Nv nj The success Of such an undertaking.. These nam.
Lsrs. were extensively published, but more rs sPcci-
mems OF ingenious theory and bold speculation, than
any thing else. ~ length the Boston Post took the
same view Of the subject, and published a series OF most
able articles. Evidence has SAGE rapidly accumulated.
Many ofthe Mississippi pianters nave returned IN disgust
convinced or,he imprac,icnbihiy ofthe undertaking. The
testimony of the Mcssrs. Mccullough, published some
time SINCE By Us, is conclusive But The wing press gen
orally sui! harps upon the danger of British compr,i,ion.
The Boston Atlas, 4 leading organ OF the Clay and Tariff
interest, is thus perpetually striking al the cotton
planters of the South. We commend TO our readers
the following article from the Post:
"East Ladia C~otoa-Henry Lee, Esq has now in
press a series Of letters addressed 10 the cotton manu-
fac:urers Of Massachusetts,, the twenty fourth OF which
,s published in Hunt $ Magazine Ter the present month.

prices OF the cotton Of this country
.Bv expressing such an opinion us this. Mr.. Lee rms
the hazard Of receiving from The profound, far.seeing
writer who uses the columns Of tie Boston Atlas, a
de!ugs Of eplihe!s, such 81 those are apt to indulge in
who find themselves on the weak side Of an argument.
Nr Lee, we perceive, does not take into account, one
view of tiis question which the political Tariff men Of
the patriotic Atlas take, viz: the consequences that viii
ansGe when Great Britain puts on a prohibltorY duty
On American cotton We presume Mr. Lee thinks tina;
