We caunot allow the poor sable creature to exhaust all our sympathies ; and when we hear foolish, well mean^ ing people, whose minds seem incapable of receiving uiore than-one idea. eVu)t in tlio hope of a slnvo insurrection ? which wolihl put and end to the production of cotton in America?wo can but" wonder at ihestrauee Mifatuation that i?revon!< their seeir.rj-how it wc ulJ affect us.

Are we. then, so dependent on American cotton f At present it is but too tru*. America supplies nearly three fourths, of our tot ton, and therefore the greatest danger that eon. threaten this country at. the present lime is a sudden cessation of the svpphj of cotton from America. The Fiench Emperor of (he'ohi Indie*, with, all his dreadful fleet* and . hrmies, is a pet lamb in cornparieon with such an event, At? enormou* amount*of British capital. and the h'vea of mil Hon* of British people, depend-on our cotton sim ply being constant and adequate.

Tlie corn crop, particularly, In Anderson District, Is being greatly damaged by the heat and drouth, and unless the latter ruins should soon come, the resnlt will be disastrous, at least to the oj>-!and crop. Nanght but plenteous seasons can revive the almost blighted prospects of the farmers.

Much sympathy ft manifested for him anJ Ids family in this sad affliction. It ia hoped that she will finally >ecovef, and be restored in health, to her family and friends, though she has been unable to spe*1c for several daya The can rasa for the legislature is pro greasing.
