The Cow Pea as a Fertilizer Tar Wheat.
We have long been satisfied, from actual
experiment, that the common cow pea of
the Southern States, when properly man
aged, afford the best and, at the same time,
the cheapest medium for the restoration of
our exhausted cotton fields. Its effects
have been as lasting and as marked upon
the fertility of our soils as that of clover
upon the worn and exhausted lands of
Virginia and Maryland.
The main reason why the cow pea has
not been heretofore extensively used as a
fertilizer was owing to the fact that previ
ous to emancipation our planters would
not give up a sufficient portion of their
lands to await the rather slow effects of
this most valuable fertilizer. Now, how
ever, when every planter has a large pro
portion of his poor lands lying idle, there
is no excuse why the pea should not be set
in every field not absolutely necessary for
corn or cotton.
Now is the best time to plant the pea,
and we desire to give our agricultural
friends the result of a careful experiment
made by a planter in Gwinnett county to
encourage them to make similar efforts.
Our Gwinnett planter had a piece of old
exhausted land, twenty acres of which
had been lying in Broom sage for a num
ber of years. This he broke deep with a
turn plow in the Summer, and in the
succeeding Kail put down in wheat. The
crop, carefully measured, was a little less
than four bushels to the acre.
As soon as the wheat was cut he sowed
peas at the rate of two bushels to the acre.
Early in October the peas were turned
under with a deep furrow, and a tew
weeks later wheat was sown and carefully
harrowed in upon the pea sod. The yield
from the crop was nine bushels to the
acre, a little more than double the first
year’s crop.
The field was again sown in peas as soon
as the wheat was harvested and turned
under as before in the Fall, and wheat
sown upon the soil. The yield this year
was seventeen and a half bushels.
The fourth year, wit h the same treat
ment, he made twenty-seven bushels, and
this (the fifth year) the crop bids fair to
make forty bushels. Nothing has been
applied to tbo land as a fertilizer except
the pea, and we find that in five years, with
the cow pea alone, the production has been
increased tenfold. This actual experiment
speaks more for the pea than any argu
ment which we could make.
VVc trust some of our planting friends
will be induced to try the pea on the next
crop of wheat and let us know the result
of their experiment.
Concerning tiie Wheat and Cotton
Crops.— The Savannah Republican, of
the 4th instant, says : “The steamship
Herman Livingston, which sailed for New
York yesterday afternoon, carried among
her freight twenty-five barrels of flour of
the new crop. The first shipment of one
barrel was made by the Leo on Tuesday
last.”
The Columbus Enquirer says : “New
wheat was ground at the Palace Mills yes
terday. It turned out fine looking flour.
This would be a moderate good bread
country if it had half a chanoe.’’
The Covington Examiner says : “The
past few days have been very favorable to
young cotton. Wo are pleased to learn
that the general stand of ootton is much
better than was anticipated a week or two
since.
"The wheat crop is now considered out of
danger of being injured by rust, the cool
nights and dry weather having operated
very beneficially to the crop in this respect.
We heard of some farmers in this section
that have already harvested their wheat,
and tho general crop is rapidly maturing
for the sickle.”
The Savannah Republican says: “Green
corn. This excellent vegetable made its first
appearance for the season in our market
yesterday, and in respectable quantities for
a beginning. A half dollar will buy a dish
ful for a medium size family.”
The Home Courier says: “There has
been a very considerable decline in wheat
in this market in tho last few days. A No.
1 ardele of red now commanding only
$1 .40.”
Chop News.— The editor of the Albany
News visited Worth oounty last week, and
writes :
We found tho planters generally hope
lul of crop prospects, and heard no oom
plaints exqept of backwardness. Corn and
cotton looks well, but are behind time
several weeks. The orops are in a better
condition than we have ever seen them, and
it is generaliy conceded that this hot
weather and the rains we are now having
will bring them out.
We met an intelligent gentleman from
Monticello, Florida, who authorized us to
say that there are no caterpillas in Florida.
He informed us that crops were olean and
promising, though baokward. The worm
which was by some mistaken for the cater
pillar, has disappeared, and the cotton
plant is h.althy and vigorous.

Editors Chronicle & Sentinel:
Silts : Your constantly crowded weekly
issues heralds fresh tidings (either of evil or
good report) in regard to the agricultural
progrossiveness of our glorious old Empire
State.
But I have failed to see any report from
Camden. How is this ? Why, sirs, we
are not in tho background by any means.
A more salubrious climate or attractive
section of country is nowhere to be found
beneath the sun of Heaven. And while
our soil is not so excessively rich as the
extended valleys of the “Father of
waters,” yet, if tho eye of discernment
and the baud of industry were fully
brought into requisition, then, even would
the old North State disdain her hour of
plenty.
Why, sirs, we do not claim to be any
thing more or less than only a certain
number of particles possessing determinate
career. For some of us down here are con
tent with the long staple cotton, as wo
prefer it to the short—such a thing as
you editors would oondescend to barter
away your learning for.
Our good people have felt pretty well
interested this season in planting as much
of the above named article as they well
could, but the reoent oold spells have in
flicted much injury to our young cotton.
The caterpillar, too, has, in some sections,
thrown a damper on tbe would-be sanguine
expectations ot the farmer. Yet, in spite
of every obstacle and barrier, we may
make enough to live upon—no more. We
dou’t care a farthing, either, whether cot
ton brings a bad or a good prioe ; as in
either case we would not have a “rod cent”
left.
