COTTON--THE REGULARITY OF
THE PLANT

Mr.. II. M. Breckenridge has published
sketch Of the cotton crop of the United
States, describing the peculiarly of the
plant and the regions of the country in
which ine several varieties are produced.
lie says:
"The upland cotton region in the Uni
ted States may be said to lie between the
30 deg. and 35 deg of North latitude,
extending in length, from east to west,
from southern Virginia TO the Rio Grandc.
Its first and most striking char, ;oristic
within these bounds is, that it is an unu-
sUal growth, and bears an annual crop,
like the wheat or corn There is the req
ular season Of growth, flower, fruit, Gf I
may use this expression and decay. 1t
is supplied with regular rains, and its
growth in due time, is arrested by frost.
The sap of the plant, instead of being
employed in the formation of leaf and
woody fibre, is expended in the produc
ton of its pode and seeds. Instead of
aspiring to the character of tree, the
whole cotton field presents most uniform
appearance, the plant seldom exceeding
six feet in height, with numerous lateral
branches. The crop is also uniform in
appearance and staple, and is nearly all
ready to be gathered about the same pe-
Rod. II is, besides, beautiful plant
the cotton field in blossom is highly orna-
mental, and the snow-whtc appearance,

WILD CAT, THE SEMINOLE CHIEF.

We learn from gentleman who has
been among the Seminoles for several
weeks, that Wild Cat, and a few follow
crs, have left the Seminole county, and
are now it is supposed, between the Bra
zos and Colorado rivers, on ti.eir way TO
the Mexican territory. Previous to his
leaving, he held talks with several of the
Indian tribes, and had produced some cx-
element among them by his tales. He
told them that the United States intended
TO remove all the Indians, in three years,
to country where there was but little
wood and very great scarcity of water;
that it would be measured to them, the
chiefs getting about quart day, and
the others in smaller quantities in pro-
portion to the rank and station of the in
dividual-women and children only a
pint, The chiefs of the several tribes
knew this, but were afraid to say thing
aboutit, and his unpopularity among his
own people and the Greeks arose from
the fact that the chiefs bated him because
they knew that he intended to tell the
people. He, however, did not intend to
live upon the land the United States had
appropriated for the Indians, but was
going to obtain from the Mexicans, for
himself and followers, district of country
which he described in the most glowing
and favorable terms. All those who
would remove with him should have the
privilege of living there, but if the re-
NAMED behind, they should never be
permitted to come into the country, but
might die upon the land to which the
United States intended removing all the
Indians. He is to return in the spring,
and bring with him large paper from
the Mexican government, granting him
the country for himselfand all those who
might remove with him. 1t appears
from statements made by the Indians
themselves, that he has succeeded in i'm
posing On many of the Indians the truth
of his statements, and that a large num-
bcr of them intend removing with him in
the spring. Wild Cat, having lost his
popularity among the Seminoles and
Creeks, appear determined to make an
effort to remove to distant country, and
entice away as many Indians as possible,
and settle down wher he will not have to
contend with rival chiefs. He is a cum
ming, ambitious man, and is not willing to
be less than the head Of the tribe.

when the bolis are opened. is. il possible,
still more So"
The medium size of the plant makes it
Yield more abundantly, for the strength is
not exhausted in the wood, while tie uni
forrnity Of the staple makes it admirably
calculated for all fine manufactures. Mr.
B. says:
40 show how much the fruit is infu-
cnced by climates and locality, NAV cite
the we'll known fact, that the upland cot
ton seed when carried TO the sea-cost, and
to the south of latitude 20 deg. changes
in two years time to the black seed, and
long staple; and so rice rersa."
South Of latitude 80 deg. there is a
constant effort Of nature TO make wood at
the expense Of fruit, and the plants be-
come perennial, sometimes tree its staple
decreasing 50 as to be fitted for only the
more delicate textures.
"For this reason, the American Upland
cotton need fear no rival, within the top
les, either in the West Indies, the Braziles
or India. Iii true that Egypt lies north
Of 80 deg, but that part Of Africa being
on the western SIDE o, that hemisphere,
the climate corresponds with 20 deg. on
the eastern side. 1t seems now 10 be ad
mittcd, that from the popularity of eli
mate and position, there is no country on
tho globe that can rival, or supcrse6e,
the United States in this valuable pro-
duct on, unless it be the British posses
sions in Australia, and the distance is too
great, il the same article could be pro-
duced, to transport it to the European
market in preference to other articles pro-
duccd in those countries. 1t seems to be
the peculiar gift Of Providence to this
favored land"
AT one time it was thought, there vas
danger Of over production; there is how
ever, more danger in deficiency of sup.
ply Mr.. b. continues:
Gas to the increase Of production, il
cannot be as rapid as hcrctofnre; the easi
ly cultivated uplands of the cottoI
States having been pretty generally oc
cupicd, and large portion of them won
out But there are still large bodies 0
low land west of the Mississippi, Red Riv
or, DC, capable Of being brought int
cultivation. Cotton, at twelve cents, is
better crop, than sugar at six, and conse
qucntly, the rise in price will tend t.
check the establishment Of sugar planta
tions. Nothing can surpass the comfort
and advantages of q well regulated cottol
plantation in Gcotgia, alabama, and Mis-
sissippi. The labor is light, healthy, ant
does not occupy the time SO entirely as t.
prevent the planter from raising an abun
dance of provisions for the sustenancc o
his people, and even for providing then
clothing. The planter mostly lives in th
midst Of his people, and sees to all tbci
wants; and, whatever may be said o
thought by those who are not PERSONAL.
acquainted with their situation. they ar
a happy and contentcd race, with strong
mutual attachment between them and TIL
masters family"
