THE report of the New Orleans Cotton Elk
change for January shows total export of
1,34S, 451 bales, as against 1,7O4, $50 bales for
the corresponding month of last year. The
total takings Of Northern spinners were l, 1877,
592 bales, as against 931, 642 bales in January,
1885. This shows gain of 2O5, $50 bales for
the United States, and falling off in the ex-
port demand of 355, 929 bales. According to
the Louisville Courier Journal, all this cotton
should have gone to British mills to be manu-
featured, the pay for which to be taken in
trade.

will receive our most hearty support. But
we take occasion to say that the organization
of ''secret league" is very peculiar way to
obtain these good things. Nothing salutary
in politics was ever accomplished by ''secret
leagues" What politics and political meth
DDS need is to have the light turned on as
much as possible-to be as open and above
board as can be, in order to enlist the interest
and command the confidence Of the general
public. What has affected our local politics
is too much 'fsecret league" business, and the
Journal begs to say that there can be nothing
but distrust Of this new-fangled plan to
tpurify politics." The 'tsecret league" would
better be abandoned as soon as possible. The
way to purify politics is to turn on the light
and get all the people into open leagues.
