The Cotton Question.
[Prom the N..T. Daily Bulletin, Nov. SOth.]
The following is communicated to ns
by a merchant of the highest standing in
the cotton trade, and whose views we
have every reason to believe are unin
fluenced by any speculative or otherwise
interested considerations. The name of
the writer, were it stated, would give
great weight to the statements and
opinions here expressed; and. without
wishing to be understood as in any way
committing ourselves to the positions of
onr correspondent, we deem tliia state
ment of the situation of cotton as deserv
ing the attention of all interested in the
trade. Those who may view the ques
tion differently can have the same oppor
tunity as onr correspondent of Btating
their views in oar columns.
RXVLECTIONS ON THE POSITION OP COTTON.
1. Is there any good reason to think
the crop will torn ont mnch, if any, be
low last year? In no quarter do we hear ef
an expected decrease except in the dis
tricts tributary to Nashville and Memphis,
whose combined receipts last year were
530,000 bales. Other sections will give
an increase, .and, in onr opinion, nearly
if not qnite offsetting the falling off at
the above named places. The yield per

before been exceeded! The season closely

MARINE DISASTER.
London,December 3.—The cable steam

fourteen rescued from the boat after
twenty-three hours’ exposure. The loss
is attributed to shipping a heavy grap
pling apparatus. The Captain, surgeon,
three other officers, engineer, seven
stewards and cooks, eleven stokers,
fourteen seamen and the whole of the
cable staff, numbering sixteen, and in
cluding Mr. Ricketts, chief electrician,
were drowned. The chief steward, who
was saved, reports that the fires were all

29th. A heavy sea carried away two of
the boats. The ship gradually settled by

The trial of Count Von Aroim will

resembles that of 1859-GO—the monster
crop year (4,675,000 bales)—and the then
best authority (Dc Sow's Review) placed
the acreage that season at 7,100,000 acres;
this yeai the acreage is 8,723,394, as per
the Agricultural Bureau report, and
9,033,823 as per the Financial Chronicle
estimate. It is well known the Bureau
figures were made up to the 31st May,
whereas plan ting continued on the Mis
sissippi bottoms till the middle of June.
Some of the bottom land “overflowed
places” this year will yield 1J to 2 bales
per acre. None of the ports expect to
get less'cotton than last year; on the
contrary, an increase is looked for at
Galveston, New Orleans and Mobile.
The acreage in cotton this year is about
the same as in 1870-71, when the out-
turn reached 4,350,000 bales. Estimates
for the yield in October and November of
that year were 3,500,000to 3,750,000 bales.
2. The probabilities are the consump
tion in this country will not be as much
as in the past season, (North and South,
1,220,945 bales). Too many goods have
been produced, the spindle power having
increased since 1870 about thirty per
cent, thus outstripping consumption;
and manufacturers are losing money, not
withstanding they are only woriring two-
thirds to three-quarters time. We cannot
compete with European manufacturers
in foreign markets, owing to the high
rates for labor, machinery, etc. Prior to
the war onr exports of cotton goods were
ten to eleven million dollars in gold value;
now they only reach about three million
dollars in currency; and yet, to fully em
ploy present machinery at remunerative
rates, we must have a foreign outlet for
the surplus geods, for the indications are
that the consumption in the United
States this year will be less than last.
3. Notwithstanding the low prioe for
cotton during the past year, averaging
8£d for middling uplands in Liverpool
and its equivalent on the Continent, con
sumption has not actually increased.
Ellison & Co.’s Circular, of November 9,
states the deliveries to spinners in the
United Kingdom for 43 weeks ending
October 31 were 2,788,725 bales, against
2,771.G30 bales last year, an increase of
only 17,095 bales, or less than f per cent.
The exports of goods and yams from the
United Kingdom for the first 10 months
this year show an increase of aoont 3
per cent., reflecting only the superior

