Titus REaMEDY FOR THE EMBARRASSMIENT OF :CorTos PLANTERS AT THE SoUTH AND SOU-rn-W srT. .iTheinterestsof these sections are in a :rnaner identical, their crops and modes of cuiitatiin biing similar, the only differ ence'to be discerned is found in the grea ter productiveness-of- the present time, of -the soil throughout the latter. The agri cultural. prospects and the doings of the plaier will be considered more in refer. enieeto the. latter. Good men, and true,have devoted much attention to:.the agriculture of this country; they have given good and wise precepts ; they have striveni t-change the present iuploasanut state of--affairs; -and most as iniredly have their labors -heen effectual. lieremay not be any vrcy marked change, but there has been meh-improvement in the mode of managing an estate, which :will iu due, time bear;an;-bnindait har vest. That the best is not dgne, that the -precepts have not had fulltonsideration, ny one nian may see forhimself, but no reasonable man could- expect to change a routineof almost -half it centur 's stand ing..iu a-few moments; to cha the hab its.oa-people requires almostan age ; to see the change. has certainly began,is uf ticiedi; and to sho- it, witness sthe, les of hay, port beef; muton, ood; fl-uit, sic~ f4rom M1ississipi tuhi "the -pagt'18 too low for the cotton plant se.B eanuot afford to make cotton when -hoe yietditg over from $100 to $140 fltaehad.* It. maiers not how this state of- griculturaI depression was brought about: whethert - be caused by the tariff. whetler--V_ the baunks loaning freely, and- 1hut':cbusig increased product, or how; the important matter is not toquarrel about who, or what cause-t, but like working men apply the means to effect a change. Can a change he effected ? What means should he ap plied ? and when should they be- applie.-? are questions open for iuvestignation. A writer in the last number of the Con mnercial Review, answers themoat length ; whether satisfactory to the -teople ornot, it is not necessary to say. To strike at the root of the evil, it would he well to exam ine the whole matter, as the lawyer would his case, or the physician his patient, and not content to rely on a few statements. The planter is regretting. his pecuiar hard lot; his negroes are worked full hours, and he receives a bare pittance of the re turns made to the manufacturer or to the sugar planter: lie plants more cotton,. works his niegroes harder, drives all day anmd part of the niight, and yet he eam plains. Like the nostrumn veuder, he will ntot be convinced that calomel is killinag his paitienit, but he gives larger neod larger do ses. What is the result ? :He is compelled io pay doctors larger bills'lbr attenmionson itesick, caused by over-worki; he-has to -pay to Kentucky larger prices fo! mules or horses, and hemp, the price-beinig increa sed by the increased demiand;J.le wants mo~re meat and more bread, e~w.ing to his not having ime to make then).;~ he has to make a greater show of wealth..as his poor neighbors who make lesi. cottoti and mtore meat and bread, and clothing, amnd colts, and stock generally, are beginming to buy conveyances for their families to ride to church in ; he turos oli an overseer every few month4, and finally lamneots, un til lie is wea-ry, over his fate. Should such a man be advised.Io hold on to his crop for better prices ? A pply, to the Legislature to give premiums ? Make loss cotton ? Build up Manoufactories ? Thiis has been done agai and again. What then counsel him to do ? Examine . the case wvell, and let at planter who has long watched the course ojf events, act as a kind of mentor, whilst yon-are makinig an examination. Do you not see that on this plantation the negroes are- over-worked. althuogh they are fed high ; you see .no smnall children ; you hear niot. the cheerful eong nor the laugh hat comes from the happy negro. You will also please to ob 'serve the beautiful quality of thebjay, put - .p in handsome square bales; these bales ate .from Ohio, and good-hay it. is.