The past Winter was colder than the
older inhabitapts have experienced for
twenty years, and an old wide-awake farm
er observed to me, only on yesterday, that
he thought the very laws of nature (as
well as the order of things) were reversing
—that Summer would take the place of
Winter, and, vice a versa.
Then, our crops are more backward than
usual, ind do not think there will be any
more cotton made with us during the pres
ent thau the preceding year." although
more strenuous efforts have been made by
a few with the hope of better providing
the little necessaries for the comfort of our
homes and families.
The Scuppernong Grape is well adapted
to this soil and elimate. Our eounty can
boast of some of the most luxuriant and
prolific vines “out of the Union.” And
our peach orchards are quite promising.
We will have a goodly number of this most
delicious fruit.
It will be remembered that our so-called
“Joe Collards,” during our late struggle
of glorious manhood, caused to be taken
up the T iron on our Albany and Bruns
wick Railroad, for purposes best known to
himself. And there has been little or
nothing done since to refit this important
road until now. A gentleman of Bruns
wick told me, a few days since, that full
arrangements had been made to restore to
us again this much needed Railway line.
\\ hile our hearts despair in feeling and
sorrow over the cherished reminiscences of
the past, our thoughts go forth to a pros
pective in search of sunshine and pleasure.

Crops.— Never, since the year 1855
have the crop prospects been so gloomy a*
now. Both eorn and cotton are very un
promising in appearance. Much of the
former i» wilting for lack of rain, a great
deal of the latter has not yet peeped above
the ground from the same deficiency of
moisture. The drought is truly alarming.
1 ciitically and agriculturally, the South is
in a bad way. the past is unhappy, the
present is gloomy, and the contemplation
of tbe future is sad —Tuscaloosa Monitor.

ADMI’ sj OF THE CONVENTION COitMITTEE.
We publish below, by the kind permis
sion of its able writer, Robert T. Saunders,
Esq.. the report made to the Convention,
rectutly in session in Memphis upon the
subject of the world's cotton supply, and
of tne question of Labor and Immigration,
connected with that important subject, by
the committee, of which Mr. Saunders
was Chairman. It will be found full of
important facts, well stated, from which
arc drawn jußt and striking inferences.
So important is the document esteemed,
that it has been ordered (o be translated
into French, and an appropriation
made for that purpose. The statements
of the supply, present and prospective, of
India, Egypt, the Brazils, and other
places, will be found of great interest and
value. This document will be extensively
circulated throughout England, France,
Belgium, and Holland :
Memorial to the “ Cotton Supply Associa
tion of Manchester ,” England, and tc
the “National Association of Cotton
Manufacturers and Planters' of the
United States, and through these Asso
ciations to the Cotton Spinners of Eu
rope and America :
We, a special committee from the Com
mercial Convention now sitting in the city
of Memphis, Tennessee, as memorialists,
represent that we are closely connected
with the cotton trade now carried on be
tween Great Britain and America, and
deeply interested in all that relates to the
progress, prosperity and commerce of both
countries.
The extensive mercantile relations exist
ing between the two countries, which are
every year increasing in magnitude and
importance render it highly expedient and
desirable in the opinion of your memo
rialists, that more accurate information be
givea respecting the condition and advan
tages now afforded for increasing the future
“cotton supply” in the United States,
inasmuch as great interest is now being
manifested by the cotton spinners, both of
Europe and America, respecting a suffi
cient supply of the “raw material,” at a
cheaper price and in greater quantity.
On tho 2d of .March the memorials of
the “Cotton Supply Association,” the
“Cotton Spinners’ Association,” and the
Chamber of Commerce of Manchester,
England, to the Duke of Argyle, the princi
pal Secretary of State for India, in coun
cil, urged a special Cotton Bureau for
India, inasmuch as they look to that coun
try for relief in case of failure of supply
from America.
The report of the Cotton Supply Asso
ciation says : “There appears to be little
probability that the production of cotton
in America will, for many years to come,
be adequate to the requirements of this
and other countries ; your memorialists,
therefore, believe that India is the great
source to which they must look for en
larged supplies that are so urgently need
ed,” etc.
Though we hail with pleasure any exer
tions to increase the supply of cotton in
India and all other countries, we can but
think that to tho Southern States of
America, at last, must we look for any
permanent increase in the supply of the
“raw material.” In East India, Egypt,
Algeria, and the Levant, as in Brazil,
Peru, and the West Indies, there are
many difficulties attendant upon any per
manent increase in the future growth of
cotton, and in furnishing such cotton, at a
cheaper price, in sufficient quantity ta sup
ply the wants of the world.
Can these countries grow cotton at a cost
of s x pence per pound? If they cannot,
then are they unable to compete with the
United States.
In East India the difficulty of obtaining
any tenure to the soil; the rude and insuffi
cient means of transportation; tho tropical
nature of the climate, deluging the land
for one-half the year with rain, and parch
ing it with drouth the other half, stamp it
as a clime but poorly suited to the growth
of a plant requiring so long and so regular
a supply of moisture to mature its fruit
—all of which work against any speedy in
crease in the supply of cotton from that
country. Out of 16,000,000 acres annual
ly appropriated to cotton growing, the
largest yield for exportation was in 1866
(when stimulated by high prices), and did
reach 1,840,648 bales—decreasing in 1867
to 1,508,903 bales, and in 1868 to 1,420,576
bales—averaging three hundred and forty
seven pounds. In the district of Ovissa,
and iu Eastern Bengal, when the large
crop of 1866 was made, over 1,350,000
souls perished Irom starvation, produced
by put'ing in cotton lards that should have
been appropriated to breadstuff's. It is
now predicted that the cotton crop of East
India will still further be reduced the pres
ent year—declining, perhaps, to 1,250,000
bales.
