weigher at this place informs us that during

dcrson for January, 1879, of 5s4 bales over
that of January 1878. This swells the ag-
grcgate number of bales received at the
depot at this place during the present sea-

period last year, showing an increase in the
receipts in favor of this year of 4,22S bales.
