Telegraph & Messenger. SUNDAY MORNING. AUGUST 6, 1871. Cotton PronipecUi and Necessities The reader will find somewhere in this edi tion n very interesting editorial on “The Cotton Prospect,’’ taken from the New York World, of the 2d instant. The World scontt at short crop stories, and looks for a crop of 3,700,000 to 4,800,000 bales as this snmmer’s growth. Ho is Willing to admit that half a million to seven hundred thousand bales of the crop of 1870 wero due to the extraordinary length of thema- tnriag season, and his anticipations are ovidently based npon the possiblo (.abstraction of that Amount from tho growing crop. But even with a yield of a little short of four million bales, tho increase of consumption re sulting from enlarged manufactnring facilities in Europo will probably result in the reduction of tho surplus shown at tbp end of this year, by 1,100,000 bales at tho end of next year; and the World then very suggestively demands how much that would leave to go into the next year? We commend the whole article to the close attention of the reader; as it probably reflects a good deal of current intelligent opinion in New York on this interesting subject. It ap pears under the general editorial head of that Tire Traction Engine—Xo. 2.
