APPEARAIsICE AND CULTURE OP COTTON..
Prom thC lag of a series of well written "Letter
from the South," published originally in the BayStaret
Democrat, we cnttbe followingrAgrapbs, which will
g ive to those of our readers who do nut understand the ,
subject, a pretty good idea of the appearance and eel•
tore of a plant to which wo are largely indebted for
many of the comforts and conveniences of life.
A field of cotton with six hundred or a thousand
acres under one fence, in full bloom, is the most mugs
nificent sight in nEure. The stalks themselves. being
from four to six feet high, with an abundance of foliage
of the brightest - green, and on each of the numerous
branches a yellow, white, crimson, or chocolate color
ed flower, the landscape presents a vast, waving see
of variegated blossoms. The blossoms, chameleon
like, change theit colors. Upon first opening,the..,
flower is yellow, or of a yellowish white. When the
night air breathes upon it, the tender petals change to
crimson, and on the third day it assumes a dirk red or
chocolate color, and falls to the ground—so that s with
the earlier or later growth of each plant, the whole
field is severest with different colored blossoms for
nearly two months. The broad leaves and globular
formed pods, blended with the flowers, add a richness
and benuty to the whole. It is to the extraordinary
beauty of this plant, thut A.metica is indebted to its
introduction and cultivation, as a great staple product
of the South, thus early. Although the name of "the
individual who first introduced the Cotton plant here
is unknown,'it is certain that it first occupied a place
in the parterre of the American garden, where it re
mained for it long time devoted to no other use than
fur ornament. As early us 1736 n was a subject of
horticulture in Maryland, and that alone as would
seem, for many years after. Its great usefulneis 'lreaS•
finally made known, and it was cultivated to 111 .scoull
extent throughout Maryland and the Carolinks; and
the first exports to a foreign market were from one of
the latter States, in sheet the year 1754.
The annual labor on a cotton plantation commences
in February. The ground is then put into order for
receiving the seed. The cotton plant, snore than most
serial grains, tends to exhaust the soil soon, for its
roots a re large and run deep into the earth; on this ae
count, as well as others, the gruund is raised into ridg
es four n five feet apart, on which is deposited the
seed. Thus by changing the position of the 'ridges
every crop is furnished with fresh soil. If the land
be low or wet, trenches are dug cross-wise olthe ridg
es or drill rows, to drain the land. Those trenches
may bet one hundred feet or more' part, according to
the state of the sail, or its location.
Planting gsencrolly, commences about the 10th of
March, and continues fur nearly a month. This labor
is performed by moles and females, three of whom go
togethet • One goes before and opens a trench on the
centre of the ridge about three inches deep; another
follows and drops the seed; while the third covers it
with earth. If the seed is planted early, the trench i
usually dug an inch or more deeper, to guard against
the frost. The plant being a feeble onP, and precari
ous in its vegetation, an abundance of seed is deposited,
more than could grow to advantage should all spring
up, namely, one bushel or more to the acre.
The next process is that of weeding. which cams ,
mences as soon as the plants are of sufficient height,
and is continued as often as necessary until the fifteenth
or twentieth of July. About the first of July the cot
ton begins to blossom, and the field is clothed st lilt
flowers until the middle of August. During this time
the more forward of the pls HA perfect their cotton,
for one month is generally all the tines to rip
en, from the any of blosserning.
When the pods begin to open, which is about the
firstor August; hands are employed in picking and
currying in. as fast as the pods open. By the first of
September the blossoms have all fallen, and from that
time till into October, the field presents a eight near
ly as be tutiful, though nut variegated in color, as when
in full bloom.- The pods have opened atatlexpanded,
and the cotton has burst from them and hangs six in
ches or more over the bowls upon the stalk. The leaves
are becom crisp and withircd. and the slim, polished
stem of the Vent is obscured by theoverhanging exu
berance of the cotton; thus a broad fleec.o of allow,
whiteness is spread out before you, almost as far is
the eye can cruets The cotton is picked, carried in. -
in baskets, and spread upon boards and dried. It is
then run through a whipper, weighed, then passed
.hrough a jenny which seperates the cotton from the
seed and fits it for market, and ia baled and shipped.

THE SIIILLELAH.
In the good old times of Irish kings, princes sine

which came the proverb, "nick the stick 'said the
broacher." Thus, when one mince was %graded., fp=

a challenge, be pulled out his skene, and, cuttingefew.
&ice tricks in his walking cane, sent it to his tmetn,y..
and, if the latter broke it upon the bearer's bead, ff.
was understood that the challenge wits accepted. If
a gentleman became enarnouttd of a far tady, he
straightway sent her his stick st it h a link bored throtigh
I the heart of it. and if she returned it with a ring fast=
1 tined to one end, he became the happiest of meat and

man presumed to pay her particular attention after
that, the lady was at full liberty to break his head for

CAPTAIN JESSE BEAN.
The last number of the "North Arkansas," publish
ed at Batesville, contains en obituary notice of Captain
Jesso Bean, an old citizen of independence manly,
Arkansas. From it we learn that he fought under:
General Jackson at New Orleans, and his gallantry on
that occasion I commended itself so strongly to the gen
eral that he never forgot him. He wasappoirrad by hula -
to the post of Captain of Mounted Range's in 1832.
Upon receiving . this appointment he raised a company'
in Independent e, and marched with it to Fort Gibson.
His was one of the companies that escorted the COM
