Cotton.

The St. Louis papers are full OF reports
of the fair in that city. The Demoerot says
editolially:
One of the most interesting and judi:
cously inaugurated departments in our
great fair is that devoted TO the production
Of cotton. To develop this resource, a lib
eral prize of five thousand dollars has been
established, for which producers in all of
the cotton growing States are invited to
compete. The alacrity with which pro-
ducers have responded, and the interest they
manifest in our exposition. may be gathered
from a glance at the list OF competitors.
Mississippi heading the list, is represented
by forty-tour entries, Louisiana by sixteen,
Tennessee by eleven, Arkansas by ten, Ala
bama by five, Texas by four, Georgia by
three. South Carolina by two and North
Carolina by one. This result is particularly
gratifying. as ii indicates the existence OF
healthy emulation among the Southern
States, and promises large increase to the
trade Of St. Louis.

This is dispatch about the effects Of vel
low fever:
WASHINGTON. October 6.-The yellow te-
yer in New Orleans has produced great en-
barrassment in carrying the mails into
Texas. and along the Gulf generally. All
places east and west of New Orleans have
been placed under quarantine. both railroad
and boat communication. Mobile is quar-
against Mobile. which summarily stops that
mail route. The towns on the Mississippi,
above New Orleans. have not vet taken the
alarm, and river boats are making their reg
ular trips. The pOstOtfice department VIII
not, in such an emergency, hold mail con-
tractors to the penalties for not carrying
according to contract.
o'clock last night fire was caused in the
house No. rs Basin street by some children
playing with fire. The flames extended to
some bedding, burning about two hundred
dollars worth of property. No alarm was
given, Officer Simonds preventing the Ne
cessity.
We copy this from the Madison journal:
Governor War1noth, and other distin-
guished gentlemen of the Republican party,
are announced to speak at Monroe on the
eighth instant. If the Governor could
make it convenient to stop in Madison. and
give our people talk, it would be graft
flying to them, and we think his reception
here would be pleasing to him.
