To the Cotton Growers of
Georgia.
The Iron products of Pennsylvania are
annually $22,000,000.
employs a capital of $5,000,000. It
also gives employment and subsistence to
5,000 working -men and as many more wo
men and children.
The Cotton crop of Georgia is estimated
at $25,000,000.
The capital employed in Cotton-making
in Georgia, estimating 4 bales per hand, and
$lO per acre for the land, and other things
in proportion, is $50,000,000 for land, stock,
&c., $00,000,000 for negroes, making sllO,-
000.000.
This employs 125,000 negroes, besides
owners, overseers, &c.
The Iron crop of Pennsylvania annually
employing a capital of $5,000,000, and 5,000
men to work it, is nearly equal to the entire
crop of Cotton in Georgia; employing a
capital of $110,000,000 and 125,000 hands.
Cherokee Georgia has Iron resources equal
to Pennsylvania and physical resources to
develop them. If developed, Cherokee Geor
gia would make products nearly equal in
value to the Cotton products of the State.
W ithout a Railroad, it cannot be devel
oped. The difference to Georgia would be
millions of Iron products besides those of
the Farm, the Orchard, the Garden and the
Dairy, for export , where she now imports,
and pays for out of her Cotton crop. The
statesman who would anticipate the grand
spectacle, may sum up the items, fill out the
picture, and gaze with admiration.
The difference to the W. & A. Railroad,
would be, the addition of freights from a
Railroad traversing this Iron region of Eto-1
wah Valley, equal to all the way stations
besides put together. This is true, because
four miles of this Itoad, just completed, now
puts on and receives from the State Road,
more freights than is at any other Depot,
and as much as ten of the smaller Depots put
together. (See Dr. Lewis’s Report.)
Georgia now imports millions of dollars
worth of Iron tjnd Iron products; millions
also of products of the Farm, Orchard, Gar
den and Dairy. The Cotton pays for it.
Make the Iron, Steel, &c., at home, as
may be done, and she saves millions for in
vestment instead of spending it. She adds
to her taxable resources, instead of paying
tribute to others. She increases her popula
tion, and retains men who would leave her.
She multiplies strong arms and stout hearts
for her defense, instead of feeding and en
riching those who habitually abuse and re
vile her.
Without this policy, what has she in pros
pect but worn-out soil and decaying institu
tions ? Where are her means of defense ?
They are in Cotton bales and negroes. Their
lungs and their tongues—they are in pen,
ink and paper.
What is ner resort but submission uncon
ditional ? What nation or people ever did
otherwise than submit, who were fed and
clothed by others, and were even dependent
on their oppressors for their axes and hoes,
their plowshares and their pruning-hooks,
as well as their swords, their guns and their
powder? Who could fail to love and re
spect the land of the people who, in addition
to all this, sells us our beef, our hay, our
butter and cheese, our potatoes, onions and
cabbages ?
Would it not be wise to avail ourselves of
this amiable trait of human character and
afford it a chance for exercise towards our
mountain population ?
The Cotton planters may answer! A word
to the wise is sufficient.
The Statistics of Iron and its products
considered relatively in regard to tne South
and the North are equally interesting.
Virginia, North and South Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee and Arkan
sas, (suying nothing of the vast resources of
Texas,) have Iron Ore, equal in quality and
more abundant, than all the Northern States
together.
There are made In the United States,
about 800,000 tons of Iron, which costs the
consumers §60,000,000. This much, and
500,000 tons more of foreign Iron, is con
sumed in the U. S. A total of 1,300,000
tons consumed, at a cost to the consumer*
of §97,500,000. Os this, there 1* veinsumod
in the Southern Stftfos pearly one half,
$40,000,000 worth. They produce compar
atively b\it little, suppose §10,000,000 worth-
This leayes $30,0U0,U00 to he annually paid
her by the South for Iron, outdo by others.
Jt is paid out of the Cotton crop, directly
or indirectly.
The Cotton crop is equal to §160,000,000.
