Danger of Too Much Cotton being Raised.

Danger of Too Much Cotton being Raised.
Our readers will share with us the surprise
and pleasure with which we read the following;
paragraph from the Montgomery (Alabaua)
+" Ledger" 1t is surely good pews to IN to
hear that SO far from the cotton crop proving
to be a failure next year, the only danger
against which it is thought necessary to warn
the planters is an over-crop.
The mania for greenbacks and the high
price that cotton has been lately bringing, VIC
fear will induce the planters Of the South to
put too much land in cotton next year. The
ordinary calculations Of prudence and sound
reasoning should premonsh them against such
Il policy.
Why is it that cotton sells at such enormous
prices as now? Plainly because Of it's scarc-
ty> And the price will inevitably decline as
the production increases. Mcssrs Nell,
Brothers & Co., Of New Orleans, we'll known
for the accuracy of their statistics regarding
cotton, estimate the present stock Of cotton ilD
the United States. old and new crop, at some
thing over two million bales. If this be true,
which we do not doubt, a large crop next year,
say four million bales, would unqnestionaby
bring down the price to antc-war rates. On
the other hand, a crop Of half that amount
would probably not materially decrease the
price. Would it not, then, be better for the
people Of the South to raise only two million
bales, which would bring them as much money
in the markets of the world as four millions /?
and doing this, plant largely in the cereals
With half tho amount of land planted, half
the labor, half the yield, and two-ftAd price,
they would have abundant supplies of food and
grain crops, and with small price for the cot
ton, its proceeds would be consumed in the
purchase OF necessary supplies
