A small whig VICTORY.


At an election held in the city Of Mobile
on the IN inst. for Mayor, COuncilmen, Al
dermen, Marsha, CLERK & Assessor, the wings
were most gOriOusly triumphant. having
elected their entire Ticket by majority of
FOUR HUNDRED. This result is certainly very
gratifying, and the wings of Mobile deserve
great credit for their noble efforts; they have
made clean sweep-every thing wing.
The Mobile Advertiser, speaking of the
result, says:
"li affords US inexpressible qualification TO
announce that the Municipal Election yes
terday, resulted in the most complete and
overwhelming wing triumph ever achieved
in this city. A CLEAN swEEP'-EVERY
THING WHIG!--and by majOrities too, that
astonish even the wings themselves.
Locofocoism is used up-dead and buried.
The Locofocos struggled desperately and
died hard. We presume they will never
make another effort in Mobile. The CLAY
wings cannot be beaten here. The Clay
banner was calamity flung to the breeze in
this contest, and most nobly did our friends
rally under it-bravely did they fight, and
most splendid is their triumph! They have
proved themselves invineible, and shown
10 the world that though others may falter
they are true to the WING cause-unconquer
ed and unconquerable!"

In my last letter proposed to show in the
present, that the making of all our coarse
provisions, negro clothing, blankets. cotton
oagglng, sack cloth, &c. &C., out of cotton
OF our own raising, would very little -dimin-
lsh the proceeds of the cotton crop.
This may seem TO be strange propesition.
but little examination will, I think. show
that 1t IS not so unreasonable as MANY roigbt
suppose. The basis of the proposition is this:
that less quantity of cotton picked clean.
and well handled, grown from choice seed
VIII sell for as much money as greater.
picked and handled more hurriedlV. Saw
'hat ABOUT seven bales will sell for as much
money as ten, both receiving the Same 4
mount ~, Of labor during the picking season.
ms Is not, think, very unfair promo
sltlon, When we consider the present and
perspective character of the cotton market
FOR years past the market has been oIut,ad
with cotton below the middle samples: and
al TINS very time two classes of cotton. re-
moved but little in quality, are separated IF

It must be remarked, moreover. that ne
husband we can if we will-compete with
the world in making fine cotton. il Rritish
India they can make cotton, and do. and
and will probably increase the product-bnt
they cannot make fine cotton. Much cotton
land IN the U. States will not grow a fine
article, while we can make much better
article than we do, by some pains-taking ia
selecting seed, cultivaung, handling, &c.
l 90 not mean that we can make alI tine
cotton, for all know we cannot5 but only
suppose that the crop as heretofore generally
managed, be reduced something like three
bales ~ ten, and that the diminution be in
the lower samples. This is by no means in-
convenient to do. Then If seven bales are
worth az much as ten, why make the threeg
Why not use the labor required to make them

PENNsYLvANIA.--Alread the wings Of
Pennsylvania are rallying their forces for the
Presidential contest in 1914. Large meet
ings have been held in different counties Of
the State nominating Henry Clay for the
Presidency, and appointing delegates to the
4th of March Convention which is to meet
at Harrisburg, and instructing them to &C
for Mr.. Clay. We have no fears of the Key
Stone State, but are convinced that she will
rally in defence of her injured rights and
give HENRY CLAY larger majority than she
did Gen. Harrison in 1910.
