We briefly alluded a few days ago. to the new method of baling cotton by moans of iron hoops, instead o rope.— I We stated that wo knew-nothing of the practicability of the plan,but commend ed the process to the examination oi Planters. The a '.vantages claimed by this pro cess are as follows : First, time is saved, as the straps can be put in and fastened more rapidly than ropes, can be tied. .Second, the straps will hold the bale to within two inches of the size that the press makes it, while ropes stretch incontinently. Third, in compression for shipment, the straps can be met - readily reclasped than ropes can be tied, and they will hold the compressed bale to its size while with the rope-tics it expands twen ty-five or thirty pier cent, after it leaves the press. This will make a gain ot space to shippers that is important. To illustrate—A ship that has stowage for 4,000 bales, tied with ropes, can make room for 6,000 bales with iron straps. . uth the weight of the straps !•. each uulu is about eight and oue-haii to nine pounds, and can be furnished this year already painted, with hooks and clasps, at about two cents per pound less than rope ; of itself a very consid erable item to the planting inserest. Finally, the iron hoops are a protec tion against fire, for though it may burn tome on the outside, a bale of cotton cannot readily burn up until the ties ate broken and the air allowed to get to the mass of thecotton. Further information maybe obtained at the Warehouse of Messrs Busti.v & WiLi’ER, where a bale packed in this way may be seen. Anything that prem ises to advance the cotton interest is worthy of at least examination. Another Puzzle.

Mere abstract speculation upon the ' ! question whether the abolition of Afri j can slavery in the British West India : Island, has or has not resulted in pro -1 j moting the material prosperity of those j regions, is fast becoming to be superse- I ded by a series of practical facts, going i far to establish a striking decision in the negative. In cases of this kind, one - fact is better than a thousand theories, r The thousand theories with which Brit 1, ish and American abolitionists periodi cally favor us on tlie subject, to estab lish the delusion that the Emancipation I Act was a great blessing for the emanci pated and emancipators, are pretty sum marily set aside by the one hard fact s that the British and French govern i- ments, are at this moment, actually en deavoring to re-establish the slave trade in their respective West India colonics, one under the name of “ Coolie appren i- ticeship,” and the other under “Afri can emigration.” And what the gov ernments are doing, the preponderating public sentiment in both countries ap n parently sanctions. The leading Lon , ; don journals, on this subject, it is well , known, have enunciated views, within * the year or two past, which we are ac -- customed to look for only in the organs i le of public opinion in tbe slave States oil this Union. This so-called “ Coolie apl ! prenticeship,” we have often had occa-l e j sion to show,by disinterested witnesses, i.-l ,t to all intents and purposes, but a softei 1 name tor the African slave trade in it.-. . most odious features. j The voyage from Asia is often as full ' of horrors, and every imaginable species' i- of human suffering, as the terrible niid >f’ die passage from Africa ; the term ‘ap j ‘ prenticeship ’ is used to limit the pe-1 riod of service to a given number of - it is true; but when that givei i number of years have run their course n! the unhappy Cooly is so unfit to be any ; thing but a slave, that he is compeile \. i to remain one until death releases hii I from his earthly bondage. The r.eces B ! sity for thus having recourse to the ■- ; East Indies, to find a supply of labor fur :d the West Indies, is found in the fact | that the free negro of the Antilles has ' sucli a constitutional antipathy to in : dustry and habits of thrift, that he can| B : not bo made to develop the resources • j '■ | those mugniticant regions. Ho cann ■ b- be persuaded to labor but for iust ■ ough to enable him to supply his t- j wants from day to day; and nature, a -1 that climate, is so generous, that j exercise of but little industry is n,! ded with the most liberal returns. U'j v.onder, therefore, that so many gpk " ['■ did estates -which yielded princely r b venues when negro labor was compulso ry- are now going to wreck ami ruin.— - And no wonder that, with a view to ar rest that wreck and ruin, British and - French utilitarianism should after many years’ practical experiment of emancipation, be now trying to get the better of British and French sent imen a- taiism. 7 The French are less scrupulous about i- the proposed revival of the slave trade g than the British. Slavery, it will be n remembered, was suddenly abolished in > all the French colonics during the revo | lutionary fever of 1848. One of the first results was a heavy falling off in . the sugar crop. Use negro, intoxicated <d with “ Liberte, F.qualitc, Fraternite,” if | grew lazy, affected the gentleman of j elegant leisure, and would not work.