J Co(Von Is very low. In most of the 8ooibcrn States it is ranging in price Iroin twelve to fourteen cents per pound ; wbwsas, but a fow-weeka ago it was go IngStfat fifteen to eighteen cenU. tTlw cause of this decline is attributed to vur iou cucumrft-mccd, not necessary here to enumerate. The fact is known to u that cotton is now selling at a figure that would prove rninous to the farming interests sboul J i t riot change for the better. Really, with our present system of labor, it can not be profitably produced for the price offered. Tlii being the case, is it safe foif the farmers to hold on to their cotton 1 8ojie say know, sell. We think it a mis take. It is always safe to hold an article that is selling for less than it can be pro duwd for. We therefore conclude that eoKfrn mast necessarily go np, and that soap- We venture the prediction that it will bo doraanding .eighteen cents per pound before the middle of January, next. Iffo, It will certainly pay to hold it. But should it nut advance, it is not likely to depreciate in value, It is much more certain in our opinion, to advance than to decline. W do not urge farmers to hold their cotton, for it is presumed they all know their own business best, but we be hove they will damage their own interets by so doing. If we had cotton we would not fell at the present low prices. THE TRIUMPH IN OHIO 9m fiiccet8 of the Democrats of Ohio seems Kit .SpV WW O kUb HI.

This letter was written in response to Jjte strictures of the Democrat on tit actio of the Legislature, and while it is iaod spirit, it seems to be rather an apW6yforthesho t com na of that body ; aiHjlhfltd, for the' previous legislatnre that hadf the largest Trfwjority for good ever ttjoyed by any party in this State yet wtb ibis overahtlming majority it did no atoa for the good of the State or people than the present, and the present has uot done anr ihincr.

It is no use to deny the fact, if the banner of the Conservative-Democratic Party it again soon te triumph in North Carolina, the people must repudiate the action of botfi the last and present Legislature in many particular : They must repudiate many of its members for the part they took in the work of disorganisation j they must repudiate thefr sins of omission rid Commission, and their name is legion CoL Allen makes a few references to some musty old laws that ante date. the Constitution, and about which some law yefs are in doubt a? to their binding force under the new order of things, anJ-with a graud flourish be and those who cheer fr him would make us believe that the action of-the -Legislature is vindicated; although but three objections have been touched upon, it is astoirisuing now easily some people are convinced. Here is a member of the L"gis let tire who under takes to de fend its action against the grave charge 6f incompetency and of uselessness generally, satisfying hiinst-lf with beJatheriug over three points, and settling no objection, be cause be has told us nothing that was not known before. Everybody knew there was a Vagrant Act, but everybody has seen its impracticability. Everybody knew that there are many ignorant Mag istrates; but the most ignorant people must and do see the necessity of some new powers being granted them. There are many cases that could be disposed or and should not go to the superior courts if the law with respect to "Justices of the Peace" were changed ; and all parties would be benefited and much cost and trouble to the people saved thereby. Mr. Allen don.t think so, of course not. He was defending a body of which he4s a member. He would be weak, indeed, if Ibe could not make a plausible argumeut in vindication of its action. let, when we sift what he has said, we find it to be the meret twaddle simple .verbosity. He will excuse us for saying that his defense is frivolous, incomplete. He has not touched upou the points the people, are most anxious about. He must pick his flint and try it again. His lecture to the Democratic press of the State is altogether gratuitous. It may be all right and proper coining from a member of the Legislature whose acts ceriaiV raj tubers of the press, speaking' for andi:i bchilf)f the peppj.i, have felt it to be. their duty to criiU-i-. Bat Uie people look to the proas for information, and for an honest and truthful statement of facts, and we Ii- dc tfie day will uever dawn iu North Carolina u)itu.Mtiy mem bee of the praas gang will go fr forget himself as to truckle to any political fac tion or Legislative body in disregard of the high duties which are imposed upon him. Nobody, however, will be frighten-, ed from the performance of his duly by Col. Allen, s dictation, so we will let that pass for the present. Now, while Lhf i Col. was engaged is writing a defense of the Legislature, ( we say defense, for some of our contempora ries in referring to his letter have pro noonced it an ablo and well-timed .vindi cation of the action of the Legislature, &c), why did he not do the work effect ually ? Why did he not tell us the reason that we have no public schools in Norfc Carolina tp-day worth the name ? Why is it the debt question has not been ar ranged ? the Legislature had as much power to arrange it before the worthless amendments' to the Constitution were adopted as it has now. We might go on and enumerate hundreds of things affect ing the immediate interests of the people that were left undone, or indifferently passed over. But we will not now drawl up a bill of indictment against the bodies Col. Allen seems so anxious to defeud. It is enough to know that both the last and present Legislatures hae Jailed in nearly every essential particular, besides completely demoralizing, if not disrupting the Conservative party. At any rate, a thorough reorganisation has been reader. ed absolutely necessary by the' action of the menber8 of the Legislature last win- -t uu a wu are w nave anotner. such session,,tbe hope of reorganizing the Con servative party may as well be abandoned. But the people just now are more feon- terued about "practical" legislation than any thing, else.- And no Legislature ever possessed a finer opportunity to. distin guish its members to do something to win the hearts and praise of the peirple-i- shado hope new will lnsire. and the hearts of the people again take courage and next summer tb factions that have conspirf icrura Vrtl, Harolina in the tf of r calamity ill he nut to flieht. the spirit of Democ- racv wiinagajn.uover uer uo .1 - t Unit anil avnesrerooi prespurity ahd peaee triU dawn.

