The Southern States the Only Reliable Cotton Region in the World—The Cotton Experiment in India and its Failure. From a lenethr article In the New York Utt aid on tho Future Growth and Supply of Cot-- ton" tho great ' topic oi tneasy we make too following extracts: . AMERICAN SOUTHERN STATES THE ONLY RELIABLE COTTON REGION IN THE WORLD. We possess the only, extentlre and reliable cotton region In tho world. All thought of rivalry or Hopes o( its supplies oeing superseded by other regions are totally absurd, and are only entertained by vislopary mes.er by those who are Ignorant of Its cultivation. . We matt understand 'tbatAibere are about fifty varieties of the gosypium, or cotton plant, and that out ot the whole number there aro on ly about four cultivated for commercial purpo ses, eaoh of which is an annual, and requires replanting every year. The perennial cotton trees of the tropics aro wholly useless, so far as the quantity or quality is concerned; their pods, or bolls, are small and comparatively few to the tree, while the fiber of the cotton Is coarse, harsh and brittle. We must comprehend the fact that tho annual plants cultivated In the United States aro only adapted to a climate where rain and sunshine alternate, with suffi cient heat to mature the plants and that they will oot stand the extremes of drought and rain common to all Intertropical latitudes, when the only plan which can bo employed in rearlog them consists in irrigation a method too arti ficial and expensive ever to be employed on a large scale; bence, when we bear that India, Africa, Algeria, Egypt or Central America Is to compete with the Uulted States, we know that the thing is simply impossible. ' In tho United States the northern limits of the cotton culture are bounded by 34 to 36 de grees north latitude, omitting Intervening mountainous elevations and strips of sterile soil; and by the shores of the Atlantlo Ocean and the Culf of Mexico (the latter being In lat itude 28 to 30 degrees) on the south. This oot ton region extends around ths Gulf of Mexico through Texas to the mouth of the Rio Grande on the Bouth-west, . and stretches In a north easterly and south-westerly direction from about the longitude of 76 degrees 30 minutes to 98 degrees west of Greenwich. The main cause of the fertility of the coun try thus described 1b attributable to the great baain of water known as the Gulf of Mexico and the Gulf Stream, whlob passes out paral lel with the shores of the Southern Cotton States. The waterof tho Mexican Gulf. heated by the rajs of a tropical sun, causes aa Im mense evaporation, whieh, la expanding or drifting north, or toward the elevated lands east ana west ot toe Mississippi, is condensed by cold air, and produces frequent showers du ring the warm months of spring and summer, and whioh are the life of the cotton plants. A similar process takes place along the Southern Atlantlo States. The evaporation from the Gulf Stream is condensed by the cooler air of the Alleganiea, Thus we have an immense re gion of cotton lands ores whioh nature, has established the most wonderful system of irri gation known in the world, in combination with the proper amount of heat and richness of son. w nen we consider tnat these neat nhu. teal advantage have been united. w4tb .enter prise, skill and slave institutions, managed by Amenoan intellect, unaer tree institutions all tending to their development, oromoted bv th uwy jueu moor sui.aoie w me culture oi oot ton, we shall experience no difflcnltv in comnm. , a , , . . . . . . . . hending why the United States enjoy a monopo ly in Its production. c . THE COTTON EXPERIMENT IN INDIA AND ITS FAILURE. j ORB. '....... In 1840 the Hon. East India Company sent an agent to tho United States, with a cart blanch as to expenses. He engaged the servi ces of ten experieuced American cotton growers, taken from the beat cotton districts of the conn. try. Several were from Mississinn i. two from Louisiana, three from Alabama, and two or tbree from Georgia. Ther were en raced at good salaries, and bound to remain In India five yean eaoh. They were supplied with large quantities of .the best American seed, cotton- gins, plow, noes, cotton-presses, and every pos sible appliance calculated to Insure success.