THE DAILY TIMES. MONDAY, OCTOBER 18. Telegraphic Despatches. Hon. Wm. L. Yancey, and Roger A. Pryor. The controversy which has sprung up between these gentlemen (says the Huntsville, (Ala.) Dem ocrat )\s a source of great regret to their mutual friends- We do not think that Col. Yancey is justly to be blamed lor it. We concede that some suggestions of his Slaughter letter were not ot our notion, but they were not of a character to justify the acrimonious aesault of Mr. Pryor Nor is tiiore anything in the Constitution ollhe Lenjue Of United Southerners,” (however, Southern men may differ about the policy of such an orgamza lion ) to provoke the denunciation of any true Southerner, much less Mr. Pryor, who had gone as far as Col. Yancey ever did, in his denuncia tions of Northern aggressions, and expressed de terminations to resist further aggression “at all hazards and to the last extremity.” The reply ol Mr Pryor to Colonel Yan cey’s letter to him is marked by his usual brilliant and diffusive style, but it is far from being a fair and just criticism upon Colonel Yancey’s letter, his general political course, or the League, We see in it more of the skilllul evasion and special pleading of the artful dialec tician than the plain-sailing logic ol the straight forward exponent and defender o truth* Personal triumph, rather than the success of truth for truth’s sake, seems to be Mr. Pry or’s object, and in his zeal to accomplish this object, temporarily,he has jailed to acquaint him self thoroughly with Col. Yancey’s political his tory, parfcularly his relations to the Democratic party. Here, if our memory does not deceive us, Col. Yancey has it in his power to disprove some ol Mr. Pryor’s allegations of fact and to place completely hors du combat. He will bo?.ble to show that he is no disappointed office-seeker; no supporter ol Administrations for the sake of spoils; never assaulting without cause; yet never chary of censure when deserved ; never wanting in leal ty to the true principle of States liighis republican ism,or losing an opportunity to defend them .when necessary; always their true, gallant, eloquent champion in good and evil report. We would specify particulars in which Mr. Pryor'has spoken, without the record of Col- Yancey ; but we have not time or inclination to do so. at present, espec ially as we think it likely that Col. Yancey, as soon as his health will permit, will furnish the facts in his own vindication. Franklin College. Asa matter of courtesy, says the Augusta Chronicle and Seniirtel, we publish the commu nication of the Rev. W. J. Parks, proposing to sell Franklin College to the Episcopalian Church, for we dissent entirely from his views. Although we feel constrained to believe that the College is a doomed institution, under its present manage ment, yet we regard it the duty of the legislature, to make it what its founder, and the sages and patii ots who framed the Constitution designed it should be—a “University.” It is simply ridiculous to call it by that name now. Every State owes it to the people, to found within its limits the best institutions for the education of its sons, and Georgia has as yet fallen far, very far short of the performance of her duty in this respect. So far that the State institution does not rank above, ifit equals those endowed by private munificence. We are perfectly aware that these opinions will not meet with favor, or be appreciated by rigid sectarians, or the small beer politicians and dema gogues of the day, who are always clamorous about taking the people’s money to provide for the education ol the sons of rich men; bat we care not, as we do not address ourselves to such narrow minds on a question of such magnitude. We look alone to the intelligent and liberal-minded to carry out such a purpose, and when the question is be fore the people we shall make our appeal accord ingly, and we shall not hesitate to tell them that tho College and Faculty need removing, purging from basement to dome, before it can succeed. For as at present organised, we regard failure inevit able—certain—only a question of time. These may be, and no doubt are, unpalatable truths to some men, but they are nevertheless truths, which, in ouropinion.it behoves the people to meet bold ly and fearlessly, like patriots and statesmen, and apply the remedy.

Tiie Atlantic Cable.— An interesting letter from the Valentia correspondent of the London News, is cheerful in tone, and counsels the friends of this great enterprise not to despair “until the theoretical experiments are verified by practical tests.’ He also mentions the important fact that “days early in the ensuing month,” i. e.

