having in front five full dressed pi
pers. These men wore in their caps a single
straight feather that looked as sharp and fierce
as in the best days of Rob Roy; while their legs,
naked upward trom the knees, had quite a sum
mery appearance.
As the battalions inarched, I noticed that the
only being that ventured upon the military
ground, besides the military themselves, was a
large black dog. He seemed to understand the
orders of the Colonel, and though lie could nei
ther aid in “taking open order” with the “rear
rank, 1 ’ nor in wheeling into columns with the
whole, yet he evinced much tact in avoiding the
tread of the soldiery in their rapii movements,
and that without evincing any of that haste
which is unbecoming a gentlemanly dog.—
When the music joined the regiment, tbe dog
took up his march with the band, and seemed
pleased with the rich Scotch airs to which the
battalions marched. He evidently understood
them, and evinced both taste and politeness by
making no sign of approval untilthe musicians
had completeda tune. Thedqg had completely
got into the spirit of the time and place, and
was enjoying the parade ant! music with special
gusto. There was a place in the rank of the
musicians unfilled, and the dog took his posi
tion there and completed the square as they
marched in column.
At length there was a halt, and almost imme
diately the band struck up that plaintive Scotch
ait to which Dempster sings his words ofthe
“Irish Emigrant;” it was exquisitely perform
ed. The poor dog, howe. er, left the rank, walk
ed slowly the distance ofarodortwo, and sat
quietly down, throwing his head a little to one
side as if to catch every note of the lune, and
evincing a sort of melancholy pleasure in the
performance. At length, the music ceased, and
the dog rose slowly, and with a sort of measur
ed step, left the parade.
Poor dog, he had been the property of one of
the musicians; his master, whose place was va
cant in the hand, had brought him across the
Atlantic, and during the sickness which ulti
mately laid him in the grave, he was wont to
play tiie tune which the band had just perform
ed. The dog had learned to love music, for the
sake of his master first, ami then for music
alone—-but that tune awoke the memory of eth
er days as clearly and distinctly as you and I re
call tothe memory of each other, some kindand
heart-broken friend whom fate has brought to
an early grave.
I would have given money’ for such a dog,
but it would have been a shame, if not a sin, to
tear him away from such associations, and so 1
left the animal to follow the rich tones of the
band, delighted with the music and doubtful of
the feelings and recollections which it called up
—to listen wishfully as sortie mournful air
awoke an indistinct'reminiscence ol other days
—and then when every instrument poured out
in mournful cadence the cherished notes that
his fond friend and master was wont to give to
“Mary,” to shrink away and moan a melancho
ly accompaniment.
Marriage.
Marriage is to woman at once the happiest
and saddest event of her life; it is tbe prom
ise ot future bliss, rai.-td on the death of all
present enjoyment. She quits her home, her
parents her occupations, her amusements, every
thing on which she has hitherto depended lor
Comtori, for affection, for kindness, for pleasure.
The jiarents by whose advice she has been
guided,—the sister to whom she had dared to
impart every’ embryo thought and feeling,—the
brother who has played with her, by turns t[ie
counsellor and counselled—the younger chil
dren, to wlioin she has been mother and the play
alLare to be.fiitsaken atone lellstrokh :
every former tie is loosened; the spring of every
hope and action is to be changed; and yet she
flies witii joy into the untrodden path before her.
Bouycd up by the confidence of required love,
she bids a fond and grateful adieu to tiie life,
that is past, an * turns with exerted hopes and
anticipations to the happiness to come. Then
wo to the man that can blight such fair hopes,
who can treacherously lure such a heart from
its peaceful enjoyment, and the watchful protec
tion of home,—who can coward like, break the
allusions that have won her, and destroy the
confidence which love had inspired. Wo to
him that has too early withdrawn the tender
plant from the props and stays ol dicipline in
which she has been nurtured, and yet make no
effort to supply’ their place for on him be
the responsibility of her errors, —on him who
has first taught her, by his example, to grow
careless of her duty, and then expose her with a
weakened spirit and unsatisfied heart, to the
wide stoms and the willy temptations of a sinful
world.