--They passed through England, visited Manches ter, and were made acquainted with the view and wants of th spinners. They were sent overland to India, and distributed in the best cotton dlstrlota to be - found In that vast region. They were supplied with all th laborers they wanted, at three oenta per day each, they sub. listing on rioe as food. ' one ot tne planters. Mr. Terrv. stated that In Mississippi one hand could cultivate five acres, make five bales of cotton and his own provisions. To do the same woik in India, It required three weakly Asiatics to the acre. An African at the South, being well fed on pork, beef and corn bread, with vegetables, and well clothed, could do about as muoh real labor aa half a dozen puny Hindoos. Mr. Terry was sent op to the Uundlecund , District, near the1 oas eoi tne Himalaya mountains. When he Aral reached this locality he olanted on a thou sand sores In cotton, near the olose of the raioy season, which came op, grew well, bloomed and boiled favorably) but just at this stage In it growtn uie orouiu set in, t tie beavensjseem ed turned to bras, and not a drop of rain fell in ninety days. His plants withered, the leaves dried np, the blossom fell off, and the result was that he only gathered 69 pounds of ootton to tho acre, against abont 1,000 to 1.200 nonnda .in Mississippi., i, , ; . , ., . Value of an Explanation. A certain king, it is said, sent to another king, saying, "Send me a blue pig with a black tail, or else ",, Th other, in nigh dudgeon at the presumed Insult, replied, "I have not got ono, ana H 1 naa " uu wtuob weiebtv cans they went to was for maiiy years. After a satiety or glories and misei.u. tbey finally be thought them that, as their armite and resour ces were exhausted and their kingdoms mutually laid waste, It might be well enough to consult about the preliminaries of peace: but before tbia could be concluded, a diplomatic explana tion was first needed of ths Insulting language which had formed ths ground of th quarrel "What oould yon mean," asked the second king of the first, "by saying, -'send me a blue pig with a black tall, or ele V " "Whv." said the other, "I meant a blue pig with a black tail, or els some other color. But," retorted he. "what could 'yon mean by saying ! have not got one, ana it i naa v " wny, of course, if l baa i snonid nave sent it;" au explanation which was entirely satisfactory, and peso was conciuaea soooraipgiy.

Enmity of presidents and Vice Presidents for Forty Years. Speaking of Vice Presidents, it k a ourleus fact that lor forty years past th Vice President has either been at enmity with the President, or has been lost sight of In th distribution of patronage, except when he became Chief Mag istrate by th death of the first ofuoer of the government. Mr. Calhoun and General Jack son had an early and a aevere difference. Vice President Richard M. Johnson never wielded much power under Mr. Van Buren's adminis tration. Had Harrison survived, there can be no doubt that John Tyler would have been ut terly ignored, and the same may be said of Mr. Fillmore, who mounted over tho coffin of Gen eral Tailor into tho Presidential ehair. . In 1844, when Polk and Dallas were elected, the friends of the latter in Pennsylvania exulted in the prospect of controlling th rmtronaee ot the Federal Government, because their justly dis tinguished favorite occupied so olose a relation to the President; but Mr. Buohanan, a shrewd, cautious, schemlnc politician, located at Lan- euter, checkmated them, and, befor th 4th of March, 1845, had not only put himself into the Department of State, but had nut his rival. Mr. Dallas, under a shadow. From this day to the expiration of the term of President Polk, Mr. Dallas had no influence whatever. The early death of the venerable William R. King doubt less saved him from a similar mortification un der the administration of President Pierce. ' In 1856, when the favorite son of Pennsylva nia was chosen to the high position he now oc cupied. In comoanv with tbevouns Kentuckian. John C. Breckinridge, he had a striking exem puncation or the raot tbat It Is almost impossi ble for the President and tho Vic President to agree. From the moment that James Buch -anan entered the White House, his besetting Infirm ity seemed to bej suspicion of all his old menus, ana eaiousy ot tne nanasome Vice President. Ia vain did the friends of the latter appeal for patronage. Tbey