(From the Correspondence of the San Francisco Bulletin. # The Future of Mexico—Jler Immense Debt. Although an attentive looker on,-*and a long and active resident of this country,nd moreover ono who takes a deep interest in its future, I confess that never -did such doubt hang over my mind, of what is to come out of all these troubles of this coun try at tire present time. I sometimes am almost induced to believe that there is no salvation for this naturally rich and beauti ful, but politically cursed land: and that political annihilation must soon take place. Of one thing lam sure; that with Mexi cans alone, the country must lose its na tionality within a very brief period. In proof of this, we need simply cast our eyes over the record since the tune this country became independent. The revolutions and violent changes which have taken place will clearly show, that the natives ol this country and all mixed, inferior races, are completely unfit to enjoy, as they are inca pable of conceiving, a purely Democratic, responsible government. Mexico has had fifty-two changes in her government since the year of her independence—in 1821— about one government to every half year; and the greater portion of all these changes has been brought about by civil war—or, in the parlance of the country, by pronun ciamentos. With every change of govern ment, the credit of the country has declined, until now the interior-debt-bonds are only worth, in the market, about 11 to 8 per cent. The price of the different foreign convention debts differs according to times and circumstances, but they all hold a higher figure than the interior debt, from the fact that the conventions are supported by other governments; at least the nations for whose citizens these conventions have been made, occasionally bully a little through their legations here, and thereby the stockholders make out to get a portion of their interest, overdue. While I am speaking of the debt I will give you, from the best authority, a list of what Mexico is known to owe. The table is taken from the Mexican Extraordinary ,and is acknow ledged to be correct: British Bond-holders’ debt, $00,621,843 00 Spanish Convention, 7,270,600 75 English Spanish Convention, 5,000,000 00 French Convention, 263,490 00 American Claims, 3,000,000 00 Total of Foreign Debt, #76,156,133 75 Mexican Interior Debt, 53,451,455 08 Total (as figures are made up,) . , . #129,607,588 83 Besides the amount footed up above, Sr. Lerdo mentions another debt, which he de nominatea “ fioating.” The amount of this floating debt is not known, but he says it did amount to many thousands. It is not at all improbable, if the statistics could be obtained, that this fioating debt runs up to several, if not trany millions. Thus you will see the amount of debts this country has accumulated in the brief space of twenty-seven years—this country, which in the latter days of its provincial existence, sent its millions to Spain, and at one time, paid almost the entire colonial expenses of the island of Cuba. Now Cu ba has an export about four times greater than that of Mexico. Cuba has remained a colouy and has prospered, as would Mexi co, had she not become maddened by the intoxicating idea of self-government. An American “ Protectorate ” Urged. But my idea is not to get too deeply into this subject, for volumes can be written that could be filled with interest. My object is to show some powerful illustrations of the decay of this country, its incompeteucy for self-government, and to urge that the Uni ted Slates, for self-preservation; may do her duty before long to this country and save it from the vagabondage to which it has arrived, Not only is it the policy of the United States to do this for present and future political purposes, but it is her duty to do something with Mexico in justice to her citizens who have come here under treaty stipulations, and who have been plun dered and outraged in the most shameful manner. The resolution of Sam Houston, offcrid in the United States Senate and adopted by the British bond-holders, at a late meeting in London, as gospel, has a deal ef good senst in it, and sooner or later, it must be acted upon favorably. How a Protectorate might be Established. The number of Americans in this country, is about 500 at this time. Of all other foreigners, we have about 9,000 more. The Spaniards are in excess of all others put together, and their retrogade ideas have done much to put Mexico in the condition she is in to-day. Had tie a large Ameri can and English population here, the effect would be marvelous on the country: but neither Englishmen or Americans will come here to risk their capital, so long as their Governments allow them to be plundered with impunity, as they have been, for the last few years. England has clearly said, by her actions here and elsewhere, that she ‘ wishes