 When I took my last walk along the wharves in Charleston, and saw them pi- led up with mountains of cotton, and all your stores, ships, steam and canal boats, crammed with, and grooming under the weight of cotton; l returned to the Plan ter's Hotel, where found the four daily papers, as we'll as the conversation of the boarders, teeming with cotton cottOn!! cotton!!

And Hamburg, (as negro said) was wor- scr, according to its size for there it puz- zled me to tell which was the largest the piles of cotton or the houses. now left Augusta for Milledgeville. l overlook hordes of cotton planters from North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, with large gangs of negroes, bound to AL abama, Mississippi and Louisania, "where tho eOtteR land is not worn out" Be- sides these I overlook a number Of empty cotton wagons returning home, ,aDd great many loaded with cotton, going to Augusta. Two of these wagons meeting directly opposite me, the following dialogue took place between the drivers: "What's cOt- ion in Augusta l' says tho one with load.
