CULTIVATION OF COTTON IN INDIA cor
respondent of the Alabama Journal thus ex-
presses his conviction of the complete sue
cess of the experiment of planting cotton in
the East Indies.-U. States.
Intelligent gentlemen of England, who
have every facility for forming correct OPT
Mon, estimate the crop in India of 184l, at
SOC, 900 bales, which is more than the entire
crop of the United States in 1927, and more
than our total exports in any year prior to
1832-shoWing an increase more rapid than
at any time in the United States since its
introduction into the country. These facts
ought to convince our planters that, within
five years, they must prepare to grow cotton
! at four to six cents pound, or turn their at
tention to something else. Should any one
doubt the ability of India to increase her pro-
duction in a ratio proportioned to the one
above noticed, until it reaches point sufi-
cient not only to supply the entire wants of
Great Britain, but of the whole world, let
him examine the subject fully and impartial
! " for himself. With double the extent of
territory adapted to cotton, soil OF the rich
est character, a population of 10000, 900 OF
British subjects, the laboring portion OF which
| receive but 4 to cents a day, If a tresher
impulse is given, it is hardly possible to form
an estimate of the extent to which the Gull
ture of cotton may be carried, within the
next ten years, in British India. The mo-
ment England can obtain her supplies from
her own dominions, that moment she will
place duty on our cotton. On this question
a party both numerous and powerful, under
the influence of a morbid, fanatical Phllan'
thrOPy, will urge her forward, event at great
sacrifices, if necessary, with the hope OF des-
troying the peculiar institutions Of our South
ern States, by rendering the products OF slave
labor as near valueless as possible. Is 1t moi
time thens for our planters to take warning
and prepare themselves for the worst! The
market at home, they may rely upon IT., IN
ten years will be the only market OF value
to them. Let them plant but half their usua
quantity of cotton, and apply the other hal
Of their force to the production of something
else. BY so doing, they will get quite az
much money for what they do make, and
lsavein addition the proceeds Of the other half
