We •ea wagon load* of the itaple brought into town every day, but very little ia plaeed on tb* market for sale, on account of tbe low priec. The farmtra aeatn to be taking Ibe proper atepa tbia season to obtain good pricea for their ootton, by not allowing it to be aold at preaent prioea. If they will only atick to thi* plan, they will certainly get a reaaooa ble pricj for it. Farmer* should take warning from tbe »otion of tbe apeculn tor laet *e*a >n. A great many farmers were eompelled during the year to give lien* and mortgage* on their ootton crop* ; and aome upon their whole farm, stock, aod farming implimeots, thia brought tbe farmer under very etrict tbligations to the speculator, if not di rectly it was indirectly. These obliga tions, as doubtless a great many farmers bare experienced, were rgidly enforced. Tbe speculator haring no oompassiou on them er tbeir ootton ; but pounced upod the staple as aoou as it could be prepar ed for sale, forced it oo the market at a low price, and realis'd for tbemeelres an immenoe profit; this the farmer wa» antitied to, and would have receired if he could hare held the »Uow himself. The farmer by experience kas woioobl edly learned the poliey W tmt mwtat'e. Tbe farmer ia supposed te tn n wedk a conditioj a* u item tm tvej >« Me market aa texo as trugami t* is, which ia the ease tea extent; he involve* bimtelf n 4eta daring tbe year, with the expeeurioa of paying with bis first ■tjstton, which he might, if ha promises to 4o so, r«t the speculator under UantL til these arraogeaie: ts, and as soon as tbe eottot is ready for market, puts down tbe prior, kaowiog that the hon est farmer is compelled to sell for what ever he ean get, to meet these demands against him. Farmers look to your in terest 1 In the beginning of the year make your arrangement so as to raise enough provisions on the pi so.: to keep it up; plant the remainder in eotton. By this method your eotton patch as >y bo small, but what if it is, you will owe nothing at tbe end of tbe year ior provi sions, and your little eotton crop will be surplus, which you esn command at will* Ton can hold it until the specu lator chooses to realise on his, then you esn realize on yonrs. Ton bad better do a small business and make ten dol than to do a large businoss and lose ten dollars. Shake off the sbsekles and fetters of nrrthern capitalists, let them know by your aotions that you are able and not afraid to hold your eotton for the highest prices. Uatil tbe farmer adopt apian similar to tbe one suggested above, they will be bat little more than mere tenants for nortban capital. In regard to the present erop; bold it if you are able to do it, if yon are in dept •uu can’t pay oat otherwise, sell only enough for neeessiry expenses. the present omp is housed and prepared for market; but when the spaculat.or learns from actual count that the num ber of bales made, falls short of a a aver age crop, he will bid higher for it, then you will reap your reward for waiting. We have but few reasons why eotton should be on tbe decline, one is the dis tracted and unsettled state of the coun try, another important ens is, that north ern speculators ars trying, as they *!- wayi have done, to ooutrol it, and it is very probable they’ll succeed. We see very gloomy reports from all section* of the ootton States in reference to the destruction of cotton by the caterpillar and boll worm. These reporta make but very little, if soy impression on tbe mind of the speculators, they depend mainly on the actual count after it is prepared tot market, It remains with the planter to protect himaelf. Tbe northern manufacturers and capitalists bars set out to gobble up s great portion of the present crop, as they did of last year’s, It is the plan ter aJooo that can ehsjk the decline in toe market. We si e aireaoy, ibstaome mill* ia the State of Ms»aauL*seUa ea* rnn only four days in tb* week, on ac count of the decline of eotton and eot fabtios. Planters should make every thing eke out as much as poaaible, and oompel the speculator to pay theralue of tbeir eotton. The eotton statistics of the United States, np to Aug. Slat, 1960 , including tbe two preceding years show a deoline in number of bales in L uisiana, Texas, Florida and North Caroliaa. Tbe Bute* of Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee aggregate gain of over (400, 000) four hundred thousand bales,in cluding the last years ernp. The pros eot ornp having been attacked by tbe oatcrpillar and boll worm will have been cut off aa much aa gained on tbe last yean eonnt; leaving tbe present erop at a maxima of (2,000,000) two milli n b.ies. For the “Daween Journal" Mr. Editor :—Logicians argue that every man has a certain degree of in fluence over hie iellow man. If auch ia a fact, and 1 have no reason to doubt it, the influence I’ve had ovor others must be of a peculiar cast, as I am never known to talk, only when a poked to, and that is unfrequently, for I don’t give them the chance.— However if you will give me space iu your columns, I’ll tell them what I think, oo* lime at leant. Shakespeare, in hi* character of Ham!«t. gives vent to a very appropri ate expression, with regard to our con dition in a political point of view, which reads as fol ows; ' To be, or not to be. that’s the question.” Represented aa being uttered under a very grave con aiderati in, which was that of and aiding between life, and death, the better of which to piefer in the settlement of the numerous perplexities, that will ocua sionally involve the human mind. Tbe Southern people generally, have braved misfortunes with an irreproach able fortitude, without calling into ques'ku the probable felicity of the un tried extreme; all seemingly tuxious«o live as well, and as long as the nature of the case would permit, though they bave had as much to justify tbe melau cholly rtfl lotion as ever wrought upou the mind of Hamlet. Our hardships have been severe, in fact, enough has already beau forced upon us to cause the spirit to yield iu despondency, if saoh be posible in a re •o'me people. The idea of being defeated in tbe •oesing election savers 100 math of op ;m»io*.