provement iu that respect is now noticed;
the grade, however, will be mnch better
than last year, as planters have been
favored with good weather during
picking, no storms having occurred to
beat cotton ont on to the ground.
The import into the Continent is
2,094,000, vs. 1,609,000 bales last year, an
increase of 485,000 bales; deliveries to
spinners, 1,968,000 bales, vs. 1,729.000
last year, an increase of 239,000 bales,
where as the stock iB only 68,562 bales
more than last year, viz., 398,768 this
year, against 330,207 bfijes J#st season.
The difference, 178,000 bales, is ip the
hands of spinners, forming the invisible
supply; which, with 225,000 bales excess
in the visible supply at the. ports and
afloat, ns per Financial Chronicle's last
figures, brings the aggregate excess up to
400,000 bales, compared with last year,
whilst the present price is only about Ad
below the average of last year. Mr. Ott
Trumpler, iu his excellent annual cotton
circular, dated October 7, 1874, makes
the European consumption in bales 30,-
000 less than the previous year, which
proves that the Continental spinners hold
nnnsnally large stocks, impelled to do so
by the apparently low prioes of the past
season. It must be borne in mind that
after 1st January next, the labor of fac
tory operatives in Greai Britain will be
reduoed from 60 to 56 hoars per week, a
redaction of nearly 7 per cent.
Europe is not 'having an active trade
in goods, cheap bread not having pro
duced any marked improvement. Within
the past ten years labor has been better
rewarded, particularly in England, thus
enabling the working classes to clothe
and feed themselves much better than
hitherto. Some degree of anxiety is felt
in Manchester at the increase of cotton
mills in the Bombay Presidency. That
branch of business has resulted profitably
in that country, mnch to the disgust of
the home producer, thus punishing them
to a great extent for the nefarious prac
tice of over-sizing goods to have them
gain in weight, whioh, causing mildew,
has entailed a heavy loss to the buyer.
4. We axe informed the movement in
Bengal cotton is likely fo be quite free
the coming year, commencing December
1st, 1874. The exorpts from Calcutta De
cember 1st, 1873, to 30th September,1874,is
about 23,000 bales, against 260,000 same
time in 1873 f»d W7§- Many will re
member that the large impqij gf Bengal
cotton into Great Britain since the war
has led to a heavy fall in the price of cot
ton. This was the case in 1872, when
the imports into the United Kingdom
was enormous, causing a heavy increase
in the total stank, and ft M in the. sum
mer from ]ljd for middling uplands

5. If the tributaries give ns good navi
gation in December, receipts may be as
tonishingly large. Cotton dropped to 7d
twice since the dose of the war on far
less weighty reasons than we have as
signed bere; once when the crop (1867-
’63) was only 8,130,893 bales. It would
thus seem the era of high prices has

ral Bureau and by the various Southern
Cotton Exchanges, they are considered
by nearly everybody, here so much at va
riance ■with private advices that it is

Hog Packing at Louisville.—Louis-
viOe, November 30.—It appears from the
market review of the Courier-Journal
that 100,558 hogs have been marketed
hero during tliq month just closed, and
175,748 packed, against 105,000 in No
vember of last year. The market value
of the hogs packed during the month was
§3,500,000. The latest returns from the
principal packing centres of the West
show that a larger business has been done
in Louisville than in any other city, ex
cept Chicago, although last season Louis
ville was ranged by five other points.
H0BSE THIEVES 05 THE PLAINS,
Bow One Party was Pursued and Dla-
or.
[From the Leavenworth Commercial, Nov. SSL]
The night after General Sheridan left
the Cheyenne Agency a baud of horse
thieves, headed by the notorious des
perado, Jack Dunnigan, invaded the
place and succeeded in running off sev
enty-five fine Indian ponies belonging to
the Agency. Sheridan heard of the bold
exploit the next morning, and sent or
ders to Fort Dodge to pursue the thieves
as soon as possible, and when found to
'•plant them on the prairie” without any
farther ado. Acting under these orders,
two detachments started out from Dodge
hard on the trail of the flying thieves,
who, hardened by the herd of nnmsn-
ageble ponies, were making slow progress
toward the northeast. About eighty
miles north of Dodge, on the north fork
of the Pawnee, the military came u;
the thieves, who, seeing that their ti
had- evivently come, prepared to fight
the thing out to the bitter end.
There were only three of them—one
having left before the appearance of the
military with part of the ponies—but
they thought not of surrender, and
calmly laid down in the “buffalo Wal
lows” with their rifles to see the thing
ont. For nearly an hour the skirmish
lasted, and there was no let np till the
horse thieves had been riddled through
and through. Then the military captured
the ponies, scooped ont a hole in the
prairie, and literally “planted” the villains
as directed by the stem and inflexible
Sheridan. After this they returned to
the post. Meantime another party under
the direction of Agent Miles were spread
ing about the country to cat off the re
treat of Dunnigan, the chief of all the
offenders. They followed him to Hutch
inson and thence across the country to
some point near Leavenwoi th, but he suc
ceeded in escaping capture, and is now
secreted somewhere in Platte county, Mo.
Wneu Agent Miles arrived in the city
three days ago he at once got ont war
rants for the arrest of Dunnigan. and
has had the officers in search of him ever
since, bnt the fellow is a wily old fox, and
does not intend to put his head in a gov-

