The average production las, year per acre,

TO l.2 cent on colton-having revived the

prospect of improvement. The intelligence
received in England from this country, that
caused ihe advance. was the fact that the
present crop would be late one-not that
it would be seriously cut off by wet weather,
worms, &c. When this news is conveyed
across The Atanlic--proving that even the