were coldly and haughtily excluded. The framers of the Consti tution Intended to make the Vice President a counsellor of the President. Ia fact, hia con nection with the Senate, and the vote he receives at the election, ought to put him before the Cabinet; but the reverso has been the case, with very rare exceptions. Now, the Vice President generally assumes the relation to the President tnat nas been oooupied in England, for man years, by the heir apparent to the reigning raou- arcuy. One characteristic exception Is furnished to this rule, and that is tho manner In which Old Hickory trusted and confided in Vice President Martin Van Buren. Jackson's friendships were so tenacious, that, whether he stood by a poli tician in petticoats or in pantaloons, he rarely gave up one to whom he was attached. Vn Bu ren was not only his intimate and confidential friend, but his daily counsellor; and when the man of iron nerve mounted the second time to the highest office in the world, he caused it to be understood that his successor should bo tha Vic President, and the fiat was carried out. It re mains to be sees whether Mr. Lrfiooln will Imi tate Jackson, bv adhering to his Vice President. or whether he will fl) into tho tut in which most or his predecessors have followed. Mr. Hamlin la a safe, experienced, and thoughtful man, an old Democrat, who, during hia connection with the Democratic party, exercised very gteat pow er In New England, and was cherished as among niu. cacctire ana trusted oi onr leaaara. He Is still inspired with many of the ideas of me oiu vemccracy, ana will, doubtless, do all In bis power to liberalise th inoomiDc Admlai. (ration. - Opening of the British Parliament.

Over these there aro red Ma; and blue ribbons, and amber ribbons; a4 there 'are stars, and crosses, and medals, and ail manner of decorations. There are some who have none ot these bau blesMr. Dallas the American Minister; the Secretary, Mr. Dallas, jr., and the Assistant Secretary, Mr. Moran. Th most picturesque in th group is the Persian Ambassador his black flowing beard, his toll hat and Eastern robe, make him a prominent member of the carp diplomatique. ' At last even the Commons are silenced, and the Lord Chancellor has advanced to the throne, and, kneeling, hands the royal speech to th Queen. This her Majesty, ia a clear and dis tinct voice, reads to the assembled Lords and Commons. : The most perfect stillness prevails; th foreign Ministers listen anxiously for the Easssgea that relate to their profession, and Mr. alias and Mr. Moran show intense Interest in th passages relating to the threatened disrup tion of the Union ; and when her Majesty ex pressed "her heartfelt wish tbat their differ ences may be susceptible of a satlefactorv ad justment," the venerable Minister of the United states gave someihlogllikea, "Burleigh's nod," which seemed to say be hoped so, too, but evi dently bad some misgivings on the subject. Diptheria an Old Visitor. Th throat disease now known aa Dlntheria is an old diseas with a new name.- The word la from a Greek word signifying skin, and should bo. spelled diphtheria, and not, aa it usually hvdiptberia. This disease visited this country as long ago as 173T, snd raged with great violence. i we find, says the Portland Transcript, in Parson Smith's Journal, fre quent notioes of its ravages In 'this region Under date of October 31, 1737; he says a fast was oeiu on account oi to is tnroat distemper. It was epidemio, and commencing at Kingston, N. H., spread through New Hampshire and Massachusetts, and was twd veara in Machine- th Hudson River.- In Tfew Hampshire not less than one thousand persons fell victims to this malignant distemper, and in Boston four thousand persona bad the disease, and one hun dred and fourteen died.- In May, 1737. Parson Smith mentions that seventy-five had died of It In this town. Under date of October 13, 1737. h savsi. "The distemner Is still had at Scarborough. Not ono has lived that has had ft of late.'.' It was (he most fatal soourgs that evot visited New England, and rapidly hurried Its subjects to th grave; the throat was swelled, became covered with ash oolored s necks, treat debility and prostration ensued, with putrfao- iiou.. unaer to improrea metooas or treat ment of Ah present day, it ia less fatal, , , ' , Irish .Linen; Goods.
