The Mississippi Levees.

Gen. Abbott, in his report to Major Gen
Humphreys, makes some interesting calcu-
lations as to the probable cost of perfccting
the levees of the Mississippi. He places the
cost of perfectinS them TO their present
height at S6,940,000, and of perfecting them
to proper height at $3G,320,000. In con-
Guiding his report, he says
The cost of the Mississippi levees as in
dictated in the foregoing table, would not be
trifling, but it should be remembered that
the figures are based upon present inflated
prices. The project can hardly be consider
ed as beyond the limits of judicious invest
ment, when it is remembered that the
amount actually expended upon the Erie
Canal exceeds $33,C00,000, and this, too,
mostly paid in gold. \ slight idea of the
profits which may be anticipated, as COM
pared with the necessary outlay, can be
formed from the following facts: The total
area of the bottom lands Is about $4,000
square miles. of which mere narrow strip
along the main stream and its principal
+ tributaries and bayOus. has been heretofore
open to cultivation. Protected against the
river and properly drained, this would rem
der available at least S2,5O00C0 acres of
sugar land, or more than double the amount
heretofore planted; about 100000 acres of
the best cotton land in the world, capable of
Welding a bale to the acre; and not less than
100000 acres of corn land of unsurpassed
and inexhaustible fertility. An expenditure
of about three dollars to the acre (present
prices of land actually made cultivable by
the levees, would thus be sufficient to re-
claim them from overflow. Supporting the
cotton lands alorc to be under guilty alton,
a tax of one cent a pound for one crop
would nearly pay the cost of the levses for
the entire valley.

Cotton Supply.

Three associations from Manchester, on
the 18th of March. appeared before the Duke
of Argyle, at the India Office, in London, to
urge the necessity of more active measures
TO prosecute the culture of cotton l.. India.
The statement was made that, for the last
eight years, the supply to manufacturers had
been short. Another fact of great impor-
lance and significance to this country was
brought to light. 1t appears that sixteen
millions of acres are under cultivation in
India. which produce no more cotton than
two millions of acres in the United States.
The growing of cotton in India is attended
with serious disadvantages. The soil is not
new and fresh as in our country. 1t requires
manuring and irrigation. The excessive
heat causes great cracks in the earth, which
interferes with irrigation, and there are no
frosts or freezing to kill the stalk so that il
can easily be got out of the way for the crop
of the next year. Labor is unskillfal also,
and it is difficult to have the cetton receive
proper attention. Besides this. withdraw
ing so large portion of the soil from culti-
walton for food products threatens the pop
ulation with starvation. Neither is the cot
ton produced of SC good a quality as that
grown in the United States.-Memphis Post.