light let through him by the ballets of
the regulars. Agent Miles says Donnigan
is the most cunning and deliberate horse
thief on the frontier, and affirms that
§500 will readily be given for his capture.
It is not at all improbable that Donnigan
has beard of the terrible fate of his more
unfortunate companions, and pat him
self beyond the reach of the law. Most
of the stolen ponies have been recovered.
Agent Miles returned to the agency yes-
terday, having given up all hope of catch
ing his man. The above facts were ob
tained from Mr. Miles himself, and are in
every way reliable.
Shocking Murders or Two Families
by Esquimaux, in Labrador.—A private
letter from St. Pierre MiqnaloD, which
has been forwarded to the New York
Evening Post, gives the following account
of a terrible tragedy which has taken
place in Labrador: “A terrible slaughter
of human beings was perpetrate4 at the
settlement of Indian Tickle, Labrador, on
the night of the 15th instant, two whole
families, with the exception of a young
giri, being the victims. The names of
the victims are: Wm. J. Morrison and
his sons Thomas and Herbert; Robert
Morrison and his wife and sons William,
Charles and James. Mr. Morrison’s
daughter Lizzie was the only one of the
families who has survived the catastrophe.
It seems that of late gangs of Esquimaux
Indians have been committing robberies
at the huts and stores of those who held
large stocks of goods, and that after the
eaptnre of several of the Indians, they
were publicly chastised by whipping.
Their terrible revenge showed itself on.
the night of the 15th, when Mr. William
Morrison and his two sons were foully
murdered in their rooms, their bodies
being covered with dirk wounds after
they had been wounded with ballets.
Mrs. Robert Morrison's throat was ent
deeply in several places, and a bullet
pierced her brain. William and Charles
Morrison were stabbed in the breast and
also shot; but James, the youngest, seems
to have struggled hard for his life as his
corpse was found on a stair case leading
tp the itoqr, near the corpse of an Esqui

Exciting Chase or Robbers—
little Rock, November 30.—Wednesday
night last five masked men, thought to
be the Gad’s Hillers, went to a country
store on the Petit Jean river, in Yell
conjjtv, about twenty miles west of this
city, shot amj mued (.La proprietor, and
robbed tbe store! ‘They then robbed a
trading boat lying at’ the bank of the
river. TJje sjieriff 'gathered a posse and
started in pursuit. The robbers separated,
two comiug towards Little Rock and
three going in {mother direction. The
sheriff followed the two coming in this
direction, and caine across them yester
day murping sixteen miles above l]ere. A
fight ensiled, ip winch tfie sherif was !
shot and badly wounded, Byron and
Byers, both the robbers, were wounded
by the sheriff’s possa and oaptured and
brought to this city and lodged in jail
Sunday evening. The sheriff will prob
ably capture the three who went in an
other direction.
An Awkard Mistake.
[Fr.m the Adrian (Mic .) Press.]
The following very singular occurrences
took place at Flint and Mount Morris
simultaneously on n recent date, the truth
of which is well vouched for: Two per
sons, one a white man the other a negro,
died at points distant from their homes;
tho bodies were forwarded to their
friends, and the coffins in the course of
their transit came aboard the same train,
whence they were delivered at the re
spective stations. The funerals at each
place were in waiting; the colored peo
ple received tbe body of their fallen
brother, and tbe mourners sadly followed
it to the church, where they listened to a
pathetic discourse. When the speaker
had concluded his sermon the coffin was
opened, and, horror of horrors, the sable
African was found to be bleached ont
perfectly white. The short crisp hair
had given place to the long straight locks
of the AngloBaxon, the features were
European and tho general semblance ’
that of a fnll-blooded white man. The
consternation, horror and superstition of
tho distressed monmers and friends of
tho departed colored man were boundless,
as they gazed with amazed countenances
upon the face of the dead, so suddenly
and unaccountably metamorphosed into
ths^jotid white man. That was at Flint.
As soon as reason could assert its sway,
it became evident that there most be a
mistake somewhere, and that the right
man had somehow got off at the wrong
station, and the corpse was immediately