Anecdote of Gen. Li:e.— VVhep the Gene
ral was a prisoner at Albany, he dined with an
Irishman. Before entering upon the wine, the
General remarked to his host that, after drink
ing, he was very’ apt to abuse Irishmen, for
which he hoped his host would excuse him in
advance. “By me sow!, Gineral, 1 will do that,
il you will excuse a trifling fault which I have
meself. it is this: wheniver I hear a man abu
sing ould Ireland, 1 have a sad fault ol cracking
hi* sconce with me sbillalah.” The General
was civil during the whole evening.
Cockroaches.—The following method ofde
stroying these detestable intruders is simple and
effective: Procure from the apothecary a small
quantity of that odoriferous vegetable called poke
root. Boil it in water until the juices are ex
tracted, and mingle the liquor with good molas
ses; spread the mixture in large platters or soup
[.lutes; place these wherever the cockroaches
visit, and the enemy will be found slain by’ fifties
and hundreds on the following morning. A
gentleman to whom we are indebted lor this in
formation, states that he slaughtered 575 cock
roaches in one pight, by the abov; process, and
that the root which had been boiled being thrown
into a closer thickly infested by the enemy, the
place was quitted entirely in a few days, great
numbers being left dead upon the field. — Boston
Gazette.
AnevDotb.—Tbe following anecdote is rela
ted in the Evangelical Magazine: An African
pteachei, speaking from “What is a man pro
fited if lie gain the whole world and lose his own
soul?” mentioned that among other things, many
lost their souls by’ being too charitable! Seeing
the congregation astonished beyond measure at
his saying it, he very emphatically repeated it,
and then proceeded to explain his meaning:
“Many people, said he, attend meeting, hear
thd sermon, and when il is over, they proceed to
divide it. .mi among the congregation—that part
was for that titan, that part ibr that woman; and
such denunciations were for such persons; these
threats tor v<.u sinners—and so, continued the
shrewd African, they give away tiie whole ser
mon and keep none ibr themselves 1”
A Search fob Treasure.—About forty-three
years ago a British brig of wat, mounting 20
brass guns, and having a very large amount ol
specie on boar I, sunk, with ail hands, off Cape
Henlopen. We learn from the Philadelphia
Inquirer that Captain Meeker, of New York
whose ingenuity in such enterprises is well
known, is now at the place where the brig was
lost, with apparatus for raising her, or at least
recovering her guns, and, if possible hertreasure.

Fill me one brimming cup —it is the last,
And let those lips now parting and iorever.
Breath o’er this pledge ‘‘ the memory ofthe past! 5
Joy’s fleeting sun is set, and no to-morrow
Smiles on the gloomy path we tread so fast:
Yet in the bitter cup, o'erfilled with sorrow.
Lives one sweet drop—the memory of the past!
But one more look from those dear eyes now shining
Through their warm tears, their loveliest and their
last; r • i i
But one more strain of hands m friendship twining
Now farewell all, save memory of the past ’
SONG.
Here’s a smile for the past, with its sunshine and shade*
For no tear can restore us one joy that’s decay’d:
E cn an urn, when the sunlight is over it thrown,
.iio more seems the record of sorrow alone ;
i’or the brightness that heav’n hath lovingly shed,
Seems to tell us Low calm is the sleep ot the dead.
A smile! still a smile! though the flow rs which appear
On <»ur pathway of lite may yet cradle a
Siill the light of our gladness each drop will illume,
And its warmth change each grief to the spirits per-
Then why should we sorrow when gladness can shed
A light o er the living, a calm o’er the dead?
AFFECTION.
BY H. W. LONGFELLOW.
What I most prize in woman
Is her affection, not her intellect.
Compare me with the great men of the earth-
What am 1 1 Why, a pigmy among giants •
But if thou lovest—mark me, 1 say To vest—
The greatest of thy sex excels thee not!
The world of the affections is thy world —
Not that of man’s ambition. In that stillness
Which most becomes a woman, calm and holy,
Thon sittest by the fireside ot the heart,
Feeding its ilame. The element of fire
Is pure. It cannot change nor hide its nature.
But burns as brightly in a gipsy camp,
As in a palace hall.
FORGIVENESS.

AGRICULTURAL.
INSTRUCTION IN AGRICULTURE.
The extract which we give below, says the
Louisville Journal, from T. H. Burrows’ re
port to the Legislature of Pennsylvania, has an
important bearing upon agricultural instruction.
