TT Last week, up TO Friday morn

w Last week, up TO Friday morn
ing, was showery one; partial dam
age to the cotton has been sustained in
consequence. Since Friday morning
the showers have ceased and we are
having very cool, and quite unseason-
able weather. We can hear of the
catapillars on Cotile, they are doing
some damage, but have commenced
webbing up. The second crop of these
cotton destroyers will not be along be-
fore the 18th of next month, and our
planters are sanguine that they cannot
do much harm. Picking is now in full
blast and progressing finely and rapid
ly. Five bales of new cotton were
shipped last Thursday, and much more
could have been shipped ere this, but
our planters cannot spare the present
precious time to gin and press out
their cotton.

EFFECT OF PAPER MONEY ON LABORING
MEN AND TAx-PAYERs.--The following are
plain figures which every day laborer aud
every taxpayer can understand. "a La-
boring Man" writes the following to the
Bengor (Me.) Democrat:
For four days work in 1859 could buy
a barrel of excellent -four. For an equally
good barrel now have to work eight
days.
For one days work in 1859 I could buy
five pounds of tea. For same days work
can now buy but two pounds.
For one days work then could buy
thirty pounds of sugar. For days work
now I can buy but fifteen pounds.
For days work in 1859 could buy
eight pounds of tobacco. For days work
now can buy but three pounds.
For days work in 1859 could buy fif.
teen pounds of coffee. For days work
now can buy but five pounds.
For one months work in 1859 could
clothe myself and family fot one year. To
do the same now am obliged to work two
months and half

of articles that laboring man and his
family consume. The fact is that we are
permitted to enjoy but one-half of the

cause of this robbery Of labor, and apply
