paraded. About half the growing crop
was written out of existence, and in some
cases that which remained was 50 scorched
and burned by the sun OF drenched with
rain that it would hardly be worth the
picking. These reports were invented to
order, paid for by the short crop gamblers.
and published for the purpose of deceiving.
But the dodge is too old to catch any but
the very greenest buyers.
Two months of the gathering season
have passed away. and there has been
ample refutation of the crop reports
which were SO osteatatiously published
with big headings. Already the receipts
Of cotton at this port exceed those of last
year by more than twenty.eight thousand
bales; Of sugar more than two thousand
hogsheads: Of vice above seven thousand
tierces. while there has been an average
crop of corn. potatoes and other articles
of local consumption. We lost nothing
in produce from the overflow. but gained
much assistance from generous donors.
People who live at distance will put
down these discrepancies between esti'
mates and actual results to some cause not
SO complimentary as cautious desire not
to be too sanguine would be. 1t is to be
regretted that these annual attempts 10
deceive should be readily seconded by
persons whose acts throw discredit upon
the good name of the city.

WHICH Is IT?

we rise for information. but direct our
inquiries to the PicayaNae. The Bulletin
calls the present political epidemic DEM
ocratic victory. and seals its statements
with an array of poultry and cannon, sug-
gestive of the rear Of an invading army.
The Times has gone completely back on
us and the whole Republican party. and
claims it as conservative triumph =
We had hoped to have that consistent,
straightforward journal Growing on our
side. But, as we have nothing in particu-
lar to crow over just at present, we are left
alone in our first reverse. while our late
ally is setting mp claim to divide with
political strangers the honors which it has
done little since the fourteenth Of Septem-
Der to gain.
We ask the Picayuee to tell US truly
which is right? Who is the victor? Under
what flag are we now about to march? Is
it the White League, reinforced by thou
sands of colored voters, or the Democracy,
pure and simple? Or is the Times right
in its mincing announcement that the
Conservatives have wrought this great
change? We have a suspicion that there
will be some difficulty in settling these
points. especially when it comes to par.
ceiling out the city patronage valued at
twenty-eight cents on the dollar and o
falling market. Tell US the names of the
true 'sRedeemers of Murdered Louisiana, ct
and how they stand upon some other prin-
ciple beside the we'll known "White men
for Office" idea. If it is good party and
means we'll, perhaps we may give it an
encouraging word unless it falls to pieces
before it is christened.

CROP ESTIMATES PREPARED TO ORDER

There are two parties in the commercial
as well as the political world. They are
divided by their peculiar and antagonistic
interests. and employ runners and writers
to sustain their views just the same as
theological and political disputants do to
promote their interests. The two contend
ing parties alluded to. which fill CONNER
cial circles with the din of their conten-
tions, are known as short choppers and
long troopers. AS no pretense of senti-
ment is ever set up. no hypocritical device

men. there is ring Of frankness in the
mercantile disputes which is absent in
those OF their prototypes. Consistency
is not deemed requisite characteristic.
and no man is ever put on record for any
thing. A short cropper is usually more
active than his rival. for reasons which
grow out Of his position. In this country
he is in the interest Of the most numer.
Gus class. The planter who has raised a
good crop himself is delighted to hear
that all his neighbors have been ruined
by short crops. and that he holds i'll his
hands the keys Of the situation. The
factor who has lot Of old cotton on hand

The work Of collating statistics upon