It is a plan which contemplates permanent
schools and professional teachers. These may
be educated men, able to give instructions in
the various scenes connected with agriculture
and horticulture in a practical manner, using
the ground they occupy for illustration and ex
periment:
Teachers’ Houses and Lots.— There are as
yet few teachers’ houses provided by the dis
tricts. But the system will not be complete nor
the profession of teaching permanent till they
are possessed.
The teacher is now a wanderer. He engages
for a month, a quarter or a half year in one
neighborhood, and next session is perhaps f -tind
a hundred milesoff, inpursuitot his precarious
subsistence. * * * *
By this itinerant life, lie either soon becomes
disgusted with his profession and leaves it the
first opportunity, or loses his hope and his ener
gy; and with him sinks the respectability ol the
profession. There are, it is true, many and
bright exceptions, but it is at the general rule
and not the exception that we are to look.
In addition to the stability of increased use
fulness which a permanent and comfortable re
sidence for the teacher will produce, it will also
be a great saving to the districts. A teacher
provided with a comfortable house and garden
for the whole year, will certainly demand less
for his services than he who is onliged to board
out orient. Being comfortably placed for the
year, he will be induced to open a private
school, after tbe termination of free teaching,
(in districts where the public schools can be sus
tained but part of the year,) and thus be found
at his post when the district school re-opens tor
the next season, and will be enabled to teach for
less than il he were obliged either to move his
family every six months or be out of employ
ment halt his tune.
The subject of teachers’ houses is here intro
duced to bring it to the notice of directors, es
pecially in new counties where land is cheap.
They will find it to be very much to their future
advantage, if they now, in providing school
lots, procure them of sufficient size for a teach
er’s house and garden, in addition to the school
house and play ground.
The tollowing, from Beard’s travels in North
ern Europe, says the Journal, show that the
plan which Mr. Burrows proposes has been tri
ed, and is no longer to be considered an experi
ment It' this succeeds in Denmark and Nor
way’, where the greatest economy in education,
as tn everything else, is required, it certainly
could be adopted with equal success here.—
Could houses and grounds be furnished teach
ers, the great obstacle to making teaching a pro
fession would be removed, and the interests of
i scientific agriculture and public instruction
would be closely united. It is perfectly plain
that, until this profession be established, educa
ted men, those only who can give agricultural
instruction, will not engage permanently in
teaching. Concerning the schools of Dermark,
Mr. Beard says:
.“The stranger who journeys in this country
cannot avoid being struck with the great num
ber of schools which be sees as he passes from
village to .village. The parishes are required
to pay the salaries ot' the teachers. This is
done in a variety of ways. In the first place,
almost, every school has adjoining to it, or at
least not far from it, the house ol the teacher,
-TwgertTtrr wWtr .r fe'-' .Veres rrt-grrni ,■■ ■ -.vl.v-Sy ■
long to it, and of which the teacher has the oc
cupancy as a part of hi* wages, In the next
place he receives a certain quantity ot graiti
and other productions from the parish, also as
part Ql bis salary. In the third place he re
ceives some money, but in general not a x’ery
considerable sum; for the wages of teachers are
low in this country' where living is cheap, staff
where salaries of all kinds are not great. As a
general thing they pursue the business for lite;
and certainly no men render more important
services to the State than those of them who are
capable and faithful.”
Again, in reference to the schools in Norway,
he says«-
“Tlie salaries of the rectors, as (lie school
masters are called, vary much, according to tbe
different circumstances of the country. Usual
ly each school district has a house for the teach
er adjoining the school; and, in addition to his
salary in inofiey, pays him in kind or nature, as
it is termed, a portion of the productions of the
ground or other means of their wealth. In gen
eral the teachers are enabled, from their various
incomes, to live with a good degree of comfort.”

COLIC IN THE HORSE.
In your number for May, I notice an article
on “Colic in tiie Horse,” and it gives me much
pleasure to be able to concur with you most
fully in regard to the severity and danger ofthe
disease; and for the most part also in tne treat
ment, which, so far as it goes, is in every re
spect unexceptionable; and I think it not im
probable that when resorted to in proper season,
will, as Mr. Stewart believes, succeed in eight
cases out of nine.
