Spartanburg.

The Gazette publishes some interesting
facts concerning the cotton crop Of Spartan
burg, by which it appears that from Sep
tember 80, 1868, to February II, 1860, $50
bales Of cotton were shipped from the
Courthouse, 400 bales more were made in
the upper part Of the county, and 27OO
bales in the lower part, giving total crop
of at least 1000 bales, worth in money about
100000. In 1860, Spartanburg produced
6279 bales of cotton, so that the last crop is
very encouraging in quantity, while it must
have produced in money fully as much as
the larger crop. In 1860, however, the
county produced 1907 pounds of tobacco,
8Oc, 900 bushels OF corn, and 14l,648
bushels Of wheat. How much Of these did
spartanburg produce in 186s-69? Was
enough corn and wheat raised to supply
the county for the year?
The farmers Of Spartanburg are sensible,
and we believe far seeing, and 1t is hoped
that the 100000 which they made last
year from cotton has not induced them to
plant one acre less than usual in corn and
wheat. A full cotton crop will be Of little
value if We have to buy bread with the
money for which the staple is sold.
