 "Gentlemen-I have yours of Fist inst. before me, and thank you for the information therein con tanned upon the subject of great staple. If your estimates are correct which for the Atlantic 625 NJ and for Florida l30 M bales, the crop cannot ex- ceed, if indeed il reaches l755 M. bales. Your re- mark that my estimate for New Orleans IS loo small will be found great mistake, for low It was when then wrote Positiue proof IS now before me that compels me to ,educe it still ower heN cannot possibly exceed 675 M. or Mobile 325 M. These two amounts added to your esllmate make l155 NJ, but my i'm pressiun Is it will not reach that figure. The receipts a this place last season were l36 M bales; 42 M bales have been received and shipped this, and IS D store and the planters say the cotou IS near ly all in, notwithstanding the hauling here has been from 50 to 60 miles further than was ever known before. have seen many wagons from the Tom bigbee river with cotton which has heretofore gone to Mobile, and many shipping points on the Tenncs See river have been exhausted by hauling 10 this place; in fact the entire crop m this secon of cOn try is gathered and most oft brought to market - Whilst the cotton was in the fields the planters, judging from it's appearance, concluded they would make nearly an average crop but from the fall being SO dry the catton pulled Tn the bolls and they were deceived. After 1t was picked the mistake was dis covered The deficiency at this place IS esmated at 40 Nj. bales This last summer IS the first for 20 years that have spent in the south, during which tune and since the appearance of the worm have been all over the upper part of Red river and below Alexandria on the "Washita." lying in the south ern part of Arkansas, down the Arkansas river through Mississippi and assure you that in all the cotton region lying ot 32 deg north latitude, the crop wll not be thlrd; nOrlh In some places it may reach one half or even two thirds, but mol more. North Alabama and Middle Tennessee be- leve will make three lourIhs-from this you can form an opinion of what thls section of county to yield ''croakers 10 the contrary, notwithstanding Ordinary cotton IS worth here to-day Sac mid lo good mid. 9ta9ic., md. fair to fair 94al0c.-marke firmn
