will come forward Immediately, who can de-
post in Vicksburg, or its immediate vicinity
on the river, 1000 bales Of cotton tObe ship
ped TO Havre. We select HaVre becsuse We
suppose-and, indeed we are assured-that
a reasonable advance can be had if necessa-
nv upon cotton shipped for that port; and
because the finer coltons, our first Pickings,
are most suitable for that market. We sug-
gest that such planters who see that direct
shipment is to their interest, and who accede
to these suggestions, shall report to your
committee the arrival Of their cotton in this.
place, and the committee can at any moment
have a vessel TO receive it. We have no
doubt that cotton shipped direct 10 Havre,
will pay profit Of one cent in the pound
over the shipments to New Orleans.

PICKING CoTToN WITH RUsH.-Four hands
belonging to Isaac r. Bass, Esq. of Madison
county, on a voluntary race, under the i'm
mediate eye of Mr.. Williams 1.-THE superin-
tendent,l to see that no advantages should
be taken, each emptying his own sack,
picked the following weights, viz: SOB, 496,
485, 400, making an average Of 476
pounds-aggregate, 1904 pounds. If any
of the gals and boys of Kinds can beat this,
we should like TO hear from them.
The total amount of cotton picked by the
81 hands on the plantation of Major VIM
Phillips, commencing their labor at daylight
and ceasing between shutdown and dark
proved to be O,4O5 pounds. The larges
quantity picked by any one of the hands
4O4 pounds; the smallest-20O pounds
Making an average of 285 Is pounds to thu
hand. Mr.. Cooper, the superintendent seem
to think that the four hands belonging Il
Mr.. Bass of Madison county, must hav,
began to pick at night and quit in the night
He acknowledges being beaten; and at tn
same time says-''If Mr.. Bass thinks he Cal
beat US on Belle Prairie, we will make
worth his attention to do SOD
Having neither negroes to pick cotton, no
cotton to pick, we offer no remarks on tn
subject.

communication Of his this week. We had
intended to give space to one Of these inter

successfully, until brought to a close; but
having nearly filled our inside columns with
articles relative to direct cotton trade, it was
found improbable to insert the communi-

leans Daily Bulletin of the 18th inst
YAzoo.-We learn by a gentleman just
from that portion of the Mississippi, tina. the
weather is fine, and the planters busily en-
gagged in picking cotton; the staple of which
was excellent. 1t is supposed that 1000
bales will be shipped UiG of Yazoo river, an
increase over last year. Manchester alone,
it was said, would ship 100000 bales. We
rejoice at the prosperity of our Yazoo friends,
and wish them an, increase in prices.
The informant of the Bulletin is in a great
measure correct; but he has in his estimate
somewhat moderated the number of bales tc
be shipped at this place during the present
business season. There were shipped at oul
landing, of last years crop, thirty-two thous
and and some odd bales. The crop of th,
last year did not yield near as plentifully a
will that of the present; add to this con
siderable quantity of cotton how bein
brought to YazOo city via the improved rout
from Madison county, and we speak within
bounds when we assert that from forty leigh
TO fifty thousand bales viii go from thi
place this season. Even this amount woul
be much increased, were there good cause
way erected from the Big Black at Higgin
bottoms ferry to the highlands. Let this
done by the citizens of this countys an
thousands of bales that would otherwise
shipped at Satartia, Liverpool, &c. wOul
be added to the commerce of Yazoo City,
We would ask our enterprising fellow-cit
zens to reflect upon this matter, after whic
we have no doubt of action. Upwards {
one hundred and fifty thousand bales wi
be shipped UiG Yazoo river.
