EAST INDIA AND AMERICAN COTTON.
Readers interested in tbe subject may remem
her that on Monday last we published an abstract
of a report tu the Engli-h Asiatic Society, in which
tbe writer endeavoured to show the obligation on
the part of England to obtain her supply of Cotton
entirely from the East Indie*, end tbe practicability
of the scheme. An intelligent correspondent, who
has resided several years in India, and hat made tho
subject his particular study, sets forth in the fol
lowing paper an opposite view of ilia matter, and
we should bespeak for his lucid statements and ex
cellent remarks an attentive perusal.
Tnr.CLF.nx and thi Butter Woman.—Yester
day afternoon, at a cLrk, of our maiket, was trav
elling around investigating tiie weight of butter, he
came across an old lady, whose reluctance to din-

It' was awfully deficient. He tried another, It wnT

lady's face elongating at each successive failure
about 11 a feet" •• Mister," said she, 44 if you take
any more nf my butter, you'll get in trouble, I gue-s,"
Nothing daunted by her threat, he continued; when
enraged beyond endurance, tho old lady, a strong,
muscular woman, 44 yoked" him, and after a seveie
tus*|e, during which victory seemed to lean alter
nately on both belligerents, and a crowd of amused
spectators gathered around them, the finally threw
him, and taking from him the lump of butter he
■till held in his hand, she smeared it all over hit faco.
filling his eyes, ears, mouth, and nostrils, full al
most to suffocation.—Then springing upon her feet,
she plunged her hand* into her bulurlul), and mash
ing the lumps completely up Into one unctious mats,

In your paper of yesterdny yon call the attention
of your readers to somo statements of a ariter for
the Asiatic Society's Journal, on the C -tton Trade
of India, which appearing in many points incorrect,
and peculirly inopportune at tho presont moment,
when from speculation on this tide tlio Atlantic and
derangement in tho monetary affair* of England, our
grant staple has rapidly fallen in valuo. I take the
liberty of handing you a few remarks on the subject,
which I muy premise by stating that my informa
tion is derived from persons long engaged in the
Cotton trade in India, from official documents, nnd
from personal observation during a tour through
Bundelcund and the Coab, tho Cotton districts in
the north-west part of Hindnstun.
In discussing tho probability of Indian Cotton
taking the place of Am-rican in tho manufactures
of Great Britain, there are three points tube taken
into view
1st. The ability of India to produce the ounntity
required.
2d To produce It at a price as low or lower than
other growers; anti
3d. To produce it of a quality equal or superior
to other cottons.
.1st As regards the possibility of India supplying
400,000,000 lbs of cotton to Great Britain, I believe
most persons acquainted with the cultivation in In
dia look upon it os quite en*y of nccnmrdi*hmcnl.
Tha erop of the cut ton districts oft he north of India,
J* estimated to average in the neighborhood of 2,-
^P0,000 Bazar mnund*, or 196,000,000 lbs, ofwh'ch
• njfcut 400,000 Bazar mnunds, are exported, 1-uving
fotf consumption, 164,000,000 lbs. for a population
of 60,000,000, or 2 2-3 lbs cotton per annum for
each inhabitant, in ndditinn to the British manufac
tures imported. Tho cotton di*tricts of Bomlmy
and Matins* though not so thickly populated, ex
port more larg.-ly than those of the Bengal Presi
dency. Wewll therefore suppose the quantity
grown in them the *ame as named above; and we
shall then have, for the total cotton crop of India,
500,400,000 lbs, of which abnut 10,000,000 ll>* are
exported annually, as perfollowingmemnrandum of

der given on the 4th day of July, 1039.
44 Within tho Inet two year*, under the auspices
of the remarkable man who preside* over the desti
nies of the confederacy, with a grace nnd dignity
worthy his exulted station, they nave undoubtedly,
in all tho great questions which have arisen, been
true to tho principles of the Republican purly; and
it were base ingratitude, not to acknowledge the
noble stand they havo taken throughout all the
Northern States, iu defence of our peculiar institu
tions. In the messages of the President of tho
United State*—in the address of the Democratic
members of Congress—in the great measure of an
Independent Treasury—and in the report of the
Committee of Ways and Mean* on the state of the
finance*, I have seen every thing to approve; and
the records of Congress will show, whether 1 have
given to tho Administration a cold nnd reluctant
support. Frankly, freely, cordially, in the van, I
have sustained with all my abilities almost every
leading measure it hn* proposed."

