A PLAGUE O’ THIS COTTON.
A traveller from Charleston to St.
Louis on the Missouri, in a letter lo a
friend in the former city, thin describes
lie-manner in which lie was bored with the
• crnal siylit and sound of this staple pra-
,nre of the country.
“ When I took my hist walk "along the
iharvcs in Charleston, and saw them
.filed up with mountains of Cotton, and
ill votir stores, slops, steam and canal
boats, crammed with and groaning under,
the weight of Cotton, 1 returned to the
Planters’ Hotel, where I found the four
d,iily papers, as well as the conversation
of the hoarders, teeming with Cotton!
■('often!! Cotton!!! Thinks I lo mv-
sdf “ I’ll soon change this sccno of cot-
ton." But, alas! il o\v easily deceived is
short-siphted man ! Well, I got into my
gig an.] wormed my way up through
Queen, Meeting, King, and St. PliilipV
streets, dodging from side to side, to steer
clear of the cotton waggons, I came to the
A Ur Brio i. r c. Perry.—Here 1 crossed
ype jji the Horse-boat, with several envp-
H’ cnituv waggons, and found a number
hi tint other side, loaded with cotton, go
ing to town. From this I continued on,
meeting with little else, than cotton fields,
cotton gins, cotton waggons—hut “ 'he
wide, the unbounded prospect lay before
me !” I arrived at Augusta ; and when I
\wcotton waggons in 1 froad-strret, 1 >rhis-
fh /J! but said nothing !! ! But this was not
all ; there was more than a dozen tow
boats in the river, with more than a thou
sand bales of the cotton on each ; and so-
reral steam boats with still more. And
Nun must, knew, that they have cotton
wm (do - uses there revering whole squares,
all full of cotton; and some of the knowing
"tes told me, 'hat there were then in the
lii. -e from 40.000 to 5a,000 hales. And
!i eubiirg (as a negro said) was worsen, ac-
(ii db g to its size ; f r it nuzzled me to
ht'l hid) was the largest, the piles of
cotton or 'he houses, f now loft Augusta ;
and overtook hordes of cotton philters
(iroin North Carolina, Smith C ;*ro‘inn, a nd
Georgia, with large gangs of negroes,
bound to Alabama, Mississippi and Lou
isiana : “ when* the cotton land is not
worn out.”—Besides these, I overtook a
number of empty cotton waggons return
ing li une, and a great many loaded with
cotton going to Augusta. Two of these
waggons meeting one day, directly oppo
site me, the following dialogue took place
between the drivers—“ What’s cotton
.in Augusta ?” s.ays the one with a load.—
“ Cotton!" says the other. The enquir
er supposing himself not to he understood,
repeats “ What’s cotton in Augusta ?”
*‘ Its cottonsavs the other. “ I know
that,” savs the first, “ lint what is it?”—
' Why,” says the other, “ I tell you ils
cotton ! cotton is cotton ! in Augusta, and
every where else, that ever I heard of.”
“ I know that as well as von,” savs the
Sirs', “but yvliat dues cotton bring in Au
gusta ?” “ A\ by, it brings inviting, there,
but every body brings cotton." “ Look
here,” says the first waggoner, with an
oath, “ you had bettor leave the State^
for I’ll be d d if vou don’t know ton
much for Georgia."
“ I continued mv journey passing cotton
fields; till I arrived at Holts Ferry, on
the Oconee, where T saw three large polo
boats loaded’ with bales of cotton, twelve
tier in height. F r om thence I went to
MTedgeville, where I found the prevail-
hig op.c of'lie place, “ what an infernal
sbame.it was,that such a quantity of virgin
cotton land should be suffered to remain in
tJie possession of the infernal Creek Indi
ans" From Mdledgeville, I went to Ma-
( '‘. l n 4 which they s-iy is surrounded with
fnost excellent cotton land ; but the town
it i< supposed, will grow much faster when
t becomes the seat of Government, and
has more banks. From thence, I mov
ed on to tiie westward, crossing Flint
K ver, and from thence to the Chnttaho-
Tiiie found cotton land speculators thicker
•Inn locusts in Egypt. But from Line
Creek to Montgomery (14 miles) the land
is nearly level; the fields of one planta
tion joining by a fence those of another ;
\md all extending hack from the road far
ther than you can distinctly see ; and the
cotton pretty even, and about as high as
the fences, and has the appearance (as
Hi ley says ofZahara) of a complete hori-
son of cotton. They have, almost all of
them, over-planted ; and had not more
Chan one-half their cotton picked in ; each
plantation has a cotton gin. I next came
to Montgomery, which I found over stock
ed with cotton, and no boats to take it a-
way. From Montgomery I went to Blake
ly, and on my way, saw many cotton
plantations, and met, and over-took, near-*
Iv one hundred cotton waggons, travelling
over a road so bad, that a State Prisoner
eould hardly walk through it to make his
escape. And although people say that
Blakely is done over, there wasnot a little
cotton in it. From there I crossed over
to Mobile, in a small steam boat loaded
n P to the top of the smolce-pipe with cot—
tyr*. This place is a receptacle monstrous
for the article : look which way you Afcill
you see it; and see it moving; keel boats
steam boats, ships, brigs, schooners,
wharves, stores, and press-houses, all ap
peared to be full ; and, I believe that in
the three days that I was there, hoarding
with about one hundred cotton factors,
co-ton merchants, and cotton planters, I
must have heard the word cotton pronoun
ced more than 5000 times.
