THE FALL TRADE.

We are glad to see that business
has already frightened up consider,
ably IN Town, and to note the steady
stream of cotton bales coming in.
Our merchants all have full stocks
of goods and the business season
upon which we are now entering is
likely to be prosperous one to
them. The planters have all made
an abundance of corn and can afford
to dispose of all their cotton crop
without having to hold any in re-
serve for the purpose of buying corn
next year. While the cotton crop
is not as good as wss expected the
country will really derive more sub
stantial good from what hiss been
made than from the crop of last year
and with the almost certainty of a
fine cane crop we may anticipate a
much better business this Fall than
last, and much easier year than
this one has been.
