New York, Nov 22—wfiinins JttiscellmiGms Facts aiul Effects of Inter-Emigration. About one-fourth of our native-born citizens leave the States of their birth, and settle in oth er portions ol the Union. V irginia has sent out 335,000: South Carolina, 103,000; North Carolina, ‘261,000. Among tho Northern States, Vermont and Connecticut have contri buted the largest share of their population to colonize other sections. They have lost about • 25 per cent on the native population, while Soutli Carolina has lost 36 per cent. There are some interesting reflections sug gested by these statistics, and the historical facts supplied from general sources with which they are connected. Our first settlements were along the Atlantic sea hoard, and upon the rivers flowing over the eastern slopes that extend from • lie Vlleghanies. Not only the conveniences of trade, hut the occupancy of the West by savage tribes, necessitated the eastward line of early civilization. If our progress had been confined to the Atlantic regions, it is very probable that our commercial centres would have borne south ward. Norfolk and Charleston would have grown rapidly. The indication of things prior to the War of 1812 was strongly in that direc tion. Alexandria, on the Potomac, k was then the largest flour market in the country, and Vir ginia was one of the first of our States in popu lation, wealth, and influence. But the opening of the West turned the tide of prosperity. The tens of thousand that that flocked to the new States beyond the mountains did not become I tributary to their mother States, hut the more j | northerly regions drew their trade and products, j ; There were natural reasons for this result.— The elevations ot land that interposed their , harriers between the fertile prairies of the West | and the tide-water of the East were less farther | north, and water courses were more available ] for commercial transportation. Massachusetts I could easily fall hack on Western New York j for her supplies of wheat and corn, while New , S York could as readily lay her hands on the fruit- j | lul farms of the remoter trans-Alleghany. The j j consumers, too, were here: the factories, ship- I yards, and germinal Lowells were here; and j above all, that active, converting power, which changes the fruits of the earth into numerous j forms, was diffused everywhere over northern j life. Hands that till are doubtless more inde-j pendent and noble, hut hands that re produce and re-ship are always more efficient nuclei for | centralized operations. But wc are debtors to our Southern brethren beyond all the computations of arithmetic.— They are the men to settle new regions. The great champions of the westward movement were brave Southerners. The glory of such pioneers as Boone, Kenton, Ridley, belongs to the descendants of the Cavaliers and Scotch- Irish. But for their heroic enterprise, the West would have longer continued inaccessible to the Anglo-Saxon race. In the hands of those men and their compeers, the axe and tho rifle did wonder, and civilization laid broad foundations besides noble rives. The shrewd Yankee, fin gering at his notions and figuring on his slate, soon followed at their heels, and log-cabins were boseiged with the entreaties of barter.— Flat-boats were exchanged for steam-vessels, and coon-skins for buffalo-robes. And ere long, hemp, corn, wheat, sought the sea-board, and vast store-houses were opened in our midst, for western accomodation. The caravan was promptly provided with the caravansera, and ships hoisted sails for the service of the Missis sippi domain. The star of empire moved west wardly, hut the sun still rose in the east, and morning freshness lingered as ever upon our skv. No doubt, the constitution of northern so ciety had much to do with this course of things. Where men are compact, they must struggle.- Where landed property is limited, ingenuity must originate inventions; brains must quicken hands ; and thrift must issue new editions of old materials. Large farms must provoke large manufactures, and an agricultural South and ■ West must stimulate a commercial North. But I physical nature, in the arrangement of this conti nent, prescribed the termsof mutual aid and bene faction. Trade has pursued the original pre scription. And thereby, we have grown neccs sary to one another—tho various parts knifing themselves closely together, and by the laws of commercial and agricultural activity, strength- I ening and confirming our political institutions. I We h ave thus reached a point at which the i strong material forces of earth hind us to Imr- j inony and union. Mountains, plains, rivers and lakes, form a constitution not to he violated.