A amiple of the new crop, (ays.ie Char leuina Courier,) Upland Cotton, taken from the plantation ef Thomsm B. Ctarkpon. in Rieblnd District. on the V aterce river. has been lef at our olice. which has been pronoun ced by judges of the article to be well matured, and of good staple. We are informed that the cropain this section of country are a fortuight or three weeks behind those of the previous 5.- 5easo. The Augusta Chroaicle ofthe 25tis infLsavs, the first lsle of new cotton broupht to our mar ket this season was received yesterday at the warehouse of J. Alexander, from tho plantation of Augustus Lamkin. of Columbia county, and osld at 8 eents. The color of the cotton is brght, the staple good, and the quality about "fair." The bale of new cotton. received a rew days ainee by Mr. E. Henderson of this .ity was suld yesterday to A. Lafie. Esq. of Charleston, et 8cents per lb.-the quality was about"fair.'' Twoales were received by the Rail Road Ia evening, one from the plantation of John 1app, of Burke county. consigned to S. Good all, theether from Wilkinson county to J. W.

I am sorry to itform you that there is no doubt on the subject; and what Isame, that they threaten to be general. They . are not only at my plantation on Edisto Island, (and no doubt in other crops there) but they -areon several plantationson Johns Island-and I have just heard from a gentleman, recently from the South of us. that they have made their appearance on St. Helena; and as to their being the genuine sorts. I know them too well. from having been a frequent surer, to mistake them. Every circumstabee too, at the preent time, conspirep to favor their inerease. ur crops are gnerally backward-thero is snore than usual quantity of taxutiant and ten der weed for them to feed upon, and the wea ther is moist and sultry. 'othing can arrest them but the most vitorous measurs-resO. iately parsued-pon principles of an intelli gem e and an enlghtened economy. which is wtiling to nake an early acrifice of a u for the safety of the remainder;-and measures to be pursued by every plan n rin whose fields this terrible enemy shall . make their appearance. The plan is, to watch them closely; to meet theevil at the begiuning; and aempt to destroy them whilst their num bers are limited-and they are found only in certain spots in our field. . It appears to me. ifer one would do this at the firat appearance of tcaterpillar, at the frst and seod brood, before they spread over the fields, that they could be so much lessened as to do little injury, if they cannot be entirely u ed; and rurely no reasonable sacri6e be considered too great. or any trouble too much. to save to us the fruits of all our pevious labour of the year."
