Expressed no unkind feeling for his brother only said lie thought it Would do him good. This was on. Sunday morning after the death of Mr Reuben Armor. He sig nified that his brother had done wrong but did. not say what he had done. Hs staid he said that night at his brothers or brother in laws. I believe they live close to aether, do not know however, said he knew nothing of the affair till that morning. Said I think that Kitchens sent him Wortl:—can’t be positive, if he said he staid at his brother's or borther in law's, it was with one of them. There was noth ing said by which he might think that suspicion attached to hiui. lb* Armor can give no reason why in the courts of conversation he locat'd himself that night.

He .did not tell me that Hell would be to play thero that night and not to stop. I was feeble and could hardly rirte. I know that I have related the conversation, as it secur ed and I did not* tell Ketcheus or Mr. HawkiiiH otherwise cither. Croat.—Mr. Dewitt Armor spoke to me as a friend and I took him at his word and never stopped. 1 never spoke with Ruben Armor bnt twice in my ilfe to know him. I stopped at The Financial and Commercial Chronicle of last Satin-day gives the total cotton receipts of tlie seven days ending last Friday night, 15th, at 110,010 bales against 130,705 bales last week, 1*20,465 bales the previous week, and 113,148 bales tlivee weeks since, making the total receipts since the 1st of 8cptemlw3Kyl7‘2, 887,5HK bales against 0(1(5,f(Off bales for the same period of 1871, showing an in crease since September 1st this yeas of 2‘20,080 bales. Tlie New York mar ket during tlio week was fluctuating and unsettled with a nett decline of a quarter up to Monday, which was recovered on Tuesday, Wednesday, , and Thursday, under the stimulus of Dewitt Armors to open the gate to j t ], e H^ht receipts, and closed dull on lead through; ho was about 10 paces Friday night with the advance bare ly maintained.