— ”1111 1849-’3O, tlm Martinque crop fell r -j short of the average production some n I forty millions of pounds. To make up .. | for the indolence of the emancipated slaves, recourse was had to the Asiatic i (Coolie i slaves, and, with the introduc j tion of that species of labor, the agri cultural thrift of the island was, in a ~.good degree recovered. In 1862 the sugar crop yielded nearly fifty millions; '• v ]in 1866 nearly fifty-seven. The pro - gression in Guadaloupe was similar— e| the yield in 1860, nearly forty-six mil | lions. In the Island of Reunion (Bour * bon) the advance was from fifty-eight if millions of gounds in 1851, to a him ■ ll' d and sixteen millions in 1855. For the year 1856, the foreign commerce of I the ccfiony (the general movement) is | reported at a value of sixty millions ot n | fiance, —a 190 per cent, of increase in n! five years. Reunion replaces St. Do mingo : last March she had thirty-five ~ thousand Coolies in her employ. We it obtain these statistics from an article in lj i the latest number of Revue dcs Deux 1 Monies, warmly advocating the new t, j (slave) system. As might have been cl i foreseen, this Coolie trade was luit the II! entering wedge for the re-establishment ; e of African Slavery itself. Hence, some i- six years since, tire General Administia s tion of the French Antilles entered into if I a contract with a Marseilles firm. (known 'o as the General Maritime Company,) fin irjtlie introduction of fifteen thousand e | coolies in a period of four years. This ! contract had the full sanction of the o i Imperial Government, o Those four years have come and gone, is yet it seems not more than six thousand d have been delivered, and the failure to d procure the full supply atributed to the I- opposition of tim English authorities in India, which prohibited the recruiting -of coolies, except for the Isle rs Ueuu ti ion. and the exception was to be void nj unless the Antilles were relinquished.— u j In 1852, the French Government gave ej notice, if the interdict should becontin | ued, resort would be had to African im- I j migration. The government was as i good as its word. The French Govern ' ment steamer went to Whvdah, the s i principal slave port in the Bight of Ben _ l in, and endeavored to buy up a cargo of twelve hundred “ immigrants.” The s Spanish slave traders, however, with better business tact, and having an un restricted market to supply m Cuba, . bought up all the Africans brought to Whydah by the news of the French de mand, at prices which the French could ■ not afford to pay, and thus, while three , or four Spanish slave ships escaped with full cargos, the Frenchman was at last obliged to leave Whydah with only a ' single slave on board. After this failure the Stella proceeded ; to the river Gaboon ; but, as the coun | try there is toothinly inhabited to furn ish many slaves, the vessel made the j best of her way to Congo. But tlm Con- j sigo is a l’ortugnese possession, and the i Government of St. Paul de Luanda im mediately despatched a ship of war to ( worn the Stella against carrying on (lie r trade in the African possession of his j Majesty ; and, although the French Commodore arrived in a frigate t > sup port the Stella, so resolved were the Portuguese authorities that they sent 1 theii whole naval force into the Congo - to enforce the prohibition. The Stella has consequently been compelled to • re move out of the Portuguese limits in order to buy emigrants t hese opera 1 tions constitute the text for recent de nunciations in the British Parliament of the attempts of the French Uovein -1 ment to ve-open the African slave trade. It is difficult, however, o discover the B!!!?Sn?cA?<maH!^h<^!nmanjt^mT morality of the two systems are involv ed, between French and African “emi gration” and British Coolie “apprentice ship.” Practically, neither is percepti bly better than the “accursed traffic" carried on with less of hypocritical pre tence by the Spaniards in New England vessels, between the Coast of Africa and the Island of Cuba. We refer to the subject now,however, not so much to institute a comparison between these several systems, as to dc monstratc the fact that a revolution is going on in the European mind which bids fair to undo,ul timately, pretty much all that emancipation lias done, or been trying to do, in the Antilles these many years past. The free negro,then, England and France—in point of fact um confessing, is a humilating ‘failure;’ so ruinous a failure, indeed, that, to re form its effects, they are not unwilling now to re-open the slave trade —a thing which even the “ Pro-Slavery " govern - » v , f * / j: , % :;r,, A V'-f. ence to the wells.

' : Immense Claim Against the Russian Government Recovered. ■ 1 The Baltimore Patriot of Friday eve ning, sth inst.. says that Thomas Win * ans, Esq., of that city, has recovered a 1 claim of five miJli< ns of dollars against the Russian Government, which makes ! j his share of the proceeds from freight * and passenger travel over the railroads s of that country reach the sum of seven-' 1 ! teen millions drafts for which on the 1 banks of Europe have been brought on, * to him It appears that, in his contract with Russia, he was to receive a certain * percentage on all freight andpassen-l 1 ger travel, but it was thought by the ‘ government that they were exempted! * from this tax when applied to the trans -1 portation of soldiers to take part in the ■ war of the Crimea. He accordingly en- L gaged the services of John H. L 5. La ' trobe, Esq., who went on and recovered the claim by due course of law. and, on ' account of the many thousand soldiers i transported, his proportion was swollen i from twelve to seventeen millions. Mr. I Latrobe, we understand, received a fee * of ten thousand dollars a month, in ■ dependent of his expenses, and upon reaching Baltimore, and announcing . the result of his labors, was presented! 1 with a check for one hundred thousand > dollars. The very great wealth and li ' beiality of Mr. VVinans, renders him a t valued citizen of Baltimore. The Pa > triot says that lie has purchased a tract of land with water front at Canton,! I where, having received a contract from! the Russian Government, he will pro-! ■ need to the construction of a number of magnificent vessels of war. Mr. Winans is the gentleman who il ; luminated bis residence in Baltimore, when news was received of some good i fortune of the Russiaus during the Cri mean war; and it is certain that he had good reason to take interest in the welfare of Jiis friends.
