The exposure of their interference will,
Mr.. Gadsden, through a private confden-

Sloo, supcrccdng that to Garay, was IN in

Treaty, and was made the condition of the
advocates, if not CO. partners, in the grant to

OF some Of its most favorable provisions in

longing to that town, who had falling
out With her husband, and threatened to
drown herself in the "great pond" Her
husband was not at first alarmed, but at
length she disappeared; soon her bonnet
and shaw! were dscored at the waters
edge, the alarm sprca throughout the
neighborhood, and diligent search was in
stituted. Several persons were engaged in
dragging in the pond, grappling irons
were brought into requisitioD, but 10 no

The CuitirdtiOn If Cotton IN Ijrt


The Cuitication of Cotton IN 1frica.-
Papers relative to the cultivation Of cotton
! in Africa have been presented to the Brit
isl House of Lords Ly command of the
Queen. They include two reports on the
subject from Mr.. Consul Campbell (of La
gos) to the Earl Of Clarendon, dated respcc-
lively the 9Th Of January and the 14;ll Of
March, 1857. An account is also given
Of the trade Of the Blight of Benin for the
year 1856, and it hence appears that the
| whole Of the Yoruba and other countries
south Of The Niger, with the Houssa and
Nuffce countries Oh the north side Of the
same river, have Gccn from all time cotton
growing countries; and that, notwithstand-
ing the civil wars, ravages. disorders, and
| Inscriptions caused by the slave trade, more
than sufficient cotton 10 clothc their popu-
lation has always been cultivated, and their
fabrics have found markets and a ready
sale i'll those lands where the cotton plant
Is not cultivated and into which the fabrics
OF Manchester and Glasgow have not yet
penetrated. The cultivation of cotton,
therefore, i'll the countries already named is
not new to the inhabitants; all that is re-.
quired is to offer them market for the
sale Of as much as they can cultivate, and
10y preventing the export of slaves from the
scaboard to render some security to life,
freedom, property and labor. 1t is cstima.
ted that the annual cultivation of cotton in
the loraba and the adjacent States is equal
to 100000 pounds. Whenever the cot
ton fabrics of England are introduced, via
the Niger, to the upper part of the Yoruba
and the circumj jacent districts, the natives
will probably sell their own cotton and
clotle themselves with tho lighter and
cheaper cloths of Manchester and Glasgow.
There is no hope Of inducing tho natives
to cultivate coffee because it is "pcw
thing" (tle Africans being obstinateIy con.
servat'vc,) and would require care, attention,
Intelligence, and, above all patience. Cot.
ton alone, therefore, can be looked to as an
agricultural marketable production, obtaina-
ble from the interior Of Africa. Meanwhile
English cotton fabrics are gradually work
ing their way into Africa and supcrsedinp
the native manufacture. The two greater
staples of the trade of the Blight of Benin
are palm oil and ivory, cotton ranking as
the third.
Mange in Swine.--JolIn Bonner, OF
Hancock county, Ga, communicates the
following nevcr-fxiling remedy for, mango,
to-wit: "Give tho pig or hog affected
according to age) from ten to twenty grains
of arsenic, twice a week for three weeks
feeding him plsptifulIy during the time, and
warrant that he will soon sl,ed off and
become perfectly well, fat and sleek. Il
will also cure the worst case of mango on
any dog. Ispeak from experience, and
there is no danger Of doses Of that size Kill
ling either pigs or dogs"

Some OF the papers are lecturing women
on extravaganza in dress, and advising the
to retrench, especially during the presen,
financial difficulty. Doubtless there are
many cases of unwarrantable extravaganza
IN this way; but do people ever consider
that two or three glasses Of brandy and
hall II dozen regalas, INDUCED in daily by
man, to say nothing of five and ten dol
lar dinners, amount 10 more in a year than
would be required to dress woman up To
the iuli requirements OF fashonl Much oI
Tins talk about the exIravagauce of women
Is nonsense. They are almost universally
careful and many trader would to day
have been safe and sound if he had listened
to the prudent counsels Of his wife, rather
than the reckless prompiirgs Of his own
ambition. 1t is natural for mean men 10
endeavor to shift the responsibility OF theiI
folly to other shoulders; but it is rather .oo
much to charge n commercial revulsion like
this upon ones wife and daughter.
