CoiiOil,
We have copied in.to-day’s paper, an ar
ticle from the Boston Atlas, entitled “ llow
long may the South expect to find a market
for its Cotton in England ?” to which we
ask the careful attention of those engaged
in the cultivation of our staple commodity.
The producers of Cotton have fondly ho
ped that they would long be without com
petition in the great market which England
lias afforded them for the sale of their pro
duce ; they have been told and have hoped
that England herself, within her own terri
tories, was unable to produce Cotton so
cheaply and abundatillv as she could buy
it of the United Stales ; but the article wo
publish, proves, in part, the fallacy of these
expectations. The day seems not far dis
tant when the markets of Great Britain will
be shut against the Cotton of America, or
when American producers will find them
selves so far undersold, that the raising of
it. instead of being profitable, will entail
loss upon the planter.
The quantity produced is constantly in
creasing in this country, and has already
so far outrun the demand that the article
meets but a dull sale and at prices which
bring but a small profit. Year after year
the surplus of former seasons remaining on
hand is steadily increasing, and we doubt
not, in a year or two, that surplus alone,
will be sufficient to supply a year’s demand,
even il a season should come when not a
pound could be raised.
it seems to us, the true policy in our far
mers not to devote their attention so exclu
sively as heretofore, to the raising of Cot
ton : to pay some more attention to other
articles of produce ; and also to the im
provement of their lands, worn out by the
present system of agriculture. Above all,
we hope the day will come when it will In
considered a shame for Georgians to ho in- 1
debted to the people of other States for th.
meat they put into their mouths—when die
swarms of Kentuckians and Tennesseeans .
who every winter descend upon this State!
like vultures on a carcase, carrying off a
great part of the products of the farmer’s
industry iu exchange for hogs, horses, &o. •
will bo no more seen.
Vie throw out these hints merely for our ■
farming friends to think about, and not in
the spirit ol dictation. It is the opinion of
wiser men than we are, that a great change
must soon take place in our present system
ol agriculture, and especially in relation to
the production of our chief staple. Some
extensive planters are already preparing
for such a revolution—he who is prepared
to take advantage of the turn of the tide will
ho carried on to fortune—he who goes on
in the old track, cutting-down, wearing out,
never improving, but always wasting, for
no other reason than because bis father did
so before him, will find himself far in the
rear of the age, and will have to go to Mis
sissippi, Texas, or the and logs, which
are all places pretty much alike.

The “ Magnolia,” for October and No
vember, is the best number yet issued. It
has added the names of many excellent
writers to its list of contributors, and the
articles published will hear comparison, in
matter and style, with those of the best
Magazines in the country. More care, than
heretofore, is bestowed upon the typograph
ical execution and proofreading, a depart
ment in which the Magnolia has been sad
ly deficient. We hope the Magnolia will
continue to improve until it shall become,
what it can be made, an honor to the Slate
and to the South.
That neat and modest Journal the “Au
gusta Mirror,” deserves the notice of the
lovers of Literature among us. The new
publishers, Messrs. Jones, announce that
they are about materially to increase the
size of the paper, to issue it weekly, and to
improve it iu every way. The “ Mirror,”
in addition to the difficulties which are in
cident to all Southern Literary Journals,
has had other extraordinary difficulties to
contend with. The suspension of its pub
lication consequent upon the fatal sickness
in Augusta, was very injurious to its circu
lation, but we trust that the contemplated
improvement in it will reinstate it in the
favor of the public and obtain for it the
patronage it so well deserves.
We are requested by the Publishers of
the New-York “ Brother Jonathan,” to
give notice that they will on the first of Jan
uary next commence publishing the “Jon
athan” in a quarto form suitable for bind
ing, and although on a larger sheet, much
more convenient than the present gigantic
paper. It will be one of the largest and
cheapest newspapers in America, being on
ly $3. per year in advance, and we believe
will be equal in literary character to any.
It will contan anew novel by the author of
tiiat much admired production “The ad
ventures ofCharles O’Malley”. Wilson
& Cos., publishers, 102 Nassau sreet, New-
York.
The “ Ladies’ Companion” for Decem
ber, arrived with itausual punctuality. It
is embellished with two beautiful engrav
ings, and its pages are, as usual, well fill
ed with interesting matter. Several new
),an(l popular contributors have been engag
ed for it, and the publisher announces that
the January number shall ho dKfurpassed
in literary merit and in embellishments.
Terms $3. per annum, in advance—two
copies for $5.
We have been, of late, Hooded with re
quests to “notice"’ and to “ publish pros
pectus,” from various Northern publica
tions, some of which we have never seen,
accompanied with a promise of exchange.
