very different. II Is admitted that no other coun.
try can produce il df the best quality, and expe.
rience has abundantly proved, that neither cotton
nor sugar, 1--WE may add tobacco and Coffee can
be probably raised on large scale without slave
labor. The cotton crop must, therefore, keep
pace with our slave population, which already
raises all 1t can pick and we accordingly find that
the average rate Of increase of both is just the
same, little over per cent year. II is, there
fore, impossible to increase the supply by new
influx of producers, as in common cases, and as
the demand Embarrassing about Is per cent. year,
the price must continue RISE until its very rise
checks the consumption. These facts promise an
almost unbounded prosperity to the cotton planter
which will extend TO all their fellow-citizens in the
same happy confederacy. A vast Southern mar
ket will be opened for grain, sugar. tobacco, pro-
visions, manufacturers, and produce Of every de-
scription. When this demand is added TO the ex-
isting wants OF other countries, the profits of the
Virginia and Maryland planter will equal those of
their more Southern brethren, and the sayehold-
ing States, freed from heavy burthen Of taxation,
and relieved from the unnatural diversion of their
trade, would be the garden spot Of the world.
The exports Of cotton TO the free States and other
countries, cannot be less, in few years, than lao
millions Of dollars in value; 1--WE venture to predict
that, in the present state of things, the ex-
ports of cotton TO foreign countries will reach 80
millions this year, besides SOC, 900 bales, worth

w-Q Quietly, and without pomp or ceremony
the remains of the late President were conveyed
away for interment on Friday morning last by
his relatives. Cut off by the mysterious ordina-
ton of Providence so unexpectedly, few who
greeted his arrival here could have dreamed that
he was so soon, and thus, to depart forever.
The estimate placed upon his brief admins
tration hereafter, will vary with the prejudices
the passions, and the judgments Of those who
view it from different stand points-but his fame

~ 1t is stated that WASHINGTON Hunt has
disavowed his nomination on the Anti-rent
ticket. This is a sign of grace. He contents
himself, for the present, with the nomination of
those who rob on larger scale the land of their
Southern brethren
Perhaps, however, the formation of the ninth
party-the balanee-ofpower-conserv party
has alarmed him. This party won't submit
to be robbed at home, and for the sake of South
ern trade won't advocate the robbng at one
time, of more than ten degrees of latitude on
both sides of the Rio Graude and ON the Pa
