V ed 150 acres in cotton, and never was able to make more than fifty bales. lie determined to manure; and to enable him to make a tiial, he planted 10 acres less, that is 140 acres. From these with the manure he was able to make, he gathered 51 bales. A small gain, but it was a gain. The next year he planted 130 acres, and manured a little more, with still a small increase of crop. The past season he planted only 120 acres, still increasing the application of manure, and made 68 bales. He is confident that if the season had been good, he would have made 75 bales; or an increase of 50 per cent, from merely lessening the quantity of land planted to enable him to manure. His intention is, next year to plant only 100 acres, and he will doubtless increase his crop in much greater proportion than he lessens the land in cultivation. If he would now, proceeding as cautiously as mfrnrlnnn IIV UCL3 U'JIIC Wilis 11.11, uu?uiiy imivuavi' the culture of roots, or grass, or both, to enable him to enlarge his stock of cattle, he might derive from the increased quantity of manure a profit that would compensate him for the labor, whilst the additional cattle would be clear gain. EDITOR'S CORRESPONDENCE. Columbia, Monday, Nov. 23, 1840. De?.R SIB ; The House of Representatives, met at 12 o'clock M., and proceeded to organize itself, by calling F. W. Davie to the chair. The members elect, from the several districts of the State, appeared, were quail- j fied, and took their seats; except those froro Richland, as to wlioni some diffi- j 0 cnlty existed, arising from the return of the managers, in which they stated, that seventeen illegal votes had been given at Columbia. It appeared also from that return, that the Democratic candidates had a majority of the votes at that poll. The Chairman inquired of the House, what course should be taken in relation to the members from Richland, who appear-' ed and claimed their seats. Mr. M vers j moved, that they be allowed to take them. This motion was seconded by Mr. Rhctt, and opposed by Mr. Henry. The discussion became warm and animated, and was participated in by Messrs. Perry, B. F. Hunt, Myers, Bellinger, and j others. It was contended on the one side, that the return of the managers was at least prima facie evidence, upon which ; the House might act in the first instance, j and permit the Wnig members to 1m j sworn?postponing its final decision, upon j tiie questions involved in the case, to the ccming in of the report of Committe of Privileges and Elections, t< whom the matter would necessarily !>< referred. On the other hand it was inFisted, that the return of the managers declared fraud upon its f ice, in that, il stated there *e.eseventeen votes which had been surreptitiously polled, and instead ol its being prima facie evidence, that the members claiming their seats had been legally elected, it was precisely the reverse, and amounted, in fact, to a direct negative that the Whig members had been elected. The discussion was suspended by a motion to lay the matter upon the table, and the House proceeded to the election of its officers. D. L. Ward^ law was elected Speaker, without opposition. T. W. Glover, was elected Cierk, also, without opposition. The House then went into an election for Door-keeper, and adjourned at a late hour, to meet ou the next day at 12 o'clock M. In the Sonate, the officers of the last session, were re-elected. The two Houses interchanged messages, that they had organized, and were ready to proceed to business. A message was sent from the Senate, to his Excellency, informing him, that the Senate were ready to receive any communication from him.? His Excellency returned an answer to that body, that he would send a communication to them, on the next day at 12 o'clock. The Senate then adjourned. Hnnsr np Reppp?e\tatives. Tuesday Nov. 24, 1840. The House met, pursuant to adjournment. A considerable part of to-day, was consumed in the election of some of the inferior officers. The Richland election, was again taken up, and on motion of T. W. Davie, referred to the Committee on privileges and elections. The governor's message, was handed in by his Secretary, at 12 o'clock, and has since furnished the principal subject for fireside conversation. I herewith send you a copy of it, for publication. As far as an opinion may now be formed, it has been very well received, and may be set down, as creditable to the officer from whose pen it proceeded. The subjects brought to the attention of the legislature, are such a3are entitled to its gravest conBlfforatiAn nnrt Iirill nn kn PIUVIU.HV.IJ w?U ? III 11U UUUUl UU atlUU Ullj with proper regard to their great importance. Some fault has been found with W those of its passages, which relate to the different parties now existing in the state as discovering a bitterness of feeling, some what incompatible with that degree of refinement which we look for, in all the public acts and expressions ofso high an officer, especially, when directed towards a class of the citizens of the state, who are evidently in the minority, hut - who claim, as well asothors, to be thinking and'acting fgr the pubfid good. In thetwo^nj'nfrhcsof the legislature, there is scarcely a vestige ,of party rancour, and the politics of the day, have not as yet been suffered to detract from, or add I to, the influence of any one of the mem-1 | hers. It is regretted, that whilst such | perfeel harmony prevailed, there should any thing have proceeded from the executive department, which was in the last! degree calculated to disturb it, by holding up any portion of the members, as objects of suspicion, and indulging in language of vituperation, respecting the party which they represented. The most of the business hours, were consumed in presenting and referring, the matters brought before the House, to the proper committees, and at about 3 o'clock, the House adjourned. Wednesday, Nov. 25. The House met at 12 M. The Speaker announced to the House, the appointment of the various committees, a copy of which shall be forwarded to you as sopn as it can be obtained. Various presentments were read, relating to the retailingo.f spirituous liquors, which were on motion of Mr. Rhctt, referred to a ( special committee, consisting of five.? j i Some discussion took ptacc on a mouoii made by Mr. Thompson, an amendment offered to it, by Mr. jv.hett, which proposed that the committee on privileges and elections, should report upon the Richland election by the earliest possible day, so