FLORIDA.
A Winter Sojourn in the Lovely Land Of
Flowers, Florida-With its Genial Cline,
and its noble St. Johns River.
FIFTH AVENUE HOTEL,


FIFTH AVENUE HOTEL,
New York CITY, Nov. G, 1851
Editor Rutland Globe AS cold, bleak,
biting winter, with all its dlscomforts,
forcing us into steam heated apartments is
closing in upon US, for from all sectors up
your way, and down east, the news comes,
snow has fallen, and soon old Jack Frost
IN all his glory, will proclaim himself king
throughout the Green Mountain state.
Reader, just reflect, that while all in Yer
mont, is buried in snow, frozen up, block
ed with ice-and cold, bleak, biting blast
from The north, is penetrating every crack
and cIevice, that TO some is past enduring,
just reflect that in one Of these United
States, not far away nor across the Attain
tic, but in a state of this Union, with it's
tropical cline and fruits-Flolida, our
own Florida, with its genial cline, sunny
skies, groves upon groves of the golden,
luscious, sweet oranges, its noble st. Johns
river, with its Jacksonville mandarin, the
residence of Mrs. Beecher Stowe, Hibernia,
Magnolia, Green Cove Springs, st. Angus
line, Palatka, and on down to Enterprise,
Mellonville and Indian River country, is a
land Of promise, a perfect paradise, and to
whence the thousands have already COM
menced their journey, for everything
goes to show The stream of settlers and
visitors TO Florida this season will be larger
than ever known, and as an evidence, we
have this date letter from Mr.. Campbell
of the st. James Hotel at jacksonville,
gentleman of extreme caution as to what
he utters-he writes: "Already the num-
Der of sick and settlers are greater than
ever known before-nO one ever knew the
travel to set in thus until late in December,
and now, reader, reflect again, and in
whatever section Of Vermont or New
England You read this, just you
reflect, that while you are shiveling with
cold and hugging around red-hot stove,
that one OF your couutrymen, Frank ii.
Orvis, esq, of Manchester, at his new
house in Palatka, Florida, is basking in all
the luxurles of spring like cline, pluck
ing the golden, sweetest oranges, known to
this world, and having nice time gener-
ally, in summer clothes and straw hat, with
the sweetest of songsters by day, the wild
est of singers, the hooking bird, with Choir
uses by night of Pratt, Palatka Herald
base jubilee soDgsters, the Ocklawsha river
alligators. This is Florida in winter
where now the hotel system, has undergone
thorough and decided change for the bet
ter, because the hotels are nearly all
owned by such gentlemen as Frank Ii. Or
Wis, of the Putnam hotel, Palatka, and J.
II. Campbell, esq, of the st. james hotel,
Jacksonville. In addition to this, the
steamboat life on the st. Johns will be en-
livened by the addition of the new steamer
Hampton, from the Chesapeake bay Of the
old Dominion steamship fleet, that ply be-
tween New York, Norfolk and Richmond,
Va, while the Atlantic Gulf railway from

EXPORT OF COTTON CLOTH.

There Is fair prospect that cotton will
once more be king, but his throne will be
In New England not at the south. The
raw material will not be enthroned as mon
arch-his throne has been abdicated and
the manufactured cloth will rule in his
tn anu!a ured product will jointly rule
the one in the southern field and the
other IN the New England factory. Ameri-
can manufactured cotton cloth now finds
market and ready sale in England. In
June last, an invoice of "brown cottons,"
consisting of ten bales, was sent to Eng
land as an experiment, and already the ex
pertinent is bearing excellent results.
During the last week, twenty-five hundred
bales of brown cottons, manufactured by
the Continental company of Lowell, were
sold for export to Manchester, England,
and The same day, the company received a
cable order for one thousand more bale,
on the same terms but declined to fill the
order. Tnis sale and order, the CONNER
cial Bulletin says, formed the principal
topic of conversation on the street, caused
better feeling in all lines of goods, and
was an " element of encouragement to
cotton holders"
There are several reasons why this large
shipment should cause better feeling in
commercial circles. 1t indicates that our
manufacturing establishments will be kept
in constant operation during the winter, as
this foreign demand will necessitate an in
creased manufacture--and this increased
activity will extend to other branches OF
business so that we have the first real indi-
cation Of substantial revival of business.
just at this time, too, aside from the gene
raj revival of business indicated, it is es-
pecially gratifying. MS the result of such
foreign trade will be to increase our stock
of specie, giving US another source of sup
ply-for these cottons must be paid for in
gold-so that it is one important step to.
wards resumption of specie payments. In
it, too, we find that the policy of protect
ing American manufactures is now pro-
ducing its natural results. The nurtured
manufactures are now able to compete
with England, they were fostered in their
infancy and are no@ able to stand alone.
A tariff for their protection is no longer
needed, 80 that, when the exigencies of the
country shall allow it, the duty can be re-
moved, without injury to the manufac-
turers but with benefit to the people II
is claimed that protective tariff enhances
the price, but even with that enhanced
price we can compete with England-what
cannot we do without il

We referred, some weeks ago, TO the
claim made by Benjamin II. Cheever
against the bankrupt estate of Henry
Clews g. Co., for some one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars, or one quarter of
the profits of that firm as the financial
agents of the government, and to the fact
that Cheever had testified that one-eighth
of the profits were to be paid to Louis
Dent, the presidents brother-in-law, and
another eighth, or quarter, to one flames
VanBuren, myth whom he was unable
to locate. At that time, the hearing on
the claim had not been concluded, but had
been adjourned in order to give Cheever an
opportunity of examining his papers, in
Washington, for the purpose of ascertain
ing who this VanBuren was or is. That,
or some sort Of an examination, has been
made aud as the result, Cheever announces
that his claim will be dropped. This de-
termination on his part, only serves to
deepen the belief that "James Van Buren,
was man of straw, representing some one
high in authority-an impression strength
ened by the connection of Louis Dent
Herewith, and by the fact that this claim
is founded upon written contracts. the con-
sideratlon of which were the lobbying
efforts of Cheever to secure the appoint
ment of Clews' firm as financial agents.
The country would not have been disposed
to let the inquiry drop, and would have
found some method of probing the scandal
to the bottom, but Clews' trustees have
saved them this trouble by announcing
their determination to continue the ex-
animation OF Cheevcr, and ascertain what
there is of the claim. We trust they will
make thorough work of it. If the pres-
dent, or any other official, has been en-
gagged in selling Offices, the country can
not know it too soon or if Cheever is a
perjurer as well as a lobbyist he cannot be
to a speedily exposed and punished.
