IL certainly would be dealing ungenerously with

 the common sense of our planting population, to call on them to decide whether il would be wiser 10 pro-

 duce by labor, articles of first necessity, the

 mains of which, after supplying our owr wants,

 could be sold at fair remuneration, or, expending

 our labor and capital on the production oi an ari.

 still by what strange inialuaton they prevented

 from seeing the wretched odds ID the game against

 them, remains not easily accounted for.

 In all contemplated change of cultivation, it is

 certainly but common sense to ascertain the articles

 or which we expend our labor, that when produced

 will promise fair to repay for toil, and also

 bear exportaton of the redundancy that we may be able to produce after our own wants are supplied.

 My last paper endeavored to point out as coming

 within this rue the article of vegetable oil for table use, &C. as substitute for that prodgIous quantity annually import from France, Italy, Sc. and of which article we ought actually to be the exporters. And here, for all, beg leave put the planter in mind, that every foot you go South from the line of Canada to the Gulf sf Mexico ihe quality of oils in every respect, will be found superior that pro- duced any considerable distance North of any given section of the Union. It is climate that determines the character Of all vegetable oils. with suitable soil and universally you find the soil with the climate, suilng the production of any vegetable matter. This is of Heavens kind and wise arrangements. And here, feel justified in calling the correct and pa triotic feeling of every man as regards country, mg ing imposing argument for going into the pro duciion of this ilcle of oils, with olhers where we can to advantage. l here allude to the garing and notorious fact ol the selfish and iberal policy prac- tised by European nations, in excluding fron their shores every article of ours that they can possibly raise themselves, To permit come in petition with what they do raise, although to the dis advantage ol their own people, and the fact equally stubborn and notorious, thai with almost every artI. cle we buy from them, we get just fresh sample of their adr0i,ness at adulteration. If with these two facts staring in the face. we feel easy and dis position Is produced to wipe of our dependence on iAen, where can, do not hesitate 10 say, what ever view we may be pleased take of the matter, thew as they really entitled to do, will view

 as fairly entitled to the charge of pusilannous, and that all loud talk about independence is perfect bandinage. l. however, here will remark. that Eng hand for the first has discovered more liberal policy and consented so grease her people and her machine " with ard lard oil, pork, &c.

 But we are not confined 10 the bene plant for the production of fine oil. There remains little lsubt that, that beautiful plant the Snnfower, IS per iecily home in our climate, as that II can be cu,- vated by us to great pecuniary advantage for the same purpose Of lhe great value of this plant for the production of a fine oil, ilat now remains no matter of speculation. Some years ago, t IS known 10 the writer of this article. that this plant ex cultivated m the neghborhood of York, in Pennsyyania, &c for the production of oil and with uar t there fniiy ascertained that

 e oil was superior in fancy paintings and druggists pse and on full trial also found he equal, if mt superior to the almond and olive o Of shops for n table use. In culinary preparations II was fonnl superior To any oil known there. The exquisite |

 have singular butter richness, giving to fish and some meats when prepared with it a taste and flavor hai would gratify the gout of tue yerest gourmand It keeps well, readily purified, and transparent. It was found in the section oi country before mem

 toned, that fron forty 10 fifty bushels of seed per ,cre was ihe average production of good land, hut ,n land well prepared, much more. The product rom the bnshel of seed was a fraction over gal. on of pure oil and il sold readily for one dol- ar and fifty cents per gallon. The refuse, after he oil is expressed. is great and valuable food for ,ae and hogs. Judiciously used, il fully pays for he cultivation of the pl Dt. Thus oil was found be gond loubt excellent in its action on 'he stomach, ig ce'ng we'll nth all persons who used it whether n its raw or prepared state. with meats, &c. The writer Of ihis article made small attempt to deter une the value of this pIant and the mode of cuiva- ion in this climate, induced by what he had seen of oih in the North He planted plat of good soi in
