Cotton in New .York is worth twenty-one ceuts, here it only brings seventeen; that is four cents a pound from here to New York for freight, stealage, etc., you know.. Now., again, in. New York, brown-sheetings and' shirtings are twelve and-ahnlf; here twenty-two and and a Half, which is ten cents d.fference on the Knu- if t.!iko> two and a half yards to weigh a pound, which is twenty-five cents per pound for manufacturing and bringing beck, added to the four cents makes twei t, nine cents per pound which you Soutl.e n farmers pay to have your cotton made into clbth, which only lacks five cents of being double first cost of material. What do you tliink of that? Now, our factory will give you twenty cents for your cottou, in cash, and.sell you sheetings and shirtings at fifteen cents, which gives us seventeen and a half cents per pound for freight and manufacturing, and is a direct gain to you of eleven and a half cents on raw material, besides keeping all that money at home to build up the country and.double up the value of the property several times over. Now you didn't know how rjuick it could be figured out before, and how much you Southern farmers are losing every year by sending J your cotton. North-and buying it back again, did you ? " " Well, Captain. I didn't Enow exactly how it was, for I can't figure as fast as you can, but I kuew all the time it was some / liqw- that way, and it's mighty bad, but we famers can't help ourselves ; at least 1 can't. tj i;l-? w??ll t,o hiivfi the moucv uud.

This cotton was sold to Smith & Brown licrc before tlte seed was in the ground, and that twenty-two a half domestics has been bought, and.this cotton is going to pay for it and the rest. Yon see I had' to get somebody to back me in a crop, and I will have do again. Now, Captain, as you have Veen so good as to figure for me, though I can't talk like you, may he I can tell you something you didn't think about, and give you a hint that may be useful to both of us. ^Voall heard you fellows had startedafactory. and we would like to sell you our cotton, but wc cant. Most of our cotton is bound for debt.

Don't waste your time in figures and arguments. You arc talking to slaves. Free their hands first, then they will help themselves. Don't try to buy cotton for cash. Take your cash and buy Northern goods and Western provisions, and advauce them to the farmer and he will gladly let you have all the cotton you want..

From tlio Jackson, Teun.j Way and Tribune of a late date wo gather the following , interesting item of the resentment and courage of the honey bee: ' Captain Brown of this city recently robbed three hives, and Dr. West, a neighbor, robbed four. The bees, thus deprived of tlic fruits of their labor, became furious; and "uniting, making an army of seven hives, they invaded the premises of Mr. Horace Bledsoe, and make a fierce attack on five 1 - ' of his hives. Bledsoe's bees wore takon hv surprise, and although outnumbered fought ' for their homes with desperation. The battle lasted several hours, and four hives of Bledsoe were Htterally destroyed. me invaders were finally repulsed, after being almost annihilated. The ground for yards around was black with the dead. Mr. Bledsoe, although a serious loser, buried the dead warriors with the honors of war. Few of the invaders survived the battle, and from out of five of the defending hives four were destroyed, It was the bloodiest bee battle on record, and deserves to be handed down to posterity. Mr. James D. Tatum, of Mississippi, has discovered that martins will destroy the millers who deposit the eggs which produce tho destructive boll worm. lie tried it, and found not one worm in 100 acres of cotton.

Ayer's Sarsaparilla, fOB PUBIIYEVO IHE BLOOD. The reputation this excellent medicine enjoys, is derived from its cores, A many of which arc truly Ar*. marvellous. Inveterate Ar cases of Scroftilous dls/r f.'ii ca80> where ^ system V5I ./Mi seemed saturated with. corruption, have beta. J0H5 purified and cured by it. Scrofulous affections and disorders,which were aggravated by the scroftK * >'* fou8 contamination until ' they were painfully afflicting, have been radically cured in such great numbers in almost every section of the country, tlint the publio scarcely need, to be informed of Its virtues or uses. Scrofulous poison Is one of the most destructive enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt tenant of the organism undermines the constitution, and iuvitcs the attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases, without exciting a suspicion of it* presence.- Again, it seems to breed infection, throughout the body, and then, on some favornbl? occasion, rapidly develop iuto one or other of its hideous forms, cither on the surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tubercles may bo suddenly " '""-o A-honvt or rumors formed (ICpOSJICU III UIO liuien-v. ? in the liver, or it shows its uresouco by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcerations on some part of the body. Ifence the' occasional use of ? bottleof this Sarsaparilla is advisable, even when no active symptoms of disease appear. Persons afflicted with the following complaints generally find immediate relief, ana, at length, cure, by tho use of this WAB8A1'ABILLA: St. Anthony'* Fire, Hose or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Bheum, Scald JTead, Blngtcorm, Sore Eye*, Sore Ears, and other eruptions or visible forms of Scrofulous disease. Also in the more concealed forms, as Dyspepsia, Dropsy, Heart Disease, Fits, Epilepsy, Feuralgia, and. the various Ulcerous affections of the muscular and nervous systems. Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases are cured by it. though a long time is required for subduing these obstinate maladies by any medicine. But long-continued use of this medicine will cure tho complaint. Leueorrhcea or Whites, Uterine Ulcerations, and Female Diseases, aro commonly soon relieved and ultimately cured by its purifying and invigorating effect. Minute directions lor each case are fonnd In our Almanac, supplied gratis. Bheumatisns and Oout, when caused by accumulations of extraneous matters in the blood, yield quickly to it, as alse Liver Complaints, Torpidity, Congestion or Inflammation of the liver, and Jaundice, when arising, as they often do, from tho rankling poisons in the blood. This SAB8A? F Alt ILL A is a great restorer for the strength and vigor of the system. Those who are Languid and Listless, Despondent, Sleepless, and troubled with Ferrous Apprehensions or Fears, or any of the affections symptomatic of Weakness, will flud immediate relief and convincing evidence or its restorative power upon trial. r> n v p a Jt K D BY Dr. JT.
