The Cotton Crop.

WASHINGTON, October 17.--According to
the report of the Agricultural Bureau the
average condition of cotton in the first week
Of October as compared with October re-
ports of 1871 and 1872 stands as much higher
than that OF the former year as 1t falls below
the record of the latter, the standard
crop being good normal growth.
The yearly losses from worms or
other causes almost always reduce the record
below one hundred, and the present reduc-
ton usually occurs in September. The aver
age this year has fallen off from 80 to 783
since the first week Of September-a larger
reduction than usually occurs. The general
average in October, 1871, was IS; it was 50
in October Of last year. The area was one
eighth greater in 1872, and the autumn more
favorable for development and picking, and
The result an increase Of about one million
bales. The area of the present year was in
creased about 10 per cent, but Il portion Of
the enlargement was abandoned, and the
October status of the crop is materially re-
duced. The season must be of average
length and comparatively favorable for
picking to insure Il crop equal to that Of
last year. The State averages are rs follows
Virginia, so; North Carolina, SS; South
Carolina. 80; Georgia, 81 Florida, IS ; Ala
bama, 7S; Mississippi, 75; Louisiana, 65;
Texas, so; Arkansas, SO; Tennessee, 90;
Missouri, 90. Worms have continued their
rayages and made advances upon new terri
tory in Arkansas and North Carolina. Seve-
raj counties in the latter State report the
presence of the caterpillar for the first
time. A disastrous, storm destroyed much
cotton In Florida and In adjacent States on
the 10Th of September. Much stained cot
ton is reported in the seaboard States. There
is general complaint that the plants are
already hare of leaves, and that picking will
be completed at an early date. In some
counties Of the Gulf States 1t Is claimed that
there will be an average crop notwithstand-
ing the caterpiIler and boll-worm, while in
other counties a loss Of one-third of the
crop from worms Is expected.

IN nc lie Page Brothers. Judgment Of
District Court affirmed.
The cases Of Fauntleroy, billiard, ct al,
were argued by counsel, and the cour; took
the matter under consideration. These
cases involved the constitutionality OF
the bankrupt law as to the power
OF the District Court in bankruptcy to
interfere with the State courts; also, the
construction Of the recent amendments TO the
bankrupt law eDlargiDg the bankrupts en-
emption; and particularly the lawful force
of the amepdments in overriding judgment
liens and cAtitling bankrupts to exemptions
as against such liens; and, also, the effect OF

fixed Tuesday the 2Sth instant for the trial
of this case. It comes before him under the
superior jurisdiction Of. the Circuit Court Of
the United States ever the District Court in
matters in bankruptcy. The object of the
proceedings in the District Court was to
have }. j. Waggoner, w. &. Harvey, and
Robert Harvey declared bankruptS as mem-
bers OF the firm of Wag3oner d Harvey, the
main point being whether Robert Harvey
was member of that firm. Much testimony
was taken on both sides before Judge
Underwood, and after the evidence was
given in, and before the arguments com.
mcnced, Judge Underwood suggested, as
the case was one Of great Importance,
and as both parties seemed determined to
carry the litigation to an appeal, whether II
would not be better for him then to enter
pro forma decree, and thus save the time OF
the court and avoid postponement OF up
peal to another term, as he would not nave
time to decide the case upon argument az
this term. Parties agreed TO this, ana
judgment was entered in accordance with
the above understanding-tlat Robert Hai-
vcy was not partner OF the frln.
The case will now 90 up before Judge
Bond as an original case. The amount in
volycd is about $4,000. This case will be

citizen of Richmond, died at his residence

THE STATE ELECTIONS.
OHIO.


COLUMBUS, October 1.-THE result for
Governor is still doubtful. Figures made at
midnight last night by both parties are ex-
ceedingly close. The heavy Republican loss
in Ashtabula county is one of the things
that reduces the majority claimed for Noyes.
To-day the latest figures are to the effect
that the Democratic gains in ten or
eleven counties, which have only been heard
from through rumors, will not have to be so
large as the average gain in other counties
to elect Allen by small majority. If Allen
should be elected by ma jority Of less than
500, there will still be doubt on the balance
of the State ticket. Meagre returns of the
vote for other State officers indicate that the
Republican candidate for Governor ran Il
little behind Ills ticket.
WAsHISGToN, October 1.-THE following
dispatch from Ohio was received at the H.
terror Department this afternoon: " We
think Allen is elected. The Republican
State officers are elected. The Legislature
is Democratic. Three Republicans are
elected from Cincinnati"
DEs MoINEs. October 17.-Thc Republicans
claim 20 majority in the Legislature Oh joint
ballot.
CALIFORNIA.
SAN Francisco, October 1I.-MckinStry' 5
majority is 5000.

VIRGINIA AGRICULTURAL FArR.-The Stat e
Fair, from present indications, promises to
be quite success this year, entries having
already been made from New York, Penn
sylvania, Maryland, and New jersey. The
secretary, f. G. Leigh, Esq, is daily receiv-
ing communications from various western
States in reference to the Fair. 1t would be
well for all parties having stock or anything
else to enter for exhibition to do so before
the 25th instant, as the regulations of the
Society require all entries TO be made prior
to that time.
The work of cleaning up the grounds is
progressing very rapidly, the pavilion has
been completed, the track has been put in
splendtd condition; in fact, nearly every.
thing to secure the comfort of visitors and
exhibitors has been completed, or will be In
a few days. In addition to other improve
ments, a miniature lake has been constructed,
which will add not little to the grounds.

THE REGISTRATION LAw.-But few people,
even registrars themselves, appear to under
stand the laws Of registration now IN force.
Section 7 of the amended act, approved
March II. 1873, is as follows:
"Section !. Each registrar shall annually,
on the second Tuesday in May, at bis voting
place, proceed to register the names OF all
The qualified voters within bis voting district
not previously registered in the said district,
in accordance with the provisions of this act,
who shall apply to be registered, commend
ing at sunrise and closing at sunset, and
shall complete such registration on the said
second Tuesday in May. Ten days previous
to the November elections the registrar
shall sit one day for the purpose of amending
and correcting the list, at which time any
qualified voter applying and not previously
reristered may be added. Provided, That
in each city or town having more than two
thousand inhabitants the registrar may sit
three days previous to any State, city, coun-
ty, or township election. The registrars
shall give notice of the time and place of all
registrations for ut least ten days before each
sitting by posting written or printed notices
thereof ut ten ur more public places in their
townships, wards, and election districts.
And the registrar shall, at any time previous
to the regular days OF registration, register
any voter who may apply to him to be regis
tered and who will he entitled to vote at the
next succeeding election; and the registrar
shall receive the same compensation for the
names so registered on days other than the
regular days of registration that assessors
may be entitled to for listing births and
deaths"
From this section it will be seen that per-
sons can register at any time previous to the
regular days of registration, in any town
ship or ward. Registration books will also,
in accordance with the above law, be opened
on Saturday the 25th, and on Monday and
Tuesday the 9th and 18th. Every Conser-
yative should see that his name is properly
registered. Every vote should be polled on
election-day. See, therefore, that your name
is properly registered. If you have changed
your residence, you may have to change
your voting-place also. See to it that not u
vote is lost
