Nothing in this essay is in tended to discourage any Southron en gaged in cotton planting, from persist ing in tho effort until fully and finally sat isfied of tho inexpediency or in\practaca- Lility of this branch of agriculture. In view of tho heavy tax already im posed Cta cotton, which would be into!* 'erablo but for tho present fictitious high price, and which may at any time be in creased to prohibitory rates, oven at present prices. And in view of tho tin- 1 certainly of tho unsolved problom of | Free Labor in The Sifutb, it is becoming f to our people to begin to consider tho i resources wo hate©, and to which we | in ay resort In tho course df oirr editorial effort* we shall probably bdvfc occtuflon to Con sider this question in many phases, and with reference to numerous subjects, in, Volving tho employment of labor no\v idle, the diversion of lubor and capital to manufactories and other enterprises and tho profitable production by agri cultural and horticultural pursuits, of eommodiliw, in the growth of which African or gang labor is not oisenfial. And wo propose'to open tho Bories by presenting the subject of “ Wlfto Grow ing ” in South-western Georgia.

This seems to ho nn en terprise open to any person who has a surplus acre of land, and one which promises tho greatest yield froln the least investment of capital, and tho least ex penditure of mntnicl labor. Tho season ii approaching when all who sco lit to ‘consider tho subject In Us application to their pecuniary interests, and to make experiments for tho ensuing year should begin preparations. Thero are some features of this sub Joct which must bo striking to every mind upon simple presentation. Ono of tho chief difficulties attending tho grow th of cotton is the forgo ofca of land which is required, demanding a largo invest, tnent of money capital to begin with.
