message. We, however, as a matter of courtesy,
append an abstract which ls certainly shorter and
perhaps mort; interest mg than Ibo document
Itself :
In regard to the Trench ocean cable company,
which has exclusive rights, calling oir tho United
Hintes from competition upon the shores of
France, tho President recommends tierce legisla?
tion "to protect the rights of lite cltbtcnaof the
United Stales ami Hie sovereignty of Ibo nation
ugainsi such un assumption."
Thc principal power? have 'leen Invited lo em?
power their representatives nt Washington to
agree upon; uniform regulations for thc pro?
tection nun comfort of emigrant paascngen.
Thc President eulogizes the good etrect or
home manufactures, ami urgen tho neueaslty or
looking lo new markets ror the sale or our surplus
products, advising thal China and Japan receive
cs|ieelal atleutlon. At Ute name time, thc Presi?
dent udvlsss such legislation ns will forever pre?
clude thc oust ivemcnt of thc Chinese upon our
soil.
Thc President soys:
On my assuming Ilia responsible duties of Chlor
Magi?!roto or Hie United Hintes, it was willi the
conviction that three Illings ?ero essential to Its
pence, prosperity mid fullest development: First
among these ls n'rlct Integrity lu riiliilllng nil our
obllgailous: -..conti, to scctiro proieelloti to thc
person and ,i opcrty or tho citizens or the United
Slates, lu edi and every port lon of our commun
country, wherever he may chouse to move, wim?
ont rereronco to original nationality, religion,
color or politics, demanding or him only obedi?
ence to thu laws and proper respect tor thc rights
or others; Mini, thc union of nil thc Sillies, with
equal rights, indestructible by nuy constitutional
mewn*.
To secure thc llrst, Congress lins declared that
thc principle and Interest ol thc debt sim il be paid
In oolu, nm! hua provided thc means or payment.
TM administration hus directed its ctrorts to se?
curing Hie honest collection and economical dis?
bursement ol the revenue, and has dismissed or
retained ofllclnls Tor Ihc gooil or thu service, lind
irrespective or thc political Interests or thu party.
Tho President urgently recommends thc total
repeal uf thc Tcnurc-of-onicc law, and advises
that tho Indians bo placed lu lurgc reservations,
with ample protection, with thc hope that they
may bc induced to set np lu time territorial gov?
ernments ot their own.
A liberal policy toward the navy Is recommend?
ed, ns ls also tho total abolition of tho franking
privilege. A liberal appropriation to the Agricul?
tural Unrcou ls strongly advised, and lt ls stoled
that the salaries or many or tho Important o tuners
.f thu government arc wholly Inadequate- among
these otllccrs arc thc JnsUccs of thc Supreme
Court.
In conclusion, the President says:
There arc many subjects not alluded to In thin
message, which might, with propriety, bc miro
doced, but! abstain, believing Hitit yonr patriot?
ism and statesmanship will suggest thc toptei
and ibo legislation most conducive to ihc inter

With thc management and profits of each

Thc great success In tho change ol rice

what a hugo venturo was it. It is now con?

Shall wc do lt, and to what extent ? This ia
worth^conshlcring. In thus doing, wo must
consult tito past as well as tho present.
This subject ls not new. lt wu? gravely
monlod, and, Indeed, tried, to souto extent, in
I/)wor St. Luke's some thirty years ugo. I be?
lieve tlic experiment was mudo here, and then
nil along tho coast. It was not continued.
Thc low price of sea islands hud Induced tito
abandonment thereof; Ibero wore not a few
potent reasons lot* resuming ita culUvntlon.
Tiley, amongst Hillel's, were these :
Tho plantations ot) Die. coast al Dio time
were crowded willi laborers, (Florida belntj
then bul little bettor than au Indian wlld.)
Thc sea island cultivation involving a small
acreage, in comparison with uplands, it waa
found necessary, In ndoptiug thu lnttor, eiliici
lo Increase thu area by purchasing lands or bj
planting tho fields over without fallowing.
The first was not feasible, for there were lit tit
or no lands in marient, and those that wen
could net bc lind ut juices hearing any propel
relation to Ute vnluo ol lands lu Die interior
Then, if tho upland system of culllvntiui:

and found to lils surprise that it was an ult ci
failure lu comparison with tho cotton worketl
lu tho usual manner. Il la moro Dian pro
bablo our plumers made i'm* samo mistake ir
supposing what "was sauce for Din go om