The true basis of independence in a man is the ability aud will to help himself The same is equally true of a congregated mass of men and women who constitute a nation. 'A man may hive great physical strength and an axe may belying at bis feet, yet he witi never cut down the tree unlesa he picks up bis axe ana gofs to work.- A country may have all the resoUr ces within its bounds necessary to make a wealthy and influential nation, yet,' if Its people uo not improve tneir auvatiTages, tbey will be forever poor. The same fs equally the case if jail the energies of a people are directed in one channel tb the neglect of another equally as necessary tb the susteuance of lite No people w ho are strictly and e'utirely agriculturists can evrr be ' fufly indpehdcnV neither "cad any strtctlv maiutfactuiiuff community. The Western States can vaise corn so eneanlv that they can burn it instead of coal at SS per ton, but tbey cannot cover their bod ies' with corn ars, and brtfice they afe de pendent on New England for cassimeres for dailv use, and for blankets for the nigdit. At the same time, New England is equally dependent on the W&atfor grain' to fill the mouths of her weavers and spin- a i ' . aw m a. ners. And to a eteat extent tsns must continue. It is a striking ihsiance of the great natural law of compensation. '1 here arc large areas of the West which c m uev.er he anything but agricultural on them are neither water powers or ciienp fuel. And the rock hills of New England1 afford perpetual springs, which falling over rapid declines ive Vast water pow ers, but from whose banks the agrtcntm l ist only grinds nut hi crops literally by the sweat of his brow.

' "V But thu South can be Independent of New England and might be of Western grain were it the part of good policy, and at the same, time she in iv also supply the inci easing wants of the West in that line of manufactures for which her agriculture supplies the. same material. North and .South Caiolimt, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas and Texas are particularly favored fh soil and climate eo that b'y a full settlement of their vacant land and interchange of commodities be tween their mountains and lowlands they may, ii disposed, be severally independent of tbe outside world.

A little farilier dowu are grain 'soils which will last better than tbe prairie of the West because nature is constantly renew ing them by the wash from the 'hills and mountains'. Still farther doru these streams come in the cotton lands Again, tbe mountains and even the lower piedmont lands affords the Very best pasture or sheep. Hen.