Os this §30,000,000 goes to pay for Iron.—
How much more is paid for hay, butter,
cheese, beef, apples, potatoes, pab.Uage&, on
ions, garden speda flower roots, the
merchants pap tell. And all of this is paid
bv the South, with better resources thuu the
North, serving to insure our dependence, to
make us love) respect and submit to the
North, whilst we feel anything but respect,
regard or interest in or for our mountains
and all that therein are.
Annually, for thirty year#, S^uth,
by its afthMueu and ladies, in
lUqir. richest eqstuine —hat in hand —called
pp the North, leaving their cards.
For thirty years these calls have not been
returned. Year after year we ring their
parlor bells and leave our visilipg pards.-
They print our cards apd utake our bells—
whilst we pay. lUa the cards and bells—and
itHj, ourselves. But the calls are not re
turned. What we get iu return every one
knows.
At home, if we call on a neighbor and he
does pot return it, self-respect forbids a
apepud C-all- For our Northern neighbors
we swallow our self-respect amt repeat the
call, and get our clothes and our food, our
offices and titles of Honor—on their own
terms.
If our Statesmen are wise, they will stim
ulate the products of our Farms, our Or
chards, Gardens and Dairies—if not of the
Iron and Mineral region. The Cotton
Planter is interested in these matters, and
will reflect. Respectfully,

The Hermit of the mountain.
Wilburn Waters, the hermit of Pond
Mountain, in the White Top regions of Vir
ginia, has killed four bears within the last
three weeks one of them exceedingly large.
The Abingdon Virginian says of this singu
lar man:
For more than twenty years he has lived
alone in the solitude of that vast mountain
region, devoting the time to hunting and
stock raising. He claims, we believe, to be
ahalfbreed qf the Catawba tribe,and is a man
of great physical power. He owns about
1,000 acres of land, and raises and sells large
numbers of cattle and hogs, and takes vast
quantities of wild honey. Although he lives
entirely alone, the latch string of his cabin
is always out, and nothing seems to be more
grateful to his feelings than the dispensation
of his hospitalities. But, poor man, he now
has no latch string or cabin. During a few
days’ absence four weeks ago, he returned
to find his home a bank of ashes, and all
hi hpuse contained cpagtuued- When
we were there last weeek, he had built a fire
upon the spot where his domicil stood and
we partook of his hospitalities upon a log in
the open air.
Since his residence upon the Pond Moun
tain he has captured 86 bears. 36 wolves, and
upwards of three hundred deer, and a count
less number of wild turkeys and the var
mints of the hills. He is 46 years old, has
lived about half that time at his present lo
cality, and has never been at Abingdon hut
twice, though only 30 miles from it.
The “ Little Giant” at IVlein
phis.
Stephen A. Douglas has paid a visit
to the city of Memphis, and delivered a
speech there on the 30th ult. The Mem
phis Bulletin gives the following synop
sis, embracing the most prominent points
in his speech:
Mr. Douglas commenced by express
ing his reluctance to address any audi
ence so soon, after so much labor and
excitement of that kind in his own State.
He would not have consented to do so
to-day, but for his desire to see whether
it would be tolerated in him to make the
same speeches here in Tennessee that he
had made in Illinois. He wanted to
know if democratic principles in Illinois
were democratic principles in Tennessee.
He would speak here precisely as he
had done in Illinois, and his audience
could decide whether he had defended the
Constitution and the rights of the States.
His opponent, Mr. Lincoln, had distinct
ly defined his principles in his first ad
dress to people. These were—
1. That a house divided against itself
cannot stand; that, therefore, these Uni
ted States must all become free or all
slaves.
2. That there must be a crusade against
the United States Supreme Court because
of the Dred Scott decision.
lie (Mr. Douglas) took ground, bold
ly, unhesitatingly and unequi\oca.ly,
against these positions. Again>t them
he brought to bear the great doctrine
that that the States have the right to
abolish or perpetuate slavery as they
please.
This question, together with ail ques
tions growing out of slavery, each State
must settle for itself, as had been done
in Illinois. While that State was in a
territorial condition, slavery had existed
there twelve years; at the end of that
time the people abolished it. “ I shall
not,” said Mr. D., “discuss before you,
fellow citizens of Tennessee, the reasons
why Illinois did this, because, with all
due respect, it is none of your business
If Tennesseans don’t like our policy in
Illinois, all they have to do is to stay
away, mind their own business, and let
us alone! Be assured we will do the
same by you. Work out your own sal
vation in your own way. If slavery be
a blessing, or be a curse, dispose of it
without interference fiom any one.”