It is not a matter of little importance with os, that the Dcmooratie party should auoeeed, onr existence ae a free people depend upon it. We cannot hope for clemency on tbe part of those whose every <ft rt since the oloae of the war has been to degrade os. It should be one united effort of tbe people to place the Democratic party in power, and defeat, if possible, the hellish design of the Radtosi animosity. They eannot be too aeslous in pre paring for the ooming conflict, when so muoh depend* upon the iasue. Tbe position of the center ding parties have already been defined, from tbe drift of eiroumstanoea manifested in tbe psst history of each; one for building np, and uniting into a perminent gov ernment, a distracted country, tbe other with reckless cupidity, seeking to dis honor and sever a people, for no other purpose thsn to gratify a malignant hate, and the selfish principle of party policy We eaonot dwell on the proba ble miseries, that would bo ours, were we to suffur throughout tho next admin istration under Rtdical rule. Weeould not, like Hamlet, with tbe thought de cide as to its being the better to bare tbe ills we would have, than rush to others we know not of. It is truly a bard question, to say the least of it, and the surest plan for us, is to use every effort to prevent these ills, while we may. Romeo.

We should believe that General Lee eti.'l held his position before Petersburg, and kept tbe foe at bay. That tbe Ciufeds eraies were mus'eriog still in all quar t*rs of tbe Boutb, «nd that they were marching in tanks, with all "tbe pomp and eircumstaooi *of glorious war,” to annihilate tbe fed>ral forces. We should expect daily reports of McGlrl lau’a sdvsooe upou Richmond, and glo- rious Stonewall Jackrou’a prngr.es "down tbo Valley.” In a word, if tbe South were to be moved ouly by what we read io Radical pipers, the "war spirit*’ of her people would be stired from the very bottom of tbeir hearts, and there would be snoh an ouiburs, from Virginia to Texas as would make ibis whole region manifestly unbealtbyt •s a residence for "Bureau agents” or whiskey-inspectors.” But bow differ ent with us T Disdaining to be die urb ed by the fi rce barking ot the Greeley.-, end Forneys, and their crew, the South ern people are persuing tbe even tenor ot tbeir way with a settled purpose to rely npoo tbe justice ot tbe Northern masses in tbe November election.

Toe Constitutteu is tbe shee'.-aoobor of our liberties, tbe ouly security we bave for the preservation of order, and rights of the of property and or person. Tbe Radical dogma, that tbe Const itutioD can be set sside by a Cons gression il enactment,by the result of aD election, by a noisy outbreak of popular passion, or the feverish unanimity of de signing demagogues, or of an excited press, is s crime against eivil govern ment, aod au insult to liberty regulated by law.

N Jeflnes, of the United States steamer, Swatara, lately cruising on the African coast, writes to (he Navy Department sn account of a visit to Monrovia, in February last, when he called upon the President of that colony, and found evidences of the success of the attempt to plant civilisa tion in Afrioa, though he thinks that there is a great need of capital and want of agricultural laborers. Too many of the immigrants being from Northern cities and of mixed blood, who are una ble to stand the climate. Conversing with some of the leadiog members of •he Government, on tbe quecions now agitating our own country, Commander J. found them unanimou-ly of the opin ion that universal suffrage to emancipa ted negroes would be iijurious, using the argument, >-we do not allow natives amoog us to vote, unless they have been educated in our scoooU, believing them to be no more competent to understand the limited the limited questions of in ternal and external policy of this little repubiio than the comparatively unedu ea ed colored masses at home (they all allude to America as home) as able to understand your numerous and compli cated ones."
