A Southern journal, published eekly, to ad-
vocate direct trade, manufactures, agriculture, and
the development of Southern resources by c.. G.
BAYLOR, Washington, ID. 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 ne
elected. The "CoTToN PLANT" is established to
promote these interests, keeping entirely aloot
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 n medium of
general communication, correspondence, and In
formation for the friends of the measures adj
vocate. The proper steps have been taken in
Europe and America to lay the foundation of a
direct foreign trade the South, and to introduce
our coarse manufactures into the continental Eu-
rppean 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
crmnate properly in their desire to promote South
ern enterprise
The importance of Washington city, as a point
of location for such journal, especially in regard
to opening foreign correspondence md 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 co operation not to befound 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 say,
s'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.