We are always willing to comply with
j those requests, so far as is consisti lit with |
| our duty to our renders—but we have been j
1 so often cheated in this way by complying I
and then being disappointed of the promis !
e<l exchange, that we have become caution
Let those publishers who wish us to “ pub- |
lisli prospectus” first furnish us with an
exchange, and if we find their works worth
pujiing, we will do it with pleasure.

WHO ARE THE TRUE FRIENDS OF
TIIE POOR AND UN FORTHN ATE !
Well may the people ask this question,
in view ofthe pretentions of our opponents
and their action during the recent session of
the Legislature. Who are the true friends
of the poor and the unfortunate, of the des
titute, the helpless wife and orphan, we a
gain inquire ? Are they our Van Buren
opponents, who have claimed for themselvs
the peculiar guardianship of the poor and
the defenceless, and who have been so free
in the charges of aristocracy, and all that
sort of slang, against the party opposed to
them? Let facts answer the question.
Aflerall the promises of Relief to the peo
ple, which were so plentifully pledged to
them during tlte late canvass, by the Van
Buren party, the measure having any real
pretensions to such a character, was the
law rescuing from beggary and utter desti
tution the helpless wives and children of
unfortunate debtors, by excepting from sale
under execution, and retaining for tin in, ni
ter all else is gone, a shelter to cover th it
heads, and land enough with their own in
dustry to support them.
This law, as was shown by its talented
and worthy introducer, is trul v one of relief
—relief in the best sense ol the term, and
it is no less the offspring of the soundest
policy. The roliefis real : and commends
itself to the heart of every humane man, be
cause it is emphatically a law for the pro
tection of the unfortunate and the helpless
—and it no less commends itselfto the pru
dent politician, because while it docs so
much forthe helpless, it actually is doing
for the creditor the best that can he done to
secure the eventual payment of his debt, bv
stimulating the industry of his debtor—while
to society it commends itselfloudly by be
ing the means ofthe prevention of utter des
titution, that fruitful anil almost inevitable
source of crime.
Thus truly and obviously is this law one
of relief, of humanity, and of public policy,
and well may it be distinguished as the law
to aid the poor and the destitute.
Now who introduced this truly democra
tic relief measure to the Legislature, and
by whom was it passed ? Was it a leader
or ev: n an humble member ofthe Van Bu
ren democratic party, or was it passed by
their influence and aid ? No such tiling.
The bill war. introduced by Mr. Rucker, a
good and true Harrison man, a representa
tive from Old Elbert, a county as little con
laminated with the patent democracy of the
day as can be found in the same number of
square acres in Georgia. Ami what re
ception did the representative of old Elbert
meet for his law at the hands of the Van
Buren a- mooratic majority in the Legisla
ture ? Was it a kindly one ? So far from
it, that their hostility had well nigh “Wrang
led it in its birth ; it met with kicks instead
of kindness during its progress; and was
almost lost by their persevering hostility at
last. While the Harrison men went for it
with much harmony, it required all their
en rgy to prevent the measure being defea
ted without a hearing. This our neigh
bors ofthe Standard and Federal Union are
well aware of, and we call upon them to
declare the reasons of the opposition of
their friends in the Legislature, to the Poor
Man’s Bill.
We have had hitherto, in all conscience,
asurfeitof pretences of kindness for the
poor man, on the part of our opponents : we
have seen the result of these pretences when
attempted to be carried out in truth and in
fact by their opponents. They stand be
fore the country, and we place them prom
inently there, the worst and most unfeeling
enemies of the poor man, in opposing a
measure to secure a shelter for the unfortu
nate debtosv and his helpless wife and chil
dren. Let them answer to the charge.—
They may rest assured, they will have to
answer, willing or not. Let the answer be
rendered, and let the people of Georgia de
termine the matter at issue, what party is
the true democracy ofthe State—who are
and who are not the Poor Man’s Friend.
A SINGULAR BILL.
V o noticed ,:n individual in the Senato
I Chamber, a few days ag >, making an < tibrt 1
Ito gel one ol the Senators introduc . for j
the action of tlie Body, a hill of which the
| following was theTuption :
j “A Bill to admit Levi Simpson and his!
j constituents to enjoy and support a consti- I
j lutfonal religion, to the honored -society and j
God ; save the State and the people; in-’
crcuso the population ; and support the in
dependi nees ofth” country.”
\l hat the provisions of the hill are, wo
know not; neither do we know whether Mr.
Simpson’s bill will have a hearing in the j
Senate. But be this as it may, there is one
tiling certain, and it i< this—Mr. Simpson's ;
bill is not thoonly straitm document that
the Senate has had presented to it the pres !
*nl S‘ ssion. M a-a i res have there been ac
ted upon, as absurd ns measures can be, |
and which have no redeeming qualities—
no, not oven that of ‘increasing the popula
tion.” as Mr. Simpson appears so desire.— ‘
