I " - : When we come to consider the f vast proportions of the trade ; when we consider that the fine cnewing L tobacco for the merchantable world,' is raised in about twenty counties bordering upon the State line, bei tween Virginia and North Carolina; and when we remember that our lines have! been cast in this very part, the most favored of any country yet explored on the habits able globe, for the cultivation of fine grades of the weed.our minds ought to be filled with the importance of the subject which it has been made our duty and pleasure to elucidate! The magnitude of the question may be better illustrated by stating that the tobacco crop ot last year, in North Carolina, has been estima ted to exceed fifty millions of pounds,whicb,atan average price of ten dollars per hundred, gives us a staple which annually turns! loose upon our commerce the amount jot five millions of dollars. Brought into the country by this industry and once set in motion, it goes intd the actual wealth of the State, and helps to build up our material pros perity. It goes directly to the planter, to be by hiin turned over to the merchant, the doctor, the lawyer, the editor, &c, and thus lubricates the machinery of trade gives an impetus to every diversity of industry, and places North Caro lina on the high road to material independence. I Y The tobacco plant, requiring, as Jit does, eighteen months of unre I mitting labor and attention to raise He rani and nrenare it for market, land our limits being restricted, it would be eminently improper for us to enter elaborately into the details and mi nutiae, connected with its cultiva tion and management. If we can say a word or let fall a syllable that will advance the particular branch compared to that of grain, or 5 even COttOl, enables', the i crownr rvf rhn weedito spend, much more fcr ma nure a large amount of which' will still fentain in the soil ready to be assinuatea-as food' for the yeart crop, which will not be co aider a proper ' system of tion,j and that wilt make the suo ceedbg crop much more valuable and frofitable than if thd land 'were not tins prepared.

Car alina. The Convention, which assembled tt Grees.boro, N. C., on the lUth August, instate, and formed the nucleus of "The North Carolina To bacco Association,'7 requested the under signed'to prepare aud publish an address to all those raising, deal ing in, or manufacturing tobacco in our State ; and we have the honor to submit the following, which has been hastily thrown together, and without that due preparation which the imirortance of the subject de mands. We deem it proper to say in the ontset, that there is, no question which should be tliscussea wiin a deeper and more vital interest, than the one entrusted to your commit tee, and that within the limit of this naner we can hardly expect to be able to enter the field ; but we sin cerely trust that our efforts may awaken a desire on the part of the great mass of our citizens who are interested on this subject, and that some abler pens, or more fertile iinacinations, in a larger and more extended essay, may yet be induced to undertake the task of writing at length ou the subject. Our oldest histories intorm us that Tobacco was found growing in digenous upon our soil as far back as the landing of the expedition sent out by Sir Walter Raleigh, upon lioanoke Island in 1584. It was, perhaps, by the camp fires first lighted on Carolina's Jbastern snore, that the English pioneers of Amer- ... .. j i i ican civilization sac anu smoiteu the calamet of peace, from the pre pared Kinniconick, in the true In dian style. . It was here, perhaps, that the first native born .fcaglish man contracted the habit of smoking the newlydiscovered American'nar cotic, which has, at this day,become almost universal. Much as can be said against what is called by some a pernicious habit, the smoker smokes on, or the chew er rolls his quid from one side of his mouth to the other, sanctions and even joiis the abuse of the filthy habit. Its use is no longer confined to race or clime. The Caucasian, the Indian, the Maylay, the Mongo lian, the African, all vie with each other in the consumption of the com modity, and it is this vast demand which has given impulse to its growth andculture, and which,' in a consid erable degree,has dictated policy to the fiscal world. The fact that the discovery of to bacco was almost coeval with the dis covery of Columbus, and that it was found to be an indigenous growth nnon tha soil of North Carolina, is the best proof that the climate and soil of this State are naturally a daoted to its crrowth and culture, but if this element wexelacking.the of our industry and wealth : pro mote the development of the latent ( resources of our impoverished State; infuse a spirit of energy and enter prise Into uur ruiiuno, yiuufrB ui ZtianniucLuaoio, convince them all that their respective interests are identical ; dispel the gloom and despondency which seems to have settled like a pall over the actions of many of our best men convince them that we inhabit the garden spot of our great and grand Repub lic, and thus restrain them from seeking homes in the inhospitable climes of the North West, or the n6 less disagreeable breath of burning sirocco which sweeps the broad prairies of the South West ; that ia a proper development of cur God given resources, the prosperity and happiness of onr people is sure tb follow ; it we can succeed i riveti ing upon the minds of thoe whb read these lines, the importaice of the subject, the benefits of co-peif ation, the advantage of a unibrm rule of action, we shall be nrre than compensated, and look to fie future for the bright reward whi is so clearly indicated by thebot of commercial promise which eveb now spans our horizon. I Experience has proven that td- acco is certainly the main depend ence ot Lower Xirginia and. North ern and NorijL3Ve8tern North Car olina, and as indicated heretofore, he fact that our sou ana climate are peculiarly adapted to the pro duction and the higher