In Egypt a more strict system of irriga
tion is adhered to, and the heavy expendi
tuies for canal dues, steam machinery, and
English coal for sues, to raise water from
the Nile, with the high price of cotton
lands, joined to enormous taxes exacted by
the Government, will discourage to a great
degree any further increase in cotton sup
ply. Besides, in 1865, when a large at
tempt at cotton growing was made, some
350,000 of the popu ation of Egypt perish
ed from actual starvation. The yield that
year, 1864-65, was 404,411 bales, and since
that time has never been attained. Only
193,035 bales were imported into Great
Britain the past year, averaging five hun
dred pounds each.
Though the Viceroy of Egypt and the
Sultan of Turkey have both been recently
memoralized by tho “Manchester Cotton
Supply Association”- respeeting the future
growth of larger crops of cotton throughout
their dominions, the yield has not in
creased to any extent in Egypt, and both
Turkey and Greece together only exported
the past year into Liverpool 12,623 bales of
ootton.
Smyrna cut down her fig and fruit trees
in 1864, for tbe purpose of growing cotton,
but has new abandoned it, while the rest
of the Levant, except for domestic pur
poses, has given it up altogether.
South America is steadily increasing in
the production of cotton, but so slowly it
does not amount to much. The past year
the yield was 180,000 bales more than in
the year 1867. But, as the bales in Brazil
only average 155 pounds, and those in the
West Indies and Peru only 180 pounds,
the actual increase for the whole of South
America and tho West Indies, reduced to
the American standard of 500 pounds
each, does not amount to over 65,000 bales
of cotton for the past year. This increase,
however, in South America, does not atone
to the cotton world for the decrease in
East India the past year, which amounts
to 88,327 bales, and compared with 1866,
to 430,072 bales, and not as many pounds
of raw cotton were imported into Great
Britain in 186S as during the year 1866.
Brazil and Peru are dependent almost
solely upon irrigation for the production of
their cotton crops. The Pernambuco,
Maceio, Bahia and Santos cottons, so
favorably known in the European mar
kets, are produced by damming up the
“rigollcttas,” or rivulets of melted snow
that come from the Cordilleras, and thus,
dusing the Summer months, furnishing
means of irrigation, so necessary in that
arid climate to the maturity of the cotton
plant. But for the terraces and irrigating
canals of Peru, whieh convey the melt°d
snows from the Andes, she oould not grow
cotton at all —and even now her crop is
very small, for that imported into Liver
pool the past year amounted only to 58,911
bags, of 180 pounds—equivalent to a little
over 21,000 bales of 600 pounds each.
While that of Brazil, although it amounts
to 629,502 bales, of 155 pounds each, wh“n
reduced to 500 pound bales, amounts only
to a little over 195,000 bags.
But America is the home of the cotton
plant, and the Southern States of America
the only country where cotton can be pro
duced successfully and regularly without
resorting to the artificial means of irriga
tion. It is to those States that the trade
must then look to furnish the deficiency in
“cotton supply” for the world.
American cottons are of more general
utility, both for warp and wool, than those
of other countries. In Europe they are
used almost exclusively for warp, while
the filling is of India or some other less
costly cotton. The world, therefore, re
quires not only a large supply, and a cheap
supply of cotton, but a supply of a peculiar
kind and quality.
There are. properly speaking, now in
use three kinds of classes of cotton.
Ist. The “Sea Island.” or long stapled
cottons, grown principally on the coasts of
Florida, Georgia and South Carolina. Os
this denomination of cotton, comparatively
tbe consumption is small.
21. The medium long staple cottons of
American growth, denominated in Liver
pool “Uplands” and “New Orleans:'' in
the United States known as New Orleans.
Texas, Mobile, Savannah, Charleston and
“Memphis cottons." It is stated that
prior to the war, that nine bags of Ameri
can cotton was used to one bag of all other
descriptions put together. The American
cottons are used almost entirely in Euro
pean factories for warp, while the woof or
filling is of other less costly grades. For
the warp or extended threads, strength
and length of fibre is especially required:
while lor the weft or transverse threads of
the loom.softness and fullness are the chief
requisites. No other cotton is better
adapted as to strenth and length, either to
spin into the higher numbers, or to sustain
the tension and friction to which the
threads are exposed in the loom.
3d. The short staple cotton —used almost
exclusively for weft or filling. It is dryer,
“fuzzier,” more like rough wool, and
principally grown in India.
It is. therefore, seen that while the cot
ton spinners of Europe require only to a
limited extent the first and third classes of
raw cotton, viz : Sea Island and India
cottons—of second class, or medium staple
cottons of American growth, they need
and can oonsume an almost unlimited
supply.
