The Richmond Enquirer of June 11th contains a statement of the condition of parties in the Le gislature in which it reduces the administration strength, two votes from its former calculation. The following is its present calculation. Senate. House. Total. Van Uurcnites, IS 61 79 Whigs, 11 67 78 Conservatives, 3 3 6 Doubtful, 3 3 The Enquirer is the great leader of the ndmin- S|| istration in Virginia, and it thus admits that the IH Whigs and Conservatives have on joint ballot 84, ■ which is a majority of the whole. The Cotton Circular which we published some ■ days since, is the subject of much remark in the ■ Northern papers. It seems that the United H States Bank had no agency in the matter.— 9wc publish the following circular from S. V. MS. Wilder, who is to be the agent in this of Messrs. Hottcnguer & Co.

New York, 11th June, 1839. » . f Wo are requested to state that Mr. Bucking ham's illness prevented his delivery of his Lec tures on Palestine, when he was last in Augusta! his restoration to health will enable him to re deem his pledge of giving this course in our city before he leaves the South, provided that the number of his first audience should be sufficient to warrant his farther stay among us for that purpose. On Monday, (this evening) therefore, he will give his Introductory Lecture on tho Holy Land, at the Presbyterian Church, which has been kindly granted for this purpose, and the moder ate rate of admission at which the tickets arc fixed, as will he seen hy the advertisement in our I#** of to-day, will no doubt ensure a large and respectable attendance. Wc take great pleasure in giving place to the following article from the Athens Banner. Our readers will excuse us for occasionally devoting a considerable space in our paper to the subject of producing silk. Wc have not a doubt that it is destined at no very distant day, to become an important staple of Georgia. It can he produced upon lands which never can produce cotton, and by hands which can never labor in the cotton field. Those that arc too young and tender as well a* those that are too enfeebled by old age to endure labor in the burning sun to raise cotton, or the cold of winter to pick it out, can be profita bly and agreeably employed in raising silk. Wc feel that wc are doing the country a service in laying before our readers every thing which can enlighten them upon the subject, or invite them to action in promoting this new and important branch of industry. The Silk Business. This interesting brunch of industry is com manding increased attention, and is destined, wc confidently believe, to become, at no distant day, a favorite and profitable pursuits with the people of the South ; especially of that portion where the culture of cotton is not the all-absorbing oc cupation. We almost every day sec notices in tbe newspapers, of successful! experiments made season in feeding the worm, and while the ' present large bounty for cocoons is given by the State, we may expect to sec the business rapidly increase in extent and importance. In this neighborhood probably as much has been done as in any other section in this or the ad joining States, and the results have been in the highest degree encouraging. Although no buildings have been erected especially for cocoon eriea, nor the most suitable apparatus for feeding; and although great extra labor has been perform ed in sending to a distance for leaves, and they, too, of the common red mulberry, yet a considera ble quantity of eocoons, of large sine and appa rent good quality, have been produced. Wo have Obtained the following list of the amounts brought to the Magistrates in this place to he weighed, under the act of the last Legislator® i and we do not doubt, hut that from fifty to a hu 11 ' dred pounds might he added to the product, n ot yet brought in or made by those who will no* apply for the bounty.

Hy another season, a supply of morus multi caulis may be obtained, and the business will doubtless be then prosecuted with increased vigor. It may be proper to mention here, that many of the eggs produced this year have hatched out, and the experiment will be tested, whether two crops of good silk can be made the same season. Our country friends who lake any interest in the subject, and who have the common mulberry on their farms, can now have an opportunity, by ap plying to Mr. Hicks, of this place, of obtaining ‘ eggs or worms just hatched, on very favorable terms. We think they would do well to procure some and make a trial. The reader will sec, by referring to our ad vertising columns, that we propose to publish a cheap periodical devoted mainly to this subject. We believe that information is all that is needed to induce our people to engage in the business, and this information wc design to offer them.