The above table is prepared lioin L. Biodget’s Cli
matology oj the United States' m compand with Europe and
Asia; wit/irum charts,” Deductions are drawn from
ibis valuable woik, as weiiasfrom Professor Maury’s
“Physical Geography of the Sea,” where treating of
evaporation from the Tropical seas,—the course of the
North Eastand South East Trade winds, —the conden
sation of the rain clouds in the valley of the Missis
sippi, and we will add, particularly wheie they meetthe
coid air of the mountains of Tennessee and North
Carolina 6,842 leet above tide, thus producing in the
Gulf States fructifying rains all tbe year, to the ex
tent of 65 inches, and 20 inches in summer.
These monthly rains enable us to furnish Europe a
class of cotton unique, and so lar not to be found in
any part of the tropical world, where the seasons are,
as a general rule, divided into the wet and the dry.
This is the secret of our success in raising Warp, or
long staple “Uplands,” instead of Weft, or snort
staple wooly cotton;
We have prepared the above table to show our one
idea moralists and philanthropists, and particularly
those of Exeter Hall, England, and their satellites if
not their agents, in this country, “to divide the North
from the South,” ihat Providence (if we may reverent
ly use His Name,) in His goodness, to supply one of
the “ three wants of man —food, lire and clothing,”
has given the Confederate States the only region on the
globe where Warp cotton, viz;., long, white, silky
“Uplands” is cheaply cultivated in abundance. Weft
cotton —“short, fuzzy, woolly cotton”—is indigenous
to the tropics around the world ; but this class of cot
ton cannot be used in quantities, or to make strong
cloths, without an intermixture of our strong and
deiicaiefibred cotton —an annual, produced by aquick
growth, in a peculiarly favored region, where rains,
drawn up from the Southeast tropical seas (see Mau
ry> pages 74 and 75, Plate I,) are precipitated in the
Gulf dates to the extent of twenty (20) inches in the
Summer months, a period during which not a drop
falls in other cotton countries, producing cotton.
We have ajso an average high rate of mean heat in
South Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisana, and
part of East Texas, during the Summer months, 0182
degrees in lat. 30. and ofsO degrees in Tennessee, lat,
34 and 35. (See Rlogdett’s Isothermal charts.)
This length and breadth of warp cotton lands (but
partially cultivated* so lar,) extends from Wliming
ton, N. C., and from St. Augustine, Florida, on the
Atlantic, or say from longitude 80 to longitude 95 in
the East part ofTexas. From the West partofTexas
where the average fall of rain per annum is only 15
inches, it tapers off to three inches at Fort Yumas on
the Rio Colorado, wli.ch river falls into the Gulf ol
California, on the Pacific ; this whole region being
unfit to raise warp cotton. The same may be said ot
the lands lying South ofthe United States to the Isth
mus of Panama, although the cotton tree is indigenous
in many localities, as stated by Mr. Squires and others,
and also by Doct. Livingstone* in Africa, on the Zam
besi river.
The discovery we claim to have made for the bene
fit of Lord Brougham and Exeter Hall, (who would
raise cotton .in India with servile Asiatics, in Africa
with savage negroes, and in the West Indies with
Coolies, with the avowed purpose to supersede the
use of cotton from our unique cotton lands, cultiva
ted by the wellfed and well cared for, improved Alri
can race,—a class superior to “t/ie white slaves of Eng
land,” as depicted in a work by J. Cobden, in vivid
colors, and with revolting tacts, drawn from Parlia
mentary examinations and reports, on the working
of the coal mines, and the manufactories ol Great
Britain by the operatives in that country, and by their
Coolies in the West Indies) is simply this, we have
rain ail the year—twenty inches in summer—a high
range of average temperature of 80 to 82 degrees,
while other parts ofthe cotton world have the wet and
tile dry seasons, alternately, four to pbix months in
the year, yielding very limited quantities of short
fibred cotton.
The Merchants’ Magazine and Commercial Review
of this month edited by Messrs. Homans & l)ana,
N. Y., haasun able artie.e on “Flax Cottonized,” in
proof of the foiegoing, but without stating the cause
of the quality of our cotton.
