Tlnrdl), that il a speculator, and interested, that Ins esiim te io ns extreme, did not ullVct his inteiest, (be ing too short) mikI if interes’ed, should be ri pen and bold to maintain his opinions ; for a mong long crop, and disinter*stud writers, we find them Imhl to sustain a crop of 1G50,(J00, in the f.ice of the best evidence that can Ik- piotluccd to the contrary, und yet they do not think they impair llieir interests or luz.rd their reputation, neither cure they fur being culled speculators. I now will he open and candid, fearless of wlai most col I nn dealers hic, viz : English in fluence, Rank lavor, and long crop statistics, ond give Augusta a fair oppoi liinily of correct ing bis esiimuics, by fair and open argument. The time lias arrived, when we, us Ameri can dealers need nut bar Rank influence nor public opinion. Rut I will say what we may tear, viz. our foreign agents, with some few exception*. I will merely refer hack a few abort month*, in put us in rcmciiihra.,cc. In IH->r. tlie great revulsion took place, an I some lew may r* member it. When the great Ma ple ol ihc United States was ufi'ected lo nc:;r- I) the extent ol about 00 per cent, in decline —wt.cn lire bunking institutions of ntir count rv wi re compelled to suspend spec ie puynn nts— when every energy of the Americans was plying to save llieir credit, reputation and property,—when commerce its various and numerous channels, was checked, ui.d mir geo- al ruin seemed to hang like uii incubus over the whole opcitoinns o! Irailt’—when the tug of war was ut bund. Then it was, that you might value character by specie s'umlur.'t and whilst we were agmuzmg und struggling to Mtuttd against the storm* I ask where were our funds? Mr. Riddle, (I am proud to acknow ledge him the benefactor of our country,) moved in the storm and calmed the tempest— sustained tlie American character—placed Unde ill i's proper channel—compelled Great Britain to pay something near the value nf our staples—exulted men and properly of all descriptions--sustained tottering W.mks— gave a healthful currency —sent agents abroad to manege our produce—raised the value of the gre.t staphs of the country 100 per 0 tit, und that in a lew short months. It may be ttske I bail lie no opposition—was lie sustained by foreign help? I mply.opposition from within, lor hia greatest enemies were those of Ins own lunittcliuhl; and the fore go help, I] will eu- d uvur tu enumerate. After bis ugems were located, the Bank of England, and all the sin- viv’lng houses commenced the crusade against luid. Circulars Irnm some of the few houses thut stood the shock, were forwarded to this country, declining in make advances on pin- •luce (llie great staple more parti* ultirl)) un less 1 hey, the wrileis, were penniitcdito sell (be produce to meet the lulls, to value, uml class, and control. With such conditions, they were prepared to advance 4 cents per lb. on fair cotton. Such was tlie style und tune ol our foreign agents, when Mr. Biddle took lo baud our cause, lie arranged from Ihc fur Rest lo the extreme Smith, shipped their produce, negneiuled their exchanges, und in one short year, and thut without preeidetil during commercial pros!ration, gave us a place among the nations ol the earth. It may lie asked again, how has lie succeed ed in 'his magnanimous uitti stupendous tin. dertaknig, 1 will a .s.ver for him, his enemies being ju.tges. The American character Mauds higher aln nail than it ever did —produce is as high as at any tune,or nearly so, before the re vuisom—our fanners are out of debt—our merchants are again waging a good w.uf.111:— our Gollon crop bus exceeded every tiling ever known pievimis. Iu 1837, say 1800.00(3 hales repotted that year; prices have risen from 7 cts. to 17 cts, Mr. Biddle has retired from the contest with more glory than ever encircled the brow of Bonaparte » and the pei pie, independent of Mr, Uuldle, who was the great bugbear, are prosperous witliuus comparison, and with the present cotton crop (1838) of nearly 140,000 bales, and we are content with believing it. Without foreign sol, pressed by all the monied institutions ol the con dry, and paying 16J to 17 cents lot- Liverpool fair Cotton, that would not nett in December last, lo cents, and ut presenttnot exi ceding 8|d, and with thia state of thing* cotton is daily advancing. It may be said ol my estimate, that I am interested. I will an. surer, and s .y. I am 1 «'»> those who estimate the crop ut 1650 to 1700,000, only wish to be so. I lierelm-e there is no difference 1 and I predict, with a crop of 14J,000 bales, that be fore the first of July, fait* cotton will be consi dered cheap nt 12d • *nd by individuals that though 1 it dangerous at 12 cents.

AUGUSTA. TllE MAINE QUESTION. We find the following iu the Boston Couri er of Hie 23d ult. which is the latest on tins subject: The Portland Advertiser of Thursday (21st Fell.) has tlie following letter from ils^urres ponden 1 , dated Augusta, Wednesday evening. 10 o'c.uck — Col'inel Rogers and Mr. McGuire, our ab ducted Laud Agent, has just arrived.

In addition 10 the above, we learn (says llie Advertiser) from a passenger 111 the 1 o’clock stage, that Mr. Rogers, the bearer of Gover nor Fait field's letter'O Sir John Harvey, re turn* with toe three following propositions from the latter: 1st Tlml the Provincial Laud Agent, Mr. Mcl.uughhn, he released on the smite terms that Mr. Mciutire was released 2d.