Andtiikuoutiuok atCoburo.—We some time
alnco noticed an outrage committed nt Coburg, by
certain inhabitants of that plaoo, against an assem
blage of raformor*.
Wo now lonrn from Capt. Gaskin, of tbo steam
boat Hamilton, that on Sunday night, lust, a party
of some 50 or 100 mun, heavily armed, were landed
from n schooner, a few milos below Coburg, ap<J
had marched up to near the villuge, when tbe^
wore mot by a purly who had hoard of their ap
proach, in tacked and driven back—six of their num
ber having been taken prisoner*.
The*o persons, Capt. G. informs us, were on
their trial, when he passed yesterday.
Wo Imvu not huiutl that any live* were lust.
Since tho above was written wa have been fa
voured with tho fulluwing extract of a letter from a
fjentlcmuu iu Cuburg, to hit friend in this city
• COBURG, July 29th.
44 SVo have got James Hart, Luke and Luke's
bruthor--n law and,father-in-law,'also three siren-
gor*, snug In jail. They had laid a plot to murder
tho Boultons nnd U. Henry, and rob tho bank, but
were brought out by a man by the name of Moon,
who was to havo been their leidor. A man by the
name of Lott, and ono other made their escape.
" If they are not hanged, they all be lynched
If they hud comm tied the murders intended, 1
would not have given three cent* for the hides of all
tho Americans in Coburg."
Tbo Han mentioned abnvr formerly edited a re
form paper nt Coburg, and is now editor of the
Lewiston Telegraph. Lott is accused of huving
killed Capt. Usher, of Chippewa.
Capt. (iaskin further inform* u* that there were
four sir five parties of them, from ten to twen y in
each unity—that none of the parties, save that men
tioned in the above extract, were taken—that it
wa* supposed that they were secreted buck of Co
burg—that immediately after the party was landed
the schooner made off—and that doable centrie* are
placed along the whole frontier, to prevent the
escape of the marauders. Great excitement of
course prevailed.—Rocket'er Democrat.
We hare received but a few of our Upper Canada
paper* thi* morning—not one from Coburg—and
thoso who havo furnish scarcely any additional par
ticular* of the affair above mentioned. The name of
the oilier two men arrested i* Ash; they are father
und son, nnd live near Coburg. Luke is the son-in-
law of tho elder Ash. The statement of the Ro
chester Democrat, that there was n party of some
50 or 100 men, is no doubt n great exaggeration.—
A letter in the Kingston Chronicle, say* that the
party consisted of Lett, Hart, and soveral other*.
The capture wa* made at the home of Ash. It doe*
not appear that tho prisoner* had committed any
felony or violence, but they were arrested on infor
mation of what they wore going to do. The letter
nj je Chronicle say* they wore heavily armed.
Tho number that escaped wn* supposed to b* only
two, nnd hot pursuit wa* made for them. Tlio let
ter says nothing about tho 44 four or five parties, from
ten to twenty in each," mentionod by Captain

