OF THE
COTTON PLANT.
A Southern journal, published weekly, to ad-
vocate direct trade manufactures, agriculture and
the development Of Southern resources by G.. G.
BAYLOR, Washington, d. c.
The importance of such journal as the above
needs no exposition. The material and substan-
tia interests Of the South have been too long ne
elected. The "CorroN PLANT" is established to
promote these interests, keeping entirely aloof
from party or party politics complete foreign
and domestic correspondence has been arranged.
The best talent of the country will contribute to
our columns, which will present medium of
general communication, correspondence, and in
formation for the friends of the measures we ad-
vocate. The proper steps have been taken in
Europe and America to lay the foundation of u
direct foreign trade at the South and to introduce
our coarse manufactures into the continental Eu-
ropean market. One object Of the "CoTroN
PLANT" will be, as the organ OF direct trade to
stimulate the South to carry out this impoi tant
measure.
We call upon the Southern merchants generally
to send US their business cards, that we may lay
them before the country, to enable the friends of
Southern commerce, manufactures, &C., to dis
eliminate properly in their desire to promote South
ern enterprise
The importance Of Washington city, point
of location for such journal, especially in regard
our foreign relations, is apparent. The opportu-
nifty of seeing here, also, members of Congress
from every district of the country, present
means general cooperation not to be found else
where.
To the cotton, sugar, rice, and tobacco planters,
we look confidently for support; and to the friends
of ''direct trade" throughout the South we say,
s'show your faith by your works"
The regular issue of the "CorToN PLANT" will
commence in June next. Advertisements are
particularly requested to be forwarded early.
Business letters addressed to c. G. Baylor, Wash
ington city, d. c.
Correspondence from all interested in the cause
we advocate solicited particularly to the crop
as we wish to give correct information on the sui
ject which is of SO much Importance to the plan
ter, and in representing which he has been so often
injured.
Postmasters are requested to act agents for
us and to all who approve our cause we look
for good feeling, kindness, and support.
Terms Two dollars year, in advance.