“ Ther greatmanufacturing fkct which stands head
and shoulders above all other facts, and forces itself
upon the attention of the observer, like the sun at noon
day, is that in sixty years the manufacture of cotton
has.grown up to employ, in the United States and
Western Europe, 40,000,010 spindles in the produc
tion of yarns. Towards the close of last century, one
person operated one spindle; the machines of the
present day, therefore do the work of 40,0^0,000 spin
ners, and the attendant labor in the perfection of the
manufacture employs 1,500,000 persons. To supply
raw material for those spindles, there was last year
produced in the Confederate States, 4,000,000 bales,
and there was derived from India 573,000 bales ; from
Brazil, 100,000 bales; Westlndies,47,loo bales; Egypt
158,100 bales; t0ta1'5,484,000 bales. Os this {quantity,
87percent, was from the United States, ten per cent
from India, and the three per cent, from other coun
tries. Os the value $3,000,000, the Confederate States
stood for 90 per cent. The demand for the material
has grown in the double ratio of the increasing num
bers, and the improving condition of the means of
the people. The increased quantity annually re
quired to meet the demand, is now equal to the whole
crop of but a few years since. It was recently sta
ted, before “ the Manchester Colton Supply Association,”
that the number of spindles increased in Europe and
America at the rate of 6,000,000 per annum. At the
rate of 100 pounds of cotton per spindle per annum,
there is required to supply these spindles 810,0 bales
of cotton per annum, or a quantity equal to the whole
United States crop of 1830. There are then these
prominent facts:—lst, That in the present century, the
demand for cotton has increased from .comparatively
nothing, to, in round numbers, 5,500,000 bales per
annum. 2d, That it now increases at the rate of
*BOO,OOO bales per annum, which in ten years would
give a demand for 13,500,000 bales. 3d, Up to this
time, nearly the whole increase in quantity lias been
supplied by the United States; also, the only ad
vance in quality These lacts have been growing in
importance before the eyes of manufacturers and
statesmen during the last 25 years, and the most ear
nest attention has been directed to the means of in
suring a future sufficient supply; but late events have
given anew interest to this subject. The necessity of
increased sources of supply is based upon the idea of
the growing dependence upon the Southern States.
Tlios# who reflect upon the matter will, however,
observe that this question.of dependence upon this or
that country is altogether secondary, since, with the
railroad pace at which the demandgrows, itwillsoon
altogether,exceed the capacity of even the Southern
States to supply it. The question of drawing supplies
from other countries has been earnestly discussed and
vigorously acted upon during more than 30 years.
Vast sums of money have been fruitlessly expended in
the prosecution of these schemes. Disappointment
has attended all. In the mentime, France and Wes
tern Europe have grown to demand more cotton an
nually, than England required when these enterprises
were tirst undertaken. The French, to meet the same
difficulty, offered enormous prizes to produce cotton
in Algeria. The produce was bought up at premium
prices ; the fabric formed Irom it was prepared with
the greatest care at Rouen, and ostentatiously para
dedatthe Paris Exhibition. Allended in umistakable
failure Cotton of the American quality is said to grow
in Africa, but industry of the American qual.ty is in vain
sought in that country.” [The editors snould also have
said Africa wanted monthly rains throughout the
summer to give the cotton quick growth and ion**
staple] “After considering all accounts from that
quarter, and comparing them with similar; reports of
40)ears' standing, we draw from them but little hope.
“ The English have made Herculean efforts in India
butthe results have convinced the most sanguine prac
lical men that more Surat cotton only can be expec
ted thence. One of the highest Manchester authori
ties concludes a valuable report as follows: “ The
point we have to bear in mind, then, is this, our desideratum
is notsimply more cotton, but more cotton of the same charac
ter and price as that now imported from the States. If India
were to send us two millions of Surat cotton per annum, the
desideratum would not be supplied and our perilous problem
would be still unsolved. We should be almost as dependent
on America as ever. Itis theinsufficienthwpply ofthesoftwhite,
silky, moderately long cations, called “ Upland. Bowed Geor
gia and New Orleans”—or the high price of this cotton—
that has driven our manufacturers upon the short stapled na
tive article of India, called Surat, If the price of the two
was equal scarcely a bag of Surat would be employed.’
“It has been sufficiently demonstrated, howe/er,
that the growth of iqptton in India cannot be much
increased, and China depends largely upon the India
surplus. The efforts of the East India Company have
r o , be T en , feW A Or uie<Tlcit!nt - In 1840, the Honorable
East India Company sent an agent to the United
malts with a earteblanche as to expenses. He engaged

wiu?»5 U ,S M that V ,t Sl reglOn -, The y 'vere supplied
with all the laborers they wanted, at three cents per
day each; they subsisted on rice As food. One of
the planters, Mr. Terry, stated that in Mississippi
one hand could cultivate five acres, make five bales
of cotton and his own provisions. To do the same
work in India, it required three weakly Asiatics to
the acre. Mr. Teriy was sent up to the Bundlecund
districts, near the base of the Himalaya Mountains.
When he reached this locality he planted, near the
close ol theraniy season, 1,000 acres in cotton. The
plant came up, grew well, bloomed land budded fa
vorably Just at this stage of its gowth, the drouth
set in, the heavens seemed turned to brass, notadrop
of ram fell in ninety days. [‘Not 20 inches as in
Mississippi and the Gulf States.’] Ilisplants wither
ed, the leaves dried up, blossoms fell off, the rssult
was that he only gathered fifty pounds ofcotton to the
acre, against about 1,000 to 1,200 pounds in Missis
sippi. This course was invariable during five years,
at the end of which time the project was abandoned.
Ihe report ol the Bombay Chamber of Commerce,
for the year 1859-60, contains some interesting matter
on this subject. It concludes— 'the East India Compa
ny s experiment for the purpose of introducing the cultivation
oj American cotton are now brought a close. They com
menced in 1188, and have hitherto resulted, notwithstandin nr
an expenditure of .£350, <OO sterling, ($1,000,000) in a sig
nal jadure.’ Tile climate of India is an insuperable
bar to the growth of the proper variety ofcotton.
* * * It is plain that a rival cotton [grow-ing coun
try cannot, in any reasonable time, lesson the impor
tance of American cotton. J, E. 1).
