Trade is rather slow in opening this
year. There are one or two reasons
for this. In the first place, the cot
ton crop is from thirty to forty days

ing all their energies to cleaning out
the fields before rain sets in. A good
deal OF cotton is housed aud is now
being ginncd, and by the middle OF
next week, the fieccy staple will prob
ably come in with rush.

10 feet inches breadth of beam, and has
