To Miss Richings.

. Wise, beauteous, good o, every grace combined
That charms the eye oaptivntes the mind
Fresh, rs the noweret opening on the morn,
Whose leaves bright drops Of liquid pearl and down.
Sweet, as the downy pnionsd gale that rovas
To gather fragrance in Arabian groves;
Mild, rs the melodies at close Of day,
That heard remote along the vale decay
Yet why with these compared What tints 30 fine.
What sweetness mildness, be matched with thine =
Why roam abroad, since recollection true
Restores the lovely form to fancy's view
Still let me gaze and every beguile--
Care on that cheek where all the graces smile
That soul xpressng eye, benignly bright,
Where meekness beams inehable delight;
That brow, where wisdom sits enthroDed serene,
Each feature forms and dgni6es The mieni
Sill let me listen. while her words mpar
The sweet efasions of blameless heart"

Cotton is BY much the mos. important element in the
commerce Of the world II is the chief and most yalua
bic article both in the domestic and export trade Of the
United States. and is the great staple production OF the
South and not this continent only, but the whole
world, has deep concern in everything affecting the
production and price OF cotton Hence the anxiety and
interest with which, both sides OF the Atlantic. is dis
cussed The question of the probable amount OF the present
crop OF cotton recent number OF British journal,
the Economist. presents facts and submits some
specua,ons concerning the probable prices ana produc
non OF the growing crop OF cotton, which fail
attract the attention OF the planter. the merchant and the
manufacturer in this country. all OF whom Gas is indeed
the entire community are vitality interested in the sub
ject
In Great Britain the chief is to the supply
Of cotton with the question is as 10 the price OF cot
ton In effect these questions and the same.
the supply determines the price The Economist is OF
opinion that the present crop OF cotton will command
even higher price than the last, and il supports
its conclusion by adequate arguments. The cotton
crop of the United States for the year ending Au-
gust 81. 1852 reached 3ol5.029 balesbeing 659,772
bales increase upon of the last year, sls.
323 bales increase upon the crop of the year pre-
cedng the last, and 625 O5 bales than the aver.
age crop OF the last six years. But the increase OF
sumption more than kept pace with the increase OF pro-
duction. and hence the price was enhanced and the
stocks reduced In September of 1852 the price OF cot
ton was twenty per cent higher than in September OF
1851 Blu, the stocks were much smaller, appears
from the following table:

The judges OF the superior court OF the State OF New
Hampshire have given the following opinion respecting
the eonsuiionay OF the proposed liquor law Of that
State
First The bill coners Justices OF authority
the constitution does not sancton particularly In respect TO
the power gives them 10 pronounce sentence OF forfeit
ure on liquors seized for a violation Of the law
Second The bill provides for trial by jury, for
appeal and trial by jury before higher The
stution provides that in all controversies concerning prop
eIty the parties have right 10 a trial by jury
Third The seventh section Of the conflicts directly
with the constitution Of the United States. This section
provides that action be maintained in any
In the State either In whole or in part, for intoxicating
spirinous liquors sold In any other State county. No
law OF this Stale deprive citizen of the United States
OF the right enforce claim OF debt before the tribunals
oil this State
Fourth. Liquors properly. The law in recognising
them such In the fourth section when In the hands Of
town authorities for sale and mechanical use cannot by
the force OF lew phrases make property lose its character
when in other custody.
Fifth Double increased penalties in of convic-
tion under appeal because IL operates penalty upon
the party claiming appeal conflicts with his rights to
appeal, and cannot be supported by the constitution.
Sixth. The bill is designed by ts provisions demand
excessive bail and render it difficult for the accused 10
procure securities II il had been added that the accused
should have the benefit Of counsel defend him, the
parallel between the present law and the practice in Eng
land in former days would have been complete.
Seventh The conviction OF principal through any act
of agent is held To be unconstitutional The accused
should be confronted with the witnesses against him,
says the constitution, but the liquor bill says and il
is therefore opposed the constitutional rights Of the
citizens
Eighth The people have right to be secured against
all unreasonable search Of their dwellings, &c., and all
such search must be under oath, according to
the constitution but searches and arrests may be made
according to the BILL without OATH and 1t is
thus unconstitutional
In conclusion, the judges state that of the Injections
are Of the serious character.

Georgia can beat that AT the late election in Bulloch
county in this State. two hundred and eighty votes
were poed for Pierce and King. and not for Scott
and Graham We have indeed learned that one man pre-
scented himself al the polls with the purpose of voting the
Scott ticket but il being suggested that he had
been an inmate OF lunatic asylum the election inspect

The result of the movement of Mr.. Brooks,

have been expected. Ga his proposition to-

report on the revision of the Tariff at this ses-
sion, the magnificent support of fifteen yeas
was obtained on the first vote; and on the sec
ond trial was swollen to twenty.iour Who

MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE.

Having given place to tho essays on Marriage
and Divorce by Mr.. Henry James, in reply to
attacks upon him in The OJscrrer, we have
concluded to extend like hospitality to the
queries of Mr.. S. 2. Andrews, suggested by
aud relating to the essays Of Mr.. james. Our
own views differ may radically from those of
both these gentlemen; but we court rather Than
decline discussion on the subject, and are salts
fed that the temper and tendencies of our
times render such discussion eminently de-
s.roble if not yitally necessary. Let US now
briefly set forth our own idea Of the ma ter:
This is pre6mnently an age of Individual
ism Git would hardly be polite to say Egotism,) }
wherein the Soyer ignty of the Individual -
that is the right OF every one to do pretty
nearly as he pleases-is already generally pop
ular, and visibly gaining ground daily. Why
should not A. E., living on our side of the ST.
Lawrence and making hats, exchange them
freely with c. D., living ON the Canada side
and growing wheat, without paying a heavy
'mpost or violating law - Why should not
K. /. lend his money at ten or twenty per
cent. TO C. II. if the latter is wiling to pay
that rate, and sees how he can make more by
st - Why may not |. J. educate his own
children, il lie secs it, and decline paying any
'SchoClTax - AID why should not John
Nokes and Lydia Nokes be at liberty to dis
solve their OVID marriage, if they have no chill
dren or have provided for such as they have.
and believe that they may secure happiness
= in new relations which is unattainable in the
present These questions all belong TO the
same school, though the individuals who ask
them may be of specifically different creeds or
porsuasions. They all find their basis and ali.
ment in that idea Of Individual Sovereignty
which seems TO US destructive alike of Social
and personal well-being
The general answer 10 these questions i'm.
PORTS that the State does not exist for the a.
vintage and profit Of tLis or that individual
but TO secure the highest good of all-not
merely OF the present but Of future genera.
tons also-and that an act which ia itself and
without reference TO It's influence as a prece.
dent, might be deemed innocent, is often rem.
dered exceedingly hurtful and eulpable By its
relation to other acts externally undistinguish-
able from it. Ahundred cases might be cited
in which the happiness of all the parties imme-
diately concerned would be promoted by lib
erty of Divorce; and yet We have not doubt
that such liberty, if recognized and established,
would lead to the most fragrant disorders and
the most pervading calamities We insist,
then, that the question shall be considered
