The New Orleans Picayune makes the fol-
| lowing comments in noticiog the annual
circular of Mersrs. Watts Il Co., of Liverpool.
to which we invite the special attention of
our planters:
CLEAN COTTON.
The experience of the past five years has
| shown that, with anything like n reasonable
ay IN to the ses Saiow % n
and is pretty sure to rally soon II below SGD
The staple can be grown and laid down In
our planters have little to fear. from disas-
trous prices so long as the world Is at peace
ai.d England enabled to carry on her greas
| commerce with all quarters OF the GLOBE
But this very superiority Of the American
staple abnOrma ly depresses the vail OF
East nds ad Bran Braa as the
fore, has his choice OF good clean, though
short staple, cotton nom India or Brazil, anu
the poorer qualities of American. The latter
must therefore sell, relatively, very cheap.
| Our planters should, therefore, strive 10 lnl-
prove the grades of their cotton; and SXer,
else great caution In ginning and handling.
Much has been done since the war IN tnis
direction, but the results that have been
.
can be accomplished in the future.
