EASTERN LANDS.

There are portions of our State, where the lands
ordinary, and the number of slaves is large In
which the people not knowing the advantages pos
sessed by the Eastern counties, in the low price,
and fertility of the swamp and upands, are one by
one going off to the Southwest in search of lands
upon which they can place their negroes to advan-
tacc We heard the other day that several veal
thy men making arrangements to leave War
rem and Halifax Counties, because of the difficulty
of making ample support for their negroes. Others
we heard were contemplating visit to the lower
counties in search of land.
We have tried to place before the public fire.
quently the advantages possessed by our Eastern
Counties and have been successful to some extent
in directing public attention to them No better
lands in the South and West can be found, than
ehave in abundance in the Counties of Edgccombe
Pitt: Beaufort, Tyrrell, Washington Hyde, Carter
ct, Craven, Jones, Onslow and Ilenoir. Mr Holden
in his address at Fayetteville states that there
million Of acres of swamp lands yet unopened in
the East and these are capable Of producing an
amount of grain, sufficient to the wants OF
the present population of the State. The high
lands in all these counties produce cotton well, and
they are ahundantly supplied with the means OF
improvements to make them at little expense
cuual to the cotton lands of the South. Why do
not our citizens of the middle aud upper counties,
whose large slave force require that they should be
on more productive lands come and see Why
90 West or South when all that you need can be
obtaind so readily and cheaply in the old North
State Every removal lessons her wealth and
available resources. Why leave the homes OF
your fathers, when you easily stock farms
in the lowlands, within days travel of home,
which will prove as remuncrative the lands of the
West?- Washington (N co. Despatch
