COTTON FACTS.
Visible Supply—Ucroifris at Ports—Weather, Ete.
The New York Financial Chronicle of Novem
ber 27 makes the total visible supply of cotton
2,487,588 bales, an increase as compared with last
year oi 67,569, a decrease^as compared with 1884
of 115,555, and a decrease tip compared with 1883
of 213,135.
For the week ending November 26 the receipts
at the United States ports reached 280,262 bales,
making the total since September 1, 2,437,874
bales, showing a decrease of 12,592.
The twenty-six interior towns for the week end
ing November 26 received 176,382 bales, shipped
147,484 and had stocks of 367,078 bales. 8ame time
lost year they received 187,422, shipped 156,278 and
had stocks of 340,405.
The above totals show that the old interior
stocks have increased during the week 27,581
bales and are to-night 29,147 bales more than at
the same period last year. The receipts at the
same towns have been 12,449 bales less than the
same week last year, and since September l the

The exports for the week ending this evening
reach a total of 186,463 bales, of which 130,066 were
to Great Britain, 9715 to France and 46,682 to

The Chronicle comments on its table of re
ceipts from plantations as follows :
The above statement shows—1. That the total
receipts from plantations since September 1, 1886.
are 2,755,892 bales; in 1885 were 2,749,837 bales; in
1884 were 2,755.369 bales.
2.—That, although the receipts at the outports
the past week wore 280,262 bales, the actuul move
ment from plantations was 309,160 bales, tin* bal
ance going to increase the stocks at the interior
towns. Last year the receiuts from the planta
tions for the same week were 291,069 bales and for
1884 they were 322,286 bales.
lu the table below we give the receipts from
plantations in another form, and add to them
the net overland movement to November 1, and
also the takings by southern spinners to the
same date, so as to give substantially the amount
of cotton now iu sight.
in amount in sight to-night as compared with
last year, is 19.015 bales, the increase as compared
with 188-1 Is 40,335 bales aud the increase from
1883 is 12,427 bales.
The Chronicle's telegraphic weather reports for
the week are thus summarized:
Our telegraphic reports to-night indicate that
the temperature has been somewhat higher at
the south during the week. Picking has been in
terrupted by rain in a few districts, but otherwise
A MURDER IN MERIWETHER.

Commencing next Tuesday, December 7th,
DeHaven’s Great Two-Ring Ten Cent Circus will
begin a series of performances in this city. It
waa with some difficulty that a space of ground
sufficiently large for the immense spread of can

cent circus last year was too small, and Dellaven
finally rented the vacant lots just north of the
Columbus and Western Railroad, and on Ogle
thorpe street. The show has a fine Menagerie
attached to the Circus. It is said to be the best
ten-cent show now traveling.