It is the insufficient supply and the high
price of American cotton than has driven
English manufacturers upon the short sta
pled native article of India—called
“Surat.” But so beautifully have the
manufacturers reduced the system of mix
ing the two into fabrics, that the more
American cotton manufactured in England,
the greater will be the necessity for Surat
cotton ; and the less American cotton that
is passed through British looms, the small
er will be the quantity of Surat taken.
It must, therefore, be borne in mind
that the great desideratum now for Eu
rope is not simply one of more cotton—but
more cotton and at a cheaper price of the
character and quality of that growth in the
southern States of America.
If India were to send to Great Britain
three millions of bales of cotton, in place
of the fifteen hundred thousand she now
furnishes, the desideratum would not be
supplied—and she would still be almost as
dependent on America as ever. She can
not grow the needed character of cotton,
and the growth of British India must con
tinue to command attention only when bet
ter descriptions cannot be obtained.
Although several quarters of the worll
supply the long staple—and India f’uf
nishes enormous quantities of the short
staple—the United States of America
have hitherto produced the medium and
most necessary kinds, and unless Ameri
can production can be stimulated and in
creased, the cotton trade of the wor'td must
suffer to an enormous txtent..
Tne cotton interests of Europe and
America alone furnish an annual supply
of over 6,000,000 of bales of ootton to keep
their machinery moving—whereas, the
actual available production of the world
will not amount the present year to 5,000,-
000 of bales.
Granting that East India and the United
States may make full average crops of
cotton, the most favorable production can
not supply the deficiency.
Say for the crop of the cotton year 1869:
East India, more thanlastyear...l,soo,ooo
Egypt “ “ “ / 230,000
Turkey, Levant, etc., more than
last year 12,500
Brazil, Peru, and West Indies,
same as last year 707,500
United States sources more than
last year 2.50*1,000
All other sources 50,000
Making a liberal estimate of. 5,000,000
for the production of the world, while the
consumption is over 6,000,000, leaving the
apparent deficit in supply in the “raw ma
terial” over 1,000,000 bales of cotton, at
the end of the present year.
The cotton crop of the world does not
now'amount to four millions of bales,
averaging 500 pounds, and exclusive of
the United States, the available produc
tion of the globe does not much exceed
eighteen hundred thousand bales, of the
same average.
How to supply this deficit is the ques
tion, and how to supply it with the needed
character of cotton.
From the census of 1860, it is ascertain
ed that the cotton crop of the United
States for the year 1859-60 amounted to
five millions one hundred and ninety six
thousand nine hundred and forty-four bales,
of 400 pounds each. The same crop if re
duced to 500 pounds each, shows a yield
for that cotton year of forty-one hundred
and fifty seven thousand five hundred and
fifty bales—a larger quantity of cotton than
is now produced on the globe. Since 1861
the largast yield was that of the past year,
amounting to twenty-four hundred and
thirty thousand eight hundred and ninety
three bales of cotton.
W e have the same soil, the same pecu
liar climate, influenced by the Gulf stream,
causing a regular system of irrigation from
the clouds wafted from tho bosom of the
Southern seas, and producing the moisture
and heat so requisite during the Summer
months to thp health and vitality of the
cotton plant. All the natural advantages
possessed by the Southern States for the
culture of their principal staple remains.
But we want labor—and with an abund
ance of labor the increase of cotton would
not only be commensurate with the wants
of the world, but the cost of production as
the increase progressed would bo lessened
by an unerring law governing all trade.
At present it is estimated that nearly
one-half of the cleared lands of the South
are uncultivated, for want of labor, and
therefore the cost of which labor is now
acquired, and cotton produced, is dis
proportionately dear.
Tho area of the ten largest cotton-grow
ing States —North Carolina, South Caro
lina. Georgia, Florida, Alabama,Mississip
pi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas and Ten
nessee —is s'x hundred and sixty-six thou
sand one hundred and ninety-six square
miles, or four hundred and twenty-six
millions three hundred aou sixty-five thou
sand four hundred and forty acres. If we
add Missouri and Virginia we embrace a
territory of over eight hundred thousand
square miles —almost as large as the aggre
gate area of Great Britain, France, Prus
sia, Austria and Italy. The single cotton
State of Texas is larger than either Great
Britain, France, Prussia or Italy, and
nearly equal in area to the Austrian Em
pire. Southwestern Missouri might, with
great oropriety, bo entered in the list, as
the Bureau of Statistics at Washington
now report nearly as large an average yield
per acre from that State as any other,
thereby cotP'rining the theory that the
“Isothermal line,” or lines of equal heat,
do not correspond with the parallels of
latitude, but diverge from given points on
the Atlantic seaboard,in a northwestwardly
direction, dimonstrating the fact that
Cfilumbia, in South Carolina, is not much
warmer, if any, than New Madrid, in
Southwestern Missouri, though two de
grees farther South.
In confirmation of these scientific obser
vations, the experience of a few years past
has shown that Tennessee, which was for
merly scarcely considered a cotton State,
now ranks high among the cotton produc
ing, and third among the cotton receiving,
States ; and that lands lying along the
northern edge of the cotton belt produce
sure and steady crops, being less liable to
the “cotton worm” and the “rot,” al
though the product per acre is not so
much as farther South.
From a region, then, of such vast extent,
what might we not expect if there were
union of effort amongst those interested,
to stimulate a larger production ? Practi
cally, there is no limit to the ootton pro
duction of these States.