A correspon lent ofthe New YorkG*xette, states
tho following anecdote of General Washington:'
^ One Reuben Rousy, of Virginia, owed the Gem
•I abnut ona thousand pound*. Whilo Prosidjm
ortho United States, ono of his agents brought an
action for the money—judgment was obtained,
and an execution issued against the body of R., who
wa* taken to jail. He had considerable landed es
tate, but this kind of property could not, at that tima,
bo sold in Virginia, unless with thu discretion ofthe
person. He had a large family, and for the sake of
hit children preferred lying in prison to lulling his
land. A friend hinted to him thut probably Gen
eral Washington did not know any thing of the
proceeding, and that it might be well to send him
a |«lltion, with a statement of the circumtiance*.
He did so, and the very next muil from Philadelphia
after tho arrival of his petition id that city, brought
him an order for his immediate release, together
with a fall discharge, and a severe reprimand to
the agent for hiving acted in such a manner. Poor
Runty was consequently restored to hi* family who
never laid d«*wu ihtdr heads at night without first
presenting prayer* to heaven for thuir beloved Wash
ington. Prav idonco smiled upon the labors of tho
grateful family, and in a few years be enjoyed the
•vmUite pleasure of being able to lay the money
with interest at the feet of Washington. That truly
great man reminded him that the debt was cancelled.
Konxy replied thut the debt of hit family to the
father of hit country, an.l ihe preserver nt their par
ent, could never be dit<-biirged;and ttte General, to
avoid the pleasing importunity ofthe greutful Vir
ginian. who would n *t be denied, accepted the mo-
ney.onl/to divide it not mg Ronzy’* children, which
he did immediately.
Canada.—A letter addressed to the Rochester
Democrat, state* that eleven prisoners taken nt
Windmill Point last fall, have received a full pardon
from the Lieutenant Governor of tha upper province.
The name* and residences of the prisoners, two of
whom are Frenchmen, and two Americans, are given
as follows: Oliver Lnwton, Auburn; Samuel Liring-
•ton, Liston; Edgar Roger*, Watertown; John M.
Jones, Philadelphia, Jefferson, Co; Gaines Powers,
Doxten John Graves, Grand Island, Vt.; David
Del*field, Oswego? Levi Chapman, Morristown;
Truman Chapman, do; Baptist Ra*a, Mortrealj
Klonzo Mayott, Hosseau, St. Lawrence Co.
It is the general impression that all of the prison
ers et the Fort, at Kingston, to the number of seven-
by, will soon be set at lilwrty, provided no dittur-
tauce occur* in tint moan time on the frontier.
Fortonr or an Emiorant.—We find tho fol
lowing in a late Now York paper, every word of
which is true :—
“ Among the passengnrs who left New York for
England, in the Great Western, we perceive the
name «f Mr. Francis Hall, nne of the editors of the
Commercial Advertiser. Tbe history of that gen
tleman's career ia en admirable exemplification of
tho reward which sterling merit end peraevering in
dustry are sure to obtain in this country. He came
to America when a bovof 15 year* of age, a steer-
nga passenger, and obtained employment n* a car.
risr boy or the Advertiser. From tint Halloa be
wasfromoted to the oflfee of 4 packer.' Next ba
became clerk, end afterwards pan proprietor of tbe
an independent fortune. The exile who came to
America a poor boy la the steerage of a packet ship,
returns to bia native Und in tbe luxurious cabin of
a steam ship, with honors and wealth acquired by
bis own industry."
Hon. Eau India Company for tbe purchase at cot*
ion,that all hi* attempt* to ImprovepaimaneaUvtba
quality ofthe article bad failed, owing probably to
•oil and climate.
The first yeare growth will generally produce
good cotton where America* seed It sown, but it
rapidly deteriorates in snccesrding years, very toon
is no lietter than tho cotton ofthocountry.
This gentleman has used gfeat exertions to deen
his cotton thoroughly, and had even imported two
American cotton gin*, which, however Im did not
find to nnswer,aad returned to the old mode of pick-
ing by hand.
If cotton of tbe description named In tbe article
we qujiie from, is really grown in any merchantable
quamiry, It it truly marvellous that a cotton factory
at Budge Budge, 15 miles below Calcutta Oft the
Houghly, should import taw cotton from the United
State* to spin into yarn for the consumption of the
cunntry. Vet tbit ha* twice been dune within* few
year* past.
To conclude, I would quote from Mr. Montgome
ry Martin’* “History of the British Colon le*"
(and he it the warmest champion they have) still
further to prove the hopvlc*«nets of India ever
competing with America in her Cotton trad*. He
say* 44 cotton well deserves attention, were it only
lur the imoortant circumstance* thut our chief
branch of trade is most totally dependent on a rival
(ami with provocation,) perhaps a hostile state."
44 It we can be made independent of Fiance and
America for Indigo nnd Silk, to enn we become al
so of Cotton, India producing in itself every varie-
ty."
44 Tfthe Into duty hud been kept on American raw
Cuttnn, sufficient encouragement would bave been
given to the Hindoo to attend to its* cultivation, as
it is, wo have not only mined the India manufactu
rer. but in return have.. ff-red no encouragement to
tin* raw producer. The Cotton grower in India
ought to be stimulated to grentereffort*."
We admire the frieadly feeling here expressed,
towurd* Americn, us well as the wisdom displayed
in lire proposition to levy a duty un our Cotton; and
wo presume the writer first referred to, entertains
sentiments and npiniun9 similar to Mr. Martin’s.
Fortunately for Great Britain, she has those to
preside over her who know the importance of her
Cotton manufactures, and who would scarce com
mit thu suicidal act of levying a duty on American
Cotton when they every year find it more and more
difficult to compete with the manufacturers on the
Cuutiuent. The writer of the abuvo has not, nor
ever hud a bule of Cotton; hi* remarks may be
therefore considered disinterested, save so far as
the common welfare of hi* country is concerned.
If wo nre to hive any rival in the Colton trade, it
appears much more probable U will be in Egypt
than India.

