THE 3UNERS’ AND FARMERS’ JOURNAL. From the Natioixf Intelligcncrr. TO THE CITIZENS OF S. CAROLINA. NO, XV. fVifiirfs and Ffllotr-CilUeu*: It is confidently asserted by the friends nf iiulltAoation, tiiat intense distress pre vails in your State; tlint it is the necessary and obvious rc.«ult of the taritT, which m- ^stricts your lraic, and limits the sale of your grand staple by llie heavy duties lev ied on the imported artirles received in re turns; that the duties on those iin|»ort8, to the amount of about 30 per cent, are paid hy the producers; and that, in consequcnce fhercol', the cotton, tobacco, anil rice plan ters, contribtite to the support of govern ment, at least !?12,01H),IH)0 per annum. 'I'hat distress exists in the State, particu larly on the sea-board, nmy be admitted— but I am credibly informed that it is i;reatly pxififf^rated, and that the upper country is ui a pros|»ero«s situation. If the distress ami suffering were as great as is suppo!wd—if they could be traced to the tanff—if there was no hope of relief, from the government—and if the alterna tive were, a continuance of that state of siidering, or a secession from the Union, it might perhaps be conceded that self-preser- vatioii, the first law of nature, would war- r.uit you in attempting to relieve yourselves fn>m so ujiequal a burden. It might then l>e ju-itifiable to “ calculate the value of the iin on,” and see whether those disadvanta ges did not far outweigh, so ftir as you are concerned, all the benefits it confers. Rut if 1 Can prove satistactorily, even to Judge Cooper and Mr. M’Dutfie, that what ever may be your distress, it has no neces sary coimex'ion with the tariffs of or 1^2'^, (the taritl'of 1816 is allowed, on all hands, to have l>een a tarifl’almost altogeth er for revenue)—if I can iiicontrovertibly trace the origin of the distre.ss, to a source ontirely ditierent and perfectly adequate to account lor it—we may hope, that all good citizens, even those who have been the most ardent partizatis of nullification, will exert themselves to dispel the mists of delusion under w hich yourcitizi-ns have labored, and, aa far as in their power lies, tranquillize the public mind, and allay a ferment, which en dangers the peace and happiness of the country, not merely in our day, but in the days of our children and grandchildren. To give a fuH view of' the subject, it is necessary to take a retrospect of some years previous to the late war, and subsequently to its close; at which latter period, the seeds of distress were sown which have since ger minated so luxuriantly. The average price of cotton in 1S09, ’10 and ’11, was only 15 cents.* In lbl2, ’13 and '14, it averaged only about 11 cents.* After the war it roee extravagantly— In 1M15 the avcrAge price was 20* cent*. 1M6 “ iei7 •. . 26Jt “ 1^18 321 “ Tempted by these extravagant prices, the cultivation was greatly extended—negroes and lands were purchased at prices unheard of formerly. The purchases were, in some instances, made wholly, in others, principal ly, on credit, piiyable by instalments, with ! ii;tertst, fromycar toyear, in full confidence,! on both sides, that this stnte of prosperity J would corttinue, and that the payments could | be easily made. These high prices, moroover, produced, as is always the case, in .iimilar circumstan ces, an extravagant style of living, far be yond that to which the citizens had been iiccustom^d. In the midst of this dazzling scenc of prosperity, an awful hurricane arose, which blasted and withered the flattering praspects, and produced scenes of distress and wretch- tdne-t, n't often p.iralleled. Cotton fell from cents in 1*18, to ‘22 in 1S19,*— and to IG in 1^20.* To those who had purchast'^ on credit, as the mast part had d. >iH‘, and who still owed several installments, this was certain ruin. With the price of cotton, the price of lands and negroes fell, and sotnew hat in the same proportion. And 90 great was the reduction, that in numer- ou- cases, the lands and negroes would not »;ll for enough to j>ay the instalments still cJue; so that the whole amount paid was >acrificed. In f«oine instance? patrimonial estates were sold to pay the deficiency.f It may be asked, to what cause were these ninou? reductions owing? Was there then no tariff, on which to charge the ruin ?—to i.^»lify nullification, with nil its horrors?— or to lead to any “ calculation of the value of the Union''” The an^wpr is easily given.—The fall in ISIS, arose from the large imp*jrtations of Kast India cotton, in that and the prpceding year—amounting to no less than .31.'j,300 bales; whereas, in 1S14, ’15 and ’]«, the importation had b^en hut bales, or an average of bales j)er annum. It is true, its infenor quality coa-idcriihly lim ited the uk; of it—hut still, ^nou;'h was used, to produ e, as we have seen, a reduction of ahout .30 [ler cent. 'I'he desolation was completed hy the great increase in 1820 of tlie ex[)ortation of t tton froni this country, which in 1‘'19 had b'-eimfi''. 3 (,.508,270lb«.ofupland>j; where- a^, in 1"^J, it ro»e to J 10,291,137 ll*., be- iu;^ an increase of about 40 |>»*r cent.

The following extracts from the Journals of the House of Coiiimons of 1787, and the proceedings of the State Convention of 1788, we lay b«‘forc our readers, to show the grounds on which the peo|»lo of Ualeigh claim that the si-at of government shall be perniaiieiitly located among them. If this bo their onlv claim, we fear it will avail but little when its merits shall have been .sub jected to the test ofexuiiiinatioii aiid (khate. The act of the Coiivciitiou does not, and could not go beyond the limits which gov- _ cm all deliberative hollies. It merely says it into discredit by charging Smthern dis- (|,^t jjpat of govcninient shall be and re tress to tarifl's. It would be an outrage on the common sense of the nation. P. S. The increased culture of cotton in this country was in a great degree caused by the destruction of luanufactures, by the iplS, half a million of dollars, more than 173,000,000 lbs. nearly double the quanti ty, in 1823—that the latter quantity pro duced a million and a half of dollars less than 142,000,000 lbs. in 1824—that 144,- 000,000 lbs. in 1822 produced nearly as much as 204,w0,000 in 1820—and, finally, that in 1827 we increiiaed only about 17 per cent.! It is, I trust, impossible to examine the preceding tables, and the deductions froni them, with the attention to which the mag- nitude of the subject is entitled, without a conviction that all the embarrassments, dis tress and sutiering so loudly complained of, to the South, have arisen from one single farming—converted customers into rivals, and depressing farming—and imiir lled the farmers in Virginia and Maryland, and the emigrants, into Alabama and other south western States, to enter largely into the cul ture of cottoji.

AVir HummfrrWc—A little more than a year ago, the Kail-Uoad Company purcltus* ed a tract of Pine land, of about 1500 acres, situated on u high sandy ridge, between Cooper and Ashley Kivers, and about 21 miles from town, at 37j cents [)er acre.— This purchase was made for thc timber which tvas u(M>n it. The land being adjoin ing asi'ttlement e^taMished by the planters of the neighborhood for their Summer resi- dem e, it bring but a.t '.our and a half to two hours ride on the Kail-Kixid from town, and a healthy, airy and pleasant Bituatioo, the Kuil-Koud (Company resolved to law tiir in town lots, tlire« hundred seres of their land, and offer a portion of them for sale at public auction, with a view of inducing set tlements.