If the cotton spinners of the United
States of America, whose interests are
identified with the cotton planters who
have been favoring railway and wild land
speculations in the far West, instead of
turning the tide of immigration to the
open fields of the South, would now pur
sue a contrary course and lend us their aid,
the production of the “raw material”
could soon Ift increased. If the “National
Association of Cotton Manufacturers and
Planters” of the United States would di
rect public attention to the subject, it
would materially assist us.
If the “Cotton Supply Association”
and the “Cotton Spinner’s Association,”
of Manchester, England, would induce a
surplus portion of the population of Great
Britain and Europe to come amongst us
and assist in cultivating our unoccupied
cotton lands, then would Lancashire be
greatly bonefitted and saved tho fears of
future “cotton famines,” with the cer
tainty of being furnish and the “raw ma
terial” at a cheaper price than it can be
produced in any other quarter of the globe.
The planters and ryots of India will not
grow cotton unless stimulated by high
prices. The imperfect system of irriga
tion, the constant determination of exoric
or American Gotton seed, necessitating
large outlays annually for their importa
tion, the poor means of transportation,
and the great difficulty of obtaining bread
stuffs in the interior of that remote coun
try, will deter them from risking it and
increasing the production to much extent,
unless they are paid remunerative prices.
The lands of Egypt are too valuable and
the cultivation of the “great staple” at
tended with too much expense, to grow
cotton to aDy extent at a less price than
twelve to fifteen pence per pound. The
lands along the banks of the Nile, suited
to cotton growing, all command from
twenty to forty pounds sterling ($l6O to
S2OO iu gold) per acre. Besides, the ara
ble land in Egypt is confined to a very
narrow strip along both banks ot the Nile,
most of whioh must continue to be culti
vated in cereals for the support of its al
ready overpowered population. The re
mainder of the country is but 3 desert of
burning, moving sands—the sport of the
Simoon and the home of the Sirocco.
We stand to day upon the soil of a cot
ton State worth more to the world than
the whole of South America and the West
Indies. The State of Tennessee is credit
ed in the last annual cotton statement with
three hundred and seventy-:our thousand
eight hundred and sixty bales of cotton,
averaging over 443 pounds per bale.
The production of Brazil, reduced to the
same standard of 443 pounds per bale,
would give a yield the past cotton year of
220,256 bales: Peru, 24,837 bales, and the
West Indies, 8.382 bales, making total
crop for exportation, 253,477 bales from
South America and West Indies. Not
more than was received by the city of
Memphis the past season; for Memphis re
ceived the past cotton year 253,207 tales,
and so far this season has already received
over 245,000 bales cotton.
The Yazoo basin, in the State of Missis
sippi. lying immediately south of Tennes
see. bounded on the west by the Mississip
pi River, and on the south and on the east
by Yazoo. Tallahatchie and Cold Water
rivers, covers an area of nearly four mil
lions of acres, and is worth more as a cotton
country to the world than the whole of
Egypt. From the Tennessee line to the
mouth of the Yazoo, not a stream enters
the Mississippi River for 360 miles, pos
sessing in this respect superior physical
advantages for easy aDd safer protection
to any other portion of the Mississippi Val
ley.
In 1860 the State of Mississippi produced
1,262,507 bales of cottoD; and it is esti
mated that of this amount nearly one-fourth
was produced in the delta of the Yazoo.
Here waa the wildest portion of the inland
sea which once occupied the lower valley
of the Mississippi. Its exceeding fitness
is Nile-like, without the aridity of Egypt
Its soil resexnbles, in fitness, the silt of the
ocean’s bed, and is enriched by the opu
lence of the sea and the munificence of the
land in the dead organisms of former pro
lific and vigorous life, which furnish in
abundance the lime and potash and other
elements wliich cotton requires. It is the
most fertile and productive cotton domain
on this continent, and cotton should, as an
act of justice to the cotton-spinDers of the
North, and to the cotton-growers of the
South, to repair at least the “Yazoo
Pass,” and the portion of the levees that
were destroyed for military purposes dur
ing the late civil war. With the levees up
aDd secure from inundation, the successful
cultivation of the Yazoo delta would alone
secure annually an addition to the Ameri
can cotton crop of 1,000,000 of bales.
Cheap cotton, theD. and in sufficient
supply, is what the world requires and
mu-t have. Lancashire and the continent
of Europe must obtain cheaper cotton, or
their mills must stop. For the past two
years they have paid for “American mid
dlings” and “fair Egyptians” an average
of over ten pence per pound ; and many
mills are now closed, or working on “short
time,” in consequence cf the continued
high price of raw cotton.
\Vith the levees up, the freedman would
seek the alluvial lands of the Mississippi
Valley, finding there a better reward for
his labor. The climate agrees with him,
and he with the elimate. With an intelli
gent white immigration settling upon the
“uplands” of the cotton States ; with
smaller farms and improved seeds ; with
deep plowing, commercial manures, an en
lightened system of cultivation—using all
the appliances of improved husbandry, and
employing every available means to render
the soil increasingly productive—we could
easily extend the yield of'the Southern cot
ton crops again to five millions, in place of
two millions five hundred thousand bales.
