Lust Week’s Cotton Fijxiuvs.
Tbo New York Ghronicle. reports
tho cotton receipts of the seven iluys
ending Friday night, 27tli instant, at
3,299 t>ules, against 5,589 tho corre
sponding week of last year. Total
receipts up to that date, 3,930,137,
against 4,081,570 to the corresponding
date of last year—showing a net dc
Crease of 125,133 bales.
Tho interior port business of the
week was as follows: Receipts, I,BOG
bales, against 3,037 tho corresponding
week of last year; shipments, 4,421,
against 5,511; stock, 25,301, against
48,151.
The Chronicle's visible supply table
showed 2,100,190 bales of cotton in
sight last Friday, against 2,201,830 al
that dato a year ago 2,345,180 in
1875, and 3,419,040 in 1870. This
shows a decrease of 104,040 on the
supply of 1870; 244,990 0n tho supply
of 1875, and 319,444 on tho supply of
1874.
Middling uplands in the Liverpool
market last Friday were quoted at
6 5-15; last year at same date, 5 15-10;
tho year before, 7 1-10, and in 1874, Bj.
The Chronicle's reports of tho grow
ing crop arc generally satisfactory.
The weather was warm and showery,
and the plant healthful, though back
ward. Galveston reported that if the
rains cleared, picking would begin
this week. Texas, at two points, re
ports destruction from caterpillars.
Columbus, Mississippi, and Mobile
hear of them in their regions. Mem
phis reports cool weather, too much
rain, grass, rust and shedding.
Tub Cotton Futi ke. —Commenting j
oh Kllison & Co.’s circular of July 9,:
the Chronicle remarks that it shown,
the surplus in spinners’ hands to be
only 150,000, against 310,000 on the
Ist of July last year, and a consump
tion in Juno of 450,819 bales, against
409,830 bales in June, 1870, with a
total supply to October 1 of 2,403,000
bales, against 2,070,000 last year.
With regard to the’ future pros
pects, very much of course depends
upon the progress of tho European
war and upon our crop; and yet the
position of cotton is statistically very
strong, and tlio chances favor a strong
market, if not a still further advance
in price. One circumstance, however,
is working against price, and that is
the increasingly threatening position
the nations of Europe hold towards
Duo another. It does not relieve the
situation to prove that England is not
likely to become a party to the war,
bo long as she is doing what is gener
ally construed as tending in that di
rection; for her acts under such cir
cumstances paralyze enterprise almost
more than war itself. Of course while
this lasts, and so long as our crop re
ports can be construed as favorably
as they can bo to-day, European spiu
lacrs will take not a bale more than
they actually need at the moment;
and if tho political aspect continues
as threatening as at present, Euro
pean consumption will very likely bo
for a time to some small extent de
creased.—Macon Telegraph, lrf. inst.
IJiuicy or Oats.
Mr. Harris, in the April number of
the American Agriculturist, discusses
the question as follows:
In regard to whether it is better to
sow oats or barley, much depends on
climate and soil. In sections where
oats do well, and barley usually fails,
it would be unwise to sow barley.
But in those sections where the cli
mate is alike favorable for barley or
oats, and where it is a question of soil
and preparation, it may be observed:
Ist. That oats do well on an old
sod, but barley rarely, if ever, does
so.
2d. Oats ripen later than barley,
and while it is desirable to sow oats
as early as tlic land can bo got into
good condition, still you stand a bet
ter chance of a crop from late sown
oats than from late sown baric}’.
3d. Oats will do better on low,
mucky land than barley. If such
land is well drained and is in good
heart, and in fine mellow condition—
as after a well cultivated corn, potato
or root crop —a great crop of barley
fnay sometimes be grown, especially
if the land has been limed, but the
chances are altogether more favorable
for a great crop of oats.
4th. On low, mucky land, that is
only partially drained, and which
eannot be worked early in the season,
it would lie folly to sow barley.
sth. Oats will do better on heavy
clay land than bailey. This is the
rule. The exceptions are rare. The
heaviest crop of barley I oversaw was
on a field of heavy clay land that was
summer fallowed the year previous
for wheat, by three and
then not sown te wheat in the fall,
but ploughed again in the spring,
early, and sown to barley. Every
thing was favorable, and the crop was
immense.
(sth. On weedy land it is better to
sow oats than barley. Drill in the
eats deep, and nso a plenty of seed.
Ked rust proof oats are sown from
October to February in Louisiana
and Mississippi, and adjoining States,
and this crop is so extensively fed to
horses and mules, that much loss corn
iis needed than formerly. Ilesidcs, it
ils much rnoro healthy feed than coin
for domestic animals.
One pound of corn is equal as food
to about three and three-quarter
pounds of potatoes, or eight and ono
lialf pounds of cabbage, or to eleven
and one-half pounds of white turnips,
l'his it is well enough to remember.
Reports from London state that a
second year of famine in Southern
India is inevitable, on account of pro
tracted drouth. A period ot great
mortality from disease and destitution
is much apprehended.

R. Sheldon, cotton factor, of Savan-:

A horticulturist furnishes the fol
lowing recipe to preserve all kinds of
grain from the ravages of cut-worms,
birds, etc.: One pound of sulphate of
iron, one ouneo of aloes; dissolve in
water heated to ninety or ninety-five
degrees, and pour over one bushel of
grain.

