From the Chatlrston Mercury.
I’roftpcctM of Cotton.
The season having arrived when the Cotton crop I
is coming to market, ami pi-ices declining when
there wus reasonable ground to look not only for
their maintenance but advance, it may not be un- ■
interesting, if not profitable, to look into its pres
ent condition and pro.-pecL*. Our examination
will be confined altogether to American Cotton, as
tlie supplies from other countries are comparative
ly too small to inilneuce the course of prices. Fy
the prospects of American Cotton must all other
descriptions stand or fall.
The yenr 1845 closed with tho smallest stock of
American Cotton iu Enropo since the year 1840,
viz: 355.000 bales, against a stock of tlie previous
year of 804,000 bules—:i difference of 450,000
bales! By the best authorities it wus stated that
the stock'in the bunds of spinners in Great Britain
was also less than at any similiar period; that the
umnufactmiug interest for the last four years hail
enjoyed a prosperity rarely equalled; aud that if
production was kept up to the present extent, or
ueerly so, the nlmost entire extinction of tlie stocks
might be calculated urith arithmetical precision teilhin
a given lime, accompanied by a ruinous dispropor
tion between tho prices of the raw and the manu-
flictured article. The esthnnto of the American
crop varied from 1,800.000 to 2,000,000 bales; and
from other sources increased supplies were not ex
pected. Tlie price in Liverpool for ordinary to
good Upland was 64 to 8d, A comparative view*
of the consumption and supply of American Cot
ton forthe last three years went to confirm these
favorable expectations, thus:

There is an hour of peaceful rest
To weary wanderers given,
There is n tear forsmus uistrest,
A bahn for every wounded breast,
’Tis found above iu Heaven!
There is n soft, a downy bed,
’Tis fair ns breath of even,
A couch for weary mortails spread,
Wihere they may rest tlic-aching heud,
And find repose—ill Heaven!
There Fnitlr lifts up the fearful eye,
The heart with anguish riven,
And views the tempest passing by,
Tile eve nil] g shadows quickly llv,
And all’s serene in Heaven!
There fragrant flowers eternal bloom.
And joys supreme are given,
There rays diviuo disperse the gloom—
Beyond the confines of the tomb
Appears the dawn of Heaven!

Being a consumption of tlie entire product for the
last three yearn! There never wus more legitimate
ground for an advance, uud a -considerable one
too, in prices, than existed on the first Jonunry last,
with a stock iu Europe of355,000 bales, and in tlie
United States of 91,000, on first October; with tho
expectation of nprobable crop of 1.800,000 to 2
000,000, against un ascertained consumption of 2,
271,000 times, the price of Cotton in this market
was 8j to 11 cents.
We will now proceed to examine what are the
circumstances which have transpired, and do now
exist, to niter the prospects, nnd produce an unfa
vorable impression nnd a decline, with a proclivity
to a still farther decline in prices:
The amount of the crop is ascertained to bo
1,780,000 bales; less than the lowest estimate. But,
taking in view ilmt the deficiency is in the Gulf
States, where the bules are so much heavier, aud
llint this year there is n frilling oti iu weight, tlie ac
tual crop is uot more Ilian 1.697,000 bides, at an
average of 420 pounds. Thus is the crop proved
to be 100,000 bales less than the lowest estimate
on the 1st January last, when prospects were deem
ed so very favorable. Surely ibis fact is greatly
iu favor of'an improvement in prices.
The principal cause countervailing tho tendency
to improvement iu the prices of Cotton, has been
affirmed to be the scarcity of food in Europe, aris
ing from a deficiency in the crops, and causing n
considerable decrease in the consumption. In (lie
United States there has been au increase, and there
hns been no diminution iu tlie export of the Cotton
manufactures of Great Britain; the decrease then
must be iu her domestic consumption of alt descrip
tions of Cotton is stated to have been 644,000 bides;
and for the next six months it is estimated to be
about the same: euy fnr the year 1,283,000 bales, n
gainst n consumption last year of 1,573,000 bideiq
or u frilling off 01285,000 bules. At the same re
duction, her consumption of American Colton, be
ing last year 1,270,000 bales, would bo this yenr
1,050,000 bales. France mid tho Continent con
sumed last year 590,000 bules: allow a decrease of
80,000 bales, and it gives a consumption of 510,000
bales. With these data we cau approximate to
what is the probable consumption of American Cot
ton this yeur, allowing a decrease iu Europe Of

