The evils complained of by the cotton plan tfta are that the prices of their staple produc- tionare irregular, and too ofien not reinonrr.i. live. The first named evil has at times been disaslroosly felt by others than gowers-oftupiiti cottons and if a rcmeoy enn lis devised, tlie good wiM not te coufinrd to the Cotton plan- riicse Aurtiittiont sornetimes cause a jlif- ference of from lliirty lo sixty millions of dol- laes in ba aide uf to rot- nroductive not only of lots to the planter., but which sometimes tells with disastrous effect upon foreign exchange, mid banking insiitu. lions. These fluctuations urn always in ihe ii, verse ratio of the production. Titus, while a crop of only 2.200,001) bales of cotton will yield to the producers one hundred and ten millions of dollars, a erop of 2.800,000 bales will pay only sixty millions; and the bounty of Heaven,' in the gift of good seasons, proves more destructive to ill" pl utter than aeasons of drought, flood, storms and frosts. This loss of fifty millions of dollr.rs falls with itx full weight upon the planter; bill it ia also fell My ail engaged in orj -dependent upon com merce; and they are equally interested in the d iscovery of a remedy; yet ii is chiefly by sr.cti that cotton ptantsrs' conventions are jeer ed at and ridiculed. True it is, that no good reunited fr jm the action of ihe convention field in Macon, in 1830, and lhal as little can be expected from that lately held in the tame city; bill it does rioi follow """that ail efficient remedy cannot be found; t any rate, the im portence of the object will justify renewed eflort. cr The dogma "that prices must and will be regulated by Ihe relations of supply and de mand," i Jy many deemed conclusive, refu tation of all hope ofsucccsi Byl.U).eftujEi. lion lo be s ilied In, ''whether llie supply Can not be isjregulaied so to secure regular snd re munerating prices! found. If it e in, the remedy is If the cotton crop of the Untied States be longed lo on mail, remedy would be obvious. Naming his price, be would sell only an much as Is required for consumption, and leave his residue under his eolioli shed, to supply defi- ciuooy iu, enp ef next y ear; anil if I he surplus was largo he would plant less next I year. Such a etnrse would be oHicient for action by (he cotton planters generally is the dilficuliy of procuring concert of aeli-ui. The dilheuliy s great, but 1 tliiuk Not insuperable Ueside the loss atlamlant upon a larf e crop, ! the planter is often subjected to loss upon a small out, because of his ignorance of the ex tent of the crop ol the country. Cotton is ilia agricultural staple of some eight or ten Slan t, covering va-t extent of country. Seasons re often favorable in some districts, and un favorable in others. Dealer in cotton take meaaurea to inform themselves, with sufficient accuracy, of ihe extent ol the crop, and are prepared to g tn market with a knowledge of iu value. It Is their Interest, too, to exag gerate its extent, and tint it annually done by puoucaliou 01 wuai purport 10 be extracts of letter written te eouon states, but really fab ricated for that purpose. The planter, igno rant of its real amount, end influenced by such statements, disposes of hit crop at low prices before the falsehood is discovered. For low prices, a remedy would he found in an agreement te plant less eotton; but that would not prevent irregularity in price, because good and bad seasons would stilt cause ir regular productive t and although remune- rauve, price would : be irregular. bad season might also , an reduce the supply. it to 111 row out 01 employment a largeportton of capital, and of operulivet now engaged in manufacture. , Such a state of thinri would bs deplorable, and in tit end injurious to the grower. mm interest, end those of the manufacturer, are subserved by regular and reasonable pricel. " " .--.. The firal thin la be done bv the eoni-en. iioa, should be the adoption of a plan fur as certaining the extent of etch: year crop. Thit is essential 10 all judicious end efficient action. - I propose to effect it by the tgency ; f planters asaocialions, to be organized in every eouniy in ihe ieotton Slates. By dis tricting the counlir-s, snd distributing the labor among the members, the crop Af each county 1 may be ascertained by the. middle of January every year. The county eorietiee would im mediately thereafter report the amount af the crop to e eoaimiitee, or aome alfieer, residing at the eeat of the Stale Government, ' who should report the aggregate Crop of the State to a eentral eommitiee, to be appointed by tlie Cotton l'laiilcrs' eoorenlioo; upon which oeii tral eommilte should also devolve the labor of obtaining all attainable Information1 respect, ing the probable demand by manufacturer at hniae and abroad - Ui supplie which may b ex peeted from ether eountnes and gener ally, all the information In it bower, eanneev ftl with Ih production and consumption of i - Tiie information roftrred to, and the report frorai the ejiata eomatittee. aiy ba in posses sion of the eemrsl eommilte by tht 1st A pril in each year;' 'inc should be published; Jt4JSRll,cn ht prpport,wn p Umbi retpeetrre ctope 1 aliould Is aoiit, and sjfhaXswtaleest.