The different c ditions of The .Sun during
the next year will be the same as during the
year that has j ust passed. The daily edition
will on week days be a sheet of four pages,
and on Sundays a sheet of eight pages, or 50
broad columns; while the weekly edition
will be a sheet of eight pages of the same
dimensions and character that are already
familiar to our friends.
The .Sun will continue to be the strenuous
advocate of reform and retrenchment, and
of tlic substitution of statesmanship, wis
dom, and integrity for hollow pretence, im
becility, and fraud in the administration of
public affairs. It will contend for the gov
ernment of the people by the people and for
tho people, as opposed to government by
frauds in the ballot-box and in the counting
of votes, enforced by military violence. It
will endeavor to supply its readers—a body
now not far from a million of souls -with
the most careful, complete and trustworthy
accounts of current events, and will employ
for this purpose a numeious and carefully
selected staff of reporters and correspond
ents. Its reports from Washington, espe
cially, will bo full, accurate and fearless,
and it will doubtless continue to deserve
and enjoy the hatred of those who thrive by
plundering the Treasury or by usurping
what the law does not give them, while it
will endeavor to merit the confidence of the
public by defending the rights of tho people
against the encroachments of unjustified
power.
The price of the daily Sun will bo 55 cents
a month or $0.50 a year, post paid, or with
the .Sunday edition $7.70 a year.
The Sunday edition alone, eight pages,
$1.20 a year, post paid.
The Weekly Son, eight pages of 56broad
columns, will bo furnished during 1877 at
the rate of $1 a year, post paid.
The benefit of this largo reduction from
the previous rate for the Weekly can bo
enjoyed by individual subscribers without
the necessity of making up clubs. At the
same time, if any of our friends choose to
aid in extending our circulation, we shall lie
grateful to them, and every such person who
sends us ten or more subscribers from one
place will bo entitled to one copy of the
paper for himself without charge. At one
dollar a year, postage paid, the expenses ol
paper and printing are barely repaid; and,
considering tlio size of the sheet and the
quality of its contents, we are confident tlio
people will consider Tiif. Weekly (Sun the
cheapest newspaper published in tlio world,
and wo trust also one of the very best.

THE
Atlanta €ons Li tut ion.
T TNDEE ITS NEW MANAGEMENT,
LJ The Atlanta Constitution has won
for itself tlic title of the. leading journal of
tho South. Its enterprise, during the re
cent election excitement, in sending corre
spondents to different portions of the coun
try, and its series of special telegrams from
Washington while the electoral commission
was engaged in consummating tho fraud that
placed Radicalism once more in power in
our national councils, arc evidences con
spicuous enough to prove that no expense
will be spared to make the Constitution not
only a leader in the discussion of matters of
public concern, but a leader in tlic dissemi
nation of the latest and most reliable news.
There is no better time than now to sub
scribe for a fresh and vigorous newspaper.
Albeit, there has been a quasi settlement
of one of the most difficult and dangerous
problems of modern federal politics, the
discussions springing therefrom and the re
sults likely to ensue have lost nothing of
their absorbing interest. Iu addition to this,
tlic people of Georgia aro now called upon to
settle the convention question, and in the
dissension of this important subject (in
which the Constitution will take a leading
part) every Georgian is interested. If a
convention is called its proceedings will
find their earliest and fullest embodiment in
the columns of the Constitution, and this
fact alone will make the paper indispensable
to ever}’ citizen of the State. To be brief,
The Atlanta Daily Constitution
will endeavor, by all the means that the
progress of modern journalism has made
possible and necessary, to hold its place as a
leader of Southern opinion and as a pur
veyor of the latest news. Its editorials will
be thoughtful, timely and vigorous— ei.lm
and argumentative in their methods and
thoroughly Southern and Democratic iu
their sentiments. Its news will he fresh,
reliable and carefully digested. It will be
alert and enterprising, and no expense will
be spared to make it the medium of the latest
and most important intelligence.
The Weekly Constitution.
Besides embodying everything' of interest
in the daily, tiie Weekly Constitution will
contain a Department of Agriculture, which
will be in charge of Mt. Malcolm Johnson,
the well-known Secretary of the Georgia
State Agricultural Society. This depart
ment will bo made a specialty, and will be
thorough and complete. The farmer will
find in it not only all the current informa
tion on the subject of agriculture, but timely
suggestions and well-digested advice.
Subscriptions should be sent in at once.

THE
Savannah Morning Nows
FOR 1877.
On the Ist of January, 1877, the Morning
.Y ns enters upon its twenty-sevent h volume,
and, it is hoped by its conductors, upon a
prosperous year. Every returning anui
vt rsary lias witnessed its extending influ
ence, and to-day it is the text of the political
initli ot thousands of readers. Its uniform
consistency and steadfast devotion to prin
ciple has gained for it tho confidence of the
public, thus enabling it to contribute largely
to tho triumph of the Democratic party.
In the future, as in the past, no pains
will bo spared to make the Morning News
in every respect still more deserving of the
confidence and patronage which lias been
so liberally extended to it by the people of
Georgia and Florida. The ample means of
the establishment will be devoted to the im
provement of tho paper in all its depart
ments, and to making it a
instructive and reliable medium of the cur -
rent nows. Its staff of special correspond
ents at Washington, Atlanta, Jacksonville,..
L allahassee and other ppints of interest—has
been reorganized with a view of meeting,
every possible emergency that may arise,-
and pains will bo taken to make its com
mercial news, foreign and domestic, com
plete and reliable. .
