THE COTTON TRADE.

London Opinion as to Consumption and
Prices-ReQuirement of Spinners.
From the London statist
The position OF the cotton trade is just
now an interesting one. At the present
time the price Of cotton, taking middling
uplands as the representative staple, is I'd
per ID. Compared with year ago this
figure is nearly Id per ID, or over ii per
cent. above the quotation then current.
The rise in prices has been in face OF the
largest American crop OF cotton yet gath
cred, and, moreover, a crop greatly exceed
ing the highest estimates.
The reasons for the advance and the
consumption OF the large American crop
have been various. First, we have the
fact that the present year has witnessed a
considerable improvement in trade, as
shown in the following table of the guam
tity Of piece goods, with the values OF ex-
ports for eight months to 3lst OF August,
taken from the board of trade returns:
yards 3,S2S, 2iJOO 5O5l ,1S5
lssI...... 3,2Ooi b526OO 3JS9o,3il
3,l932lS&O G3269,5l9
The exports OF yarn and twist have also
increased considerably having been in
the eight months
l69,7sl000 f7,72l SOC
lhSI.... l0H,bsl9OJ I2b2Sl
i7O2676OO 7,72l $40
From these tables twill be seen that the
exports OF piece goods for the eight months
have been 100000 yards more than in
the corresponding period Of 1887 while
the exports OF yarns have also increased
over 10000, 900 pounds. Next, the whole

EXTRA DEMAND FOR THE RAW MATERIALS,
which these figures show to have been

THE STATE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY
AND A STATE FAIR.

Special attention Is called to the cir-
cular OF the State Agricultural Society
which is published below. The Exc
cutive Committee of the Society is to
meet at Baton Rouge on the 28d inst,
and two questions of great Importance
to Monroe and Ouachita parish will
be considered aud acted upon. They
are, first, to determine upon the time
and place for the meeting of the So-
ciety, and second, to determine upon q
place for holding q State fair.
II Monroe had been represented at
the last meeting of the Society at
Shreveport It would have been selected
as the place Of meeting this year, but
the Society adjourned without selecting
. place and q meeting is now called to
settle that matter, which we take as q
special favor to Monroe and an invita-.
ton for her to reach out and grasp the
prize. There Is no estimating the
benefits to he derived from the meeting
Of the Society here. A boom Is spread
Ing out over Louisiana aud 80 far this
section has been In q measure left be-
hind Representative men, not only
from all over this State, but from other
States, will be In attendance and no
better opportnnit will be given Us to
advertise our resources and advan-
tages.
The second proposition, the select-
ion Of Monroe as the place of holding
the State fair, as possibly frought with
still more Importance. Those who
have attended fairs Will readily see the
advantages to be derived. In the first
place the city will be crowded with
strangers and that means money In the
pockets Of the hotel keepers, the stable
keepers, the merchant and the labor
ing classes generally. Secondly, as in
the case OF the meeting of the Society
here, our advantages aud resources
Will be advertised, but Ia better way.
For instance the outside world does not
know what a wonderfully rich and
productive soil we have; II does not
know what q fine timbered country It
q Il does not know what splendid
stock conntry II Is I; II does not know
10 what extent truck farming is enxag-
d IRend how remunerative II is. An
