The Cotton CrOD.
vacancy

One of the leading topics of discus
sion among commercial men is the
cotton crop, now about to be gathered
in the Southern States. 1t assumes
just now more importance than any
other, for the reason that upon it de-
ponds the trade from the South the
coming Fall and Winter, in which our
merchants, as we'll as those of all other
commercial cities of the country, have
an interest. 1t and tobacco are now
our chief articles Of export, and these
are the leading products with which
wehope to lesson the drain ofgold from
the country which is constantly going
on. The picking of the cotton crop
is now being actively carried on in all
the cotton States, and by the expira-
ton of the. present month the great
bulk of it will be gathered. There is
much difference of opinion as to the
amount Of theryield, astthe reports are
very conflicting, and different regions
of country have been yariously affect
ed by injurious causes. We think the
reports of damage are much exag-
gerated, as is usual with all growing
crops3 but! in many places the plants
been much injured. The quantity
that came out last year after the close
Of the rebellion was greatly beyond
the estimates that had been made of
the quantity then in the Southern
States, but whether there win be an
agreeable disappointment of the same
kind this year there are no means
whatever of judging But it is certain
that there is no back stock of any
consequence in the South, nearly all
that was left by the rebellion having
already been brought out, and the
entire amount on hand at the close of
the season will be such as has been
raised during the current year. We
shall look forward with interest for
the. Southern cotton reports of the
next few weeks. ~! 5tl.t y al

Rounties to Soldiers.

The Chicago Evening Journal, of the 2lst
inst, contains letter from Hon. Jonn
Wentworth, in reference to the soldiers
bounty bill, in which he advises the sol
iiers to keep their papers in their own
hands, and says: ga
"Iam not without hope thatthe Senate,
early in December, will take up ehe Dill
passed by the House for the equal1Zation OF
bounties. This was the bill the soldleIs
asked for 1t was a bill to give those VINO
entered the service upon the first call from
patriotic motives merely. the same bounty
as those who entered at a later day. That
bill gave eight dollars and q third per
month which was $500 to the three years
men, whereas the present gives but $l00 TO
them, and but $50 to the two years men,
One half the time taken up in passing
the bill which enables members OF Con-
gress to take from the Treasury, without
warrant of justice, the $1,000 additional
pay they voted themselves would have
been more than sufficient to pass the bill
which Mr.. Wentworth thinks can be done
at the next session. Cincinnati linton.
Here is another JOHNSON organ
abusing our Congressman, Mr.. NIB
LACK. It is too bad that he should
be thus treated by his own friends.
1T will be remembered that N1BLAcK
boosted about his efforts to secure the
passage of the Bounty Bill, and la
mented the. great injury to his CON
science in being compelled ito take
the $1,000 increased pay sAndonow

The Presidents Visit to indianapolis,

The Copperheads of indianapolis
have taken the reception of the Presi-
dent out of the hands of the City and
State officials, and propose to manage
it themselves. IF the President, as
announced, is making his grand tour
in an official capacity, why should
these partisans be so forward to fore
stall the action-of the City and State
officials? We find in the Herald the
action of the Democratic State Cen
trail Committee, in appointing dele
gates from each Congressional Dis
trict to receive His Excellency. Our
fellow-citizen, RICHARD RALEIGH, is
appointed to represent the Democracy
of the First District. The Indianapolis
journal is disposed to find fault with
this action, but we think it eminently
appropriate. The President conceiy7
ed the tour he is making for purely
political purposes, and at every place
where he has made a speech of any
length, heshas taken special pains to
laud has Policy in opposition to the
course Of Congress, and even has SO
far forgotten the dignity of his Office
as to apply the term traitors TO, the
leaders Of the Republican = Union
party, Wherever aIloyal Mayor or
Governor has met him, i,as the repre-
sentative of the people, he has not
omitted in some way..to insult them OF
the party to which they belong. His
excursion is nothing more than a
stumping canvass in the interest OF
the Copperhead party. and we think
it entirely proper that the men of that
party should bear the burdens and
reap the honors Of his receptions,
