OF the calamity which such an event
would bring upon Lancashire, every
effort WAS made to discover now
sources Of cotton supply. But, al.
though, the powerful association
formed for the promotion of this end
searched every nook and corner of
the cotton zone, and send seed to
every ono in the four continents,
willing to experiment, they entirely
failed to accomplish the laudable OBJ.
ject they had in view."
Mr.. Ellison further tells us that
while the exceedingly high prices
during tho war did considerably in
crease foreign shipments Of cotton,
that this increase declined almost to
it's norma! bed IA soon as the price
of Gotten fell to Is cents or 80 cents
per pound. If no action is taken
and this crop is sacrificed at present
or probably lower figures in the next
four months it will fall far short of
paying for tho cost of production
The cotton growers will be impover.
ished, the country stripped Of means
and every bnsine~s interest must suf-

and any other plan to reduce the
crop, is the mrrcst twadhle. The

Richmond, September 25.-The
statements that have been made that
the engagement between the late Miss
Winnie Davis and her affianced was
broken off on account Of some politi-
cal objection TO the home Of Mr.. vii.
kinson, do not accord with what was
understood to bo the explanation
made hero by that distinguished
lady's mother.
Mrs. Davis has discussed the sub
ject of her daughters: engagement
with but few persons here, and those
were the closest and most intimate
among her old wartime friends.
TO ono of those it ia understood
that Mrs. Davis declared that the
only reason for revoking tho engage
ment with Mr. Alfred Wilkinson was
purely personal matter. But for
this there is no doubt the marriage
between this gentleman and the
daughter of President DAVIS would
long ago have occurred.
The gentleman is spokan. Of by
Mrs. Davis friends in the highest
terms Of praise. ....
There is much interest manifested
here and elsewhere probably, to
know whether the family of tho gen.
tleman to whom Miss Davis was en-
gagged sent any floral designs to the
funeral. If this was done, it is not
known to any Of Mrs. Davis friends,
or those who had charge Of tho ar
rangements Of tho funeral.

Mrs. Jefferson Davis prefers to make

Of going to Colorado Springs, and

The reason is this: Mrs. Davis suffers
from some affection of the heart, and
believes tho great latitude Of the
springs would prove an injury to he,
health were she to reside there. Mrs.
Hays will remain with her. mother
eome little time in New York before