It is estimated that Georgia alone, the
present year, has consumed over twenty
thousand tons of commercial manures, in
guanos and phosphates, in improving her
cotton lands. The product is doubled by
it, the cultivation of one-half the area is
saved, aßd the laborer has time to devote
to the cereals and fruits, making life on a
cotton plantation more agreeable to the
habits and tastes of the white man. This
revolution has been inaugurated by David
Dickson, Esq , of Sparta, Ga., who last
year invested thirteen thousand dolla s in
commercial manures with great profit, and
who, in the midst of his extensive opera
tions, has found time, by judicious selec
tions and crosses, to introduce the bestcot
ton seed in America.
We commend this system to the atten
tion of the cotton trade, because they can
safely advise immigrants to come to the
healthy and well watered “uplands” of the
South, with a fair prospect of growing cot
ton successfully, without the constant
drudgery which was once thought necessary
to its production, and at the same time
surrounding their little habitations with
the luxuries and comforts which they have
been accustomed to in their Northern and
European homes. For although necessity
may compel the introduction of laborers
from the half civilized Pagan races of the
earth, we confess we have a strong prefer
ence for those of a higher stamp, and who
will ultimately make good citizens, merged
into our population.
There is a great mistake generally made
in regard to the amount of labor now em
ployed in : e civilization of cotton. When
the emancipation occurred the planters
made great efforts to associate the laborers
together on their large plantations, but the
system has been completely broken down
and given place to the “squad system,”
where from two to eight hands only work
together in many instances, a single family.
The “squad system” on large plantations
is mush less productive than the old system
of “associated labor,” as there is no con
cert of action and fair division of labor,
according to the recognized laws of politi
cal economy.
The freedman is unambitious of rccu
mulation, but shows great anxiety to have
his little home, with his horse, cow and
hogs separate and apart from others.
Therefore, he strenuously insists on a full
grain crop for subsistence of his family and
stock, and only a moderate cotton crop.
Go a majority of the plantations, in pro
jecting the cotton crop, the freedwomen
are entirely ignored, and are left to attend
to the household and the garden, except
when the season is very difficult, when
they give some assistance to their hus
bands and fathers in the cultiva ion, and
also occasionally in the gathering of the
crop. This fact in itself is sufficient to
account iu no small degree for the- disap
pearance of a large proportion of tho effi
i cierit. labor once directed specially to the
production of cotton. Perhaps it is more
potent in this direction than the loss, by
death in the negro population during the
late war, now variously estimated from
five hundred thousand to one million of
souls. The labor most efficient, and now
most to be depended on, is that of the
older negroes, whose habits of industry
have been confirmed. The young negroes
growing up since the war are generally
idle, fond of pleasure, impatient of the
control of their parents, and do not give
promise of much usefulness.
The total number of slaves in all the
American States and Territories, accord
ing to the census of 1860 was three millions
nine hundred and fifty-three thousand and
seven hundred and sixty. The ten cotton
growing States, however, contained but
three millions and thirty thousand two
hundred and forty five. Os this number
not twelve hundred thousand were culti
vators cf our “great staple.” The re
mainder, less the men and women who
were too old, and the children who were
too young, being employed in other kinds
of agriculture, in mechanical pursuits and
as house servants. It would be safe to say
that not over half this number(six hundred
thousand freedmen) are now employed in
the cultivation of cotton. What propor
tion of white labor is so employed is hard
to conjecture; but even estimating it as
high as 20,000, that with the labor of the
freedmen, at the high average of three
bales to the would not give an an
nual yield of over 2,400,000 bales of cotton.
It may be that the estimate of 600,000
freedmen, now employed in the cultiva
tion of cotton, is too small, and the lessen
ing of the cotton crop may be owing in
some degree' to the fact that less cotton
per head is planted, and more grain since
the war. But it is quite apparent, that if
the amount of white labor now engaged in
the cultivation of cotton does not amount
to one fourth, it is certainly on the in
crease, stimulated by present remunera
tive prices.
Another mistake generally made, is in
overestimating the cotton yield per acre of
the United States. It requires three acres
on an average to make one bale of cotton,
and only in a few instances does the cen
sus record a larger yield.
In 1860, in the parish of Tensas, in
Louisiana, and in San Augustine county,
Texas, a bale of cotton was made to the
acre waighing four hundred pounds. In
East India the average yield from indige
nous or native seed, is one bale for nine
acres; but since the introduction of exotic,
or American seed, the yield per acre has
beeu greatly improved.
No material increase in tho production
of cotton cau be expected from the South
ern States, unless our supply j>f labor is
increased by immigration.
Notwithstanding the remarks of Hon.
Rererdy Johnson, who recently,, in the
Town Hail at Manchester, assured the peo
ple of Lancashire, that “when free labor
comes lo be properly developed and or
ganized,” Manchester would rejoice, not
only in four or five, but in a few years, in
six or seven millions ofbalesfrom America,
we are forced to the conclusion that the
average yield of the Southern cotton crop',
with the present labor system, cannot ex
ceed 2,500,000. Could we grow 3,000,000,
it could not be picked and saved. His
hearers, the English people, have had some
experience in “developing and organizing
free labor” in their West India possessions
for nearly a generation, and they are better
julges than that distinguished diplomatist,
whose experience extends only over the
past three years. Such remarks clearly
show what errors men of distinguished
abilities fall iota, when they leave the
sphere in which they usually revolve, and
venture to give opinions on subjects of
whieh they have no practical information.
So far from looking for any speedy in
crease in the cotton crops of the United
States, we fe2r on the other hand that
labor in cotton culture is fast diminishing.
