The very positive accounts which have reached
us from the most undoubted sources, of the great
injury TO the crop by the frosts of the 25th, 26th
and 9th October, place beyond all question the
fact of very short yield and we are more deci-
dedy confirmed in views which have from time
TO time been presented to readers in the arti-
cles under the above head.
Scarcely letter comes from any part of the Cot
ton region, sending to this place, that is not to the
same effect as the following extracts:
"NATCHEz, Nov c.
"Our Cotton crop likely be shorter than expect
ed for the accounts are more unfavoabe every day. The
is nearly cosedthe LIST December will finish the crop
pretty much, with nine Out of ten planters-and many will
finish in days weeks The fiost of 18th was
death blow to all hopes of crop over the past one,
Another letter states:
The severe osts of 18th and 18th October have destroyed
the young and unpe bols think the will be less than
two million is impossible pick any thing like crop in
siA or seven weeks, as this has been done"
Another letter states:
THE bales very light this season. and will continue to
be 50 If the dry weather continues tOit found owing
the uncommon elasticity Of the Cotton, that it is difficult to
make bale weigh over 400 lbs, and great number will
weigh less.''
Those who have read our earlier articles, particu-
larly Of Sept, and IA, will recollect how strong
and decided our belief that we were entering
on the shortest picking season" that had ever be-
fore occurred. The correspondence of every packet
and mail fully confirms the accuracy of that belief
and the very early cessation of picking, must con-
vince the most skeptcal that none other than a
very short crop,can be made. Still, there being no
object to lessen our estimate of about 1850 900
bales, we adhere to those figures, though in our
candid belief the chances are that this is an ex-
IRENE estimate.
We are most happy in being able to confirm
what stated in our article of Saturday last, in
regard to domestic demand for Cotton The
NewYork " Dry Goods Report " of Both October,
exhibits decided advance in all American Cotton
fabrics, with extensive operations in the lower
kinds indeed, brown and beached shirtings and
sheetings, osnaburgs drills, and prints, seem to
have suddenly come into active favor, and a most
marked and beneficial change appears to have
taken place in the Northern manufacturing Cotton
trade
In regard to the extent of the crop, we may add
that the yield is evidently short in the Atlantic
States that the last Charleston Prices Current and
Commercial Report states that two millions and
under have become quite general estimate

Union and the Constitution, are going ahcaa, :"
as Mr.. Webster commended them to do. The
New York meeting OF this night will display an
array OF influence in favor OF the Unon-an array
OF talent, enterprise, and patriotism more powerful
than the Macedonian phaanX or the Roman
legion The world is not now governed by the

Government so free that its burdens are scarcely

a moment the whole scene may be changed.

Is melancholy to contemplate the fact that this
great people, now quietly engaged in their in

may through the indiscretions of few enthusiasts
be called to exert their terrible energies in hostility
to each other
In the years 1920 and 1921, when the Missouri
question arose, there was an excitement of a geo.
graphical character. A contest arose for political
power between sections nearly equally balanced.
But 1t was settled, and when settled, the people
universally abded by the settlement. For years
there was peace in the land. But, during General

Tbs Claimants Internationally reference to a
notice in another column, it will be seen that the
Oabmen, hackmen, etc, will hold q meeting on
Tuesday evening next with view to the forming
OF an association for the purpose of adopting rules
and regulations for the future government of all
who engaged in that business. This is an ex-
sellent movement. We have long thought that an
association of this class of persons not only highly
important but necessary. If they will bind them
selves together by judcious article of association
adopt stringent rules for their own government,
and for the reformation of the abuses practiced by
come Of themselves, which have greatly tended to
bring them class into discredit, they will sue
seed in redressing many Of the grievances which
they have long suffered and greatly advance tn cir
own interests, while contributing to the public
good. We most heartily approve of this move
ment, and hope that it will be attended with com
Plete success. The meeting on Tuesday evening
will be held on the corner of Poydras and Circus
streets. The public generally are invited to be
present.
