COTTON.


The first bale of cotton of the crop
Of 1873 was received in this city yes
terday morning by Messrs. J. w.
Lathrop & Co., from Messrs. Stegall
& Lathrop, Valdosta. 1t weighed
FIVE hundred and ten pounds, and
classed "good ordinary" Quite a
number of our merchants assembled
at the Cotton Exchange at half-past
eleven o'clock, when it was sold to
Messrs Randall, Dufin & Co., for
twenty seven cents per pound, they
being the highest bidders. After
the sale Nessrs. Lathrop & Co., in
vited their friends among the cotton
merchants and others to unite with
them in celebrating the event over a
basket Of champagne. The occa~
sion passed off very pleasantly, with
mutual interchange of good will.
We find upon examination that
the first bale of this year is just ten
days later than of last year, when
the first bale of cotton received here
was Of Florida growth, raised by Mr..
V. w. Cobb, and consigned to
Messrs. Saunders, Goodwin and Mil
Ter. Its weight was sos pounds and
| it classed flow middling." 1t was
sold on the 3lst Of July to Messrs-
II. Mayer x Co, for twenty five and
one half cents and shipped by them
to Messrs. ;. Kaufman Il Co., New
York, who paid thirty cents for it.
The first bale Of Georgia raised cot
ton was shipped from the plantation
of Mr.. J. ID. Rambo, OF Decatur
county, to Messrs. w. II. Woods d
Co., and sold on the first of August
to Messrs. J. &. Rowland Il Co., for
twenty and one half cents.
The second bale of Georgia raised
cotton, Of the crop Of 1872, was
shipped to Messrs. Davant, NAPLES
& Co., by Mr.. w. d. Harp, Of Balm
bridge. Its weight was $50 pounds
and it sold for twenty and one halt
cents SAP. Ad0eytiSey d Rep.

ANOTHER CLOUD IN THE WEST.

The farmers Oranges are not the
only new movement in the Western
States. There is at least one move
ment, among the farmers OF the
West, which appears to be far more
formidable to the interests it threat
ems than the Farmers Oranges, as
they are called, would appear to be-
1t is combination which claims TO
be thoroughly organized, and to
number now, not less than 3OO,OOo
able bodied men = no women. Its
object is to confscate to each State
the lands that have been voted by
Congress to railroads to be built with
in their respective limits; and to re-
pudiate all subscriptions that have
been made by monopolies within
each State in aid to railroads.
The Fundamental ideas upon which
the movement is based, are that the
grants Of land are void because they
are unconstitutional inconsistent with
the organic law, and have been frau
dulently obtained; and that the vo-
ting of municipal aid is void for the
same reason. This is very broad
sweeping ground and a large party
in the West based on these ideas,
and determined to carry them out,
will give good deal of trouble to the
powers that be, as well as any power
| that would be. Three hundred
thousand men "between the ages OF
twenty one and fifty years. none
others taken-with no Pomonas OF
other floral ornament or impeachment
banded together in secret league,
sworn to demand--"First. That land
grants hitherto made to corporations
or to individuals who do not, and
cannot occupy the lands, shall be de-
claired null and void; !" "And second
That all bonds predieated upon the
property of the people to aid the
building Of railroads or other works
owned and controlled by private cor
porations, be cancelled as fraudulent
or unjust" Such q league making
such demands may give, we repeat,
a good deal of trouble. Truly, a novel
mode of redressing grievances; but
one characteristic of the West, if not
Of human nature in general.
| Whatever the significance of the
above, which comes by way Of an
exchange, the tendency Of popular
feeling is indicated thereby sufficient.

THE COMING CAMPAIGN.

tits now probable that the "Gran-
gers will absorb the entire strength
Of the 1labor reform" parties hereto
fore struggling in the United States,
ard secure large numbers from both
Of the political parties, democratic
and republican. They wil consti
tute "a power in the land in the
next campaign Their objects, Of
course, are, material and industrial
improvements, and 10 this extent,
they i'll be logically political; but
they can never become advocates tor
Ibis or that construction Of the Consti-
tution where the construction affects
the bowers Of the central or state
Governments or the residuary rights
Of the people. Hence, if centralism
has not already absorbed all soyer-
eighty in our country there still ex-
lists the necessity, as at the first, Tor
an organized party in defence OF
'powers not delegated This is
the platform Of the democracy. 30,
with Grant for third term-the
popular yearning, not yet dead, tor
liberty, and the grinding rule of mo-
nopolists to inspire the Changers, we
are likely to have three parties in
the field to contest the right of ruling
this vast country. The Changers
may find that democracy, theoreti>
caIly considered, at least, is natural
ally Of the friends of industrial inn
provement and, possibly, they may
make things sure by supporting it's
nominees. In any other event we
look for perpetuation of the present
rule.

THU COTTON CROP IN ALABAMA

The Dadeville News Of Thursday
saws the corn crop in Tallapoosa on
uplands is very fine. Cotton never
has been better than this season.
And the Headlight Of The same
date says that tho caterpillar has not
yer made its appearance IN ITALIA
poosa, so far as it can learn.
The Selma Times of tho 9th says /:
THE caterpillars, as anticipated,
have made general appearance a.
gain, and this time in far greater
numbers than before. The present
crop has apparently come to life in
the past forty eight hours. Tho
damage done just yet is slight, but
unless they are speedy killed oft,
the cotton crop will be greatly
shortened, aud upon some plantations
there will be almost total failure. -
The North Alabama Reporter
says: From all quarters the crop OF
both corn and cotton are reported
sorry The corn crop in this valley
will be much shorter than last year,
but the recent rains have helped it
very materially. We think the cot
ton crop win be nearly as good as
last year, though some of our plan>
ting friends seem TO pc Of a different
opinion.