— | State Rights have firmly entwined themselves j with Slate Interests; and clocks, shoes, iron, copper, lead, ice, mackerel, cod-fish, cotton and j sugar, consolidate politics that fill our citizens are forced to acknowledge by the injunctions of a vital utilitarianism. It is this coincident ad vance of our industry and our political science— this steady blending of Art and Truth—this happy wedlock of Trade and Brotherhood— that have carried us so far forward. And now, i tho Pacific is preparing to repeat the same his- ; tory. A mighty commercial empire founded ! there, and opening its trade with Asia and Asi- \ atic Islands, will soon biing up the culture of ! distant western regions. The still waters will forthwith he agitated by the rivalries of com merce, and Eastern and Western America will he prosperous enough to feed and clothe the world. The laws of Inter-Emigration suggest seve ral other trains of thought. So far as we have been able to learn from the most intelligent old men of the Southern Stutes, the original emi grants from that section of our country were usually disposed to follow westwardly the same line of latitude. Virginia sent thousands into Kentucky; Georgia distributed her population over Alabama and Mississippi; North Carolina moved over into Tennessee, and Maryland for warded large colonies to the YY'est. South Caro lina planters setttled mainly on the rich bottom lands of the extreme Southern and Southwes tern States. The Northern States, devoted to mechanical and mercantile objects, observod neither longitude nor latitude. Wherever wants had to he supplied by localized or traveling trade, they were sure to be found; and how much of sharpened wit they owed to contact with Geor gians and Tennesseeans, and how much of bet ter manners they brought home from the grace ful intercourse of Virginia and the Carolinas, the future researches of Deßovv and Hunt may settle. But this outspreading of the people has produced great changes in national sentiment, solar as that sentiment is modified by local cir cumstances. Find Virginia blood i>* the Wes tern States, and the high-toned family pride, that once delighted in reminiscences, wins conside ration and renown by deeds of personal gran deur. The same .warm Scotch-1 lish blood, educated and controlled by the presence of or ganic ideas and abstract sentiments, that mark the statesmanship of Calhoun, and give it, in | sight of friends and foes, such a majestic moral j bearing, takes a heroic shape in Jackson, and lends a magical terror to Kentucky Riflemen on j the field ol battle. Georgia grows rich on less capital, builds more railroads with smaller means, and raises more female colleges than any other State, while her scattered sons push Alabama forward to the front rank of the cotton States, and line the Gulf Coast with lumber mills for Cuban trade. The drovers of Tennessee, and the wealthy planters from the rice regions, meet in the far Southwest, strike the difference, and exchange characteristics. The small farmer from Western V irginia goes Northwest and turns Free-Soiler; and the rabid Y ankee—death at home for free labor—becomes, by Southern set tlement, a more inveterate advocate for Slavery than a Carolinian. Maidens from the South, j fair and beautiful, marry Northern husbands, ; and suddenly turn Abolitionists; and the Yau- I kee girls, that go South as teachers and stay ! as wives, find plantation life to he the perl'ec- I tion of home and religion. Quakers keep root j od in the primevial soil, and Pennsylvania Dutch hold fast to the limestone lands; hut all else | float as the currents move—meeting and ming ling as circumstances govern. Impulse is checked by steady habits, and instinct by cul tivated intelligence. The man of hooks lives with the man of trees ami forests; the clock maker sets the machinery of a Southern village in motion; the peddler is transformed into a prince; the aristocratic Southernor proves the most agreeable and trust worthy Democrat, and the men of Lawrence and Lowell are capital bedfellows for sugar planters in Louisiana.— !

Thursday, the Ist day of December, has been fixed fertile meeting of this Association at Col | umhia, South Carolina. A large number of the j most intelligent planters and scientific men of | the South may be expected. A meeting of such varied interest as will he then presented has j never before occurred in the Southern States, | and every assurance may be given that it wilt J prove eminently successful in the grand objects j which form the basis of its organization. The ! elevation, protection and improvement of the j rural affairs ol the Southern States is certainly j praiseworthy, and should receive tho sanction | and encouragement of all our citizens. We, therefore, most cordially invite and desire tho participation of the whole South. The Secret ary of the Association, Dr. Cloud, of Alabama, makes the following ad interim announcement: “The Executive Council of the Association have made arrangements with gentlemen of high distinction in the various departments of Agri cultural science and practice to address the As sociation during its assemblage. We have also assurances that the meeting will ho iu every way highly acceptihle to the people of the Palmetto State, and also to the citizens of Columbia. Addresses have been promised by, and may he expected from, the following gentlemen : South Carolina—John Bachman, D. D., LL. D., Hon. J. B. O’Neall, Hon. W. 11. Gist, Prof. F.S. Holmes, Hon. R. F. W. Allston, H. W. Ravenel, Esq., Prof. R. T. Brumby. Mississippi—Dr. H. A. Swasey, Thomas Af fleck, Esq. Georgia—Dr. W. C. Daniell, J. Van Huron, Esq., R. J. Hardwick, Esq. Alabama—Col. Isaac Croom, Absalom Jack son, Esq., Dr. A, A. Lipscomb, Col. Wm. De- Forrest Holly. District of Columbia—J. D. B. Deßow, Esq, “In addition to the gentlemen above named, several have partially promised to address the meeting or send an essay. There are also some gentlemen that have been addressed yet to hear from.” The meeting will continue for a session of several days, and due arrangements will he made for the accommodation of a large audi ence. On behalf of the Executive Council of the As sociation. A’ G. Summer. Mr. Toombs Resolution's. It will not he improper to call these Mr. Toomb’s Resolutions, introduced into tlie Sen ate by Mr. Pope of Wilkes,and into the House of Representatives by Mr. Irwin of Wilkes.