It is from three causae : Emigration from
the cotton fields to towns and cities ; the
deaths on the plantations, and the retiring
of women from cotton growing. Nothing
but the free use of fertilizers aud the best
success in cultivating the land planted can
keep the average cotton yield with the
present labsr up to two and a half millions
•of bales- The picking power—the quan
tity that can be picked—is the limit of our
capacity in producing cotton, and, even if
the present labor could produce more, we
could not save more.
We do not think the deterioration of the
negro labor will subside here so low as it
has done in the British West Indies, on
account of the climate of the Southern
States being more rigorous, demanding
more clothing, and the absence of indige
nous and tropical fruits, on which they aie
fed so larelv there. This fact will create a
necessity on the part of these inoffensive
and easily contented people for a larger
amount of work to secure their subsistence.
But for this difference the results in both
countries would be identically the same.
Improved lands can now be had in any
of the cotton States at prices varying from
one to five pounds sterling—five to twenty
five dollars —per acre, and farming uten
sils and work stock can be purchased at
fair prices. The great aversion that pro
prietors formerly Had to the sub-division
of their plantations, is now rapidly giving
way, and land can now be purchased or
leased in convenient lots of any size.
Whilst we candidly admit that there is a
great aversion in the Southern mind to
political adventurers, who come into our
midst for the sole purpose of foisting
themselves into office, we can insure im
migrants (no matter from what quarter
they may come), who are honest and in
dustrious, men who come to seek homes
among us, and to add to the wealth and.
prosperity of the country, that they will
meet everywhere with a friendly and most
hearty welcome.
With the many inducements now present
ed, to purchase cheap, healthful lands and
comfortable homes, in a country possess
ing natural advantages unequalled in any
other portion of the cotton world, does it
not behoove the cotton trade, both of
Europe and America, to direct public at
tention and immigration to us, and aid us
in working our unoccupied cotton fields?
By so doffig, they would indirectly benefit
themselves and very materially aid us.
Every variety of climate and soil is pre
sented in the cotton belt, stretching from
the Atlantic to the Rio Grande, and from
the Ohio River to the Gulf of Mexico.
The sun of heaven shines not on a land
more varied in soil, climate, and pro
duction, or better fitted for the habitation
of man.
In consideration of all these advantages,
your Memorialists ask that the influence
of your associations be exerted in direct
ing intending emigrants to these States—
believing them to be the best cotton pro
ducing districts on the globe—and that
with requisite labor there is no limit prac
ticallyi to their facilities for the production
of raw cotton—and that, too, at the com
paratively low figure of six pence per
pound.

NATURE’S REMEDY FOR CHRONIC
DISEASES! •
Medical Properties and Uses of the Water.
This water combines in a remarkable
degre those properties which render it a
remedial agent of peculiar, perhaps of un
equal value for the eradication of disease
and the restoration of health.
The extraordinary cures which have
beeu made by it in many Chronic Diseases,
and in some cases which seemed almost
hopeless, justly entitle it to rank with the
most famous Mineral Springs of Virginia
and the world. Indeed there is strong
reason to believe that in many of the most
serious, unmanageable and widely pre
vailing diseases thatafflict the human race,
the Cold Sulphur Water is not only the
most safe, mild and pleasant, but also the
most certain and effectual remedy yet dis
covered.
Under its benign, revolutionizing and
renovating influences, many chroDic mala
dies vanish like the mist of the morning
under the unclouded rays of the sun ; the
ruddy glow of health revisits pallid cheeks
to which ithad become a stranger; in many
cases animation, elasticity, energy and
buoyancy supersede the bodily languor,
debility, irritation and disease which had
long reigned supreme iu the system, and
cheerful spirits, the natural companions of
vigorous health, take the place of that
gloomy and melancholy condition of the
mind which is the legitimate offspring of
physical suffering.
This water presents the rare combina
tion of Aperient, Diuretic, Diaphoretic,
Alterative, Tonic and Eutrophie proper
ties. Acting freely upon the Bowels, Liv
er, Kidneys and Skin, it thoroughly
purifies the blood, and eliminates from the
system the essential elements of disease;
while by its powerful Tonic and Eutrophie
action it invigorates the stomach; enriches
the vital fluid ; gives tone and energy to
the muscles and nerves; renovates the
entire organism, and re-establishes health
and strength.
In Dyspepsia, Liver Disease, Bilious
Complaints, Costiveness, and General De
bilily, it is a remedy of unsurpassed utili
ty and power.
Especially upon the STOMACH its in
fluence is prompt, decided and highly
beneficial. It speedily relieves heart
burn, inoreases the appetite and promotes
digestion, so that as a general rule persons
using it can eat with impunity, and that
all-important organ which supplies
strength and nutriment to the whole sys
tem is soon restored to a strictly normal
condition.
Being an efficient .4 per Lent and laxative,
it causes a regular and healthy action of
the bowels, and is a most admirable
remedy in cases of habitual constipation.
As an anti-bilious remedy it is unsur
passed.
Over the functions of the LIVER it ex
ercises the most powerful and salutary
control. If the bile be deficient in quanti
ty, it acts as a direct stimulus to the Liver,
aud surely though gradually forces the se
cretion up to a healthy standard! And
whether the liver be torpid aud obstruct
ed as in jaundice, or in an excited and ir
ritated condition, discharging an excess of
vitiated bile, thejudicious use of this wa
ter is equally efficacious in unloading the
vl-cus and ri storing the secretions to a
healthy state.
