THE CoTroN CRoP.-The new cotton year will
commence in ten days, and great anxiety felt with
regard to the cotton crop, which is known to have
been much injured by the drought in Texas, Geor
gia, Alabama and Mississippi. The extent of the
damage is OF course matter of conjecture. In some
localities, they write that the plant is destroyed be-
yond salvation; in others, 1T is said tue rams
which have fallen copiously within the past few
days have revived it, and that the crop will be an
average after all. Cotton can stand good deal of
drought, as is known especially in the low lands.
Within the past day or two we have seen estimates
of 600 600 bales for the crop of 1860, and others
which do not allow more than 100000. The crop
expected by the planters at the commencement of
the season was 900 bales. -

Early next year Buenos Ayres will have surren-

hind the Imperial Palace. These castles are each
surrounded by walls and bitches.
The palace itself had but one story, but Of lofty
height 1t occupied an extensive ares, ,und had up-
merous long galleries and spacious rooms, which,
by putting on or removing screens, might be EN-
larged or brought into a narrower compass, as
occasion required and were 50 contrived as to
receive convenient and sufficient light. The chief
apartments had each particular names, such as,
for instance. the waiting room, where all persons
admitted to an audience, either Of the Emperor or
of his Ministers of State had to wait till they
were introduced; the council chamber, where the
Mnist rs OF State and Privy Councillors met upon
business the hall of n thousand mast where the
Emperor received the homage and usual presents
of the PRINCE of the Empire and Ambassadors Of
foreign powers; several halls Of audience. the
apartments of the Empsror's household and
other. The structure Of ali these several apart
ments was -e1quisitsly fine, according to the
architectural notions Of the Japanese. The
ceilings, beams and pillars were Of cedar or cam

ran into flowers and other curious figures, and