— They are doubtles designed for Mr. Toombs’es pecial benefit, and have hadjthe intended effect of distracting the attention of the Legislature, and diverting censure from Mr. Toombs’ short com ings and wrong doings. These Toombs’reso lutions, attack President Pierce on the old and stale charges of frecsoil appointments and the Pacific Railroad. They attempt to drag the New Y ork quarrel into the Georgia Legislature and declare that the movers of them “heartily sympathize with the Hon. Daniel S. Dickinson, of New York, and his noble associates in their efforts to purge the National Democratic party of its freesoil elements, and that we hereby ten der them our heartfelt gratitude for their patri otic devotion to the Union and the Constitution.’’ Anew thing under the sun, and highly credita ble to the Whigs of Georgia it is, to feel such patriotic interest in the purity of the National Democratic party! They themselves are mo ving heaven and earth to crush and destroy that party —a party to which they swore implacable hostility, under any and all circumstances, pure or corrupt, with or without freesoil elements.— Yet they can, without a blush for the hypocri sy of the thing, tender sympathy to men whom they cheer on in what they call the good cause of purging the National Democratic party, whilst striving to use those very men as tools for the destruction and not the elevation of that party . —Marietta Adeocate. Lord Palmerston on National Fasts. —The presbytery of Edinburgh have received with mingled astonishment anil grief a letter from Lord Palmerston, In reply to an inquiry wheth er a national fast, on account of the visitation of cholera, was to he appointed. His lordship after referring to the laws of nature, concludes, “Lork Palmerston would, thorefore, suggest that the best course which the people of this coun try can pursue to deserve that the further pro gress of the cholera should be stayed, will he to employ the interval that will elapse between the present time and the beginning of the next spring in planning and executing measures by which those portions of their towns and cities which are inhabited by the poorest classes, and which from the nature of things, must most need purification and improvement, may be freed from tiiose causes and sources of contagion which if allowed to remain will infallibly breed pestilence, and be fruitful in death, iu spite of all the prayers and fastings of a united hut inac tive nation. When man has done his utmost for his own safety, then is the time. to invoke the blessings of Heaven to give effect to his ex ertions.” From China.—The Rev. E. C. Bridgman lias written a letter to the Boston Recorder, dated “Shanghai, Aug. 6, from which we take the following extracts: “During the last month, the insurgents have, according to all the reports that have reached us here, steadily extended their lines, and had, a month ago, possession of a large walled city, Fung-Yang, within 500 miles of Pekin, on which they seemed strongly bent, determined to kill or drive out the Muncbus. If Pekin falls, the old government will, in all probability, go too ; and then will come anarchv, unless the insurgents have wisdom and strength to extend their own government, now in its third year, apparently well organized, with consider able resources, and army sixty or eighty thou sand strong. What will our friends of the Bible Societies and Tract Societies think and say, when they know that these rebels are printing and circula ting both the Scriptures and tracts ‘? The Rev. Chas. Taylor is now on his third trip to their camp, and the Rev, L. T. Roberts is in company with him, hoping to reach the chief, who was once Mr. R.’s catechumen ami guest at Canton. It would seem that this chief gained his first religious knowledge—his first knowledge of Christianity—from a tract entitled God’s Word to Admonish the Age, or some similar one many years ago, while a student at Canton ; and that for Laving embraced the new doctrines, he was ejected from his place as a school-teacher.- Friendless and pennyless, he came to Mr. Rob erts, with whom he remained some months in the spring or summer of 1817. Subsequently, he and his fellows were persecuted, and two of them put to death. The others, this chief among the rest, were driven to make resistance. Hence apparently, the origin of this great movement.’’ T From the London Times. 