— The friemfc of the cause are respectfully invited to lend us tlilyr aid in procuring subscribers. Holding onV— The Charleston Mercury of Saturday says, there was not for the past week, a single bale *f Cotton sold in our market, ex cept 14 bales at pub lic auction. A«ow belonging to c<ol- Wolbert, of Philadel phia, of the “short horn DWham” breed, yielded last week 194 quarts, or nearly'ieven"garrijtin : dA milk pet day on the average. Another cow of the same stock also in possession of Col. W. is said to be rated at a higher value than any other in the country, he having lately refused #2500 for her. The Richmond Whig may well say—“beat • this who can,” when it states that “a strawberry ( was gathered from the garden of Mr. Jas. Wins ton, on Church Hill, measuring upwards of five inches in circumference. It was the Wilmot Su perb Strawberry, and said to be the largest ever raised in Virginia.” The New York papers state that the President' v has appointed John L. Stephens, Esq. the cele brated European traveller, to the diplomatic agency to Guatemala in place of Mr, Leggett, deceased. ' For the Chronicle Sentinel. I was induced on Wednesday last, to pay a visit to the Hampton Race Couise, to see the op eration of a machine invented by Mr. Gay, for reeling silk from the cocoons and twisting it for sewing, and warp and filling for all the varieties of manufactured goods, and was surprised and gratified to find so many persons, especially La dies present, in spite of the heat of the day.— The machinery seemed to give universal satis faction ; for my own part, I was much astonished at the rapidity and correctness of the work, hav ing always understood it to be a slow and diffi cult process, but found to my gratification that the manufacture of silk by Mr. Gay’s machine is much more simplc'than that of cotton, he having simplified the machinery so that it can all be op erated by children and females. Mr. Gay’s man ner of reeling on spools from the cocoon is a de cided improvement on the old principle of reeling in skeins, for by the Peidmontcse, and other reels, the silk was first on skeins which had to be transferred to spools before it could be manufac tured—whilst by Mr. Gay’s plan of reeling, the fibres being wound on the spool in one continu ed thread on an even surface, can be unwound as easily as a ball of yarn or spool of cotton, it also saves one complete settof machinery (which is expensive) for taking the silk from the skein to the spool, and of course a set of hands to op erate the machine. Mr. Gay has also an im provement in spinning, which consists in deliv ering the silk from the spool to the spindle for twisting, without the possibility of chaffing the thread or injuring the gluten, which has been the grand desideratum so long sought for. CIVIS. From the New Orleans Louisianian. J•'rom Mexico. A gentleman who left Mexico the 20th May, and Vera Cruz the Ist June, has informed us that Tampico was closely invested by Busta mente’s forces, who were in possession of the pass into the harbor, and nothing would go in or out without their consent. The city of Mexico was perfectly tranquil and the government was raising troops. A campaign against Texas was spoken of. But many per sons doubted if it would be undertaken. A French frigate and another vessel of the same nation were anchored at Sacrificios. A steamboat had departed for Havana a short time belbfc our informant left Vera Cruz. The first instalment of the sum stipulated by treaty has been paid by the Mexicans to the French.* ] , From the New Orleans hee of the tilth. \ Later from Mexico. Our Galveston papers of the 7th inst. contain news from Vera Cruz to the 3d, and from the ci ty of Mexico to the 28th ult.. received by the brig Empresario, which arrived at Galveston on the evening of the 6th instant. Co!, Bee left Vera Cruz for Havana on the I 29th ult. Padre Muldoon, who had accompa nied Col. Bee, was seized immediately upon lan ding and thrust into a dungeon. This act of atrocious violence was doubtless an ebullition of Mexican rage, because the Padre had been ap pointed Bishop of Texas, as a grateful testimo nial of his humane interposition in behalf of that republic during the hostilities with Mexico.— “Santa Anna, says the Galveston Gazette, is watched with too much jealousy to allow him to be of service to Texas, were he so disposed.” In Tampico the Federalists still resist the ef forts of the Centralists. It is thought the contest between the two parlies is by no means over. The government leasts arrogantly enough of the defeat of Mejia, and declares that it is only ne cessary to send 12 or 15,000 men to overrun Texas, in order to eradicate every vestige of in subordination. “The Federal prisoners taken under Mexia are many of them employed in working the streets of Vera Cruz, and are said to be treated with great cruelty. There is not, tt is stated, a single vessel of the Mexican navy left. The rumor of another invasion ofTcxas is not supported by any of the circumstances now exis ting in Mexico. The government paper states that the number of the. Federalists killed and wounded at the over throw of Mexia is 600. Gen.Lemus, with 1,700 Federalists is still in the vicinity of Monclova, and now seems to lie regarded by the government party, as their most formidable enemy. He is a brave and skillful officer, and very much esteemed by his party. The papers represent that the government is much straightened in its pecuniary resources by the. late difficulties, and it is proposed to dismiss all supernumary officers, curtail the pay of the balance, stop all pensions, increase the taxes, and raise forced loans. I nlcss these things be done, the government paper seems to say the Mexican nation cannot longer exist.” V*Bi Cruz, May 29th. The Vera Cruz Censor, of the 27th ult. con tains a paragraph stating that Colonel Bee, the Texian minister, was about to withdraw from that country in consequence of his not having been recognised by the Mexican government in his official capacity. According to the Censor, colonel Bee expresses his satisfaction at the cour tesy extended to him by general Guadeloupe Victoria, the commandant of Vera Cruz. The preceding intelligence is confirmed by a r from Col. Bee, dated Sacrifices 29th May, La Gloire, in which he says, “I leave fort Tie IlaVf?H£_|n the cteam frigate Phteton at 3 o’clock to-day. A letter from Matamorasof the 25th ult. says : “General Canalizo has left for Ft. Fernando, with 900 men, and with the intention, as is sup posed, of marching to Tampico, and effecting a junction with Bustamente. The newsofGcn’l Mejia’s death occasioned feasts and public rejoi cings in our city.”