In their crusade against the Dred Scott
decision the Black Republicans assert
that the Constitution has been viol ited,
because a black “citizen” of Massachu
setts or New York is not entitled to
“equal rights” with the white citizens of
Southern States, when going into those
States; when the truth is (said Mr.
Douglas) that this Government was made
by white men, for the posterity of white
men, and a negro ought never to be a citi
zen of a State, any more than a citizen
of the United Staes, as laid down in the
Dred Scott decision.
The doctrine of non-intervention on
the part of Congress should be stood up
to; if that is surrendered, and they give
up to Congress the duty of protecting
their slave property in the Territories,
they might as well confide a tender in
fant to the kind mercies of hungry bear.
Mr. Buchanan’s inaugural, expounded by
the Dred Scott decision, embodied the
true and safe doctrine. In whatever ter
ritory slaves were worth having, there
slaveholders would go and would be al
ways able to protect themselves by legal
ana constitutional means.
Non-action on the part of the legal
authorities amounts to exclusion. If the
local legislature refuse to pass laws
protecting this property, are you going
to force them? The truth is, wherever
slave labor is profitable, there it will be
protected by the local laws, and where it
is jiot, it will not be. If old Joshua
Giddings were to take a colony to the
sugar lands of Louisiana, he would soon
become one of the strongest pro-slavery
men in the South.
Many had said that they didn’t want
Cuba; he didn’t care whether they want
ed it or not, we must take it and can't
help it. We are bound to take it. Let
us be ready for it when it comes! Our
destiny is to increase and expann until
we beoome the greatest power on the
globe.
A Brother Slopes with a Brother’s
Wipe.— An instance of this rather usual cla3s
came to our knowledge yesterday. It seems
that two brothers named Campbell were re
siding in Washington county, Ilinois, the
elder being married, and the younger, Ed
win H., Single, The latter concluded to run
away with his brother’s wife, and the deser
ted husband soon after learning his loss, set
about tracing his absconded spouse and vil
lainous brother. He followed them through
Illinois to the Mississippi, and down that
stream to Memphis, where he has lost all
traces of the guilty pair and has well nigh
abandoned all hopes of ever finding his lost
wife again. On arriving in this city, Mr.
Campbell learned that the parties had been
here, but left for parts unknown three days
before his appearance, and as yet has been
utterly unable to ascertain the least clue as
to the direction they took on leaving Mem
phis. Mr. Campbell returned yesterday to hi *
home in Illinois, from whence he had been
forced by this almost unheard yf develop
ment of the depravity of human nature.
[Memphis Bulletin, Nov. 30.
Doctor's Degrees. —Some years ago. the
University of St Andrew’s, one of the most
famous in Scotland, having rather a lean
treasury, resolved to replenish it by anew
branch of commerce, and announced that it
would sell its Doctors’ Degrees at £2O a.
piece. Many took advantages of this liberal
offer; and, among the rest, a certain minister
who thought his services would be more ac
ceptable to his flock were he possessed of a
handle to his name, put the required sum in
his purse, and went up to St Andrew's to
purchase the conveted honor. A man ser
servant accompanied him, and was present
when his master, having previously footed
the bill, was formally presented with the of
ficial parchment. On his return home, the
new doctor sent for his servant and address
ed him as follows: “Noo, Sandy, ye’ll aye
be sure to ca’ me’ the doctor; and gin any
body spiers at ye about me, ye'll by aye
sure to say the doctor’s in his stody, or, en
gaged, or, the doctor will see ye in a crack
as the case may be.” “That a’ depends,’ re
plied Sandy, ‘on whether ye ca’ me the doc
tor too.’ The reverend doctor started.
‘Aye, it’s just so,’ continued the other; “for
wheu I foond it cost so little, I e’en got a
diploma myself. Sae ye’ll just be good e
nough to say, ‘Doctor, put on some coals;’
or, ‘doctor, bring me the whiskey.’ And
gin anybody spiers at ye about me, ye’ll aye
be sure to say, the doctor’s in the pantry,
or, the doctor’s in the stable, or, the doctor’s
digging potatoes, as the case may be.”