eminent ban grown
been deeply im
of that which
boxed np again and carried back to the
depot, where it was ascertained that at
the time of the delivery of the coffin to
the colored mourners there were two
coffins on board, and the corpses had
merely been exchanged. At Mount Mor
ris a scene was enacting similar to that
described at Flint; at the close of the
services the monmers gazed with agon
ized features upon the horrible spectacle
before them. In the coffin lay, not the
form of the loved friend whose funeral
services had thus far been perfomed, bnt
that of a stalwart negro! The feelings
of the afflicted relations and friends can
be better imagined than described. Mat
ters, however, soon became understood,
and a telegraphic dispatch was receive! 1
from the managing officer of the Flint
and Fere Marquette Railway explaining
things. The corpses were exchanged,
and representatives of both nationalities
finally had the satisfaction of receiving
their own dead for interment. The ap
parent fearful discoloration of the white,
and the nnaocoontable bleaching-out of
the colored man, was now no longer a
mystery, and the friends were relieved of
any snperstitionsanxiety that might have
attended -the circumstances. The bag
gage-man, whose gross blander in the die-
livery occasioned the difficulty, was
promptly discharged.
It Won’t Do.—Certain partisan papers
are just now engaged in the rather hope
less task of malting capital for the Re
publican papers ont of the recent va
grancy laws passed by the Texas Legisla
ture. It is notorious to every one who
is acquainted with the real condition of
the Sooth that the more idle of the ne
groes have everywhere deserted tbe plan
tations and have thronged the cities and
large towns. They cannot be induced to
work ao long as they can live by begsrary
and theft; and the number of these
vagabonds is constantly increasing. Ef
forts are made here and there to enforoe
against these idle and destitute negroes
the provisions of vagrancy laws, which
compel them either to go to work on
their own account or to be employed on
public works. Now, the fact of the un
willingness of the negroes to earn an
honest living by hard work is the curse
of the South is beyond donbt, and it will
be useless to attempt to create capital
here at the North by denouncing all
efforts to rid the Southern cities of va
grancy and theft as so many efforts to
revive slavery. The Republican party
ought to have learned by this time that
it cannot live on the animosities of a war
that has been over for ten years, or upon
a sympathy for the negro founded not
upon facts, but solely upon the color of
his skin and the memory of slavery. The
conviction is widespread that the South
ern negroes have not conducted them
selves since emancipation any better than
have the Southern whites, and while
there is a disposition to hold both to a
strict obedience to the laws, the old
hatred of the rebels and the old admira
tion of the negro can no longer be used
to win votes at the North and to retain
power for the Republican party.—N. T.

A Farmer's Feet Roasted to Maee
Him Give Up His Money.—A daring
robbery was perpetrated about six o’clock
last evening at the farm honse of Mr.
Joseph Breed, of Troy township, about
five miles from this city. At the hoar
mentioned four masked men
entrance' to the honse, which was peremp-
torily refused by Mr. Breed, who suspect
ed something was wrong. They imme
diately burst tho door open, and seizing
Mr. Breed, tied him with a rope to the
lounge. They asked him where his money
was concealed, and he said he had none.
Then they pat his feet in the fire to com
pel him to disgorge, which was of no
aviuL as he had little or no money in the
honse. Upon searching his pockets they
took between thirty and thirty-five dollars
and then ransacked the honse. While
they were thus occupied, Mr. Breed re-
leased himself and alarmed the neighbors,
and the honse was in a short time sur
rounded, bnt the robbers had fled. Mr.
Breed and his nephew (racked the bnr-
glars to this city, arriving here about 12
o’clock last night. The old man reported
the particulars to officers Kane and Har-
denburg, who, having a full description
of the parties, may possibly succeed in
captaring them before daybreak. Mr.
Breed is suffering intense pain from the
bums on his feet, and retired to the
Johnson House, as he was unable to re
turn home. It seems the robbers first
inquired for the son of Mr. Breed, who
was absent at the singing school, and it
is not yet known whether Mrs. Breed was

A Fatal Thanksgiving Day Accident.
—A crowd of men in fantastic dress pa
raded the streets in Hoboken, New Jer
sey, on Thursday, and while passing, a
small cannon was brought out and several
salutes were fired. A numberof children
amused themselves by running in front
of the cannon, and were ordered away.
John Sweeny, aged 14, disobeyed the
order, and ran before the cannon jost as
it was fixed. The result was his right
