Season Of ptenty.-It is expected that
1t the weather is ordinary favorable during
the succeeding summer that many articles
ofagricultural produce will be uncommon-
ly plentiful. In the first place, very many
young men, originally from the country.
who have been lately turned out of emnlov-
ment at the factories, will return to their
paternal dwellings, and become tiIers the
SOIL. Hence they will not only improve
their health, but cause the harvest to be
greater than usual, just in proportion to this
amount of additional labor. Hay, grain
and all the products, of the earth will be
proportionable increased, and bank paper
proportlonably diminished. In the second
place, thousands of young girls, who to the
great grief to their mothers, in many instan-
ces, formerly left their homes to labor in a
factory, being lately turned out of employ,
will now enjoy whole year of holidays at
home-asslsting in dlry affairs, making
butter and cheese, growing plump and
healthy, and becoming productive laborers
poth ior themselves and the community.
Many of them will get married to the young
men above spoken of, and they will con-
clude, after settling on snug little f,rm.
that the farmers life is, after all. the most |
independent and happiest that can be found.

Reason would seem TO indicate
that the foreign policy of Texas will
be dissimilar to that of the U. S. Tex
as is now, and, it is believed, will
continue to be, an almost purely a.
gricultural country. The agricultu-
raj interest will claim the almost ex-
elusive attention of the Government
Possibly, from the circumstance of
her climate and soil being so we'll a.
dapted to the growth of hemp, and
the great demand for rope and bag
glng IN cotton growing country, the
manufactures .of those solitary arti-
cles may be encouraged at an early
period, butwith thes single exceptions
it is not apprehended that the capitol
and labor of the country can be so
probably employed in any other
species of industry as in the planting
interest. On the other hand, the in
terest OF the U. S. are numerous and
greatly diversified; and tits presum-
ed that it was found necessary to es-
tablish such foreign policy as would
best reconcile them and rebound to
the advantage ofeach.
With the most rigid adhearence to
whatever is Just and right, the Gov.
eminent of Texas will naturally per-
sue such a course of policy, foreign
and domestic, as will best conduce
to the increase other wealth and DO
pulation, and thereby her national
power and consideration. In its in
tercourse abroad, it will endeavor to
lind those markets where her agricul-
tural products, cotton, sugar, rice. to-
bacco, &c, will obtain the highest
prices, and where such articles as
may be needed for her home con-
sumption may be procured at the
lowest rates. If these advantages
are presented in commercial inter-
course with the U. s., the undersign-
ed need not say that the warm pre-
objection of theGovernment and peo-