The ninth horse, however, ought to be saved
if possible, and I as freely believe that this last
object may be attained in every true case of colic,
as that the first eight will lie saved by the reme
dies proposed. I cannot agteewithyon that the
first object in the treatment is to arrest the fer
mentation, or that this is a primary cause oi co
lic, believing it to be only one ol the conse
quences. However this may be, I would rather
say that the first object is to allay the pain—to
relieve that excruciating agony which is, I ap
prehend, the very first morbid change which
lakes place in colie, and which being suspend
ed, all other morbid phenomena subside of
course, unless disorganization of the intestines
has already taken place. This object can al
ways be attained by thp proper Use qf opium—
exhibited either alone or in combination with
the stimulants advised by Mr. Stewart, The
last, however, I should think might be essen
tial when there are evide. t Symptoms ot ex
haustion and prostration of strength.
In’cases of much severity, two ounces of a
saturated tincture of opium, (laudanum,) may
be given every half hour, till the pain is reliev
ed, and if the symptoms are peculiarly distress
ing, three ounces may be given once in twenty
minute.-.
If tiie belly is distended and very hard, a mo
(leiT.tel ’eeffingii.ay be conjoined with this treat
in -nt «i:h a'lvatm'’-’.’.
1 have known 8 ounces of laudanum admin
istered in two hours, with perfect relief in a
case of great severity, when all other remedies
had failed of even mitigating I he symptoms.
Very respectfully, H. Watson.

TO YOUNG MEN—FARMERS' SONS.
In addressing this class of readers, I wish to
lay aside the dignity ot the editor, and come
among you-as one or your own number. For
’ I too am a young man, and a farmer’s son; and
/ /.'wk from experience what disadvantages you
labor under in the pursuit of knowledge, and
what numerous discouragements you meet in
your efforts for intellectual improvement. But
I also know, that if you have the ivill you can
, succeed in making great attainments; and 1
know, too, that there is a great work for you to
do, and great things will be expected of you.—
Immense responsibilities rest upon you, as those
who are about to assume the management of our
much-abused farms —as those to whom the com
’ in unity must look for that reform in our practice
r ol agriculture which is so imperiously deman
. ded at the present time. It begins to be plainly
seen that it will not do for you to follow in the
beaten tracts of your fathers, and content your
selves with doing as they have done. They re
ceived their lands at low prices, fresh fro n the
hand of God, abounding with fertility, and pro
ducing plentiful crops with little skill or labor;
while the absence ot western competition ena
bled them to obtain a ready market for all their
r surplus; and their simpler habits and fewm
wants, renderedit less difficult f r them to attain
respectability and happiness tn their profession.
But how different is your situation! You ob
tain your lands at high prices, and many ol
them "so impoverished by a long Course of ban
culture, that the staple productions are greatly
diminished; or the fields are so filled with nox
ious weeds, that a double amount of labor is
necessary to obtain even a scanty crop. While
the competition from the vast West is so great
ana increasing, that prices must be veiy low.
It is affirmed by some, that the wheat crop o
Western New York has diminished, in the ave
rage yield per acre, one quarter, or 25 per cent
in ten years! How long trill it be, at this rate
before our great staple will not half pay forth,
labor required to produce it? Do you say thir
cannot be helped—that it is impossible to’kee]
up the wheat-growing capabilities of our soil!
No such thing. li/■ vdsilto — and easy too,
n..• n?’v lu’op il Up, 1 111 to itlrrea'A’it; if we
will * y accept the ai i whichy L
Look al what has beei do*'m real Britain.
With - hl not equal to <iurs by nal“ <•, alula less
favorable climate, in district* where science has
been combined with intelligent mdu-.try, the
wheat ciop has steailily incl eas<;< in \ i 'III, al as
rapid a rate as ours lias dev.ie.i- ,so that forty
to titty bushels pitracie are now frequently ob
tained, where at onetime, with much labor,
the yield was only half that quantity.
But you will ask, “Hpw are l “ obtain this
knowledge! We have only Tplain schqpl edu
cation, and are obliged to devote nearly mil our
time to labor. Scientific learning belongs to
colleges, find those whrt pre not obliged io worit
fora livmg.” Here again i* a great mistake,
and one which the iauiilv are very apt
to fall into. I unhesitatingly affirm, that there
is scarcely a yout g man in Western New York,
of ordinary intellect, who cannot, it he has the
desire, make himself familiar with all the most
important sciences connected with agriculture.