American Educator.
Too Appropriate a Text. —A good sto
ry was told us lately, of a popular preacher
in the town of H in Pennsylvania, which
we shall take the liberty of ].inducing. It
appears the minister lm-i< t, wedded to a
most worthy lady, wo. -e first gift v ;is a
dowry of ten thousand dollar?, with the
promise of as much more upon tli decease
of her invalid parent. Shortly after mar
riage, while occupying the pulpit he chanced
to give out a hymn, the fifth verse of which
commenced,
“Forever let my grateful heart.”
His words paused—he coughed slightly—
then adding: “ The choir will omit the fifth
verse,” sat down with something like a ner
vous haste. With curiosty excited at this
conduct of their minister the congregation
smiled some as they read :
“Forever let my grateful heart
His boundless grace adore,
W hich gives ten thousand blessings now,
And bids me hope for more.”
French Importation of He groes
M. Gaillardet, Paris correspondent of the
Courier dcs Etata- Unis, in a letter of the
4th inst., hold the following language
upon this subject:
The Paris Presse maintains that it will be
to the interest of the French colonies to con
tinue the importation of negroes, and that,
for the latter such change of condition will
be both a moral and material progress. It
cites some very instructive facts drawn from
an interesting work published by M. Lepel
letier de St. Remv, on the 6tate of the
French colonies since the abolition of Slave
ry. It seems that the French Government
has only decided to permit the importation
of bound Africans, because England has
prevented her recruiting laborers in India.
England has only herself to blame therefore,
if the French marine seeks Africans instead
of Asiatics. Whut is more curious is the
fact that this idea of the emigration of ne
groes is an English idea. It was conceived
at first by M. Allen, an English naval offi
cer, a fervent abolitionist; it was taken up
next by Sir MacGregor Laird, President of
the Abolition Society of Glasgow. At that
time, Lord Stanley, now Earl Derby, made
but the slight objection to this project that
the moment had not yet come, to consider the
question of a plan for the recruit of the col
onies. Finally in 1846, M. Qume proposed
to Parliament, the abolition of cruising and
the organization of a vast system of redemp
tion and transportation of blacks, whose con
currence would crush the trade where it pre
vailed. To this Sir Robert Peel, added :
Give all the encouragement in your power
to the immigration of laborers, and disre
gard imputations which you know are not
well founded.”
This authoritative counsel of Sir Robert
Peel to the Parliament of Great Britain, is
the best response which France can make to
her present detractors in England and else
where. Her right is evident, and striking,
and she will do well to maintain it before
all the world.
M. Gaillardet proceeds to express his
doubts whether this right has been exercised
with discernment and necessary precaution,
and seems inclined to dissent from the opin
ion expressed by the Pays and the Patrie,
that the French Government will persevere
in the enterprise.

How to Preserve Women.
We clip from one of our exchanges the
| following receipt for the preservation of the
fair sex, which may interest our readers :
There is nothing in the world we think *r
m ich of as wh do of women. o*ir mother
is \ woman—wife, sisters and pretty coo- n?
ai ; women ; and the daughters will •> , f
(Heaven spare them !) they live long en<> .(.*.
And there is a love of women ia general,
which we will not deny. A fine, magnfinent
specimen of the sex, full of life and health,
a ripe red cheek and Hashing eye, is some
thin? that does one good to look at aa she
illuminates the humdrum side-walks, and
ev*ry day streets. A North R ver steamer,
wider fall headway, v th color flying, is
rather a pretty s'ght—re*atr nriug and in
spiring, and we pull up oar tired nag to see
her pass, and admire the swell she cuts.—
Comparatively, however, the steamer sinks
into insignificance, or rorae other deep wa
ter, by the side of a well kept, well dressed
woman. There is no rubbing it out; wo
men are the ornament, charm, blessing, beau
ty, and bliss of life—(man’s life, we mean, of
course.) Any means that can be devised for
preserving them should be publicly made
known. They are different from any other
kind of fruit. You cannot pickle them. You
cannot do them up in sugar and set them in
a cold room, with a paper soaked in brandy
over their mouths. You cannot put them
hi cans and seal them up air tight, without
injuring their form and flavor. Now, as men
are so dependent upon women for life’s
choicest blessings, a proper mode for pre
serving them becomes of great moment, and
we are sure the public will thank us for an
infallible recipe.
