visited Mr.. w. b. Farmers plantation
a short time since on purpose TO see his
cotton. am. convinced that it is the hea-
West boiled cotton / eyer saw, either in
Mississippi or Louisiana; and il shed less
than the strongest lands in Carroll county
the most of his land being high and con-
siderably worn. It also has the appear
ance of commencing to boil sooner than
the common cotton, there being bolls on
all or nearly all of the first limbs that
come out. The cotton is known in this
section as the Sugar-Ioaf Cotton, and the
leaf is small, which from the shape oil the
stalk does not expose the negroes to the
dews in first picking as the common cot
ton. The staple is good, and believe
better than the common Mexican cotton.

ton with the President relative to the Ore
gon negotiation, denies the substance of this
conversation as given by various letter VIII
tiers to the New York papers as follows:
We have no doubt that these are all visions
of the Imagination. No ultimatum has been
sent-no offer has been made-none will
probably be made, because we humbly con
ceive it becomes the duty Of the British
government to offer one in turn. The thea
tire Of any negotiation has not been shifted
to London. And yet the President has not
abated in the slightest degree the desire
which has been twice expressed by his Sc
cretary of State, to adjust the whole question
in harmonious and peaceable manner.

.HrithmeticdE Scale.

1t is unnecessary to pursue this branch
of the subject any farther. The matter
speaks for itself; since it is selI-evldeni
that the calculation of the committee, which
assigns to the whole State for the year l94C
population of less than 100000, and vel
gives to Baltimore alone in the same year
population of more chan 4S,000,00O, must
rest upon some principle grossly erroneous
But as this article has already grown to a
sufficient length, will defer the sequel to
a second No, in which will show that
neither the arithmetcal, nor the geometrical
law of progression, taken on the scale and
IN the manner IN acEich the committee hare
empzoyedthem, will give any thing like &C
curate psulls for the progressive population
of an, community, small or large. The
presdt No. will conclude by repeating,
wb4 the next No. will more clearly prove,
TIT my remarks originate from no hostility
1.-THE slave-holding interest, from no wish
90 thwart their measures projected in refe-
renee to the free negroes of this State
measures which | do not yet fully under
stand, and certainly from no ill-will to the
authors of the Report, with whom | agree
politically, and for whom I can possibly
entertain no sentiment but respect.

We lay before our readers today the re-
port submitted to the House o Delegates
by THOMAS F. BOWIE, from tn. committee
of 81 appointed by the House to inquire
into the expediency of calling Conven-
ton to remodel the Constitution. We pub
lished some weeks since three different re-
ports emapating from this committee, and
as Mr.. R.'s is the only other one submitted
upon this subject, we are inclined to think
our readers will be pleased to see it; and,
too, aside from this, we view the plan laid
down in this report for calling together a
Convention-should one be deemed neces-
sary-as purely in accordance with our re-
publican institutions, anC which we think
needs but to be looked into to impress a
like conviction on every unbiased mind. If
we are to have Reform let it be such as will
work beneGcially throughout the confines
of our. State, and let political, sectional, and
local causes be thrown out Of view entirely

While we were sitting reading few eve
nings since in our sanctum, we gradully
fell into sweet sleep; and as our book
was one calculated to stretch the magma
ton, by some strange fatality our fancy
ranged far and wide in the elysium of dream
land. We are somewhat believer in dreams,
but not supersttiously so. We dreamed
asking ourself in our dream were we dream
ing, thinking it too siluery sweet to prove
substantial the March term of our
Court was upon US, and that we were ha-
rassed with our friends calling upon US to
pay their accounts and be entered as sub
scribers to our paper. To be sure we were
wishing but short time before we fell to
dreaming, that our friends would remember
us, and how pleasant it was that our wishes
had been realized. But, alas! when we
were in the height of our pleasant dream
when we thought we could now defy any
one to present us with demand which we
could not on the instant ease, We were sud-
tRn1y aroused by the Qscordant tones of
our Devil, asking us, in piteous manner,
for small amount Of money. We gradu-
ally awoke, and still possessing the idea we
had large amount Of money in our pos
session, commenced rummaging in our peck
cts for the small demand. We hunted up
one pocket and down another, but, oh horror!
the twenty-five cent? could nowhere be
found, and, as a dernier resort, we had to
send him away to one of our merchants
with request to give him what he needed at
our responsibility. Come, friends, we should
be glad were this dream-the sizuery part
of ito prove something like reality, for
the truth is we are greatly in want of funds
The doctrine of you pay US, we'll pay them
and they'll pay you, we hold to be sound
and true, and think you will find it SOL
you will but agree with us.
