FuEL.-The supply of fuel will not
long remain vexed question in Mon
roe. 8 everal parties in town are about
substituting coal CRATES for the wood
fire-places, expecting to use coal, even
though to- do SO they will have to
order their supply from the dealers in
New Orleans. But we were recently
informed that the demand for coal at
this point, brought about by the revolt
ution in navigation which inaugurated
weekly trips to Camden and the conse:
quept loss of tonnage incurred by TAX
ing full supplies of coal in New Orleans
or Baton Rouge, as we'll as the neces
sites of the town itself, would certainly
induce some coal dealer to establish a
depot At this place with supply OF
coal fully equal to all demands. We
have no doubt such an Investment
will pay handsomely, or. that, with
present prices of wood and facilities
for obtaining it, our citizens will be
long in obtaining CRATES for their chin

that date; one beginning on. or, subse

CorroN.-There is still a consider
able quantity of cottou unpicked on
the plantations below here. This is
due apparently to heavy crop, but in
reality comes from not being able to
push the laborers during the picking
season. Some planters who used to
pick ten bales to the hand, find it inn
possible now to pick more than Eve.

AT HIS OLD STAND.-Mr. q. W.
McFec, the attentive and well-known.
druggist, having completed the repairs
on his building made necessary by the
fire which occurred in JuEe, has re
turned to his former place of business
corner of Grand and DeSiard streets,
aud is COW provided with stock of
drugs, chemicals, &c, the equal OF
which has never been brought to Mon
roe.. His shelves glisten with new bot
ties, all labeled with their several con ,
tents in letters plain and distinct. His
prescription case is pefect model OF
its kind in system, completeness and
simplicity. The store room has been
enlarged, and is we'll arranged and
beautifully finished. Altogether. we
imagine, there are but few such estab-
lishments in any country.
PLANTING PROsPECTS.-After diligent
inquiry of planters, we conclude there
viii be little alteration in this years
planting arrangements from those Of
last year. The freedmen appear to
have no squeamishness about entering
into contracts, except that they gener-
ally insist upon planting on shares.
The number of changes are compar-
lively few, great many planters bav-
ing secured the same hands for 1870
they employed in 1869. The dcma nd
for labor is brisk as we expect
ed, which, however, may result from a
general understanding that as there is
only very limited surplus of uuen-
gagged hands, it would be idleto make
any great effort to obtain them.