In tim m ea ii ti i nc sen Islands roso In m ark cl

planted could have no comparison In product?
iveness lo Improved varieties ot' bltort cotton
since Introduced, Indeed Ittul little advantage
in this regard over certain productive varie?
ties of sea Islands then planted-the "Hitit
Black," and others. Many productive and flnci
Boloctlons of sen Islands, of high market value,
were also Introduced nt. or nbout this limn.
Then, loo, ibo system of manuring bogan to bc
moro generally practiced. So soa Island cul?
ture took a now Impetus and grew apoco with
tho fertilization of tho soil, which becamo n
subject of grenl Interest, tin 1 found a more
careful development, on tho whole, on Kdisto
Island, though possibly carried by individuals
olscwlicro to a greater extent than was prac?
ticed even on Dds one:* favored and beautiful
island, so well known twUio gnrdcu-spot of the
Stale.
Notwithstanding inls recurrence to ooo
islands might seem to Ind?calo its greater
adaptability and profltnbtuncss, In tho opinion
of the olden time plantera, which, doubtless,
was the case in Hi cir situation, yet I am re?
minded of tho oft-repcatod romark of tho
upland planters of our district, who could raise
either variety on their lands. They used to
say that whenever coast negroes oro sold al
the courthouse upland pl milers nearly always
bid thuin off over tho hoads of tho coast
planters. Thc opinions of these men were
worth far moro than thc asking, and I re?
garded their views In Ibis direction OH of groat
favor at thc time. With this brief outline of
past experiment and opinion, what of the facts
of tito day ? Do they Justit}' tho chango 7 Our
circumstances differ much In material particu?
lars Irom tho past.
We no longer linvo troops of slav13 on ocr
backs, nor aro wo forsooth any louger on
theirs. Our Aulds nro wido open before us,
labor com pu iii tl vc ly scarce, our lands al
morely nominnl value, uplands greatly out?
rank us in comparatively market values, and
there ls no possible chance, for years ut louai,
of realizing anything Uko the production de?
manded in this groat staple. Fertilizers may
enhance Die production, but the colton, aller
all, has to bo picked, so that tho available
amount of labor In gathering tho crop mmd,
to a great, extent, Digit Iho practical amount of
supply. Of course, this remark muai bc some?
what qualltlcd, for, willi colton lo waste, it. is
but reasonable to suppose moro can bc gather?
ed to tho hand willi no greater diligence. With
full binnie labor you cannot altogether apply
the Incentive lo Increased diligence which
might be supposed by Dioso nu acquainted willi
lt. Uplands, therefore, must maintain tholr
own In market. Now, wo havo labor on Ibo
coast which, in Hie main, cannot bo got away
for lovo nor money.
It is, therefore, a labor nt hand widch must
bc used wham lt ls or not nt all. Our Ianda 111*0
opon to ono staple or tho oilier, and should wo
go Into uplands and succeed in raising fine
crops, wo have facilillas for gathoring not en
Joyed to tho samo extent elsewhere. Even

If we can ndoptaciill.lvntlon which will spread,

Notwithstanding tho past sr anon hos boen

for Boveral yours, uio question nrtrrs, and with
a little force, shall wo continue its cultivation?
Though n sovorc drought, extending through
August and September, (so extraordinary at
that season,) will account, In soino degree, Tor
thc disappointment of tho planter, whoso orop
wan so promising eveu lo the omi of July; and
though. In nomo case?, tho caterpillars nro
charged mil tho destruction of aBroall portion,
and thc i trly Croat may have further reduced

means of ascertaining thu extent ol' tho stcal
age? Not only ure our fields exposed to dep?
redations by night, but even while engaged In
picking for their employer, the negroes carry
off to their homos pockets wall Ailed with
tho precious staple, and, In a varloty or oilier
ways, man ige to abstract, In small quanti?
ties, enough to materially reduce tho income,
of tho sorely disappointed planter. Now, de?
tection ls so dlflicnlt, and redress so uncer?
tain, it behooves us seriously to consider what
wo can profitably substltnto as a crop. For
Bomu yearn past prices havo ruled so high that
tho planters could afford to havo a largo share
stolen whenever his crop vos not unusually
small; bnt now that ordinary cottons aro worth
no more than forty or fifty cents, (and wu do
not here stop to consider tho causes of this re?
duction,) it IB mnntfest that no oncean pay thu
orren t rates of labor, havo his work dono in
n slovenly manner, lose ono-thlrd of his crop

ing two thirds, except at prices much abovo
those now obtained.
If cotton must bo planted, let Iths "upland."
T o bulk being so much grea'or, tho aggregate
