THE COTTON CIRCULAR. GEN, M'DUfFiE’i LETTER.^ To tlu Editor ofthe Stalk CnrtHuinn; Sm—Tim numerous end incessant donuncis, tium, to which the'Colton Clrculsr' has been exposed ever emco its publication, and the mi.a|.i,ichcn«ions in which thou ilennucialioni ■eein to here originated, remlar itin tome icrt, my duty to explain Iho Ituo object of that paper, eo far ae 1 underatand it, and to elate more- over, tho exact teiaiion that 1 bear to it. While rlmklnirtt a few dnye tn New York on my return front Europe, I mot with two of ntjr friends, who wete cotton planter.! and the ex tnoidiiiaty knd artificial atate of the cotton trado audits consequent expniuto to tile mercy of od- verso combinations, on (lie othor aide of tho we ter, and of vory (real pressure in tho money marketa, either of London or Now York, bet cimo the subject of frequent converealion be. tween tie. We concurred fully in certain lead, in# fcaturca of a plan for restoring the trade in that ataple, which ie tie a dual currency nf anr foreign commerce, to •oureUiine like the elai biliiy and uniformity which should belong to an at tide performing a function eo highly ini. porlant—a plan which would at the Mine lime promote the inleraat ol the cotlun plauteie, give to our eouthern banka that coulrul over the foreign exchangee that naturally and rightfully balonge to the Stales, which produce the eta. pie upon which nearly all tho foreign bills of theUuiied Slates are drawn; and by this meana give a poworful aid, to the direct Undo of importation and exportation, through our soullii ern cities ut which all parlies among us take eo deep an inlereet. I willnow, very briefly,elate the anilines of (lie plan, to which I have alluded, to far as my views and opinions are involved in it. I propose that the existing banks, in the coti (oh growing Statea, should discount the notes of cotton planters and others upon the security of cotton, actually deposited iu a neighboring warehouse, every piper being pur in piawssion of the bank, necessary Id tho completeness end security of us lien. 1 list tho notes should keldis- counted ntOO days, with on undemanding, that if the proprietor of the cotton determined not to have it shipped to Europe in that time, the note mutt be punctually paid at iu maturity, or the Bank bo anlherixedto have Ilia cotton sold, -holding the surplus, aller paying the notes, as a deposits to the creditor the proprietor. But ifthe proprietor determined tu ship his cotton, which it is presumed would be the cose, in most instances, ilia Bank should bo author, heed at the end of the ninety daya to draw a ninety day bill upon Europe against the cotton, haring been el the time ofthe shipment, placed in posse.lion of oil the documenle necessary to make that •uthoriiy rfliiclivo, the planter or pro> piietute retraining the control over the tunes and lorme of selling the cotton, provided it he sold iu lima to duelings the bill drawn against it at its maturity. This ie the whole sum and subetanra of the f ilan, so fir as I have had any agency in it. n setting down ninety days at the time the notea discounted, and bills drawn should bave to sun. I bare merely adapted whit I auppose would be convenient peiieds, subject or coiiim to such modifications u experience may sox, geet. This is a vary simple plan, entirely uninciun, bersd With now or experimental machinery; and though it aims to work no miracles, I will point out in slew words, what I consider the plain reaultaaiid obvious benefit* it would prci •luce, to our banks and our cotton planters, and our merchants. It would place our banks on a more solid fuitnduUou ihan any olber banka in the United Slalos,by giving them n constant supply of '“""n" cxi lunge. For exempli, I send my cot ton to Chariest,in, el nny convenient periods. I apply to oneufour banks,tn discount iny note at bit days, upon the security ol dial portion of my cotta,, act Uily ,n tho warehouse, instead or P er. eottol security; the bank baring the cotton in* ipccted itx current value eitiinuted by cempe tern judges, end discounting my note in auch an amount as will render Ibo transaction parfectly eaft. At the and of tho 90 daya, I pay off nit note, not in the bills of tho bank itself, which it camtot conyert into apecie, hut In on unqiica. ttunable hill of exchange on London, which I nuihorize It redraw, payable ntitoty days aller fflkl, on Baring, Brothers & Co., with whose house ill Liverpool, I have in tho miamitno. caused my collou lo he deposited,subject to tiio lien ortho bank.

