Prices Of Cotton for FOrfy-seVen Years.
The New York Journal Of Commerce has the
following, which will be read with great in
terest: We have been frequently asked 70 give
the prices OF cotton for some past period, and
il IS evident thai a table setting forth the
highes and lowest points reached by this great
staple during a series Of years would possess
no little interest tor a large circle Of readers.
We have therefore compiled, with much care,
the annexed exhibit, extending from ISIS TO
the close Of the current year, giving the lowest
and the highest quotation Of middling cotton
in this market during the twelve months end
ing December 3lst in each Of the periods
named. II Lowest point IL has reached for
nifty years was in the spring OF lS45. We recoi-
lecr the date most distinctly A gentleman
living in New England had about 5000 to his
credit IN a Southern bank. He came TO the
writer and asked how II could be made availa-
bic at his home. as he could not buy a bill Of
exchange except at q high rate, and the bank
notes were at a considerable discount. We
suggested the purchase Of cotton as a REMIT
remarkiDg that IL was lower than IL ever
had been before, or ever would be again in our
time he made the purchase at or about tour
cents a pound, shipped II north, where IL sold
soon after arrival at or near nine cents a
pound, thus more than doubling his capital.
He is not living now, or we should take this
occasion te remind HIM that he never said
" Thank you" for the advice that delivered
him from his dilemma.

Goals and unconsumed wood and other combusti-
PIE matter over all the adjoining buildings lying to

The danger to adjoining property appears to be

danger among the warehouses in our great cities.
have often observed that thousands or blast fur
naces regulate the force OF the blast at Twyres by
valve or lid on the top OF the stack Where full
DRAFT required the valve Is wide open and reduce
the draft and the heat in the bosh OF the furnace
the valve Is closed. This simple and familiar action
OF the furnace suggests that II our tall and SUBJ
stantiai warehouses where covered with strong
lncombustlbe roof, close and firmly fitted to the
four walls, 80 as to leave vent for the air, and
TOO substantial to be lifted on by any ordinary
force, that any fire occurring In such building
might smouller and consume, or damage the go0,ls
inside; but the damage and danger would be con-
fined to the four strong walls Of the building l
nope these suggestions may attract the attention
OF merchants and builders. This plan presents \
scientific, practicable and cheap protection against
the propagation Of fires by our tall and heavy
warehouses. VERITAS.
