her dependencies, and that the balance of

TRADE WITH CHINA-

A writer in the Hartford Comm Journal, in
speaking of the Chinese mark ct and our trade with
that Empire, estimates that ONE HALF the amount
of the present Cotton crop Of the Union will soon
be required to supply the Chinese market. The
population OF the Empire is estimated at $50, 000-
600, the greater portion Of whom are clad in cotton
fabrics. In computing the probable extent of the
demand for cotton among the Chinese, he. TAX es
the estimate that on American will consume fire
times the amount of cotton goods that Chinese
will, and that 2O,000, 900, Americans will annually
consume 100000, bales If this estimate be cor
rect, (and it seems very moderate one.) the a
mount of the raw material required for the Chi
nese market, will be at least 100000 bales! 1t is
we'll known that American manufactures are pre-
ferred in China. to those of any other nation. and
if this trade can be engrossed by our countrymer
the Imagination scalce conceive the grand re-
suit. More than the cotton crop will be required
| for our own manufactures, and great Domestic
market for the material will be bull. up, ex
ceeding that of England:-We firmly believe tina
the day is not far distant when these great result
will be attained-PorE Gibson Herald.

FOR THE YAZoo CITY WIG.

Honor to Him who noble was and great,
Ere years had raised Him up to mans estate;
Nurtured in poverty, yet rich in mind,
Replning never at his lot unkind.
Yearmng for Glory 10 the Man we find.
Calm and determined in his country's cause;
Leading the band designed to make her laws,
And fearing nought, to duty ever nerved,
Yielding TO none when Freedom could be
screwed. ION.

Mr. Caleb Rice in her 9Th year. For about 80 years
she had been member or the Cong. church in l.
and sustained character worthy Of her profes.
sion. But the why's of rrordcnce in regard TO her
end seem dark aud mysterious. For about months
previous TO what took place by which her earthly
istence terminated, she had been OF health,
and ncning TO despondeRcy. About 3 weeks before
her death, being left alone the Sabbath while her
husband at meeting, she went out into the door
yard, and there, by accident, fell and broke her hip.
After awhile she succeeded in getting Into the house,
and, rs she afterwards said, in rejecting upon her
happy condition. aud the trouble she should be to her
friends was led make the attempt to take her
life by cutting her throat. But her son. who lives
near, providentiuily, came in, and medical aid
being shortly procured, she saved, probably,
from immediate death. AS it is known by many Of
her friends that she partially deranged some 10
years ago in consequences Of ill health, aud her ner
system being somewhat inquired, is natural
for them to infer that she perfectly when
she committed the shocking deed. She expressed
deep sorrow in view ofwhat she had been left to do
appeared to endure her sulerings, tho severe, with
true christian resignation, and died with comfortable
assurance of happy Immortality. Com.
