Mr. EDITOR: At all times there are sub jects that, to greater or less degree, inter est agricultural and laboring classes of the community and through them, all other classes oI society. Politics, contests for power, and place, and all other objects of lsadib!s ambition may, for a lime, absorb the public attention, bu, these are ephemeral. they pass oir with lhe temporary excitement of the day; but we find that occasionally other subjects of much more vital csiaFac- ter occur, upon which depend, mol the eleva- tion of one man, or the depression of others, bu. whole nations are deeply, viIally inter esled. Witness the blight or rot of the po- taioe all over Europe, by which millions of human beings are suffering for the means of subsissence--or nearer home we find that the

These are dispensa- lions of Providence that human wisdom and foresigh; sanno; control; but without pre- sumption, we may review the past, and spec ulate on the future. It IS proposed to refer 10 some of the prominent features in the his
 tory of the culture of Cotton in the United States, and to speculate on what may be ex- pecled in time to come, in relation 10 thls important article of human comfort.
 The Cotton business within the last hall century has grown up from an inappreciable item, 10 be the ruling and all absorbing ar,i- cle ia the commerce of the world, that ap- pears to effect the value of all other produc- .ions, either of art or industry. For the care fal observer of the markets, cannot but have observed that, as the price of cotton rises or falls, all other commodities ioliow in its wake. The importance of this article in the commeice of the world as the present day, may be arPret iaied from the iael, that il en-
