the manufacture of cotton-seed oil. ne states that, through the agency of a nevv machine which he describes, one bushel of seed will make half a gallon cf oil, ani that thisoil sells in Philadelphia and Iiew Vork at one dollar per gallon, when linseed oil i3 selling tor ninety cents, the reason for this difference of price being: that cotton seed oil can be. applied to ma ny more uses than linseed. He describes it as admirable for painting, for greasing machinery, and. tor cleansing with rotten stone all sort? of metals. He proceeds It remains to show the immense advantage which is in store for this country, from thnat present unimproved resource. The rotton crop of Georgia, for instance, is 250,000 bales, which, at the usual pnee obtained, is equal to sis millions of dollars.

Albany Argus Such is the language of the organ of the Albany Begency, in relation to a question of public policy which occupies, at this moment, ns much of the attention of the People of the United States as any other whatever. Chiming in with its natural ally (the Government Agent to the State Banks) tbe Albany Argus settles tfu question of te chartering the Bank of the United States, by a negative presumptive, and, in an argument in favor of tho imme diate removal of tbe public depo'ites, fa vers its leaders with the above ungrucioulenruks. Upon the minor question, which th Argus labors o earnestly , we have nothing to soy.
