good. We say fundamental aoras, pc
cause we regard those works which tend c
deyeIope the agricultural and mechanical
resources Of a people, as The basis oil oil
others.
Now why ID this1--why do public men IN
Louisiana treat so lightly what public men
in. Massachusetts, New.York, Virginia, y
Carolina, Kentucky and Ohio, regard ~
matter Of pre-eninent Importance wv
should be happy to discover a more am'a.
bic reason than that which presents liseIl
to our Giind but the Argument falls co.
gently upon our convictions, ard out II
must Il IL that public men.in this STATE,
1.-THE major part Of them, at least are pub
lie oficc-seekers, and no more. Ihcy
have never been distinguished and marked
as public benelactors, and hence called out
by the people to receive honors and re-
wards--the tribute Of nations to their Ia
v%orites. No their first appearance on the
public r~ostrtlin was to solicit that which
they Lad never e~arned--thair first APP
pcarance as public men, was as pubic
mendicants, begging honors "a croWas to
their egotism and pride, not dcr4aaa'ag
the rightful reward Of their merIforio'is
deeds. This is why our public men IN
Louisiana are generally Of " no account, 2
except on the day OF election, or at sonic
political cabal. They arc not men CHOSEN
by the people, but men who have IMPOSED
THEMSELVES upoN the people. This is a
plain fact, and the people need i:ot open
both eyes to perceive it.
A new race Of men must and will soon
spring up. We cannot long remain as we
are; it cunnot be- long ere We shall have
among us public men o. tho peoples choice,
men wlln distinguished themselves by serv-
ing their State in private before they were
called 70 serve il h public.
The present year, We at%pfehend, will
afford a very forcible illustration Of the
want Of those arrangements and establish.

been so warmly advocated by a few indi-
vidnals during the past summer. In every

than last--whilc the prospect sat the
anne time, that they will not be able to
ind for their cotton a better, if so good u
as they found last year.
We cannot now carry farther these de-
ultory considerations which, founded Upon
uthentic data, impress us more strongly
han ever with the necessity of urging
pom our planters and fellow citizens gene
plly, the vast Importance of making am
lie preparations for the agricultural expo

alton Of an efficient permanent agricul-
iral and mechanical association in the
tate.

A few English journals continue to dis.

Prices had declined ll4I.
The distress in the manufacturing dis.