1 The Last Hope Gone. Commander M’Clnre can send us no news of Sir John Franklin’s expedition. The opin ion among the most distinguished and Polar worthies now is that Sir John Franklin, after j leaving the winter quarters where his traces ! were found, proceeded to carry out the Admi- j rality instructions, steering first westerly for J Melville Island, and then shaping a course—as far as the configuration of the scene of action permitted—southerly and westerly for Behering’s Straits. It is supuosed that, in endeavoring to carry this purpose into effect, the Erebus and Terror were hopelessly frozen up or destroyed years ago iu in some of the multitudinous chan nels which are known or supposed to exist there. Tins we find to bo the opinion of the princi pal Arctic navigators, and it comes before us recommended by its extreme probability. Cer tainly, Sir John Franklin was not an officer to leave unattempted any duty which he had been ordered to perform, and therefore it is probable that he would not have deviated from the letter of his instructions without excellent cause; had he so deviated, it is all hut certain that he would have left behind him, at Beecliy Island, or elsewhere, some record of his changed in tention. it then, Commander McClure lias been unable to find any trace of the lost expedition between Behering’s Straits and the point from which he wrote his dispatches, it would appear that our best reliance lias been exhausted. The public have a right to expect that we have now seen the | Arctic expeditions. Even Sir John Barrow,! had ho been yet alive, would now have entreat ed the Adrnirnlity to hold their hand. Savannah and Charleston —A Compromise. A correspondent of the Savannah Courier no tices the two projects ol Railroad connection between Georgia and South Carolina, viz: a Road direct from Charlesten to Savannah, and a Road from the latter to Branchville ; and on the supposition that the first of these is exclu sively a Charleston interest, as the latter is man ifestly an interest of Savannah at the expense of i Charleston, he proposes what he is pleased to I call a compromise, to harmonize them. It is that Georgia should allow these Roads to cross the river by a bridge in common, on condition that South Carolina shall give charters to both of them. We are somewhat accustomed now a-days to compromises, in which one party gets | all, on condition that they shall not demand more ! than all the matters in dispute, hut this proposi j tion from Savannah goes even beyond the im- I pudence of tho North at Washington. We had j supposed that it was as much the interest of I Savannah as of Charleston, that there should he a direct and cheap communication between them. We had no idea that they would ask us to buy the right of crossing the river and erect ing a depot in their city. We had not. supposed that the soil of Georgia was so very sacred that it could not he touched without paying an enor-! mous price for the privilege ; and for our part we certainly shall not advise the ratification of any such self conceited notion. If people can not go to Savannah without paying ransom, they can at least stay away. But since this matter of compromise of inter ests between the two cities has been broached, we take leave to propose what we think is a compromise having really two sides to it. Sa vannah wishes a communication with the North by the directest line, viz: by a road to Branch ville, which would carry ali her travel and bu- 1 siness far away from Charleston. On the other hand, the latter wants a connection by the short est route with Macon, Columbus, Montgomery, and all that region. Let Savannah have her road to Branchville, on condition that Charles ton shall he allowed to have a connection with the Central Railroad at its great bend, which would he iu a direct line with Macon Os course it is understood that each city shall build its own road—that by which it is to he benefitted at the expense of the other. This we call a fail compromise. What says Savannah ( and if Savannah is mute, what says Macon, and what says the State of Georgia? —Charleston Mer cury. Courtesy in Railroad Cars.— The New Y ork tSji 4 discourses upon courtesy in railroad cars and gives the following hint to.the ladies: “We venture to say, that if the ladies would only condescend to speak or smile a grateful acknowledgment when gentlemen abandon their seats to them, all thought of the company's in terests would he forgotten, and a lady’s entrance in a crowded car ho welcomed as a gleam of sunshine in a cloudy day. The truth is, too many women are like spoiled children who snatch a favor with a frown, and the other sex will get tired of allowing them to have their own way. When a smile makes women invinci ble, why should they rob man-kind of so much happiness by assuming manners that provoke and annoy.” ET “W'hen is a goat not a goat?” When 1 he’s a button (hutting.) [TERMS, $2 00 IN ADVANCE. Prospects |af the Cotton Market. Hunt’s Merchants Magazine, in an extended article on Cotton has the following upon the Market prospects for the ensuing year: “The markets for the coming crop we con ceive to be of a favorable character, for the con sumption is likely to he adequate to the absorp tion of any probable extent of production. This would seem to be evident from the course of the past two years ; tor within that period we have seen two suecessivd crops—the last the largest ever produced, and the combined exceeding any two previous crops by the important amount of nearly a million and a quarter of bales, (the crops ol 1851 and 1852 together amount to about 0,210,000 hales) we have seen these two large crops more readily disposed of than any previous ones,and at prices which not only pre sent a satisfactory average throughout hut which show a gradual though steady improvement (with some collateral causes) until the closing rates for the crop of 1852, are nearly fifty per cent higher than the opening ones lor that of 1851. VVe have already shown that ratio of consumption in Great Britain for the first six months of the current year has exceeded some what the ratio of 1852; and should