as to allow the successful parties to take their scats before the close of the present session. Messrs. Thompson, Rhett, Davie, Colcock, Bellinger, Henry and Perry participated in the discussion. It was contended, that the effect of the amendment was i<> restrict the committee in the range of its investigations, whilst j the circumstances of the cast; r??Qliircd, i that the case should be fully investigated, J without restriction as to time, or the pro- j per powers to be granted to the committee. The amendment was rejected, and j so the committee were left without par-! ticuiar instructions. It was observed, j hv some of the parties engaged in the j debate, that the committee would use despatch, whether specially instructed to do so, or not, and there were not wanting many, to concur in this opinion. Indeed, to a mere looker-on, it was dillicult to perceive how the members could extract materials from so unimportant a subject, lo make interesting speeches upon; but so it was, there were several made, and the House had to listen to them, and he interested if they could. The fact is, .here is too '"much speaking done, to no consistent with a due attention to the despatch of business. Too much consideration is given, in the commence| mcnt of the session, to very small matters, and time is consumed in debating about them, so that at the close of the session, when those of graver import are brought jo fore the House, they have to be dealt with in too summary a manner. We anticipate, however, great pleasure from the debates of this session, should an occasion arise, which is worthy of the exertions of the many distinguished members of which the legislature is now composed. It is sriid here, that for many years there has not been so much talent in the House. The Governor's message, being the special order of the day, was taken up, and referred, and the House then adjourned. The committee on privileges and elections, commenced their sessions, this evening, and entered upon the examination of the facts, connected with the Richland election. Of this committee Mr. Bellinger, is chairman; and it may not be amiss as his name has been mentioned, to say a word or two respecting ! that gentleman. He is a lawyer, of great abilities and application, and one of the most prominent members of the House. To me, he appears to combine all those qualities, which constitute a great and good man. With that modesty, which is generally inseperable from great merit, ne has the firmness, which no opposition | can overthrow, and the untiring industry, j I which no difficulties can dishearten. To such men as he, the state can with all confidence, commit her most important interests, as he appears to be actuated by no motives, but those which are inspired by an ever present sense of duty. The resolution, under which the commit, tee over which he presides are now acting, imposes upon them a great deal of labour, and they have entered upon the discharge of their duties with much industry. Messrs. Adams, Black, Tradwcll, addressed the committee, as the re presentatives of the Whig party, and the Democratic party were represented, by 1** - i rr*i Messrs. uregg anu Myers. i ne committee advanced no further at their first session, than to agree upon certain points on which to hear the parties?first, as to tho manner in which the illegal votes should be deducted, whether from the aggregate number of votes which the candidates received, or from the number of votes received by the candidates, at the particular poll where the illegal votes were given?secondly, whether any evidence would be received for what candidates illegal votes given, other than that furnished by the return of the managers- ; and thirdly, if so, what kiiulj whether from the voters themselves offering to testify for whom they voted, or from other persons; some of the parties have been heard upon these points, but the committee, as yet, have not made a decision.? : More of this, hereafter. The State Agricultural Society, held ' its exhibition to day. Although it may | be bad manners to say so, I could not j help thinking that compared with the : stock which Pee Pee could furnish, the ! latter would find nothing to be ashamed j of. I am sure I have seen better horses, ? ' cows, and hogs upon our own Pee Dec, than were exhibited .here, without intending any disparagement to the stock, which composed this exhibition. For although they were much better than I have myself, I a in sure some of my neighbours could have carried away a prize, if it had been convenient for them to have entered the lists. A commendable spirit seems to prevail here, and in this ! neighbourhood, to advance the agricultural interests of tlie state, and it is most probable, that something will be done by the legislature, upon that subject. Something has been said about procuring an agricultural survey, at the public expense, in order to develope, the resources of the country, but I have my doubts, whether every planter is not the best jndgc of what his own lands require, in order to improve their productive qualities. There are very few persons, who cannot improve their lands, if they had the means within their reach, and the proper industry?'if they have the means, they are very apt to know it, without having a gentleman ' i employed by the state to teJl them so; ana if tiiev have not the means, or the industry, it is questionable whether a salaried officer can give the planters any assistance in these matters. Hercules told tfue wagoner to "put his oxen shoulder1 to the ituecl," and it is not bad advice to any one, who wishes to do well for himself, in particular or for the agricultural interest, in general. If any th;.ng is intended to be done for agriculture, it would seem, that it might be more benefitted, by a different provision. I send these remarks to you, and wiil observe that I have no objections they should be published, if in your judgment, thby are worthy of it, and may be interesting (o soj^C of your readers. At the d same time, ii is proper to be said, that if such publication deludes other and more interesting ma'!*.r from your columns, the writer would e.vpcct, as a matter of course, that you would nof Impose the task upon yourself. In the in^arf-' time, the writer will continue to make, a few remarks upon the most interesting events which may occur during the session, and will transmit them to you, or not, as you may indicate your pleasure upon the subject. Very respectfully Your obt. servt. PEE DEE.