— N. O. Bee. from the New Orleans Louisanaian. From Tampico. Information has been received, in this city, by the schooner Creole, from Tampico, that Gener al Arista, at the head of 600 infanty (Central troops) arrived at the Bar of Tampico from Altc vmira on the night of the 27th ultimo, surprised and captured in a lew minutes the small party of Federalists who were stationed there to defend the place, without losing, or having even a sin gle man wounded, belonging to his party. The man-of-war schooner, formerly the old Independence of Texas, stationed at the Bar, was captured in fifteen minutes, the major part of her crew basely deserting the sides of the few resolute men on board—Jumped overboard, and made their escape, leaving her two principal offi cers, (one of whom, a Frenchman, who behaved nobly,) and seven men, all of whom were wound ed, to fall into the hands of the enemy. General Arista had despatched a brig to Vera Cruz, to obtain eight large pieces of ordonance and two bomb cannons, with which he intended to attack the city of Tampico, ami, according to his expressed determination, carry it without sacrificing a single man. Bustamente was at Altemira, and was daily expected at Tampico. Col. Dec. Notwithstanding Col. Bee was not allowed to proceed to the city of Mexico, he still thinks that a reconciliation between Texas and Mexico will be speedily effected. Col. Bee, was treated with distinguished courtesy by General Victoria, com mandant of Vera Cruz.— N. O Bee. Further from Texas. Our Galveston tiles mention the rumor of an engagement near Nashville, on the river Brazos, between captain Bird’s company of rangers, numbering about 30 men, and a body of Indians, some 200 strong. The latter were beaten off with a loss ofthirty-five killed. The whites lost 4 men including captain Bird and his son.— N. O. Bee. Extract from the Correspondence of the Nat. Intel New Vork, June 10. Our banks pull and haul, the one upon the other without concert of action, even in Wall street; and if disunion exists there, where the hanks are within a hundred yards of each other, what of dis cord there must be in the 26 States, where banks arc parted by hundreds of miles ! There continue to be disorder in the currency, spasmodic contrac tions, derangement of exchanges, trouble and un certainty as to the state of the money market. The city almuiids with unavailable Southwestern money. No one can calculate what it will cost him to collect what he sells far from home. All interests intensely feel the want of that for the currency, which is so essential to the Govern ment of the country —ahead; a power with the capacity of co-operating action—what George Washington and James Madison ujiproved as Presidents of these United Slates. John L. Stephens, Esq. the well-known travel ler in the East, our newspapers announce as ap pointed to fill the vacant mission to Guatemala. The Exploring Expedition. Our readers will peruse with interest the follow ing copy of a letter from Lieut. Charles Wilkes, commanding the Exploring Expedition to the South Seas, to the Secretary of the Navy, dated U. S. Ship Vixcexkes, Orange lliiiaoH, Terra L)i: Ft too, February 22, 1839. Stu: I have the honor to advise you of my arrival with the squadron at this harbor, all in good health, on the lUthinst.; this being the ren dezvous! designated previous to carrying into ef fect your orders relative to exploring south in the antarctic circle, and the employment of the scien tific corps in those regions, i Since my departure from Rio de Janeiro on the 6th of January, I have had no opportunity of com municating with you. Wc had a long, although pleasant passage, owing to light winds, to Rio Nigro, on the coast ot Patagonia, where your instruction* carried me. Other duties have prevented my completing my report of the observations there; it shall be for warded, however to you the earliest opportunity, and will, 1 hope, he satisfactory to you. We exjrcrienccd some detention at Rio Nigro, owing to the exposed situated of the open road stead, and regret to inform you that wc lost four anchors and cables, one by the Peacock, and three by the two tenders, all the vessels having been compelled to get under way and run off during a gale; the Peacock, Porpoise, and tenders, were compelled to slip their cables. On our return the next day the Porpoise re covered hers, hut the others could not be obtained, after a diligent search, owing to their buoys hav ing broken adrift; and, having completed all that your instructions required of me, I left Rio Nigro on the 2d of February for this anchorage. On my track here I passed through the «trait» of La Mairc, around and within four miles of Cape Horn, with the squadron in company. I found the relief here engaged in preparing for us, agreeably to my instructions to her commander. Wc have been also since our arrival constantly engaged in preparing the * cruise to the antarctic regions. Although lam fully aware that the attempt is hazardous, and may probably he unsuccessful, yet advantages may accrue from it to our future operations in any attempt wc may hereafter make, and I cannot fi»reg».like opportu nity which