The ElDorado Sentinel, of the 9th inst

The ElDorado Sentinel, of the 5th inst, says:
 '' We have conversed with considerable number of farmers in this county, and three out of five say they are not going to raise cotton next year. The low price will not justify them in employing such very doubtful laborers to produce it. They are going to grow corn. wheat, oats, rye barley, and raise hogs. This is certainly good idea. They will have more money, live easier and better. If the spindles of New England want our farmers cotton, let them pay for it, and that too, in gold. We have no manufacturing establishments to suffer for the Yant of the staple, so let us Give and die in Dixie," raising ''hog and hom. iny."