the United States to lay hold of and dictate a steady gqvernmentto Mexico; .and it only remains for the United States to dic tate strong terms to Mexico, to procure submissive quiet at once. What the United States ought to do is, to dictate a form of government to Mexico and enforce quiet on the country. This can be done by the agency of a clever man here, as Minister of the United States; for all classes of re spectable people in Mexico, notwithstanding they sincerely hate everything which is Anglo-Saxon, would give their support and aid to such an agent of the United States, for their own preservation. The prelimi naries once arranged, details could easily be carried into effect, as five thousand men, judiciously distributed throughout this country, would keep down any revolution ary. feeling which might get abroad. It would be a virtual protectorate, and might cost the American Government some ad vances of money ; but, a country that is na turally so rich as this, has no need of being a beggar, after she has once established peace. Peace would soon rejuvenate the drooping and dying interests of this country, and would bring in a very considerable amount of foreign enterprise and capital; and, with the increase of all branches of industry, the revenues of the country would soon exceed the wants of a liberal govern ment, and at the same time admit of a great reduction on the unjust duties from the present tariff. Every one who at all knows this country —its rich mines now worked besides those known to exist, but which have not been worked, on occouut of the insecurity of tfis country—its facilities for manufactures, its rich arable and grazing lands, and its great demand for railroads, which open fields for the most unlimited speculation—must confess that a stable government in Mexico would create a spir it lor business that would surpass the most brilliant periods in the history of California or Australia. From the Macon (Ga.) State Press. Cotton Planter’s Convention. Report of the Committee on the “Opera lions of the Plantation” submitted to the Convention at the Adjourned Term, in the City of Mocon, September 4 ih, 1858. Gentlemen : Under a resolution passed at the meeting of this body on the Bth of Jme last, a committee was appointed upon the various “operations of the plantation.” The subject would admit of a very large and ex tensive report, embracing, as it does, the whole business of farming, such as making and preparing cotton for market, making ample provisions for the farm, raising stock of all kinds, as well as the best method of managing the entire business of the farm. Cotton we regard a very delicate plant,sub ject to very many calamities in the progress of its production. In the first place, it is all-important to prepare the land intended for cotton early in the spring by thorough ly breaking up and pulverizing the soil, considerably in advance of sowing time.— Great care should be taken in placing the seed in the ground in such quantities as to insure a stand. Early working is regarded as important to encourage the gtowih ot the plant, soon after it comes up, partially thinning it out so that the growth may not be too much kept back by too many plants being crowded together. It is very diffi cult to determine, after long experience, what sort of tillage is best for the cotton plant. Oi r seasons are so changeable and uncertain, and our soil so variant, that it is almost impossible to give a uniibrm plan of planting or tillage. We think, however, that much depends upon a proper prepara tion of the soil, and that the best mode of tillage depends very much upon the seasons and character of the soil. We think light soils shonld be but lightly plowed—often enough to keep the grass down and the plant in good heart. Stiff soil should be oc casionally bioken up deep until your cotton begins to branch, when we think light cul tivation is best for the balance of the year. In preparing it for market we think it im portant for the planter to supply himself with a good gin and press or screw, and let the picking commence as early as the hands can get one hundred pounds per day, and that all other labor on the farm should yield to the gathering ol cotton as much as con venient in the early part of the season. In relation to the provision crop (we mean all the cereal productions common in our climate, such as corn, wheat, peas, oats, rye and barley), much and particular atten tion should be paid, otherwise we shall fail in another very important branch of farm ing operations, to—wit; the raising and sup port of all the various kinds of stock impor tant to be raised and kept on the farm, such as mules, horses, hogs, cattle and sheep. We believe all these various kinds of stock should be raised on the plantation to enable the p anter to be, as he should, an independent member of society. So you perceive