TO THE VOTERS OF THE SEVENTH CON-
GRESSIONAL DISTRICT OF MARYLAND.

My object in addressing you is to announce my in
tention Of declining to be candidate for reelection
Having been honored by your confidence four terms
IN the House of Representatives Of the United States,
cannot permit the political relations which have
long existed between to be severed without tender
ing my sincere acknowledge for the kindness you
have repeatedly bestowed, and the indulgence have
always received at your hands.
Tony political friends owe much, which can only
be repaid by deep of gratitude, which shall
ever entertain
That my political course should have been approx
ed and the sentiments have expressed should have
met your appreciation, is ample reward for any
sacrifices may have made or difficulties encountered.
Byyour efforts, in common with those Of the Wings
generally great revolution has been effected, a
commenced, which bids fair for the future honor
and prosperity Of the country.
Believing that the present condition of affairs is
such to require that Congress should be convened
before the usual period Of its meeting have deemed
it proper thus early to advise you of my intention SO
that opportunity may be afforded of selecting
successor.
In taking leave OF you as Representative, should
do injustice to my feelings to omit the
preston of my sincere thanks for the very many evil
dences Of kind personal regard have received from
my political opponents generally

requires II In the other; and there Is exactly the
same and equal reason for one, as for the other,
IL would indeed be great compliment for a
President TO take 10 himself, that his appoint
ment by the people is all that was required, and
that he is under no obligations to those who have
elected him 10 his place Of power.
To assume, therefore, that General Harrison
has conceived the idea Of amalgamatng all par
ties into one, by attempting TO satisfy his poilu
cal opponents any farther than just and patriot
&c administration will do it, is 10 ascrbe TO hm
such want Of political sagacity as he has never
yet betrayed The highest aim, goo ana
wise man, which he can have as President, and
which we are most gratifed to observe announc-
ed IN his Inaugural, is to abate and molfy poll
ticai asperlty, by holding the balance OF justice
/ equal In his hand towards all parties, without
forgetting TO whom he is indebted for that high
and responsible prerogatve. This he is emf
nenlly calculated to do, and we doubt not will.
IN happy degree, accomplish But we do not
think he will ever dream of doing il by such in
justice, as to bestow his patronage on those who
have either been active in, or strengthened, a
conspiracy TO overthrow the institutions Of the
country, to the neglect of those who have toiled
and fought for their preservation.
We say, therefore, TO all applicants for Office,
wait with patience till appointments can be
made with that consideration which the rule
adopted by General Harrison requires 1t can
not be done in day, nor in week, nor in a
month; nor can changes be universal by this
rule. Nothing would grieve US more than to see
a clean sweep by prescription, or spoils sys-

Although, therefore, the Jackson-van Buren,
dynasty stands acquitted Of direct invasion Of
popular and State rights, according 10 General
tlarrison's view Of our history, yet we observe
that the machinery Of our government has bsfn
altered, and an actual consolidation effected be-
tween the power thai wields the sword and thai,
which holds the purse. II required but one
more step TO establish an absolute monarchy on
the territories OF this republic. We trust the
nation viii tread back as soon as possible ON
constitutional ground. and disjon the purse and
the sword so eiiectually that no effort TO unite
them again will ever avail, no, forgetting forever
to silence the voice Of the Executive in affairs
of legislation.

Not in form, but in faith and fac: The form
OF union remains TO be dissolved by acts 81

pledge Of the present Chief Magistrate. ut
was certainly great error,n says he, "in the
trainers of the Constitution. not TO have made
the officer at the head Of the Treasury Depart
ment entirely independent Of the Executive
He should at least have been removable only
upon the demand Of the popular branch Of the
Legislature have determined never 10 re-
move Secretary of the Treasury, without com
munlcatlng all the circumstances attending such
removal TO both Houses of Congress-
Trusting in the faith Of this pledge, we may
assume, that during General Hauison's admi-
nistraton, the Treasury is in fact independent
ofthe Executive, for all practical purposes; and
long before the expiration Of that period, nay,
during the first session Of the 9th Congress, We
hope to see the entire charge and sole control
Of the Treasury resumed by that body, &c
which it constitutonally belongs, never to be
usurped again by another branch Of the Govern
ment, and never to be resigned by this.

THE COTTON INTEREST.

The subjoined advertisement, which we find
IN London magazine confirms the rumors for
sometime prevalent in this country, relative 10
the formation Of large British Company 10
promote the cultivation Of Cotton in the East
Indies.
While on this subject il may no, be uninte-
resting to furnish some estimates Of the relative
proportions of Cotton grown at this time in diff
ferent parts of the world. We derive the esti-
mates from an able article in the Merchants, Ma
gazine Tor March, and they are TO be considered
as very general in their character They show.
nevertheless, that the Cotton interest is one OF
the greatest magnitude throughout the globe.
The entire growth of Cotton in the world is
computed at one thousand million Of pounds
vi this amount IL IS estimated, that five hundred
and fifty million pounds are produced in the
United States; thirty millions in Brazil eight
millions in the Vest Indies twenty~seyen mill
lions in Egypt; thirtysix millions in the west Of
Africa one hundred and ninety millions in the
west OF Asia; thirty-five millions in Mexico and
South America, exclusive Of Brazil; and four
teen millions elsewhere AT ten cents per pound
this crop would be worth one hundred millions
of dollars.
