Why should an American buy foreign Wstch,

Why should an American needlessy enrich
foreign Watch manufactures at the expense of our
own artisans!
Why should an American senG gold to Eng land

Why should an American buy an imported
Watch, which. In nine GASES out of ten, will cost
more to keep In order for ne year, than Its orig-
nal price, and which was never intended to keep

Why should Americans not patronize more

NdAmfAt6N, 1bSr tCtpOGI IL 1o0%-
Enclosed find sample of cotton, growth Of
1860, from near Clear Creek Landing, on the
Mississippi, sixteen miles west Of Jonesooro.
The writer says it is q sample Of the first pick
irg Of a field Of one-third Of an acre, yielding
forty pounds Of genuine cotton, or at therate
Of 120 pounds to the acre. The second pick
ing was not weighed, but was much larger
than the first. 30 confident is this party Of
the value Of cotton growing in that part Of
the State, that he cfIers to rrnt 500 acres for
this crop, and take onc-tlfth OF the crop for
reEt.
The sample, you will see, is Of most excel
lent quality, and is another proof that tie
South part of the State is within the true cot
ton growing zone. Br turning to the map,
you ELL find it on the same parallel with
Kichmcpd, Va. It is well kuo Hu thls ia the
Vaflty Of the Mississippi, that the summers
are three to four degrees warmer THAI tae
| same latitude east Of the Blue Ridge This will
carr9 the cotton fields faruD towards the c.nter
Ottbe State and with the presen price OF cotton,
| tie larae pumeeF OF c.,utraoands accustomed
| Ia its culture now coming into that part OF
| the State, together with an abundance Of good
seed, we SHAH be surprised it cotton culture
| does not become th. leading crop in the
southern part Of the State next season. We
have three fourths Of an acre Of the most
vigorous rowth, but rot get ripe; she wing
that this point is too far north, except ia IA
| vorah1e seas ons, the present one having been
tco wet for the crop TO ripen-
To this date We have had no frost to injurc
the most tender plaRt, and Judging from pres
ent appearances, 1t may he some days Yet be.
fore such an event may occur. Tois will give
us at least one picking Of cotton, which al
rresent prices will pay better than corn.

The nomination Of Gen. Charles Devens for
Governor OF Massachusetts, BY the Peoples
ULion Convention, is q shrewd dodge Of the
"eminent respectability catch votes against
GOV. Andrew. Gen. Devens Is an old whig Of
no recent politics. He made his reputation
in Massachusetts as United States Marshal,
under President Fillmore, and retired from Of
fee with the odium Of several slave cases upon
him. Since then he had been in the practice
Of law, at Worcester, until the call for militia
troops, in April, 1861, took hi17 to the field as
major commanding battalion of infantry.
He 1e-enlsted and Was made colonel Of the
llth volunteers. The affair at Balls Bluff
made him brigadier general, and he Is nov
attached to the army Of the Potomac. Gen,
Deyens has shown himself brave and gal
lant officer, and II he is as shrewd as brave, hi
will not permit his political future to be i'm
periled BY the present one Of his name in
contest that can hut end in modification ant
defeat. Massachusetts, has rewards for all he
brave sons, but for the present she will sticl
