The colored Republic is about to collapso In December 1821, The American Colonizer tlon Society—Henry Clay President—estab lished this colony at Monrovia on the coast of Upper Guinea. Each settler was not only promised, but actually given, thirty acres of land and a mule. After an existence of fifty-four years—negro and mule both gone —the land—unimproved—alone remaining. By expansion of territory, including f om timo to time the native tribes adjoining, the young republic grew from a handful in 1821, to a population of 729,000 in 1868. A wonderful change however has taken place since that time, the native tribes arc in open revolt, whilst the British traders are d^ing a good business in furnishing the same arms and amunitiqn.

Editor Georgian: J find myself (speak ing for the average planters in this section) possessed of a ‘ gin-house, mules, ploughs, hone, and all the appliances of an average option plantation, with several hundred acres of wont land that will prodace, with out fertilisers, about 400 pounds of seed cotton, 10 bushels of born, 7 bushels of wheat and 12 bushels of oats, per acre. I see that the great cotton planters have been called upon by Col. Howard; to know what it costs them to make cotton. They estimate it from 9 to 16 cents, the average about II cents per pound, just about what the present crop will bring. I make my own supplies, and then all the cotton I can with my labor besides, and by doubling the product of cotton w th com mercial fertilizers, I make my labor cost me in making cot* on about half as much as it would without fertilizers Living 10 miles from the railroad, (sjieaking for the average farmer,) I sometimes have com to sell, but I find no one in tny neighborhood who wants to buy who has any money to pay for it, so I have to hall it to town. I nave to load by daylight and push my mules to make a load a day. I find that it costs me about 8400 to haul 82,000 worth of com to market, either in the cob or shelled, and sack it; while it costs me only about 825 to haul the same amount of cot ton. I find in making com, it injures my land, and leaves noihiug to aid the next crop. But when I make cotton, I sell the lint only, and have the seed left, every many now and some elegant church build ings'h.qd, been, buijt.

In order to divert the public attention from the “waysthat are dark,” which now characterize the present administration, the third-termers are in search of some foreign question to engage the interest of the Amer ican people. Party corruption and national profligacy were entirely lost right of in the recent State elections. The Currency question, Public Schools, etc., being the all absorb ing matters for consideration. Yet, the recent disclosures in regard to “ crooked whiskey” and other “frauds,” necessitate a new diversion in favor of the Republican leaders. Prompted by the same splendid chivalry which has been exhibited toward the un happy States of the South since the war, it is now proposed to interfere with the affairs of Spun, and dictate terms for the future government of Cuba. With King Althonzo and Don Carlos engaged in a civil war “ at home** and a “ rebellion” in progress in “the cvcr-faith- ful isle,” wo deem the present moment for American mediation manifestly inopor- tune. We wish no foreign complications, foreign interventions, or foreign annexations —we have already too much territory. The industrial and commercial interest* of Mas sachusetts and Texas, South Caro ina and CaKfonuftr are now; by far, too antagonistic to permit entire harmony between the States. Why then add another firebrand to out domestic peace t Let- “ Alph” an! “Carl’? settle their lit tle “unpleasantries” either by pen or sword, Libra,” let them fight it out by themselves. The N*w Yorit JBemld-nje that about a hundred thousan* ft bf these patriots are srettrired throughout’'the'United States, and lf.th* “robeljjsrmy” were thus rein forced, Cuba oofild; be easily wrenched froflft-tb* iron gfaip of Spain. If we must have fiVnr, let us war on the firmy of pub- charge the corn that the mules eat city rates, but at what we can make it on the farm. 1 can make corn at 25 cents a bushel, charging the plantation investment to cotton. Thun the actual value of the cotton seed (that is, what it will make as a fertilizer,) must be credited t the co ton. Then, the whole amount of the fertilizers must not be charged to cotton, but only half, as the Professor of Agriculture has clearly proven that they act well the sec ond and third years, showing a paramount improvement to the lands.