FRIDAY EVENING, Sept 87, 1839. obtained, this It,mile of speculators n lendg to ?3«SKE cut tail their discom..., „„ ululated mass of cotton isncce^nrUy (bitted up on fl>« market nt once, in qunntity r threo or run times exceeding die existing demand fur in unr avoidably producing nil extreme mild unnatural depression in the prire. It is much moro tho interest of die cotton Planter* and regular mer chants^ that the price of cotton should be steady and uniform, than that it should be occasionally very high. Uut mere cotton epeculators have tho sauio interest in the fluctuations in the price of Cotton as money brokers hnvo in the deraugei tnentatid fluctuations of die currency. I was very much surprised, therefore, when I •aw that your intelligent correspondent,' A Cot• ton Planter' so very widely mistook the mailer a* to ascribe to the 'Cotton Circular/ a design to force • confederacy between the banks and the speculators.' Heaven forbid the banks of such a union*. Your correspondent would have coiue much nearer the mark, iflie had supposed that xhoul nine tenths of the assaults made up on that paper, have proceeded directly or iudi- reotly from this latter clasa of persons. No banking operations can bs more legitimate than that proposed by the circular. Deside* the stabilUyjmd security it will iiupait to the banks, it prescribes a safe, practical limit upon bank circulation. A currency never cau become re- duudaut, wldch is issued upon the principle proposed, for every dollar of circulation ihus issued, would represent the actual anuual income ofthe country. This would not be a mere no minal representation, as is the case when it is said (hat bank bills represent specie. The cot ton is actually there to tho full amount of the bills issuod and advanced upon ii, when every body knows that the vaults of all the banks docs not amount to one fourth of llisrir aggregate cir. cuV.ion. So that, in fact, every paper dollar re presents only twenty five cents in specie. 1 •hall lie very naturally asked, 'if those uro your views of our system of banking, how is it that you signed • paper proposiug the tsiuoofpost notes payable at remote periods?' I answer, that my uutno was signed to the Circulate by • friend, several weeks ofier 1 left New York, upou the implied authority, derived from a very strong and intimate personal friendship, and from my known concurrence in the general principles and objects developed iu that docui msnt. The issuo of post notes, lie no doubt considered a matter of detail, which tho Con. yention would adept or reject as its deliberate judgment should dictate. 1 am very sorry il was suggested in the Circular, as il hi* given rise to much of the opposition to a call of d Conveuton, and is a measure to which 1 should as at present advised, be decidedly opposed. 1 do not think the proposed post notes could pos sibly be made to answer the purpose oft cur rency, and as a cotton planter, 1 am sure they would not answer my purpose. As to the sixty million cotton bank, which some lively imagination has foisted into the Circular, the people of South Carolina do not require to bo informed, that 1 am the very Inst man, who would give it the slightest counte nance. They cannot but recollect that in my last annual messago—as Chief Magistrate of south 'Carolina,'! it,«d llte very strongest lam (uage in opposition Ie the cheiteitni of , gj, ,antic bank then projected, urging n, opposi, Hull toil the general redundancy ofthe curicu- cy, and predicting the cumtneirial explosion which took place a few months efterwaiwatde, lo those who were utterly deafto the warning X’het bank was chartered by na overwhelming majority ; those n ho are now fora U. 8.

While trurle is ereuimgly prosperous, money nlniyj lant, and loam eerily ler this brief exposition of the proposed plan of restoring the cotton trado lo iu ualural channels I will notice u few of the objection, urged against it. A great spprthemion is expressed, that this movement on our aide, wgl produce cminter- cotnbirmions on the other. Most assuredly,the rhargon mode ognind the ••Circular.” and’ the tone of the articles published in aotne ofour own journals, are calculated tn encourage end invite ■och combinations. They charge upon ua hos tile ond offansive combinations, tvften tvu pro pose only tn asaome a defensive position, to re sist such combinations abroad, aud to avoid the necessity of glutting lha markeu in moments of panic or temporary and unnatural depression. They proclaim our weakness, olid exaggerate the power of the advereary, es much as to aay lo the European manufacturers, now notori ously combined to force down the price of cot ton, in the face or the most deficient crop ever made, “go oil—gentlemen, regulate the price of collou aa you pleaae, any effort made lo reeiat you by tlio poor, dispersed planter,, will he im. potent and credulous." inhere he either in- lionslily, patriotism or truth iu Ihosostatements and scutinieiile, it eacopca my perception. If it wore lo come to a war of combinations, w liicli God lorbid. it is utterly untrue, that we should ho powerless in such u contest. We possess the locks of Sampson. Unr cotton is absolutely indispensable to tho manufacturing end com- inerctal nation, of Europe, and hy withholding - •'ng " crop we could sp cad starvation and rebellion over ell the manufacturing portions of Europe, mid cause tho lordly capitali.ti, so much dreaded, lo cry out for quarters. A prcl. ly story to proclaim abroad, that the produces or onr annual oiport of §80,000,(100 ofa staple, admitted la be equal to so much bullion—a sin! plo too, which sustains nearly one half of the entire commerce of England, me loo impotent lo guard their own interests. If with such re- sources, our pl-intcrs have been feeble, hucause, is your correspondent justly says, they ere widely dispe. sed—it is thojvery reason why they should nreuinblo together, lo dernie Iho means of controlling their own properly, which overy body else lies been loo long iu the habit sf com trolling, and using for their own purposes. As to combinations abroad,they exist already, end have recently carried their power to the ut. ■no,(stretch. Tiny hove bed in give way, and a re-action ie already commenced.
