The COTTON Cron

The New York Herald says We fear
that the statistics relative to the cotton
crop are put at too nigh figure. Unhap
PLY the unsettled state of politics and the
disorgauizaton of labor throughout the
South have prevented the most sanguine
from predicting crop Of more than.a mill
lion or a million and half of full bales
Let US hope that the new year on which
we have entered will diminish, if it may
not entirely remove the obstacles to agri-
cultural production in the outh, and that
everywhere, North, South, East aud West,
the prodigious resources of this vast. coun-
try may be developed to an unprecedented
degree by intelligent and successful indus
try.
The New Orleans Times, writing on the
same point, says Considering the short
ness Of the crop, the facility for trabspor-
tation, and the promptings of necessity
under which the planters have been
obliged to rush their products into mar
ket, we think it fair to presume that half of
the crop has already been received. If
this be the case our crop win not exceed
100000 bales, for, up to the pEesent
date, there have been but 462, 772 bales re-
ceived at tide-water- in all the ports 10 this
country. 1t is possible that the total pro-
duct may reach 800, 600 bales, aud deal
ers on the Atlantic will be greatly deceived
if they look for larger 6gufes, As soon
as the true state Of the crop is fully known.
the prices must advance, and every plan
ter and factor that can possibly do so.
should refuse to sell it at present prices"
A SUeaEsrIoN-Th Richmond Eng,ei-
rer says that che upright action of the Su-
preme Court has inspired the country with
hopes Of a speedy tranquilization. The
revolutionary proceedings of Congress are
promised a check which has been little
counted on. The ierritoriaIizing scheme
cannot be so contrived as to pass the judi
cial test of constiCutionalty, aud the vari-
Gus laws which may essay to deprive States
Of their rights viii be pronounced null.
The Enquirer. also, uggesJs that the
people OF the South ought to arrange for
Il e quiet assertion Of their rights before
the courts, and call upon the judges 20 say
whether it is lawful to tax without repre-
sen alton. or whether a Congress which
excludes the representatives Of ten States
is a lawful authority.
