In urging the South CaroIinans 10 d.
vert portion Of their industry from the
cultivation to the manufacture Of cotton, n
correspondent Of the Charleston Courier
has the following somewhat startling para
graph:
"Sinco tho discovery that cotton would
mature in Sonth Carolina, she has reaped
a golden harvest; but il is feared that it
has proved curse rather than a blessing,
and we believe that she would, at this day,
be in a far better condition, had the dis.
covery never been made. Cotton has
been to South Carolina what the mines Of
Mexico were 10 Spain. II has produced
us such an abundant supply Of all the
Injuries and elegances Of life, with go lit
tie exerlion on our part, that we have be-
come enervaied and untitled for other and
more laborious pursuits, and unprepared
to meet the state of things, which, sooner
or later, must come about Is il out of
place here to predict that the day il not
far distant, yea, il is close at hand, when
VIC shall end that we can no longer lire
by that which has heretofore yielded US
not only bounilul and sumpuous living
at home, but has furnished the means for
carrying thousands and tens Ct lhoufands
Of our citizens obroad to squander their
gold in other countries-lhat We hayo
wasted Inc fruits Of a.rieh, virgin soil, in

praclicod sufficient industry and economy
to accumulate capital, have left, or are
leaving Us, to populate other Slalesl'

The next intelligence from Mexico may give in
iormaton OF another revolution in that disordered
country. There are several generals at the head Of
uoops all Of whom are ambitious, and no farther
ane.sd towards the government than their own sew
eIn views and interests may prompt. Bustamente,
recently named as commander-in-chief of the army
against Texas, was, not long since, an exile as
oana Ana is now. His reconciliation with the
government shows the necessity to which its weak
ness has brought it, rather than any confidence on
.he part Of the government in his fidelity. The ac-

large detachment OF the army. He has long been

Toned to make revolutions that the thing has grown
into habit with him. II is now said that he is
openly disaffeced towards the existing government.
and that several bodies of troops disposed to pro-
nounee him President have joined his command
In conncxion with these elements Of disorder. the
friends Of Santa Ana are probably at work under
the personal direction Of Alnon,e Weak and dis
racted, prey to intrigue and violence, without re-
sources, without energy, the Mexican republic ex-
hlbits melancholy spectacle. The doctrine of the
"spois" has been there carried out to its full re
suits, and we behold them strikinely illustrated
The possession Of Office is but license 10 plumber
Adventures all, there are no bounds to the fierce
cupidty with which the contendng aspirants strive
after the official places which furnish facilities to de-
spoil the country. The unhappy commonwealth
lies like huge carcass around which the vulturcs
are gathered, while the voracous birds Of prey fgh
among themselves, each eager TO be first gorged
Such is the natural consummation Of that fatal prin
elple which, sitting all patriotism, converts the Off

nese into maturity, with all its accompaniment o

GREAT RAILRoAps.-The cities of New York and
Boston have each great railroad project in hand,
both Of which have the same object in view--the at
traction Of the great lake-trade Of the West. 1t
would seem, from the annexed paragraphs, that
both projects will be speedily undertaken, and pros
ecuted vigorously to completion.-Bah .ameriean.
From the New York Tribune.
The subscriptions to the Erie road reach now two
millions of dollars and, with the feeling existing
in relation TO the paramount importance Of this
road, there can be doubt that the remaining mil
lion will I've speedily taken. The directors are de-
voting their whole time to the work Of obtaining
subscription and meet with such liberal response
from those whom they approach, that they anticipate
no difficulty in filling up the wanted amount.
Respecting the Boston scheme, we have the fol-
lowing information:
We are informed that several large sums have
been subscribed TO the stock of the Ogdensburg and
Champlain railroad during the last week at Boston.
The original subscription Of 1000 Of the Hon,
Abbott Lawrence has been increased by the firm of
A. &. A. Lawrence to $4,000. The 81, 500 000
guaranteed by the Bostonians with the $500 900, the
principal part Of which has already been subscribed
in the counties of ST. Lawrence, Franklin, and Clin-
ton, making q, 100000, the estimated cost Of con-
struc,ion and putting the road in operation, will be-
yond all reasonable doubt, be subscribed in the
course of few weeks.

The NORFOLK MuRDER.--We noticed the muir.
Der Of Major Smith, Of SOMEHOW, Nansemond
county, Virginia; but we have not, in reading the
details, met with q case Of assassination so cool
and deliberate wanton as this one; and as the
murderer is at large, every one should be on the
alert to detect and secure him. Itseems that Major
Smith had given offence to Hunter Hill, the muir
derer by refusing to appoint him captain Of a
patrol guard. Hill approached him, and, without
iman'festing anything like displeasure, requested
him to take short walk with him, when he imme-
daely arose, and both Of them left the hotel toge-
her. In short time after, Smith was seen alone,
about 60 feet from the hotel, and rising from the
ground; but, as soon he had risen, he fell again.

morning at O'Clock, when he expired.