From Mobile I went to New Orleans,
in a schooner, and she was stuffed full of
cotton. I arrived at New Orleans on the
8tli of February, on the night on which
Miss KppIIv was to make her first appear
ance there; and F went to the Theatre.—
I was directed to go up a certain street in
the' upper Faubourg and turn into the first
conspicuous brick building, lighted up on
the right. I did so ; and h 'TO d behold!
I found myself in a steam cotton-press
house, where they work, watch and watch
bv candle-light, screwing cotton. After
an examination, however, I went to the
play : and after that was out, I enquired
the way to a licensed Pharo Bank, tfc was
told that I would find one at the Louisiana
Coffee-house, just below the cotton-prcss,
opposite to a cotton warehouse.—I dont
know how many hundred thousand hales
of cotton there were in New Orleans; but
I was there onlv six days, in which time
there arrived upwards of 20.000 bales—
and when we dropped out into the stream,
in a steam-boat, to ascend the river, the
levee for a mile tip and down, opposite
the shipping, where they were walking
balp.s cn end, looked -as if-it was alive.—
A Kentuckian who was on hoard, swore
the cotton had rose upon the town :“don’t
you see,” says lie, “the bales marching up
the levy.” Coming up the river, T saw
many cotton plantations, and many boats
at Baton Rouge, Bayou Sarali t and other
intermediate plares, loading with cotton.
And in passing the month of Red River,
we took on hoard five more passsengers,
who live near Natchitoches. They say
that they cannot get boats enough in the
river to bring illecotton down that is made
there, that they make the best cotton they
ever saw ; that they have the best cotton
lands of all the cotton countries; and that
if they continue to settle up there as fast
for the next five years, as tliev have for
the last, they will he able to inundate the
world with cotton! ! At the month of Ar
kansas River, we took on hoard about fif
ty negroes and two overseers, who had
made a very excellent crop of cotton in
the Territory, hut found it too unhealthy
a r>lacp to remain, and were gome back to
North Alabama. From Now Oileans to
the month of Tennessee River, we passed
about thirty stenm-bonts, and more than
half of them laden with cotton’ also about
twenty fiat boats a day, for ten da vs, and
about half of them were loaded with cot-
f on. When we got up to the Muscle Shoals
there was more cotton >n waiting than
would fill a dozen steam-boats. I went
bv land from Florence and Tuscnmbia, to
Huntsville. There is a vast deal of cotton
made about the Shoals, in North Alabama ;
and thev go all for quantify and not for
finality. Ginned cotton was selling there
for about six cert's ; and most of the les
ser planters have sold theirs, in the seed,
at one and a half. After leaving Hunts
ville, T passed to Nashville; and on my
wav, saw an abundance of cotton and cot
ton fields. The Tennesseans think that
no other Stale is of any account but their
own ; Kentucky, they sav, would be, if it
could grow cotton: hut, as it is,it is good for
nothing. They calculate on 40 or 50.000
bales of cotton going from Nashville this
season ; that is ; f they can get boats to car
ry it all.
“ From Nashville,.! descended to Cum
berland riveF a steam boat, between
f wo ki’elhoats, the' Cherokee and Te.cum-
seh, (poor Indian names, that have rang
from Nickajack to Michilimackinac! now
doomed to hear the burthen of the
whites !) all three piled tin with cotton’, and
after getting below the Shoals, to Clarks
ville, thev s'nnped and took in 30 hales
more I left this boat at Smithfield, at
the mouth of Cumberland, where, th^re
was another large steam boat loaded with
cotton tor New Orleans. After seeing,
hearing, and dreaming of nothing hut ot-
fon for seventy days and seventy nights, I
began to anticipate relief. For on the
route I took, whether by night or by day
or by stage or by steam boat, wake up
when or, where you would, you were sore
to hear a dissertation on cotton. .One
night, in Mobile I was waked up about
two o’clock, bv two merchant’s clerks,
who slept in the same room, and were
just going to bed. They were talking of
Lottery Tickets ; and says one to the o-
ther, “ If you were to draw the 50,000
dollars Prize, what would you do with it ?
“ Do with it ?” says the other. “ why?”
would take 25,000 dollars of it and build
alavge, fire proof, brick store ; and with
the other 25,000 dollars I would fill it with
cotton, at 8A cents, the present prices, and
keep it till it rose to 17, and then I would
sell.” But this is only one item of a thou
sand. On the 16th of March, there came
a long a steam boat from Louisville, bound
to St. Louis, and I took niv passage in
her. She had not a bale of cotton on
boaid, nor did I hear it named more than
twice in 36 hours. We ran down the
Ohio to its mouth, thence up the Missis
sippi, and I had a pretty tolerable night’s
sle^p ; though I dreamed of cotton.—
Having business in Illinois, T left the
steam boat and walked three or four miles
to Kaskaskia. Here I went into a pub
lic-house, and, being somewhat fatigued
called for refreshment. They showed
me into a room by myself, and brought me
some hot coffee, warm beef-stakes, tfec.
and I felt so happy that I could not help
exclaiming, in the language of Shakespeare
‘Now is the winter of my discontent made
glorious summer,’ by my escaping from
the realms of cotton; bat I had scarcely
began to eat, when I heard a most terri
ble to do, in an adjoining room ; the noise
grew louder and louder, till, at last, the
door ot mv apartment was burst open
and iu came three men clenched together
“in a fight. “Cotton /” exclaims one, who
appeared the most in earnest, give up the
money!—I’ll have my money Cotton.—
You’ve cheated me (hitting Cotton at the
same timej Cotton\" I now laid down my
knife aud fork in a paroxism of dispair ;
and exclaimed with the poor little French
man, “ By Gar, here’s Monsieur Codon j
come agen !”