" We cannot at present lay our hand* on state
ment* of export* of cotton from Madras tu Chinn,
but they generally somewhat exceed ihuse of Cal
cutta.
If the above estimate be nearly correct, India nt
present produces almost as much cotton a* is grown
in the United States, and with her dense population
could double ortreblo it, where a mnrkot found for
it. The cotton crop of ihe U. States, may he cati
mated at 1,600,000 bales ouch 400 lb*, total 640.-
000,000 lb*.
I. We next proceed to consider the cost of pro
duction. This is a point nlwny* difficult to arrive
at withanygrestdegree of a-curncy, as n favorable
or unfavorable season may vary it 50 or 100 per c».;
hut in general the price in & favorable season muy
be Liken u* little more than th* average cost of pro
duction. For Bengal cotten of medium quality 12
Sicca rupees per Bazar maund of 02 lbs mny be
considered nn average price in Calcutta. Nor is
this article subject to so great a depreciation from
thu dull state of foreign markets ns most other* ex
ported, owing to the large proportion consumed in
thecuun'ry. A/tho rate above named, (exchange
on England bam| Is 4 i per Sicca rupeo.) it would
cost on board aqitiabout 5d per lb, or at a freight of
5 lb per ton Of. M 4 .cubic feet containing 1500 lbs
screwed cotton, WM ca»r landed in Euglund would
be 5d 4-5ths.
The average price of Uplands in England may he
btoted at 8d pet lb, which, with an nvornge crop
would remunerate tho planter. The average price
of Calcutta cotton of tho description referred to i*
about 5d. 11
We therefore infer that comparing the qunliitri
and coat ofth^' product ion of the two articles togeth
er, the Englikhcnnsumorcnnsldcr American cotton
the cheaper. j-And he must have strange ideas of
trade who cap suppose that the Indiun merchants
would let a trade of such magnitude slip through
their fingersfould they produce the article at a low
er relative co|t than their American rival*.
The writer you quote, says very truly, that “the
Indian cotton brought to tho English market is bad
ly cleansed and carole-sly picked," which hn attri
butes to the “excessively low piira of wages,"
Does he mean to say that the wage} nf those cm
ployed in the cotton fields nre lower than those of
other agricultural pursuits? or duct ho spnnk ofthe
wage* commonly P»M in India? If the former, his
statement is incorrect; if the latter, it means,nothing
but that ha must wait far tho moral and political
movements of India, before he can bring her cotton
Into competition with that of America,
The truth is, that the greater part of tho cotton
crop l* allowed to fill on tho ground nr is picked
with leaves and stalks, and has to undergo a clean
sing after it it purchased nnd stored by the mer
chant-only the very finest descriptions arc pinked
with any care, and they very indifferently. From
;he manner in which this writer speak* of the busi*
ne«s, one might suppose it quite new in the hand*
of European*, instead of which, for the last 25 or 30
years, many intelligent and enterprising men have
embatkrd their capitals and energies in fruitless ef
fort* to improve the quality of the article.
Wo proceed to consider.
3d. Tha ability of India to produce cotton of
a quality superior or equal to that of American
growth.
The writer referred to says, that ,4 nt Dacca a su
perior kind of cotton has lung boon grown which pro
duces those incomparable cloths called Dacca inn*-
Bn*- _ The cottons of the new world have been tried
in various part* of the Coromandel Coast, rind the
result has ulmoet every where twen favorable. Tire
Uouibon cottonha* noarly superseded the indigen
ous growth of Coimbatore, Tinnevelly, nnd Salem,
'ihe province of Trichinopoly, which has hitherto
refused to grow the cotton of the country, i* now
producing fin* crops of New Orleans. Tho S-a Is
land cotton, the best kind that proceeds from tho
American market ha* produced well in South Acrot;
and tho experiment* now making, undnr the auspi-
ces of the Madras government, and under the super
vision of Dr. White, bid fair to prove that cotton of
the finest quality and of the very best kind, will bo
produced in that part of India."
“A sample from Sangot Island has so closely re
sembled the true Sea Island cotton, as to render it
difficult to distinguish it. At Allubad, Delhi, Ilunsi,
the Deira Doon, and other part* of the northwen
provinces, the^ N*w Orleans and Upland Georgian
cottons are thriving and promise to yield a sample
equal to the parent stock."
I quote at length and now proceed to note some
glaring inaccuracies:
The fina cotton which he speak* of as glowing
in tho neighborhood of Dacca is cultivated in so
•niall a quuntity, {fat all, os not to be worthy of no
tice. The Dacca muslins are now rarely made; En
glish muslin* made from American coitun hiving ta
ken place even in India.
The success of the experiments of tho M idrn* go
vernment have been spoken of for several years
past, but the fruits have not yet appeared. When
at Madras in the litter part of 1837,1 procured a
•ampleof Tinniveily cotton exported, and now send
you a portion to judge whether America ha* to fear
rivalry in that quarter. Tbe valuo »ff tho sample
was Md*. Rup*. 87 per candy of 500 lbs, or .about
54*1 per IU on board.