Within a lew years past, so many excellent and
cheap books have been published,in which both
theory and practice are explained so that- all
Who read them can understand, that there is no
longer any good excuse tor remaining in igno
rance. It is true there isone thing greatly need
ed in this country, which is not yet supplied;
but, if young men will make their wishes
known, it soon will be. We mean an Experi
mental School of Agriculture. To thjse who
could devote a year or two to the subject, such
an institution would be pf more benefit than
man}’’ years of reading.- Let none delay, how
ever, and let none repine because they are oblig
ed to labor: to labor is noble—yea, is a bles
sing. On.y make good use ot the time you
have, and of the powers God has given you, and
you can rise above all difficulties, and will find
the profession of agriculture afford you more
true enjoyment than yottffow cotjpeive possi
ble.—Neic Genesee Farmer.
Charcoal as a Fertiliser.—lV e have been
astonished at the increase of the
wheat crop in France wilhin the last eight or
ten years, and have devoid-some attention to
ih* investigation *1 liic sublV' L, Il .ar* u.a:
charcoal— an article tfeigi’»«#'obtain >d here
for a tithe of its cost —ha* been ex-
tensively used, arid effect, in ferti
lizing the wheat lands oi tftu kingdom. A cor
respondent ot the New Burners’ Journal, aq
English print, states that-wring a sojourn in
cne~ of the central departpents ol France, he
learned that some of the mast productive farms
were originally very sterile! but that lor a num
ber of years their proprtctj'S had given them a
light dressing of charcoal; which had resulted
in a large yield of wheat of an excellent quali
ty. Since his return to England he has tried the
experiment upon his own fends, with the same
happy effect. The charcoashould be xvell pul
verized and sown like lime! after a rain or in a
still damp day. Even in ftagland, the writer
says, “the expense is a meie trifle, in compari
son with the permanent improvement effected,
which on grass is truly wotderftil.” He states
one other very important result from its liberal
use. “I am quite satisfied :that by using char
coalin the way described, rust m wheat mil he
entirely prevented', for 1 have found in two ad
joining fields, one of which ivas coaled, and the
other manured with farm yard dung, the latter
eras greatly injured by rust, while that growing
in the other was perfectly free from it.

CURE FOR BOTS.
A writer in the Columbia (8. C.) Planter,
gives the following remedy for hot*:—“As soon
as symptoms of hots appear, raise the upper lip
of the horse, and with the sharp point ol a knife,
scarify the inner coat of the lip (beginning at the
top) making a number of slight gashes, trans
versely, causing it to bleed sligiitly. A case has
never come under my own observation, (and I
have cured many,) in which this simple mode
of treatment did not succeed instantly. The
most violent paroxysms will be relieved in five
minutes. What connexion or sympathy there
may be between the lip and maw' I leave to the
curious and learned to decide.
OBITUARY.
Died, August 2d, 1843, in Warn n county, Ga.,
after a very short illness, in the 58th year of het
age, Mrs. Nancy, wife of John A. McGinty.
She had been a member ofthe Baptist Church
for nearly twenty yeais, and niainuii’ied a good
Christian character. She was spared to see all
her children grown, and most of them connected
with the church. For several years it. hud been
her desire to die before any of her eliiidren, and
often tried to impress them with the importance
.of faith in Christ and a life of piety anil useful
ness. It may be ti tilwsaid, they have lost a mo
.her that was deeply "interested for their happi
ness, temporal and spiritual. While the church
and her friends lament her unexpected death, let
them be comforted with the reflection, that what
is their loss is her gain.

Previous to th.’ arrival of the steamer there was no
difficulty in purchasing canal llour at $4 87A, and ship
piusr it to Liverpool at ls6d & bblfrright, and at those
rates of prices and freight Hour could be sold to-day
tor shipment—to what extent we caiinot precisely say,
but from the best information we can obtain not to a
very heavy amount, as there is a general feeling on the
pai t of operators to wait the arrival ot the packatof
the 19th inst before entering the market.
There is nothing doing, however, for shipment yet:
operators who would buy for the purpose at previous
prices, as noticed above, being deterred by two causes
first, that the holders of Genesee Hour are now ask
ing #5. and second, that the ship owners have advanc
ed their rate of freight to 2s bbl.
For Genesee the asking price is $5. Michigan and
flat hoop Ohio are scarce and would bring $1 81|. In
Southern we hear of no transactions, but there is no
improvement in prices. W’e quulc Georgetown al $5.
Liverpool, August 4.