Have the feet well protected, then pay the
next attention to the chest The chest is the
repository of the vital organa There abides
the heart and lungs. It is from the impres
sions made upon these organs through the
skin that the shiver comes. It is nature’s
quake—the alarm bell at the onset of dan
ger. A woman never shivers from the effect
of cold upon her limbs, or hands or head;
but let the cold s ? ike through her clothing
on her cl • i off goes her teeth into a
ehn ter, a.. whole organism is in a com
motion. One sudden and severe impression
of cold np<in the chest has slain its tens of
thousands. Therefore, while the feet f,re
well looked after, never forget the chest.—
These points attended to, the natural con
nections of the d' ess will supply the rest,
and the woman is ready for the air. Now
let her visit her neighbor-, go shopping, call
upon the poor, and wa!k lor the good it, ioi
the fun of it.
Keep away from the stove or register.—
Air that is dry or burnt, mors or less charged
with the gasses evolved by the fuel, is poi
son. Go up stairs and make the bed with
mittens on. Fly around like mad, and ven
tilate the rooms. Don't set pent np in a sin
gle room with double windows. Fruit will
not retain its full form and flavor in air tight
cans; neither will women. They need air.
If a shiver comes on during these operations,
go directly and put on somethiug more about
the chest.
Again, do not live in dark rooms. Tight
fades the carpet, but it feeds the flowers. No
living animal or vegetable can enjoy health
in darkness. Light is also as necessary as
air, and a brown tan is far preferable even as
a matter of beauty, to a sickly paleness of
complexion.
This much in regard to the physical means
of preservation. There are moral means on
portant Every woman should be married
te an excellent man. Marriage, it is true,
brings care and wear, but it is the ring that
is worn that keeps bright, and the watch
that lies still and unwound gets out of order.
The sweet sympathy evolv.-d by new respon
sibilities, the new coinp -ri-ep ?• f.>r nil out
lays of strength, brings afc it a ue.ightful
play of the heart aud im< .. and produces
re-action upon the body, winch is nothing
less than preservation. Then, there is a high
er moral power than tbi-s—one wh ch we
speak of soberly and honestly. No on
completely armed against the eneroachiog
ills of life who has no place in the heart for
religion. The calmness, the patience and the
joy and hope that are in the possession of
that woman whose heart is right in the high
est relation, can never fail to he ghten •very
personal power and charm she possesses.
There 1 you have the reeipe. Some of it
. in sportive form, but it is not the leas ao
- truth. It has within it the cure for many
ideate—the preventive for more. It miv t
>e made longer; but when we see its pr..
scriptions universally adopted, it will hr t me
to bring forward the remainder.
Emigration to Arkansas.—The editor of
the Fort Smith Herald acknowledges the
recipt of numerous letters, making inquiry
in regard to the character and price of tin
lands near that place. The editor replies to
a letter from Mr. J. P. Dijnla?, 0 t Paris,
Tenn,as follows:
“We will answer the inquiries of Mr. Dun
lap by saying that Congre-s passed a law a few
years ago graduating the price of public hinds
to actual settlers, in every State where the
General Government owns land, and these
prices are graduated, not according to the
quality of the lands, but according to the
length of time the bo <ls have been in market.
This aw affects nil the public lands in Ar
kansas; and there are millions of acres unsold,
j and the price- are graded fron 12J cents up
ito 75 cents tier -re, and an actual settler
• car. ;vciw: rich land in many places as low
12f$ cent- ;*ur acre. These lands are being
.-Ti.Vi > al over the State very fast AU a
- to do in to find the land that will
suit ciiii. .nd erti.- on i* and pay Whatever
it is worth, ir. accordance with the law
stave alluded to. There are land office* in
the State, open ail the time lor entries.
The best route for travel from Tennessee,