the great necessity of appropriating a large portion of our farm to the produc duction of grain of some sort. We should so manage our farm as to raise everything upon it that is indispensable for our con sumption, except sugar, coffee, salt and iron. Let us all do this, and then if all our time is not taken up, let us plant cotton. Considerable advantage may be derived from having fifty acres or more set in fruit trees for the benefits of our hay crop, espe cially when every-thing depends upon what is grown within our enclosure. Some cau tion is necessary in such a state of our vo cation not to let our stock become too nu merous ; keep just enough to be well fed and cared for, especially hogs and cattle. Planters, who ol all others should be the most independent portion of the people, are still the most dependent in a good de gree, owing to the suicidal policy pursued by a majority of those engaged in that em ployment. Too many of them depend upon making cotton to buya large portion of the provisions for the support of the farm, as well as clothing for the laborers and all oth er articles of necessity. This is regarded as a mistaken policy. Our cotton, as well as all other surplus productions of the farm, are very often in this manner of necessity forced upon the market, and we are com pelled to submit to the dictation of the pur chasers as to price ; and this practice tends as much as any other thing, to produce the constant liuctuation in the price of the arti cle. Your committee are ot the opinion that the consumption of the article of cotton is now, and will continue perhaps for all time, to increase in an unequal proportion ; and that it is not unlikely that cotton will ever again fall below a remunerating price.— Your committee are of the opinion that con cert of action on the part of the planters is only necessary to enable’ them to realize ( their truly independent position, and force others to feel and acknowledge their influ ence and elevation. Vour committee submit the foregoing as their report upon the ninth division of the President's communication to the Conven tion in your last. Respecfnllv, BENJ. H.

We take the following cheerless para graph from the Picayune of Sunday : We cannot congratulate ourselves or our friends abroad on any marked improvement in the epidemic that has been steadily car rying off its hundreds of victims weekly. The average of deaths maintains a fearfully steady figure, and we know no other assign able cause for this sad state of affairs save the quite as steady influx of citizens and strangers who, despite all warning, persist in coming amongst us only to furnish fre*di food for the destroyer. The disease latterly has entered the dwellings and counting rooms of those who are generally, as a class, exempt from.such attacks on account of their seclusion and regular, quiet occupation. A .number of young merchants, book-keepers and pro fessional men have succumbed. The dis ease appears stiil to have little regard even to the very children born here, and many j households have thus been made deso-1 late. * T eleg-raphic. REPORTED FOR- THE COLUMBUS TIMES. Savannah Market* —The sales of cotton for Saturday were 1"00 bales, at the following quota tion: Middling Fair 12 cents. The Board of Health reports no interments from fever on Saturday, Specimen Rhetoric.— Mr. Winter Davis, in his letter to the students at the Univer sity of Virginia, thus soars into the regions of boundless space : “Such fever in youth portends madness in manhood. It is a temper alien to the genius of our republic, whose life is free dom of thought freely spoken, a temper which tends to civil strife, the shock of ex tremes, softened by no conciliatory coun sels, the tyrannical domination of local ma jorities to the extermination of every pro test, and the collision of those majorities in arms when the kindly memories of the past are only a little more obliterated by in jurious recriminations.” We submit to Mr. Davis “whether at public elections should the votes of faction predominate by internal suggestions or the bias of jurisprudence ?” Cost of Electric Light. M. Edmond Becquerel, a French savant , has been recently engaged in some experi ments with a view to determine the com parative cost of electricity as an illuminate ing agent. He used a battery of zinc aftd platinum, with strict attention to economy, and the results were as follows : The standard is the light of 350 candles of the best quality, and the cost of Coal gas at $1.60 per 1000 c. feet, was $0 35 Oil (Rape seed,) at 17 cts. per lb 0 60 Stearine candles, at 32 cts. per lb. 2 52 Wax candles, at 52 cts. per lb. 3 12 Electric light, 0 58 Thus showing that although the electric light is cheaper than candles, it will not at present compete with coal gas, at least un til some cheaper battery power be found.— Scientific American. 83^°J- W.