You will find yonder a fine, sleek, well conditioned horse, he belongs to the overseer; and near at hand you see the rough outside of a very good carriage horse, corn is too scarce to feed him with. Ah ! and there goes the plan ter ; he has just -returned from a political stump harangue, where the planters have been discussing -the merits of the candi dates for the next Presidency. Shall we visit the house, and see the China and the silver, and silk and lace, and extra ser vants? No, no !. We will not enter into tl sanctum of the injured one-he is an injured man. The merchant and the mau facturer have conspired to put him down. England determines to take his slaves from hint : he is despondit.g, and cannot for the soul of him go to work like the manufac: turer, or the merchant, but expects the "good old times" to return again. have younseen onough. Can you ace what is first requisite? Let the planter set to work himself, and turn off his overseer; let hint make his oread, his meat, raise a few colts and hay to feed them on ; let him increase the quantity of corn and forrage until he can spare'alittle, let him take the interest in his own business that the merchant or manufacturer must who expects success; let him learn his sons that idleness is the road to-ruin ; let him teach his daughters that they are the future makers or narrers of this beautiful republic ; let himt ever re member theold saying, "master's footsteps are nure to his land," and we think he will e less cause to repine, and more cause to think that his '"lot is cast in happy places." Good, very good, sir; you have now struck-at the root of the evil, and it is to .be hoped that you will enter more minutely into the particulars how all these matters should he effected. The question in the latter part of the second paragraph are answered in a som mary manner above, the answers follow as evidently as cause precedes its effect ; un less there was a remedy thero, would be folly in talking of it. If the remedy be not ftund in diminishing expenses, practising frugality and industry, and thus of course diminishing the amount of cotton for sale, then- there is no use to search.-for a reme dy. And if these things can and ought to be done; then promptness should be the the watchword.- The merchant who con iiols..his millions, is found 'attending to his business ; true, he' has'liis clerks add'poi ters, but he is.uiot; the leis dili etiij..The lam wlM . sisign~caanotspard the lne from ins' "pre scriptions' andlbis "visits."-. The menu facture.r, ever workinp "short hours," has to examine into the "s.tate' of trade." or else he-will lose his "market.". Why tlptn should the planter above all others he per. tmitted t:+ pass his -lays and. nights in list less idleness.; Has he exemption from "by the sweet. of thy-face, thou shalt earn thy daily bread ;". or, "he that will not work, neither shall-he eat." There is one thing certain; the planters of the South and the South*est must give up sloth and idle tess ;. ey must take the lesson taugh: hy Hercules to the wagonrier : "put youtr shoul. ders to the iheel." Besides this, they must pursue.a more. mixed course of hus bandry, they have reeled long enough on the one thing, it is high time another course was pursued. That manufactories would benefit this portion of the United States there is not a shadow-of doubt; that Legislative aid, di rected to developing the latest facilities of the country would, is evidently plain. That making less cotton would enhance the price is highly reasonable. But -were all these done, and the presetnt practice purscede the impllrovemenit w ould lie delu sive. 'Ijhe redress to be effecitiid must comimen?!e at home ; the imiprovemetnt to be valid and permaaet-tmust start at the planter's own house.. Th'e Eleb1ric Gun.-This great destroy ing power is at present exhibiting in London.; It is a smnall carriage rutining upon a %ir of wheels, and huvinig a thirtd wheel attached. by which it traverses with ease and-steadliness. The barrel ford dischar ging the bullets is over the body of the tmachtine, and -admirably adapted for ta king aim at any altitude, so that a'pigeon's fight could be followed in the air. It is supplied with halls by twvo chambers, one of which is fixed, the oilier mnoveable. TLhe latter -is called the volley chamber.. and came 'be tmade to contain any number of balls. -T~he model contains tt50 balls, but, is constructed to hold 200, from [,000 to 1.200, it is stated, could bie discharged in a minute; tand so great is the force with which the balls were sent a distnce of forty yag1s, that a liich plank was pen etrated at every shot, the balls flattening. and in some itnstances were scattered into fragments. The volleys are shot off' in quick suCession, and wvhile beitng reloaded, the staemnary chatmber continues to supply the, bari'el, so that a~constant discharge may be obtained for months if required. The bullets are five-eighths of an inch in diamiote'but, with a litle enlargement of apparatess, balls of an inch diameter could be disc5'arged with increased force. The bullets now used would kill am the dtstance of one mnile. It is stated that the cost of keeping the mnachine in action, requiring four..ea in eighteen hours, wotild be ?10, throwini" more bullets than two regiments, each w or ing nine hours, whose expen ditiure in.cartridges would tie ?3,500. *Qmdk core.-The rapidity with-which bottles 6%e madfis einidiit incredible. -A -ok-f,witmh the nasistanenoft a ;atherer and blower, will begin and flash one buc dred and twenty dozen of quart botitles its ten hours which averages nearly two and! a qarter per minute, and this is ordinari-" ly done, and in some works rho mon are restricted to two per minute to prevent the. work being slighted. Sing ular Fact abcut Angravers.-Cist's Advertiser informs us that William flar rison, who came to this country in 1792. t was the first bank note engraver'in the U. 'States. He engraved the plates for the United States Bank. He had five - sons all engravers. Richard 'H.. one '!f the sons, come to Marietta in 1841. and finish ed the first copperplate engraving ever executed in Ohio. 'His two sols now car ry on the same business in Philadelphia. Another brother left four sons, all engrav ers. One of these had a son learning the business. Here is a singular case to occur in this country. A family for four genera tions following the same branch of me chanical business. There are published at this moment in Paris no less than 25 daily newspapers. These Journals have an aggregate circu lation of 150,000 copies.