THE COTTON CROP.
Planting Late-Cause of the Delay-Tht
Outlook.
lBy telegraph to the Dispasch.l

lBy telegrdpn W INC Dispdtcn-l
WASHINGTON, d. O., May 9.-The cotton
report of the Department of Agriculture
for May relates to the progress of planting.
The proportion of the proposed breadth
already planted on the LIST of May was IT'S
per cent. which is less than the average of
a series of years. Many correspondents
report planting one to two weeks late,
especially late in North Carolina and Ten
nessee. Fully one third Of the area is yet
TO be seeded north of the Gulf States.
From Georgia west to Texas tie State
averages are only 2 or 8 per cent. The
figures are as follows: Virginia, 40 per
cent. North Carolina, 63 per cent. South
Carolina, rs per cent. Georgia, so per
cent. Florida, % per cent. Alabama, so
per cent; Mississippi. n per cent; Lou
isiana, 70 per cent. Texas. 10 per cent. {;
Arkansas, 66 per cent; Tennessee, II per
cent. The delay is due in all sections of
the cotton belt, to excessive rainfall in
February and March which made early
ploughing impracticable, and to very
general deficiency in April. rendering the
soil dry and cloddy and hindering germina-
ton. The seed-bed, as rule, has been i'm
perfectly prepared, and is in relatively poor
condition. Reporters intimate, as result
Of the unfavorable spring, that reduc-
ton Of the acreage may be expected. This
may deperd somewhat on the opportunity
for completing the area during this month
and the prospective profits OF q large
breadth of cotton.
