THE CoTToN CRoP.-A gentleman
who has lately returned from a trip
through Northern Alabama and
Middle and Western Tennessee, in
forms us that the prospects for good
crop of cotton are very fattering, and
the planters feel satisfied that a larger
yield than usual will be experienced.
The cotton trade is a matter in which
our people are considerably inter
ested. We have already permanently
established a tobacco market, and
our business men should now take
hold of the matter, and make this a
big cotton market. There is no good
reason why it cannot be done. The
same reasons that apply to the to-
baeco market, will, in certain way,
apply to cotton market. We have
the money and the disposition on the
part of buyers to invest, and the only
thing needed is for the cotton market
to be taken in hand by men of en-
ergy, in an energetic manner. Let
US lose no chances to make Evans
Vile a great city. and the commercial
metropolis of the State. All our
merchants have to do is to make up
their minds that we must have a cot
ton market, and we will soon have it.
SMART.-The astute mistake correct
or Of the Busy Map" of mistakes.
yclept the Courier went for US yesterday
because we accidentally located the
school house at the corner Of Ninth
and Division Streets, in Sullivantown.
We intended to say that a school
house had been selected at that point.
for the benefit and convenince Of the
residents Of Sullivantown. We will
wager that the Courier local did not
know the difference himself without
being informed thereof by somebody.
There are a few mistakes that have
occurred in the Courier lately that we
did not call attention to. One day
last week it published as fact that
three negroes had been sent to the
Pest House; one was sent. In an
other article it stated that Court had
been held in Copelli's cigar store,
next to the old Court House building.
And, yesterday morning, it gave list
of the officers of the Tobacco Board,
and says they were elected on last
Monday night, when the fact is, they
were elected on the 9TH of July. We
do not consider the above items wor-
thy of note, only that we want to take
the conceit'' out of the great sta
tistician." who has never been to
f" the lakes"

Stock Raising in tho South.

Contrary 10 the law Of political econ.
omy, that every industry must seek
three channels in which arc to be found
the favorable opportunities for profit,
the North and West have, hitherto,
almost 'monopoizcd tho stock breeding
of the country. The climatic and natu-.
raj advantages Of the North can bear
no comparison with those Of the South
in adaptation to thus pursuit. The rigors
OF q Northern winter; the large outlay
| of time and labor necessary for provid-
ing shelter and forage; the brief pastur.
ing season in those attitudes; the much
larger amount Of food consumed by stall.
fed than by pasturod ANIMALS, and con,
seq"ontly the greater expense attending
the raising OF the iormer--al these are
serious drawbacks in The way Of stock
raising III the North On tho other
hand the genial climate, and largo
unsettled tracts Of pasturoge land in the
South the immense cancbrakes skirting
the Southern rivers, from the Caps
Fear to the Rio Grande, and affvrding
the finest pasturage alike for hogs, and
sheep and cattle; the long continuance
Of the spring and summer seasons and
the shorlness and comparative mildness
oi the winters; all these circumstances
combn. 10 afford tho most unboundcd
facilities for tho breeding Of stock of
every sort, and TO any extent. Shcl or cy.
ccpt from the winter rain storms, is almost
unnecessary in The South. And so far
as stall feeding 10 concerned, there can
not be found IN amy country upon tho
globe 80 wonderful luxlriance OF the
necessary vegetable supply. The very
grasses which have heretofore formed
the most persistent foe Of the planter,
may be utilized in this respect to an
almost unlimited extent. Especially is
this true of the Bermuda grass, which,
II left to itself, Will in an incredibly short
space OF time dcvclopc into the richest
known pastnragc for sheep.
There is every incentive for the
South to avail herself of her great nd.
yantngcs in this respect. AS is always
the case where labor,s diversified, the
benefits derived from stock raising
would react upon other branches Of in
dnslry. The manure accumulated dur
ing tho period OF housing the stock
would be OF tho utmost value TO tho
planter and the transportation Of stock
wonlh hn an important clement Of profit
to r"iilyspal and dv,!sgy !sgyeNmboat enssrprises.
which cannot well he over estimated.

Tho South.
WHAT SIZE is CAPABLE OF.

n few years ago New York received
forty times rs much cotton rs Baltimore
Last year 1t has received only min.
times as much. This fact is terribly
suggestive to northern merchants and
capitalists. 1t is also suggestive to the
southern people, who may discover in it
sure way TO pay Of the debt OF re
vengr which every true Southern man
Is supposed 10 owe us, for all the horrd
denominations Of the negro war Sup
pose the southern people should resolve,
with entire nnanimity, to trade no more
with the north-lhat they should make
Baltimore, and Norfolk, and Savannah,
and other southern ports, the depos of
all their trade with Europe and ,!:e old
world -what then would become of our
commerce? Where will Boston, New
York, Philadelphia, and the lesser cities
OF the nor:h, find the great staple of
commerce, which have hitherto employ
ed more than lwo.lhirds Of our shipping
and our mechanical Industry The
South has only to establish a direct
trade with the O!d World to strip the
north, for all time. Of twolhrds OF its
commerce; and then halt OF ,he other
third may be diverted from the north or
cast by n railroad communication be-.
tween Norfolk, Virginia, and The great
West. With such railroad Norfolk
would bo far more natural and conv..
nrnt entrepot for all tho Western and
European trade than New York. Tha,
the south has this game in its hands, if
it chooses 10 play it, no one will doubt.
AMI, the: eforr every hour the northern
people permit tI:s horrid Congressional
persecution OF the southern people, they
are establishing The strongest possible
motives Tor their own ruin. AS IT is,
n sonIhern nan VIII, trades n single dol
lar with Boston must be a sneak How
much better wonld he be for trndng
with Philadelphia ? 1t is not common
tor hn,uan nature To seek TO strengthen
the hand that smitcs it. Tho very
wealth of New York, which enabled it
|" furnish money to Lincoln TO carry on
the war, was, two,thirds of it at least,
derived from the trade Of The South. If
the south had, twenty years ago, rstab-
iishrd direct trade with Europe for all
her staples, the north would never have

REMARKAnLE ABYss IN TENNESSEE.
On Saturday morning, the 18th inst,
as Mr.. Glenn, of New Market, Jeffer-
son county, Tennessee, was engaged
in ploughing on side hill on tho
farm of Mr.. Hill, half mile from
New Market, he suddenly perceived
his team of horses disappear into the
ground beneath, leaving tho plough
and harness on terra .frma. Upon
examination he discovered that the
ground had first given way beneath
tho hind feet Of the horses, thus "skin-
ming" tho harness over their heads as
the dumb beasts sank into the bowels
of the earth. One Of tho horses was
buried some eighteen or twenty feet
deep and Of course died instantly
from suffocation. Tho other
remained in sight about twelve feet
below the surface. Mr.. Glonn and
his son, who also witnessed the occur
reDco, attempted to save tho living
animal by descending into tho cavity,
but the earth kept giving way beneath
them, and they wore soon unable to
save themselves, and were rescued
from their perilous position by neigh
bors whom their cries brought to the
scene. Both of the horscs were lost
The cavity is circular and twenty feet
in diameter. The dirt and horses fill
the centre, while on each said is a
large fissure, into which logs have
been thrown, disappearing from viow,
and it has been found impossible ia

or stones to. bo seen, yet the whole
side seems to be a nero crust, beneath
which is nm apparently unfathomable
