The Cotton crop of 1896.

| The following is private letter addressed by na
experienced and Intelligent cotton planter of this
| State 70 one Of our leading cotton factors. His
estimate Of the crop Of this year it will be seen,
is one million five hundred thousand bales. His
views are not based upon mere conjecture, but the
result Of a close Investigation
Dear .Sb'-In reply to your suggestion please
accept the following estimate. 1t is not exact to
fractional exactness, bat near enough for argu-
nent and inference. You will allow me to say
that while do not rejoice in the present, am not
Respondent Of the future. The estimate is this:
The crop Of lS60 vas 100000 bales; the num-
Der Of labdrers was 900 600 black, 100000 white,
thus making an average of 81 bales per hand.
dispose Of the black labor thus: Of the army,
disease, 10000; left field work 100000; black
labore-s now at work in the cotton States, 00O
These, under the old regime, by the average above
ought to make 1,875 900 bales.
Ihey viii not make SO much for these reasons:
Under the old regime they were in the field 81
hours per week. under the new arrangement 4s
hours per week. They thus must do ne-fourth less
work than formerly. But they are not worth as
much While at work as formerly by one-ffth at
least. Thus the possible production--l,8 75 600
baes-must be diminished one fourth and fifth,
leaving l,030,000 as the probable production Of
black laborers.
The white labor t25o,OOO) / dispose of thus:
Killed and crippled and in other employments,
at the above average, make, say 100000 bales.
Add to this the product of black labor 1000 600,
and we have total for 1865, 1900 900 bales.
If any are disposed to question the accuracy Of
the hours Of labor land I write what know
will reduce the slaves hours to sixty per week
advance the freedman's to fifty, and that will
make the aggregate 1000, 900. The relative value
in the field have put too low but we will let it
stand. Many will say it ought to be reduced one
fourth instead of one-ifth.
An incidental and important fact should not be
omitted: the rich auvial lands to large extent
are idle. The dependence must be on the hill
lands, and the best of these wasted by the neglect
| of two or three years.
Take these facts for what they are worth, and
think they are worth as much as the unconsid-
cred trifses of those who are addicted to looking
at the world through gimlet hole. In fact, l
think they are worth much as Gen. Sherman's
dctum, who after visiting Little Rock. Ark, felt
sanguine that a large cotton crop would be made.
And Liverpool repeats the prophecy, and cotton
falls one farthing By such absurdities cotton is
6eGred down to its present unworthy price.
Very respectfully yours,
New Orleans daily crescent. [volume] ([New Orleans, La.]) 1851-1866, 1866-04-12
The Experience of q Federal Officer.

The narrative Of Col. Sanderson, late of the
Federal army, is remarkable commentary on the
kind of evidence that is relied on to prove the
accusations Of cruelty against the Confederate
authorities in the treatment of prisoners.
Col. Sanderson was, for long time, prisoner
at Belle Isle. He is genial, honest man, and a
gentleman The description which he gives of
the character of portion of his fellow prisoners
is not calculated to impress US with very high
opinion of their moral character. He says:
A very brief experience disclosed to me the
almost utter decentralization existing in that en-
campment, of which gang of robbers and muir
derers, who had joined the army to obtain the
immense bounties paid by cities, States and gov
ernments, had the entire control Every squad that
presented itself before me brought numerous vic
tins of then, villainous practices. Old and young
men, the strong and weak, the healthy and the sick
were alike the sufferers. No place was sacred and
no refuge secure. Money, clothing, or subsistence
tempted them, and it mattered little whether il
was the last dollar or the last crust if opportunity
offered or time served for their nefarious pur.
poses So horrid were the details and so numer-
| Gus the complaints that was sickened and Devil
dered.
That there is no exaggeration in this, we refer
to the testimony of private Sansman, who testi.
fees that:
| There was an organized band in the Enclosure
derers, who robbed under the name of raiders, and
who would sally out at all hours lat night espe-
cialy) and attack and assault the weak, sick and
defenseess with their billies, knives and other
weapons and if resistance was made they would
blanket and rob them, and stretch them out for
| dead to be carried out in blanket to their CON-
| rades.
| Col sanderson appealed to Lieut. Bossieux, the
Confederate officer in command, who appears to
have been kind hearted gentleman, " to institute
| some 4measures by which this horrid series Of
| crimes could be abated." The lieutenant, how.
ever, soon convinced the colonel that the remedy
was only in the hands of the men themselves He
however, gave Col. Sanderson the power to in6ict
| a limited punishment, and two rufians were bucked
and labelled the next day after the power to pun
ish existed
| The distinguished Gen. Dow, well known for his
ssthetical tastes, as evinced by his levies OF
pianos and spoons, was prisoner at the same
| time. Col Sanderson, we regret to say, did moi
appreciate the merits Of this pious and philan
thropic warrior. On the contrary, he declined tt
receive Dow into his mess, on the ground that the
distinguished connoisseur of music and plate wal
neither a soldier nor a gentleman" Probably
as Dow never set any great store on either of thos
titles, he found ample consolation in the memor,
of the pianos and spoons which he succeeded il
collecting by the exercise of an industry in thu
art of appropriation, hitherto altogether unpar

THE AcADEMY's STEAM FIRE ENGINE.-The
underwriters are under obligations to Messrs.
Spadng & Bidwell for the protection from fire
their steam engine affords to buildings in the
vicinity. The experiments made on Tuesday
night were exceedingly satisfactory and must
i,upart sense Of safety to the occupants Of neigh
boring houses The machine is an elegant Sewell
force pump, manufactured in New York, and
although intended more especially for the protec-
ton Of the Academy from fire, is supplied with
hose commanding nearly the entire block. On
Tuesday water was thrown to the st. Charles
Hotel and to Poydras, Camp and Carondoiet
streets. Fifteen of the attaches of the Academy
are active or exempt tiremen, and are organized
inCo FIRE brigade, thoroughly drilled and ready
for q sudden emergency. 1t is worked by the
same engine that is used for relrgerating and ven
tating in summer and for heating in winter,
and all the machinery is exposed to the view Of
passers by on the street, where it attracts large
crowds.

FRESH CoTToN SEED.--As planting time is now
at hand, all those DESTROYS of procuring fresh and
reliable cotton seed are referred to the advertise
ment of Mr.. N. G. Gullett, SO Natchez street, who
has on sale 1900 bushels of the Boyd Prolific, aad
1000 bushels of Petit Gulf seed, all of last years
crop. All experienced planters know that it is
true economy to buy pure andreliable seeds, rather
than to take the chances with those that are in
feror and doubtful
