* E /ilracing a vieic of her Sugar, Cotton, and Tobacco
’ | Manufactories.
We venture to say there never was a time in
the affaire of a nation or a section ol our coun
;; try. when so much good could be realized by
1 1 a proper appreciation of its position —correct
, and thorough application of advantages to
; their legitimate bearings, as at the present
: moment, in the territory usually included in the
| term *“ Southern Interests. Ue speak
|of this section ofeouutry as the ‘ South but
j few. very few. of those interested, and even
: residents there, seem to understand or com
i prehend their groat and commanding powers
in point of manufactures, as compared with
| other sections oi the country, particularly the
North and East; nor do they sufficiently care
| to investigate and bring down to actual tan
gibility of action, those well defined and ful
ly settled principles of theoretical laws in the
production and consumption of which a -Yan
kee” would so soon earn brighter dollars and
: cents than ever came from the Government
’ mint ; because in the manufacture of Ids
j dunes, stock would be little and profits much.
’ We would that the present suicidal policy
l of almost the entire cotton, sugar and.
i *
ped ; anil however much we. a
may he pleased and gratified at the rnanuiac
-1 turing success of the North and East, and the
; very great profits accrued and fast accumula
| ting, yet as common philanthropists and pub
j lie journalists, we cannot refrain, in our public
way. from pointing out to those who are los
| ingin the game, the great detriment to them
: selves not oily in a pecuniary point, but
j also in a moral and social view, by their pres
ent wed settled and universally acknowl
edged mode of management. If is notorious
that nine-tenths of the great staples of cotton
sugar and tobacco, are sent Irom the South
in a raw state, to the North anil East, and to
Europe, for purposes of manufacture. We
need not stop here to inquire the extent ot loss
on the amount again returned in a manufac
tured state for which the Southern consumer
pays over two hundred per cent therefor nor
the lessening of all other interest in being
merely ‘ hewersof woodtand drawers ot water,
j Enough, that we know that the diversified
I labor, wealth and affluence of the North, does
I arise from profits in manufacturing good*
; from Southern raw material. Enough, that
j sugars in immense quantities are sent to the
j North at 2i to 5 cents and much and in a
! manufactured state, again returned tor con
sumption at 12 and T¢s, to say nothing
| of the amount used el-ewhere ; two thirds ot
the consumption price of which goes into the
j pock-is of the northern sugar refiners instead
of the planters and producers where of right,
it justly belongs. Why not? Is there any
! mysterious power or skill in its manufacture i
Does not the planter use greater skill tor less
| pay, in growing and putting into what we
j calfthe -raw state V Is there not sufficient
capital ?—then start your enterprize • I
! draw* both capital and skill. Every i nio oi
! political economy, as well as individual and
j national wealth demands it. Why then
j longer linger; continue to pay trunspor
j tation out and home ; storage, insurance, four
, or five mercantile slices in addition to manu
; facturer’s protits. All ill sand even more is
j true, in reference to the one great staple ot the
! South — Cotton —and one would suppose that
the question often asked. “ Should the Colton
! or the loom be removed ?” could be easi'y an
swered and the verdict be —the loom should go
to the cotton.
After applying to cotton, our remarks above
upon suoar which are equally applicable, and
it properly applied, would show a great de
| reliction of duty, and absolute and tanginle
loss of manufacturing profits ; just look at it m
i another point, and see how our remedy would
; avoid the said result. The lesser price of cot
! ton in 1848 and its profits compared with 1817
and previous years ought to strike terror into
I the hears of every planter and arouse him to
, action. Their relative prices are :
1848. 1847.

Middling fair ab\ ll|all*
Fair 6 a 6f 12j a 12£
Good fair nominal. 12 £ a 13§
Good and fine do. 13 a 15
These figures and we believe they are near
i ly correct show that the planters cannot but
I receive little, if any, over three-eights of vvlmt
| they did last year, while all of their expenses
; are the same. They undoubtedly in most
cases made calculations lasi year for equal
I expenses this year, and it will not do to say
they can yet pay the same for current and
I miscellaneous expenses, for they have not the
; means. Their crop has gone forward and
I outot their hands, as the following receipts at
J the seaports, and exported shows —
1848. 1847.
Received at seaports 2 012 210 1 651 520
j And total exports about 1,341,000 904.000
Thus it will be seen that the exports have
! increased 437.000 bales, or in other words,
j that much has gone earlier to market.
Now, although there is a large increase in
j stock, the amount received w.il be less than
one-half. Where then is a remedy against a
j farther extension or repetition of the evil ?
answer, nowhere, so long as Europe is your
j principal dependence, anil the North your
! props and gates. This subject has been turn
ed and twisted, so ved. and re-solved to get
rid of the active, energetic and laborious, toil
‘of a manufacturing people. It is of no use. —
The South should not and cannot longer tear
the (assumed or merely asserted) evils of man
- towns and villages. Their own
i salvation depends upon it. The revolutiou
-1 ary throes of Europe admonish you; and while
j amid the crash of manufacturing districts the
! tottering thron* sos dynasties, and the gener
al upheaving of capital, labor and skill, you
must look to and depend upon yourselves.—
j In future numbers we shall endeavor to ex
-1 tend our remarks in some tangible manner, as
! showing how this can be done and aceomplish
ied by the South without detriment to them
| selves otherwise, or injury to the North.—

