THE CROP OF 1865 Amen LARGER THAN WAS GENE-
RALLY SUPPOSED.—(From the New York Mercantile
Journal.)—The quantities of cotton already brought for-
ward for shipment at the Southern seaboard, prove very
conclusively that either the crop of 1865 was much
larger than had been generally supposed, cr that the
accumulations hidden away in the recesses of the
South unpenetrated by Northern troops were vastly
greater than formerly reported. The total accessible,
already partly received, and partly yet to be delivered,
will run up to nearly two million bales for 1865 ; and not-
withstanding all rumoured drawbacks the pressnt year
holds out very cheering prospects. Some persons are
sanguine that a crop of 3,500,000 bales, if not more, will be
attained for 1866.
NEARLY FOUR MILLION BALES TO BE RAISED THIS YEAR.
—A correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial who has
been travelling in the South, makes the following estimate
of the cotton crop for the present year:—
The crop of 1860 was 5,314,166 bales of ginned
cotton. In attempting an estimate of the crop of 1866
I shall set it down at two-thirds of that of 1860, in all
the States except Texas, Alabama, and Mississippi. In
Texas and Alabanci, I believe, the crop will be a full one,
for they were the two great centres cf the Confederacy,
into which were crowded thousands of negroes, many of
whom still remain, while they were very little disturbed
by our armies. In Texas there are 100,000 negroes more
than in 1860, and in Alabama probably 50,000. Missis-
sippi remained comparatively quiet also, but lost many
negroes. Her crop will not exceed three-fourths. In
Virginia it will be about one-half. Hero, then, is the
guess by States:—

Alabama

Arkansas

Florida
Goorgia
Louisiana

Mississippi
North Carolina
South Carolina