-Of these. the four journals having the largest circulation are the Constitutionnel, the Presse. the Siecle, and the Journal des Debat. These four papers have a~n average circulation of over 25,000 each. Correspondrnce of Ite Chars. Even. News. Nnw YomK, August 13, 1846. The suicide of William M. Price, Esq , formerly U. S. District Attorney, and con nected with the arlair of Swartwout, will remind you of that of the English painter H aydott. Both were accomplished in the same cool and deliberate manner-both were produced by the same cause-pecu miary embarrassments. Poor Hayden hadt received a dunuing letter from an attor- t ney-Price had an execution on his furui tore. Hayden had formerly been tyeli patronized, and was now neglected. Poor t Price had been rich, and was liberal, lend ing his money to all who asked him, but when poor he found none in return these favors. Each wrote letters to their fami. t lies, and both shot themselves with a pis tol. I note these circumstances because - both these men were widely known, a'd the events are of recent occurrence. : Probably no man ever. put an end to his I life with.i'ore coolness and self-possession. t '1hbog hMr. Price must ibave. been. cut of tid pithejtset !loth hittingithe "bull'st& eye." Tiere is nerve for you-for you .c must consider that his death was deter- t mined upon. and that be had upon .his I person the letters written to his wife and . to the Coroner. Mr. Price oan.Englishman by birth -a ruttier of Stephen Price, formerly Manager of the Park Theatre. He leaves a wife and several children. One of them, a clerk in the Astor House, was sent for as soon as the body was recognized, and at the first sight of his father he fell senseless upon the floor. Another son is t lawyer, and both are esteemed by all who know them. 1t is a very sad aifair. The Government has chartered three ships for the California Expedition, which, it is umn said. will tie accompanied by two companies of regulars-to promote disci pline, I suppose. The .Vice-President has gone to the Virginia Springs-not choosing to risk a public reception in Philadelphia,-that city whose character is so muih at variance wi'h its loving name and peaceful ap pearance. So our Democratic commit tees will not take that excursion just for the piresenit, Congress, forty years ago. -We some tinte since took occsion to animadvert on wthat we cannot help calling the littleness of Congress in furnishing pen-knives for its tmetmbers. But we did not then ktnow that this spirit had actuated our legislature to a still greatter extent in the olden time. We have since seen the fact recorded that int 1807 the New S.igland members. were fusnished with molasses for the purpose of making their favorite drink of switchel; and this item wvas charged in the general appropriation hill under the head of 'sta tionery." Col. Claiborne, atn old mem betr frotm Virgiuia, tmoved on one occasion to insert an item for supplying the South erta members with something stronger. It wvas accorditngly done, andI fur several sessions alter, mint slings. (juleps had not then been discovered) and peach and ho ney drams3, were supplied and charged uttder the hond of "fucl." Atnd it is re markable that Congress burned more wood thea than it has ever done since.-Even. News.

" The Memphis Con vention was called, and w-as attended by the most prominent men of the WVest anC South. Distinguished above all otheri came Mr. Calhoun, whose lotng and bril liant career in the chief departments o governamenit naturally indicated him as th President of the body-and the man whosi counsel was to be first called for. He de livered a speeh on taking the chair whiel satisfied and delighted the Convention and was received with general approba ion throughout the Union. It wvas, how ever, not so well approved in some part of Sout I Carolina and Virginia-and Mr Calhoun was threatened wvith the loss c some of his friends. The proceedings of the Miemphis Con vemntion wvere howvever Sadat to Congres with a memnorial, and the .whole subjec was committed to a select Committee, c which Mr. Calhoun ras mde Chairrmac IIe thus had an oppoirtunity of presentin is views in the most elaborate and corn prehenlsiv'e manner-and has done soi his report. This document is peorhaps on of the most able and characteristic of th many pirofoddd adid otigintal dchievemen' of Mr. Calhoun's :mind. It is a maste piece, combining miany qtialities o'f th highest order, an'd sich' as, from their dia similarIty, are. seldom united in the pint ductions of the same mind. . It is at onc actite and comtprnehensive, deep and clea1 plain and new. .

And the word 'e'gulag s comprehends provisions for- tbe sfety-ali t convenience of transit as well as rules t 'the mere convenience of .exchange. :H limits also the power of the fedeka[ gov ernment to such rivers as belong' to mre than two States, since two States, but nol more, tnay, under the Constitution,- make compacts with the consent 9f- Con gress, and may therefore unite for the imirove" ment of their rivers. But the States caa1 r not, under the Constitution, make treaties; and therefoie - a ariangement 'between more than two must be by.treaty, they-are absolutely disqualified from such works.. That the framers of the Constitution themselves believed that power had.been given to Congress to provide for the safety and convenience of commerce is inferred from the actual exercise of such power by the-first Congress that met after the unions which commenced. the.light house.ystem along the Atlantic toast. And if govera ment be authorized to incur expense to point out -danger .to- the navigator, it is surely competent to remuye the danger, particularly ,if-less expensive. - But ir. Calhoun rejects the improve ment of harbors, as well on the general ground that they-are within the limits of States and not between them, as are riv ets, as because the Constitution' contem plates their iniprovetiienf by the States to .whom it gives evidently for that purpose the-power of levying tonnage -duties with the consent of Congress.

Ad Valorem Duties.-The Express has not-yet corrected its oft-repeated assertion that in the case of advalorem goods, Cus tom House appraisers are bound by the in voice except in cases of fraud. Of course its readers, if they have no better source of information, will continue to Believe that the importer can enter his goods at what ever valuation he:likes, provided only he can escape the itnputation of fraud: Some of the protectionists, we dare say, honestly believe that fraudulent invoices are freq'uent at our Custom H-ouses, sad that ven -where fraud cannot be proved, goods- are got , through the Custom House at price. far rbelow their true value in the foreign port. Such men ought not to be confirmed in their delusion by the public press, but on .the contrary, ' they should be- aad~e to understand. 1st.