For some days after the departure of the last steamer,
19th nit., we had some increased demand for cotton,
and the sellers obtained a further slight advantage : but
for a week past the tendency has been the other way.
and rather in favor of buyers. The result is, that pri
ces are much the same as at the date of our Circular of
18th ult.. with a moderate steady demand, but without
animation or briskness. The weather has not been as
favorable and genial as could be desired at this critical
period, and must make the harvest later than had heen
calculated on. which probably tends to check business
in cotton, anti may also, in part, account for the Man
Chester market for goods and yams having been com
paratively languid tor a week or ten days past. The
•ales of cotton for the week, ended 21st ult.. amounted
o 36.550 bale*, of which, 4000 were taken Ibr exporta
lion, and 251 • on speculation ; —and for the week end
’d 2Aih ult., the business was 28^70bales ; of which.
000 was for exportation and .Jsoh on speculation. Ot
his last week’s business, 4610 were Upland at 3| fd 5&;
o,’>GO Orleans at 7 ; 6140 Alabama and Mobile at
4 (a) 5| : and 510 Sea Island at (a) 20d lb. The
msiness for five days to last evening is estimated at
4.0u0 bales ; of which about 10C3 bales have been taken
oi export, and 20C30n speculation. We quote Upland

Cotton. — The demand for cotton has proved less ex
tensive than during the preceeding week, but the mar
ket has not wanted firmness, and on the whole a lair
amount of business has been transacted. In all in
stances have our last quotations been obtained for A
merican descriptions. Hu rats have also supported their
previous value, as likewise have Brazil and Egyptian,
and the lower qualities of the latter are less abundant

The general opinion here regarding the new ctop is
that it will prove a light one, which causes holders to
display much confidence, and prices, it is anticipated,
have reached the lowest point of the season. Specu
lators have purchased 3600 American, and the sales al
together this week, have comprised 28,370 bales, of
which 22.050 were American, 1120 Brazil, 1150 Egyp

August 3.
A fair amount of business has taken place in Cotton
since Friday, the 2eth ult. The market has not exhib
ited any new feature, and prices remain as previously
quoted. The accounts by the overland mail are deem
ed favorable in a commercial point of view, and are
calculated to impart more briskness to manufacturers.
The sales this week have comprised about 23,000 bales,
of which speculators have taken about 3200 bales.

Cotton—The merchants of Liverpool are making a
movement to induce government to allow a drawback
upon duty paid Colton exported. At presnait fjfteign
buyers are limited t'o the quantity in bond, but”unaer
the new system they will also have the free stocks to
choose from. It is a fortunate circumstance that the
Commissioners of Inquiry into revenue affairs, and
the President of the Board of trade are favorable to
this plan. The market to-day maintains a steady ap-
Searance, and there is no alteration whatever in any
escription of American cotton; a fair demand con
tinues to be experienced. The salr-s will reach about
5000 bales.
London, August 3.
Cotton — Our market is firm and a steady demand has
been experienced at full prices.
1 Havre, July |b.
Cottons— The same depressed character in business
noticed at the close of last week, continued to prevail
during the early stage of the present one, and an in
creased desire manifested on the part of holders to re
alise promptly, created a downward tendency in prices,
which led to a slight depreciation. But the amended
tenor of the accounts subsequently received fiom Li
verpool, having induced dealers to come freely into the
market the buying became very spirited, and the tian
sactious have been daily to a large extent, at sttfl rales,
which have recovered the ground they had previously
lost.
The activity that has been (ijsplaycd, and
which bids fair at present to continue, iiaia never
theless not yet been attended with any improve
ment in piices; but they have acquired a degree
of firmness which, aided by a progressive demand
can hardly fail eventually to produce an amend
ment in cur quotations.
This will, however, be in some measure sub
ordinate to the situation of the interior, the in
telligence from whence is not of an enlivening
feature ; for although at the commencement oi
the season, trade, without being very brsk, was
nevertheless profitable to the nianufacti :er, the
case has been quife. ;he reverse for some tjnie
past, and the anticipations that had been enter
tained of continued prosperity in business, have
been far from attaining reality, and the result at
the close will, it is to bu apprehended, fall consid
erably short of remuneration.
August 1.
A reaction has taken place in Cot ton market,
which is again dull, but without any change on
prices. In other articles, nothing worthy of com
ment has occurred.