the political questions which now agitate Europe be amica bly arranged, and the world remain at peace such is the general prosperity of the great con suming countries, that a very ample crop is like ly to meet a ready market, at satisfactory prices. A t the same time the increased facilities for its disposal, to which we have made reference in our opening remarks, all of which will enure to the advantages of the planter. Caleb Gushing. W e cannot conceive the motives which prompt our Whig brethren to assail General Cushing in the vile manner which we have witnessed in some of the journals of that party. On Friday last, the New Orleans Bulletin quoted the fol j hitting paragraph, without a word of disappro hation. It is extracted from a letter written by j the Postmaster of Worcester, Mass., in relation j to Gen. Gushing’s address, lately published, in , which he deprecates a coalition between the I Democrats ol -Massachusetts and the Freesoil | ers. Just read tho dirty language transferred by the editor ot the Bulletin to his columnsjwith out a word of dissent, ami with apparent satis faction : Ihe writer (Gen Cushing) is an enormous hypocrite and scoundrel, und the person he writes to is a paltry, peddling, huckstering knave.— * * * But this interference with State legisla tion is a matter which must be immediately cor rected, or there is no independence likely to he lelt. \\ e are ready to co-operate with Slave holders and Abolitionists, Hards, and Softs, anybody and everybody to get rid of such a monstrous as this. * ” But Cushing is a hypocrite as well as a tyrant . There is not a Democrat iu the .State more deeply implicated in the coalition with Freesoilers than he is. He broke with the Hunkers on this very ground.” We call upon every man wno has the least regard for the decencies and proprieties of life, to trowii upon and discountenance this disgraceful ribaldry and atrocious scurrility, aimed one ol tiie high officers ot the Government—a man of profound erudition and brilliant genius, whose attainments inscience and literature and polit ical lore are not snpassed by any those of indi ! vidua! now living in this country, or in any j other. 1 his is the same Caleb Cushing who ex pended large sums ol money from his private purse to clothe and equip the New England Re giment of V olunteers, previously to its embark ation lor Vera Cruz, during the late war with Mexico. The Whig Legislature of Massachu setts, then sitting in Boston, had refused to ap propriate a single dollar for that patriotic object Gushing is possessed ot an ample fortune, and his regard for the welfare and glory of his coun try, prompted him to do that which the men un worthy to he styled the representatives of Mas sachusetts had refused to do. We are at a loss to know what fault Generaj Cushing has committed to merit the savage ob loquy and hideous abuse, lavished upon him by the Whig freesoil newspapers. His private character is entirely stainless; his public life is distinguished by the great ability, integrity and uselulness which have characterized it in what ever scenes lie has been called upon to act.— He has lately issued a production of Ids pen, intended, as he says, to assist in crushing the ef lorts ot freesoilers and abolitionists to over throw the federal constitution and dissolve the Union. Surely this masterly essay, volunteer ed in defence of our national institutions and of Southern interests in particular, deserves not to he abused and villified (as we see it is) with a dirty blackguardism that would not be tolerated in the disputes of a decent forecastle. What doe the_ editor of the Bulletin and his Whig coadjutors expect to gain for themselves and their party by this war of slander and cal umny upon the favorites of the Democracy, the first and ablest statesmen of the country? How and by what act or word has Mr. Cushing de served the epithet “scoundrel,” re-echoed by the Bulletin from some vile source in the North?— He is a scoundrel because he served his country in the Mexican war; lie is a scoundrel because at his own expense lie supplied the New Eng- t land regiment with equipments and warm cloth ing on the eve of its departure for Vera Cruz at an inclement season, after the Whig Legisla ture of Massachusetts had shown the brave fel lows the cold shoulder and the back of their hands; because at the nick of time, previously to the last Presidential election, he manfully stood up for the rights and interests of the South; because he has lately issued a most elequent and masterly address calling upon the people of New England to crush the unnatural faction of free soilers and abolitionists, and beseeching the De mocracy to shun all junction or coalition with them. These are the offences which Cushing has committed against the peace and dignitv of Whigdom. We know of no offences of his, and never heard a man accuse him of any, against the proprieties of life or the tranquility and honor of his country.— Loitisina, Courier. llabics. —lt strikes us that more fibs are told about babies than anything else in the world.— VVe all say they are sweet, yet every body who can smell knows that they are sour ; we all say they are lovely,yet nine babies in ten have no more pretension to beauty than a pup dog; we praise their expressive eyes,yet all babies squint; we call them doves, though one of them makes more noise than a colony of screech owls.
