Monday in January. FOR CONGRESS, GEORGE R. GILMER, of Oglethorpe. CHARLES DOUGHERTY, of Clarke. AUGUSTUS R. WRIGHT, of Cass. 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. I’tibiiciiliotH. 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.

From the. South rn Recorder. 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.— ‘ Georgia Journal. 1 Ton. Henry Clay.— \ report has been J going the rounds that this distinguished in dividual intended resigning his scat in the} S"nate ofthe l cited Slates on the meeting of tie; Kentucky Legislature.
