OF THE

OF THE
COTTON PLANT.
A Southern journal, published eekly, to ad-
vocate direct trade, manufactures, agriculture, and
the development of Southern resources by G.. G
BAY LOR, Washington, d. c..
The importance of such journal as the above
needs no exposition. The material and substan-
tial interests Of the South Lave been too long me-
elected. The "CorroN PLANT is established to
promote these interests, keeping entirely aIoof
from party or party politics. A 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 adj
vocate. The proper steps have been taken in
Europe and America to lay the foundation of a
direct foreign trade at the South, and to introduce
coarse manufactures into the continental Eu-
ropean market One object of the "CoTToN
PLANT" will be, as the organ Of direct trade, to
stimulate the South to carry out this impo 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
criminate properly in their desire to promote South
enterprise.
The importance of Washington city, as point
Of location for such journal, especially in regard
to opening foreign correspondence and promoting
our foreign relations, is apparent. The opportu-
nifty Of seeing here, also, members Of Congress
from every district Of the country, present
means Of general cooperation not to befound else
where.
To the cotton, sugar, rice and tobacco planters,
we look confidently for supports and TO the friends
Of "direct trade" throughout the South we say,
"show your faith by your works."
The regular issue of the ''CoTToN PLANT" will
commence in June next. Advertisements are
particularly requested to be forwarded early.
