MAY. neem ‘SATURDAY 3 MORNING,
Gorrosi—The staple article of the Rebs
e] States. .Cottun has to be planted betore
the first of April. to obtain a crop. The
planting seaton is, therefore, passed, and so
has been plunted this year in the
‘Bouth, “probably fot much more than will
suffice for the wants of the rebels thesnselves.
"Phe uncertainty of getting wotton to market,
“the inroads of Federal troops likely to occur,
‘the danger from guerrilla bands, and the re~
quests of the State Legislatures that the people devote themselves more particularly to
raising articles of food, all tend to limit the
planting of cotton ip the insurrectionary
States. The supply of cotton for some time
to come is. theréfore, going to be limited; for”
*gdpt Brazil, Peru and Central. Amerien,
must of neressity be quite small, and with
the exception of that coming from Peru, of
a poor quality. “Phus, our people must count
‘upon paying bigh prices for cotton goods for
years to come. Peace, if declared to-mortow, would throw enough of the raw material into the market to lessen the price con-.
siderably, but it will require two or three
years at beat to: bring down the prices of
cdtton fabrics to their old standard.
The hest optton Jands in the world so far
as actual trial has developed them, are in the
land of Dixie. But the boundless regions lying on the Amazon and ite tributaries, if the
statements of Fletcher and others are to he
relied an, are capable of producing the best
varieties of cotton, and in quantities. to sup»
some years to come, the labor
to produce a great supply. The civilized
world {a unitedin putting down the slave
trade, without which the Amazon valley is
‘Tot likely to be rapidly supplied with » pepulation. :
. The war with rebellion is going to be
‘waged till the the Uni.n of the States.is ro

‘adn before pence is declared’ No matter
what the result of the contest may be, one
thing is sure, slavery will cease in all the
Pouricau-—The Union State Convention.
. ‘assembles at Sacramento on the 17th of June,
about @ mopth jheneé, for the parpose of
nominating an entité Btate ticket to be sup=
ported, by the people at the September election, Thus fat there-has been little stir
among the political elements, and it is hard
6 tell what the aspiring ones are about. —A few candidates have been named for sever~
al offices, bit we cannot see that avy efforts
have yet been expended i in favor of any one .
ofthem. Tt is time we have heard of « com.
binations. effected; and federal sppointees
starting out on électioneering tours; bit aotb= .
ing has yet disturbed the pleasant serenity of
this region. It isto be hoped that the delegates who go to Sacramento on the 17th of
the coming month,.will-take their seats in
the convention unapledged, and in a frame of
mind conducive'to sound deliberation on. the
‘gtate of the country, and on the capacities of
men to fill the various responsible positions.
Politicians ought not to “put up”-a ticket as
fs usnally tfie custom. The pedple phould:
be heard:as much as possible id our conven
tions.
When we hear of combinations to eleot
this or that mao, it is the part ef prudence to
examine aud see whether the report is well
founded, and if it should be fotind true, thepeople ougtit to take matters in their own
hands and leave tricksters out in the cold to.
learn better manners. A few men have
generally had their own way and ruled the
State, making the body of the people subservient to their purposes. . The same complaint
was made among the exclaimors of 0! tempo
ra; O! mofts in ancient Rome,and perhaps
it will be heard for alleoming time. We¢an
only say what would be desirable, but if the
depravity of haman nature militates with
exact justice we can only give our views and
let things take care of themselves.
fr The parson returns to hie vomit again.
He is incorrigible. We have preached to
him of bis Wicked ways, but he seems to be
hopelessly given over to fiardness of heart
and blindness of mind. Oh! the evil of humun depravity !
_ We said we had ninety-four paying adver‘tisements exclusive of “legals,” while the
Journal had sixty-two dead-heads and all.—
We said we have twenty-eight town advertisers which the Journal had not, while the
Jéufnal has bué ten that we have not. The
parson mierepresenta by saying we said “the

Califotnia should liave offered aome induces
metits, through her late late Legislature, to
enbourage the growth of fibrilid on the
watm and rich: bottom lands of out ritets.
United. State is o.well adapted to the growth
of cotton as California: The only serious
obstacle is the high price of labor, But
hands can be hid for twenty-five and thirty
dollars « month, of say, three times the
rate in the cotton States. If cotton could
be profitably grown at six'and ten cents a
pound in the South, certainly it ought to be
profitably ptodticed here, now, when cotton
rates at from fifly to sixty cents a pound.
We wish the State Legislatdre had offered