the season yet affords of making the trial. I take leave also to enclose herewith the instruc tions I have given for this cruise, which will give you full information in regard to our intended movements, I shall leave the Vincennes only in this harbor, safely moored, and proceed with the Porpoise and tender Sea Gulf, to endeavor to gain a further knowledge of the extent of Palmer’s land to the southward and eastward, as there may be less iee in that vicinity at this late season than at any other time, the new ioo not having yet formed, which I (runt will enable me to gain information for any future attempt. Previous to leaving Rio de Janeiro 1 was ap prehensive, as I informed you, that I should he very late in the season for this duty. I ahull en deavor to improve our limited time to the best ad vantage, as will appear in the copies of my in structions herewith transmitted. The Vincennes will await my return here as long as practicable, and, in the event of my deten tion by ice, she will proceed to Valparaiso, there to join the other vessels that may not be detained, wiulk instructions to Cupt. Hudson to carry out as far as possibl(7previoUs v l ',V-,?_ tl Jiltempt to aid me on the breaking up of the ice another season. The Peacock, Porpoise, and tenders,have been filled up with provisions from the Relief, and are well supplied with warm clothing, preserved meats, and antiscorbutics, for any emergency, to make us comfortable in case of detention, I take with me the pendulum and other instru ments, to employ my lime if we should be detained, which it will be my endeavor to avoid, for I am fully convinced of the delays and disadvantages auch a detention will cause to the more important duties anti operations of tils expedition; yet 1 trust, in the event of such an accident, our time P will not be misspent or lost. I have the honor to he sir, Most respectfully, CHARLES WILKES, Commanding Exp. Ex. Hon. Jamkh K, Paulbino, Secretary of live Navy, Washington. From the New Orleans Jlee. i The disposition of planters to raise their own breadstuff is a favorable indication for the south. Experience has shown that it is extremely hurt i ful for agriculture to he dependent on other states • for necessary plantation supplies, and should the I southern planters geucrutliy adopt the practice of i raising their own corn, nnd'as far as practicable, I their own meat, an immediate improvement in the condition of the country would lake place.— ' Uy devoting a portion of the soilito the produc tion of grains for humo consumption, there would l>e a necessary diminution in the quantity of staple produced, which would prevent the market from lieing glutted ; and the reduced de ’ mand for western produce would cause a redue i lion in the price of those commodities, the high prices of which arc now the principal source of 1 embarrassment to the planter. The crop of rot ton lessened by ibis means would sell for as much as a larger crop, with an over supplied market, and all that the planter would aava in producing corn, would be so much clear gain. , It has been said, with more truth than would , strike a supoificial observer, that a country that , buys all it uses and sells all it raises can never , grow rich. It argues certainly a great want of f foresight for a farmer to he dependent on others t for such necessaries as can be produced upon his \ plantation. The idea that a man’s wealth is in proportion to the quantity of produce sent to market is too prevalent fallacy. | n rural economy, wealth, may more justly be said to be, an independence r of external supply. That planter will attain ; wealth who has least to purchase in conducting . his affairs. There may be occasional seasons when the lands devoted to grains, were they cul f livated in staples would yickl more money than . ! the grain would cost, but such seasons arc cx . | reptions to the general rule. Look for instance, . ! at the cotton planters who have been in the habit . of growing their own corn, and raising their own i meat, very-tew of them have been overwhelmed t by the recent embarrassments, whilst many oth ers who shipped a proportionate amount of sta ■ pics to market, have been reduced to want. The immense yield of the cotton crops, would induce a belief that cotton growing countries aic • the richest on earth. Such however is not the i fact. The western farmers who send compara tively little to market, as a class, are richer than the. planters, for the reason that whatever they sell is a clear profit. ’1 he proceeds of a cotton plan | tation give a very inadequate notion of the profits 1 of a planter; for his supplies may coat him more than the return ofhis crop—and as these supplies are continually fluctuating in price, the planter , I has the risk ofhis ow n crop to encounter ami that i j also of the western producer. It would be absurd to say that the .Southern t-ir- I I mcr cannot raise corn for less money than it rsn , Is- bought in the west for, and boated to the South, | and waggoned to the plantation. Resides, the Western supplies are sometimes short, and the | grain frequently damaged before it reaches ils destination. These contingencies and expenses 1 I would tie avoided by growing grain on the plan ‘ ! tutions. Resides, when once the planter begins to grow his own supplies, it will he found that other expenses might be saved. It is a symptom of economy, which, when once it lakes a good hold on the Southern producer will have a wagiv 1 effect in recuperi'mj his resource* Consignees per South Carolina Kail Koad.