Bnt inasmuch a eoamderable portion af me erop t annually tout belore tl.a report el to sell more than two-thirds of their rpc. live crops belore Ihe receipt of said report and not to tl anv for any price Irsa than a. greed upon.' Ami further, "not to sell morj of the reserved one-tHiril, than shall be adis ad by the central eomniittisj.n For tUnatra-' tion of my meaning: Suppose the erop 000 bales, the aula of two-thirds would a mount to 1,800,000 leaving 800,000 bales tin haiid. If advised that the consumption of American cotton would be only 2,"00,000 bales, each plainer should then tell only four out or every time bales, whirli had been re served, tnd reisiit the remaining five bales under Ins cotton shed, to await future demand, to supply deficienoie Hi future crops. Experience has shown thst crop of 2 700,000 bides, thrown upon the market, will reduce the price of cotton to about five cents; whereas," feopetf only 3.300,000 bale will raise Tt to thirteen 'rente, if more. These are extreme prices; the first not remunerative to the planter, the last tending ton much to stint ulate production elsewhere. The interests of all parlies, producer, manufacturers and con turners, will be best served by moderate and regular prices tav about ten cents per pound. At that price, tio thirds of his crop will put more money into the planter e pocket than would tlm whole crop cold at six cent. 1 hare said that the. duliciilly of obtsiuing concert of action among the pUnlers, so wide ly srparated from each other, is great ; but my uonfUt'iicc in its practicability is based their obvwus interest, and iheif fo4 common tense.

The only objection ever made to ibis plan is "that the planters will not act in goud lailh, but wilt secretly sell more than their portion of their crops." Now. without claiming for cotton planters a higher character for honor and integrity, 1 may a.iy that lliey posses as much of those qualities as any othrr of our population. And hlthnmrh some may, and will act basely, the number will be small, and iheir unl'silhlessiiess will but little affect the re sult. , I may say the same of another small class found in every community .Solomons, in their o-vn conceit, mak il a point of honor 1 never 10 think, or act like Ihctr neighbors; and who will, prrhaps, refuse lo enter into the agreement, ilul if llie plansug!estcd be tried, breaches of faith will be fewer and fewer every year, and where a tu-nss of houor will not restrain, filar of exposure and shame wiin Without some general concert of action, no plan can succeed ; and that now -proposed presents as few abjections W any other.

Spinning reifires litils skill in the opera tives ; and yarns sell for duuldn-lhe price of raw material. The facility of obtaining yarn from neighboring factories would enable 011 r planter! to clothe their families and servants heller and cheaper than nuw. There are, upon every plantation, servants who, at times, would be inellicieiit in the field, perfectly a ble to work the loom. This, however, is the least of the henflts which would result from the system of manufacturing. Miliiont of pounds of cotiou yarn are annually exported from Oreal Hriiain to the enntinenl of Eu rope, and toother portions of the world; and the business of spinning it said to be more proliable than that of weaving. Onr South ern factories would obtain the raw material at least twenty per cent cheaper than those of Cnglaud ; and Southern yarn aud cloth would monopolize both the foreign and the home market. Ijet each county commence with t factory of one thousand Spindles : and let the' planter, agree to invest, annually, ten- per cent, of their crop in the extension of such factories; and jn ,t few yeart they would manufacture the whole crop of the country, tad export it in tlie shape of yarn tod eloth. Such a course would double the value of our exports, and would add lo the prosperity of the country more than the gold mines of Cal ifomla, twice told.