Being not only a free and powerful, but
mild and soothing DIURETIC, this water
exerts a decided, sedative and calmative
influence over the Urinary Organs ; and
has been pre-eminently successful in cases
of Inflammation, Irritation and Debility of
the Kidneys, Bladder and Urethra. Asa
remedy in stfch maladies it has no supe
rior.
In some Diseases Peculiar to Females
it is highly beneficial. Chlorosis and
Leucoirhwa will be readily cured by the
Sulphur and Chalybeate waters here.
Amenorrhcea and Dysmenorrhcee—when
purely functional diseases, and uncompli
cated by organic or structural derange
ment-will yield to the same means.
Cases of Erysipelas, Rheumatism and
Cutaneous Eruptions have been cured by
the Cold Sulphur Water. Asthma, Chronic
Bronchitis and Chronic Pneumonia will
either receive much relief and mitigation
from its use, or be entirely cure a by it.
Various Chronic functional and .rangements
of the Heart, the Brain, and the Lungs,
and some forms of Neuralgia, Gout and
Scrofula are, in fact, sgmpathetic or sec
ondary diseases, and have their prime
cause or origin in, and are kept alive by, a
deranged, enfeebled and irritable condi
tion of the stomach and alimentary canal.
In such cases the Cold Sulphur Water, by
virtue of its unequalled curative and res
torative powers in diseases of the Diges
tive Organs, is the appropriate remedy.
The great Alterative, Tonic, and Eu
trophic properties of this water are clearly
shown by the marked improvement of the
general health, and the increase of flesh
and strength which generally follow its
use.
In many cases so speedy and thorough
is its curative agency, that in the lan
guage of a distil guished physician, who
had himself seen its effects, “No one but
an eye-witness would believe in the
marvellously rapid change to aj normal
condition or that of health.”
Some of the cures which have been
made by it are of the most extraordinary
character. Cases which were apparently
of the most hopeless nature, for the relief
of which not only all the resources of
medical skill but the most celebrated Min
eral Springs of Virginia had been used in
vain, have been entirely and permanently
cured by the Cold Sulphur Water.
CHALYBEATE SPRING.
Besides the Sulphur Water, there is
upon the premises a fine Chalybeate
Spring, which possesses the well-known
virtues of waters of its class.
LOCATION, CLIMATE, etc.
This place is situated in the midst of the
mountains of Virginia—a region of coun
try which has long been famous for the
diversified character, beauty and gran
deur of its scenery. The climate in Sum
mer is delightful, salubrious and invig
orating.

S. Goode, Esq. :—Dcar Sir : In the Summer of 1851 f
discovered an insidi u.s pproach of Dyspispt c symptom*
of a Dyse* ceric character (then epidemically prevail n
in E '•'a..) which finally in my case resulted in an un
questionable ulceration of the I >wer portion of the colon,
with a gen- ral subacute irritation of the smal tr intes
tines. The u ceration continued for more than six months
in a very aggravated form, when in « ugust, 1852, I visit
ed the celebrated curative wa ers of the Rockbridge
A‘um, and alter using that water fifteen or twenty days I
was not materially improved, thinking it rather stimu
lating at that time. I left the Springs, but continued to
travel in the mountair s by brivate conveyance until I
could venture home, where I lemainedin a feeb’e condi
tion. In 1854, I returned by private means to the moun
tains, trav Hug and amusing myself by hunting, fishing,
&tc. In 1855,’0ti and ’57, I found no marked improvement
in my disease. In June 1858 I was seriously and suddenly
a - tacked in a more aggrava ed form, when I returned to
giv the Rockbridge Alum another trial, and after a stay
of severa. weeks I was much improved. During my visit
1 took n mycirriage a party of friende to the Cold Sul
phur (which was them in an embryo state of improve
ment), 1 was at once favorably imp eased with the water.
I next visited the Roc abridge Baths, where I remained a
month and was, 1 must Bay, decidedly benefitted, but
only temporarily. As again in the season of 1859 my
gene'al condition was becoming more serious by an ob
stinate costive condition of the bowels, with a consider
able thickening of the mucous membrani of the colon,
and by two physicians was pronounced tumorous This
season 1 visited the Warre i Springs, and from thence t<>
Hot Springs, using fir t the boiler for a orpidt liver and
Rhi umatism of thi spine. I was by this treatment im
proved as lar as the Rheumatic Symptoms were involved,
but no effect on the obstinate Liver, for in 1860 I was so
reduced in flesh and by continued constipation my nerv
ous system was so shattered, that it totally disqualifiedme
for any kind of business, suffering from acid stomach,
nervous debifity,palpi ation of the heart, with such obsti

the use of woo len bougies, under a rigia cont ction of

discharge from the bowels. In August, 186°, in this con.
dition I visited the Cold Suiphur Springs, wh re I re
mained a month, and from the constanr use of the water
(and bath occasionally,) I was relieved of acid stomach,
c-mstipa'ion, nervous debi 'ity, pripilation of the heart and
cod skin. My f«‘ ble pulse of fifty-four beats to the minute
was ies ore » to seventy-five, a usua ly healthy standard,

“Its use has aim'at invariably been high’y beneficial.
I have known it to cure cas.s of Dyspepsia, Liver Dis