Cotton Planters’ Convention.
The following very sound practical, com
-1 mon sense, remarks upon the subject of a
cotton planters’ convention, and tie tn.ai.s
suggested to elevate the price of cotton, are
Irom the Mobile Tribune:
“ We see in numbers of the Southern papers
various plans to improve the condition of the
cotton planters. One suggests that the pro
ducers who have capital should retain their
cotton—keep it out of market ; and thus the
stock on sale will be diminished, and of course, j
prices will rise. This seems to he a popular
theory with many, and they invoke a conven
tion of planters to do something in the premi- !
ses.
These notions are all futile. There is on
ly one way to improve the condition of the cot
ton planter, and that is simply, instead of keep
ing his crop out ol market, to cease producing
so much of it. The supply must be equal to
the demand to secure the raw material a re
nurnerative price. Planters may very readily
hold over their crops but the benefits gained
by such a policy would accrue to those who
sold. The stock held over must ultimately
come into market, and when it did the result
would be so much added to the current crop,
and thus the evil would only be aggravated, in
stead of being checked. But even suppose
VOL. XXVI—No. £6.
that all the planters lit Id over an average of
ten bales each. Every one then would for
the present get the advantage of the incren.-ed
price from the l-ssened quantity in market,
md away go prices down. down below the
level production of tile year.
Wc should bt gto amend this proposition
by suggesting that every planter, the* mo
ment lie gets his coito.i housed take one-fourth
of. it. carry it into an old field pile it up ns
high as In: can and then apply the torch to it.
This will servo the same purpose as the othi r
plan besides saving him tile trouble of ketjv
ing the worthless excess on hand.
But. to come back there is only one way to
meet this difficulty ami that is tor it very man
to plant less coMon. Instead of applying all
his force to this staple. let him take one-fourth
! of the hands usually given to its production
1 and put them to the raising of corn, wheat,
sugar, or in cotton factories—anv where but
lin the cotton field. All other remedies are
j merely expedients to stave off'the evil. Tims
will be n permanent remedy, the salutary cl
fects of which will very soon be seen iu the
i swelling coders of tike agriculturist.”

Dancing on a Chimney

great alarm ofi as .so! *d multitude, stood

Beware ol the Saw.
A hooie--, on a visit to Cinciimatti. a few
days ago called on business at a planing ma
chine establishment in the Third Ward.—
The planing detriment had not yet been
started but a small circular saw which was
set nearlv at the edge ot a bench and projec
ted a scant inch above its surface, wa in f’uil
blast. Mr. Green, as the booster na iy be cal
led looked around I ut finding nobody visible,
j concluded to seat himself oa the bench while
awaiting somebody's appearance. Neither
noticing nor mistrusting anything, he squat
ted plumb upon they saw—one spring nearly
j to the ceiling and a pitch forward to the Poor!
| indicated his astonishment at finding an inci.--
i ft of six inches in the length of his seat. His
cries brought assistance. Dr. Eaton closed
the flesh wound, and a skillful tailor that in

Peruvian Dark.
A modern traveller, alluding to the mode
in which the Peruvian bark is gathered, says
that in the nioiiilt of May. the Indians assem
ble and repair to tnc extensive cinchona woods.
One of the party climbs a high iree to obtain
it possible an uninterrupted view oi the for
est and to spy out the manchas or spots
: where there are groups of Peruvian bark
! trees.
The men who spy out the trees are called
| cateadores. or seacliers. It requires great ex
perience to single out of the dark leaf-cover
ed expanse, tne cinchona groups merely by
the peculiar tint of the foliage which often
differs very litt'e from that of the lu: retrying
trees. As soo iast .e cnteuiin e has .m ... a
out and correctly fixed upon the mamba he
descends to his companions, and leads them
with wonderful precision through the almost
[ impenetrable forest to the group. A hut is
i immediately buiit which serves as si resting
{ place during the night and is also used tor
preserving and drying the bark. The
tree is felled as near the root as possible,
divided into pieces each from three to tour

To take Ink out of Lniicn.
“ Take a piece of tallow, melt it. and dip
the spotted part ol the linen into the melted
tallow. It may then be was ed and the spots
j will disappear without injuring the linen.”
The above receipt is not correct, and we
I wish to correct it because it has had some cir
i dilation. The tallow will do no harm but it
will do as little goo 1. The best thing to take
ink stains out of linen is oxalic acid A few
crystals should be put on the stain, and
warm waiter poured oa them —m.knsga little
ki..u oi bag ia mu ~;o prevent ihe crys
tals being curried off’ but to allow them to
; dissolve on the spot. The acid looks like ep
som salts and is a poison—therefore shout 1
jbe kept out of the reach of children. The ac
id will also take stains out of furniture but it
will leave a yellow mark in mahogany. Frcrn
experience, ive can state positively that noth
ing can equal this acid for erasing iron spots

Husk lied*.
An exchange says the husking season is the
time to secure the best and most durable sort
of under-beds. All the inner husk of the corn
should be saved for this purpose. True it
takes a great many to make a bed, but when
once the sacx is tilled it is a bed tor lile, and
is the lightest and soltest thing of the kind
that any one could desire. Ti.e husks curl
up as they dry. and never mat dowa after
wards. Moreover, no insects ever lodge in
them, as vermin do in straw. They areper
iectly clean and being of strong and tough
texture, they will riot wear out for years. — Sci
