INTERESTING TO COTTON PLANTERs-The fol-
lowing article, which we clip from the Price Cur
rent of yesterday, contains suggestions of great
importance to our Planters, and we doubt not will
be read by them with deep interest
Cotton Ginning and Pdeking-VVe took occasion
last year to make brief reference to complaints
on the part Of purchasers of want of proper care
in the ginning and packing Of Cotton for market
and as this cause of complaint, according to repre-
sensations made to u.s. appears to be rather increa
aing than diminishing, we may be pardOned for
again calling the attention Of planters to the sub
Ject. 1t is known TO all that Cotton is sold by
sample drawn from some part Of the bale and it is
the understanding that this sample fairly represents
the quality Of the bale throughout. This being
the mode Of conducting the Cotton business land
the only feasible one thai we can conceive of it
is obviously duty on the part Of those who tuper-
intend the preparation for market as we'll as the
interest of The planter, the purchaser and the con-
sumeT, that the sample should represent truly the
quality throughout the bale. A moments rehsc-
ton will make apparent the evils of a contrary
course. A manufacturer makes certain style Of
goods, for which he requires New Orleans Fair
Cotton, and he orders, through his agent, say 100
bales of this description. The purchase is made
in the usual course, by sample, and the shipment
and invoice are forwarded accordingly. On reach
ing the mill the bales are opened, and il is found
that instead of uniform class of Fair he has per
haps mixture Of all the grades from Ordinary to-
Coed Fair. Thus he is subjected to double disap-
pointment and double loss for besides the inferior
value Of the Cotton, it does not suit the purposes
OF his business, and he perhaps loses contract or
Is mulcted in damages for It's non-fulflment In
another instance it may happen that purchase of
low quality proves of better average than the
samples, as the irregulary is perhaps as likely to
% against as for the planter. The main evil rests
ia inc TACT that while the mode of conducting the
| business cOntempates unjformitv of ouaIit,S tbe
occasional departures from this basis are calculated
70 WglA INJURY to the entire Cotton interest That
the planter himself is material loser Is evidenced
Oy tne lact mat frequent reclamations are made
after the Cotton has reached its Destination and
sometimes to an important amount, as we Under
stand i to be the custom, when bale of Cotton
g found to be Of mixed quality, to reduce il TO Inc
lowest grade discovered therein,

The MosaulTo SHORE CONTROVERSY. - The
reports from various quarters concnF in stating that
there has been correspondence with the British
Government or Minister about the Nicaragua ques-
ton. The common opinion is that it was held b.
tween Mr. Clayton and Mr.. Champion. The Wash
inglon correspondence Of the Baltimore Sun sup
poses it to be more direct y correspondence
which means, We suppose, between Mr. Clayton
and the British Foreign Secretary, Lord Pamerston
The Mosquito affair threatens embarrassment il
Great Britain has really interfered to Interrupt the
operations Of the American companies, authorized
by the State Of Nicaragua, to make communica-
ton with the Pacific, by the way Of the San Juan
River and Lake Nicaragua The Government
Of the United States will Undoubtedly protect its
citizens in all their just rights, but it does not ap
pear to us very clearyethow the United States and
Great Britain have become contestants at this stage
Of the controversy. If we mistake not, it is the
State Of Nicaragua which claims the sovereignty
over She mouth Of the San Juan River and the ad.
jacent eritoy, and by virtue of that sovereignty,
has granted the right of way to the American COM
panies in question. The dutyof protecting these
rights would, in the first instance, fall upon the
State Of Nicaragua, and the first complaint on be.
half Of American citizens,who were obstrueted in
the enjoyment Of their grant, should be to the State
from which they derived it. Again,i the interior
ence Of the Stale power, or of QUIZ Government,
would also be directed to the parties making the
interruption, or the authority by which they made
it. In this case it would be the faroical Indian
monarchy, in whose name only could the British
pretend to interfere. The halfnaksd, "copper" col
ored King must be used as an enjoy, az least, by
which the British establish pretenee Of right to
NEEDLE in the affair.
We are curious to see how the law has been per-
verted so as to make the United States and Great
Britain already the principals in a controversy
which is really between two different parties,
on subject in which, tue sovereignty of one is
pledged to confer valuable privileges on citizens OF
the United States, which are supposed to eonilict
