" Less Cotton"

The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph and Mes
senger, of the 18th instant, writes aH fol-
lows under the above caption o., ra ll..a.
We are rejoiced to hear such accounts
from the planters as leads us to look for q
heavy falling off In cotton production next
year. and corresponding increase in food
crops. This will, indeed, be only the most
ordinary prudence. No man can under
take to predict what sort of a difficulty
with England Butler aud Grant may work
up in their efforts to secure a reelection,
and turn the tide of politics by some re-
markabIe stroke of partisan tactics. Just
as likely as not they may get up war be-
fore tho next cotton crop is marketed. and
we leave the planter to imagine his condl-
tion in such an event, with crop abso-
Iutely unsaleable, and an insufficient sup
ply of provisions on hand. .-s "a.
But we are sorry to hear that other than
prudential reasons will diminish the crop.
Many are retiring from planting, and hir-
ing their lands to negroes. This will lead
| to results in crop and rent which may be
| Represented by cypher. The mass of
the planters will buy little or no fertilizers,
and this will call for another reduction.
We have heard it coniectured that the
crop OF Georgia, from all causes, will faH
! off at least % per cent, or at least loo, 600
J bales. Let us travel along slowly for o
while, and see if we do not make better
speed after all.
