has dissented. We know the planting has been large,
yet, mindful of the chances that must be taken,
coupled with the now existing transition state of
qualified. And now, new drawback is reported
from many portions of the cotton growing sections of
the country many of the seed planted were old and
consequence there has been failure in securing
good stand. Whilst the seed possessed sufficient Of
the necessary oils to generate and send the plants
perfect them therefore the plants have died ont
To such an extent this the case in the cotton grow
ing sections along the Mississippi that many of the
planters plowing up and planting in corn and
other cereals We have been of the impression that
the planting of cotton in our own section has been
greatly at the expense of the provis ion crop. This
should not be any time and from the reports that
have alluded to- the prices of the necessities will
think, be very high and that it would be even
now, the part of wisdom, to increase the incoming
provision crop, by every means that may be.-Jack-