The Steam Ship Caledonia arrived at Boston on the 19th Nov. and brought London papers of the 4th. The News is decidedly favorable on the great question of war in Europe, especially as M.

The English Government steamer the Cyclops arrived here this morning from Seyde, which place she left on the 21st ult. She has on board the Emir Bechir with fifteen members of his family, and 115 persons of his suite, with whom he is proceeding to England. The Captain of the Cyclops confirms the accounts of the rising throughout nearly the whole mountain. The news from Syria of the general defection from Mehemet Ali, and the very significant abandonment of his cause by the Emir Bechir, removes the casus belli, indicated by the Thiers ministry, to a greater distance. I f the " chances of war" decide the event, as they seem to be doing, in Syria, no case will arise in which England, or the Powers in alliance with her. could be iustified in attacking the power of the Pacha in Egypt, where alone the late or present rulers of France have declared an interest in his cause. London Nov. 4.?The news from Syria which arrived yesterday by the tele graphic despatch of the 31st of October from Toulon is undoubtedly very important, and, though it shows that the reports previously received were somewhat premature, it fully confirms the rumor of the success of the Anglo-Turkish forces, the extension of the insurrection throughout the country of Mount Lebanou, and the probable defeat ?f Ibrahim whenever he ! shall venture to meet the allied troops.? The despatch from Malta of the 27th tilt., giving news direct from Seyde of the 21st, confirms the intelligence from Alexandria i of the 7th; and the presence of the Emir ! Bcchir on board the Cyclops is likewise i mentioned. It is, however, not easy to j comprehend for what reason or in what capacity the Emir is said to be on his way to England?whether as a hostage, a prisoner, or a negotiator. Electrical Telegraph.?Professor Wheatstone, the inventor of the electrical telegraph which is now at work on the Great Western railway, is at present in Brussels, where he has been trying the new improvements he has introduced in j his apparatus. Mr. Whcatscne has suc: cecded in so simplifying his apparatus that he lifts reduced the number of wires employed to two. The great objection which had been previously made to the telegraphs was the difficulty of repairing the wires in case any should be broken or damaged, as it was supposed it would not be possible to tell where the fracture was. This difficulty has now been obviated by means of a small carriage moved along the lino of the telegraph. The place where the defect lies is indicated by a magnetic needle, ; which changes its position the instant it i arrives at the part where the connexion is { broken. Professor Wheatstone conceives 1 that it is possible to communicate with his apparatus between Dover and Calais. He has been repoatinghis experiments at the Brussels' Observatory in the presence of many scientific men.?Inventors' Advocate. Prince Louis Napoleon arrived at the citadel of Ham on the 7th inst. The j garrison had in consequence been, increased to 400 men. resignation of the french ministry. This event took place on the 22d of October, not unexpectedly except as to time; it was looked for, but not before the meeting of the Chambers. The immediate cause is said to neve been a difference of opinion between (ht> King and M. Thiers, in relation to the spcCCu from the throne. Correspondence ol ilm Journal of Commerce.

The crop of south Carolina is but little short of last year?in Georgia we admit 1-2 short of last year's receipts?M?-bile | will have 400,000 Bales?and New Orleans 900,000 Bales; and we estimate the entire crop between 3,800 a 2,000 Bales. The weight of the bales is heavier in several States than last year, by 15 to 20 pounds per bale, on account of the hrgh price of bagging at the time when plant, ers ordered their supplies, and if we admit an average increase of 20 pounds per bale, theirs would appear an ab.mrbtion on the crop of apparently 90,000 hales. Oar receipts arc already 109, bales; stock 94,000, the average quality not as gooJ as last year at this time, being only about middling, the better qualities and the lowest are rather scarce.

New York, November 24, 1840. The Great Western with Bristol dates of the 7th, and with later news from all ! parts of the Old World, except the East : Indies, arrived this morning, bringing highly interesting and most important news. The allied Powers have captured I Sidon, defeated IbrahimPaciia, laid siege to St. Jean d'Acrc, and were carrying all before them. The Syrians were all in arms against Ibrahim, and the Turks were hurrying on more forces from Constantinople. This makes all French aid hopeless. France, wc sec, is too late to do any good now to the Paciia of Egypt, even if she were disposed. We have, in addition to this, a calm, conciliatory, and dignified speech from the King of the French, in which he manifests his determination to preserve peace, and at the same time to preserve order in Paris and in France. The news, I may add, is so favorable to peace, that it Seems now only possible to break it i by a revolution in France, of which, not, withstanding France is in a highly excited ! state, there seems little probability.? | Locis Philippe met with no accident on j the opening of the Chambers, Paris was i generally quiet.
