WASHINGTON, June 10.--The returns
of cotton planting made TO the Depart-
ment of Agriculture Indicate-a tendency
to increase of area, checked somewhat Ia
the Southwest by rains aud inundations,
and IN North Carolina and Tennessee by
low temperature in the planting season.
Replanting was still in progress to some
extent on June /, even in lower latitudes.
The apparent increase is about per cent.
1t would have been larger with a better
planting season. Comparison with the
area of the previous crop is as.folIows:

The temperature of April was lower
than the average throughout the cotton
States. The rainfall was deficient on the
Atlantic coast and slightly less than
on the Gulf, but the rains were
excessive in May throughout the South
west, causing overflows of rivers, injur-
ing the stands everywhere and causing
large amount of replanting. The latter
part of May was warm and clear on q
considerable portion of the Atlantic coast,
causing rapid growth aud afforling op-
portunity for thorough wedding and clear
cultivation. In the West the fields
are grassy and chopping out
is not yet finished. The
season is one to two weeks late. The
plants are thrifty and vigorous. The
main cause Of the relatively low condition
is want of size, which few weeks of fine
weather may remedy; yet continuance
Of bad weather would now be disastrous.

AvowED REPUBLICAN Now.-As the
Inder-Appeal says, the Democratic readjus-
tiers in the coalition convention which as
sembled in Richmond last Wednesday, OBJ
liberated the last distinction between them
selves and the republican party--a distinction
which has existed only in name, but not in
reality, for some years past. By easy stages
they'have been led first to endure, perhaps
to pity, but certainly now to embrace that
which they once held to be monster of
most frightful mien. There seems to be no
alternative left to the ambitious leaders, in
tent as they are and have been upon ruling
or running. The step will inevitably cost
them heavy loss of followers, and that, too,
at time when they have no strength to
spare. There are thousands of democrats
in the state who honestly and unselfishly
voted for readjustment as state issue, but
who have always been and are still thorough
ly democratic on all national questions. No
machine will be strong enough to drag them
from the secure moorings of their principles.
Next November will reveal a final and
complete disaster of the republican party in
this State, and leave the Old Dominion,
freed from agitation and intrigue, solidly
and irretrievably democratic. Remember
the prediction.