grades, than can be grown elsewhere in the coup try, should , constrain every raiser to" do the best in his power to pip mote this great interest, because pt is our inherent source of wealth,arid becauRO we must look in j that direc tion mainly for the benefits which must perforce follow its proper de velopment. ; j We have our mines, but their rinh minerals lie too far below the surface to be brought to light ju$t yet. We have our cotton fields, whose bosoms will soon be whiten ing in the Autumnal sun,and whose products will carry joy and comfott to the millions of earth's children: j but it is an admitted fact, tht where our soil and climate are dapted to its full development,there is no plant under the sun- which, with proper care, skill and manage ment, can be made to produce such a revenue as tobacco. It has been long contended that Tobacco raising greatly injured the land, exhausting the elements of plant food therein deposited, and rendering it unfit for the subsequent cultivation of the cereals and the masses. The worn out lands which I surround Danville, and the untiliea fields scattered tbrougnot ine xo bacco region, have been pointed to, f. , TYanv vpai-s as .an evidence of Lthis fact, and the apparent condi tion of these old neias woum xui to attest this fact, but by the aid of agriraluiralchemistry and other applications of science,' the falla cious theory has been fully disprov ed, and by their light it has been clearly demonstrated that the rais ing of tobacco, when judiciously al ternated, by a proper system of ro f af inn. will be an advantage to the land, and largely benefit the culti valor. f. . i ! ! In proof bf this we argue that they great difference in tne price ox weu handled and nicely cured Tobacco, ence, ua it is lor ns to wme our indellile history upon the scroll of timt and receive therefor the blessins or the malidictions of fu ture gyrations. ImpiSsed with these thoughts, we woiu remind the reader that there ! a work for him to do. a buildin'to bo erected, the corner stone o which was laid at Greens boro oi the 19th day of August, wuen w pioneers of the North Car jpniAw oasuviu.iuu llOlsied the bttaer of co-operation, and pro claims tne organization a fixed fact. I : 1 Hittrto, those who were inter ested i raising, dealing in, or man- ufactfmg tobacco, without regard to uny of action or concert of pur pose, Wgrega ted, isolated, each man lor nipeu, ne uas waged an une qual Airfare with opposing forces. ienqorin uniteu, on a common platfoa, and enrolled under the flag fia common cause thev will forcewtory from the very jaws "of defeal Hal in hand the planter and the manticturer propose to trudge up the hlorcommerce, firmly impress ed till the grain of one is the ma tual ft vantage of the other, and thati) failure of the planter is the deathblow to the hopes of the man nfactjer, and vice versa. This plat lorm i association is as broad as that jcommon interest and should inclu every North Carolinian, es pecia every one who resides in the I dmont region, who has the oodlf the trade or business at leart We are therefore authorized tccoi ally invite into the member shp the Association every plan ter chant, dealer in, or man a factx; of Tobacco throughout the Statind ask his co-operation in betubf our combined effort to ele vate p profession and advance the in ted of the fraternity. Verould invite into our ranks a rti larger amount of capital, Dot l the cultivation oi ana man ufaqng of tobacco,but especially woih e ask for an increased capi tal manufacture, sufficient at leatf work every leaf grown upon Carolina soil. It is said by and manufactured tobacco, depen dent, of course, upon the grade, of tobacco raised and the skill, with which it is (cured, handled and manufactured. The planter and the merchant have received much injustice at the hands of irresponsi i i , , . . uto anu uisuonesc parties who go into the trade with the intention of avoiding the tax, and who in many instances have been successful, Throwing their tax nnpaid tobacco upon the market, the legitimate mauuiaciurer uuu wercnanc nave been compelled to compete with them on the market. The price of the manufactured ar ticle is thus depressed, but the manufacturer and the merchant who has purchased must sell or ouit me business. He accordingly sells lor what he can get, in many in stances at a sacrifice, depending upon luture gains and with his eyes oiened to make his next profit by buying his leaf or manufactured ar ticle at a lower price.

It is known only to a few who are posted on the subject that a New York, Baltimore or even a Lynchburg manufacturer caa ship tobacco to Charleston, Savannah, or even to JNew Orleans, cheaper than a man who lives anywhere in North Carolina. This discrimination is unjust and unfair, putting the North Carolina manufacturer greatly at a i disad vantage. it is believed tha: by co-opera tion that the Association can regu late this matter so as to at least put North Carolinians on an equal foot ing withthose parties. We must commend to the favor able consideration of every member of the Association, and particularly to every raiser of tobacco, the Wes tern North Carolina Tobacco Leaf and Planters1 Journal, the accredit ed organ of Xhe Association, ; pub lished under the direction ot a committee of the body, and devot ed mainly to the tobacco interest. It is the purpose of the editors to make it a journal worthy i of the confidence of the people, and a wel come visitor to every fireside in the land. It will give the regular quo tations from the New York, Rich mond and Danville markets, and will be published at the remarkably low rates of $1 per annum. ; As the Association will necessa- rilvr iYini finni uvruinoa t I ia . wao peclfully, suggested that the fees uor membership be at least one dol lar per annum in order that the treasurer may be able to meet the torrent expenses, and if it meet the approval1 ot the Association, that five thousand copies of this address be published in pamphlet form, and sent to every known dealer in the South.'
