The Cotton Crop,

The annual statement of the cotton crop of
the United States for the year ending August
81, 1860 has just been completed at the office
of the Shipping List. The crop is the largest
by far ever made-the aggregate being in ex-
cess of all but the most sanguine estimate.
We annex comparative table of receipts,
specifying from what source they were de-
rived:

1t will be seen from this that very large
proportion of the increased crop has been
shipped to Great Britain. An immense stock
is now on hand at Liverpool. and this, in con-

has kept the market there very much unset

IL ia now over fourteen months since District
Court was held in Great Salt Lake County, and, in ad
dition 10 q large number Of criminal on the
docket lere are cases Of litigation among merchants
amounting to over 500 900. The natural anxiety for
a settlement Of tLese cases, and the constant impor
tuniiy Of merchants, since the arrival Of District
Judges in TIE Territory induced the Chief Justice and
Aseociate Justice, now here TO request the Governor
to call extra special session OF the Legislature.
for the purpose Of assigning Judges TO districts. and
appointing tie time for holding the Territorial Courts
Heretofore the United States Judges have acted on
trely nde endent of the Legislature Of the Territory,
and appointed times for holding COurs for Territorial
business 10 suit their own convenience and pleasure.
Tie new appointees now that Mormonism Is fact taxi

reace Is scarcely imueua.ed before good deal Of ex-

nobody WA consulted upon the convenience or ineonve-
nence Of holding the special session, and ii seemed
scarcely likely that the Legislature, entirely Mormon,
would saerifce large personal interests for the sake OF
coming together few weeks sooner than usual In
Nebraska and Kansas, Governors are empowered by
the letter of TIE acts Of organization to call special ses-
Mons Of tie Legislature, but in the organic act Of th
Territory, there is no such provision Why this dier

this reason for noncompliance with the Governors
