THE DEFENCE or GLENDENNING
IND ADAM

The principal defence of the Rev. Mr..
Glendenning, on trial before his church
in Jersey City for the ruin Of Mary Pom
eroy, appears to be that Miss Pomeroy
ran after him, and showed too much
partiality for him.
This reminds us Of the very earliest
defence there is on record-that Of Adam
in the Garden of Eden. "The woman
whom thou gavest to be with me, " mean
ly pleaded the first male reprobate, "she
gave me ofthe tree, and did eat. v
How far this contemplate defence
availed before the highest tribunal may
be learned by the Jersey City Presbytery
from the third chapter Of Genesis-M Y.

his wish to ally himself some day to

A Saving Word to the Planters More
Bread and Less Cotton.

Let this, in future, be tho watcf.
word of Southern planters. If our
people now had their corn-cribs, barns
and smoke-houscs we'll filled, and had
saved their domestic manure (Which,
for want of attention, was suffered
| to run to waste, } instead of creating
liens to purchase guano, they could
snap their fingers in the face of Mon.
sieur Panic.
The great dcsidcratum with plant
ers has alwas been plan'by which to
secure high prices for cotton. Many
cxpedients have been suggested -
many learned essays have been writ
ten many impracticable plans sug-
gested. notwithstanding all these
failures, there is q plan so simple, so
certain and cfiicacious, tflat it is abso-
lutcly amazing that it has not been
adopted long ago. 1t will secure the
object sought, beyond ali pcradvcn-
turc-it cannot possibly fail.
| Let Southern planters raise their
own supplies Of bread, meat and do
mcstic animals, and let manufactures
Of all the common ncccssaries Of life
be established in our midst, and nc
man will ever see another pound Of
cotton sold for less than twenty-five
centsH Planters have tho. remedy in
their own hands. 1t is safe, simple,
cerlain--as simple as the prophets
prescription for the cure Of Naaman's
leprosy Why will they not adopt it?
Is it because, like Naaman, they de-
sire to dosome "grcat thing ?"
O So long as cotton has to pay for
corn, flour, bacon, horses, mules. clo-
ching, agricultural implements, furni-
|ture, groceries, and even manure, it
will require all the cotton we can
make to purchase these supplies
and under the inexora } e laws of sup
ply and demand, the larger our crops
arc, ,;thc lower will bo the price Of the
commodity:
What profit is i: to q planter to
mako q hundred bales Of cotton, if it
requires hundred and ten bales to
pay for his family supplies, including
guano? Is it not infinitely better to
make but twenty-five bales, at 25
cents per pound, and his own sup.
plies? Whatever the cotton brings
will be clear profit. The planter will
hen have capital to invest in manu-
;lctures, or otherwise.
This is no empty theory. 1t is
vell-established fact. Let any planter
ook around him and inquire who has
'ecn compelled TO borrow money to
AIRY on farming operations. It is
he cotton planter who goes "the
whole hog" on cotton. From whom
ocs he borrow? PROM the man who
Asses, first, his own provisions, and
Forwards, what cotton he can make.
5 not this always truc2 No one
ill pretend to dispute it. What is
ood for one individual is good for the
'hole community. ...
Let our Southern planters adopt
&c policy recommended, and instead
being "hewcrs Of wood and draw
IS of water" they will become the
ost prosperous agricultural people