XiCltrr of Gen. Shields.
We transfer from tlie Washington Union of a re
cent date tlie following letter of Gen. Shields, the
gallant commander of the New York nnd South
Carolina, regiments ill the late battles near tliecity
of Mexico.
Mexico, Sept. 27, 1817 —X regret to say Quit I
am ngnin suffering under the affliction of another
wound, received at the storming of Chupnltepcc.
The wound is from a musket ball, received in the
left arm, which lias occasioned me much pain, but
my surgeons assure me the arm is safe. Eo t ntiic
lms been my recovery from the effects of the form
er wound, that nt PiKiblu 1 assumed command of
tt brigade, consisting of tho New York and Souih
Carolina volunteers, nnd tho Marine Corps, under
Lieut. Col Watson. We inarched from I’ucbla
and entered tlie valley of Mexico with un enny
amounting in all to ten thousand two hundred men.
Our march was one of extremely difficulty—over
roads broken up mid filled with rocks. We reach
ed San Align.-nm on the 18th of August, from
whence we could see the enemy’s treopa mid
works at Contreras. On the 19th I led two regi
ments—the New Yorkers mid Palmettos—across
a route that was deemed impassible by Mexicans
for everything hut goats; and joined Ihe other
forces in the night; remaining moat of tlie night
without shelter or covering, under incessant min;
aud joined iu the attack in the morning, which
earned the position, aud cut Valencia's whole force
to pieces; AU this X encountered without suffer-
idguny injury from lhe effects of my former wound.
From Contreras I joined in pursuit of the enemy
towards Mexico. Wecamc up with the body of
bis army nt Cburubusco. The cuemy’s force was
about lliirty thousand. The position was most
formidable. The fortifications wore uot only ex
ceedingly strong, but their infantry was posted
uuder cover ofumbunknieuts, which afforded them
such protection ns to enable them to fire on us with
security. Tile battle at this place was not only a
n bloody but a terrible one. The Mexicans de
termined to make it their lust great struggle, send
lhe Americans fought with desperation, knowing
that nothing was left for them but success. Here
I lost over half my command in killed and wouud-
ed.
Some of the noblest officers nnd bravest men
that ever marched to battle fell on that bloody
field. Yet we routed the whole Mexican army,
and drove it panic struck into the city; and liad I,
who happened to he in advance, only been permit
ted to continue the pursuit into the" city, I doubt
uot, from what we liavo since heard of their fright,
that they would have ruu through the city and
sought shelter in the mountains. Pence, however,
beiug the great object, it was hoped .that the mo
ment was favorable for that purpose. Snnta Anna,
however, whose whole being is a composition of
falsehood and treachery, employed the time iu pre
paration for defence, and imposed upon us the
further necessity of carrying Chapullepcc and
taking the city. This was nil done, too, iu the
most glorious inauuer. The whole American
force ou the ground, exclusive of killed and
wounded, when Mexico was taken, was less than
8000; lhe whole force employed was little more
thun G000. So, my dear friend, you mny tell tho
world that an army of between 6000 and 7000
Americans has taken the city of .Mexico, strongly
fortified, with on army of "between twenty and
thirty thons.'iud men within its walls. True, we
have suffered, mid suffered severely. Many u ,,,
noble spirit has breathed his last in thevallov of I Jm. “‘.Vri “rVi
Mexico; but the glorious results have proved to tlie :
world the invincibility of the American anus.
I have the honor to be, your friend and obedient
servant. JAMES SHIELDS.

• The X. V. Courier & Enquirer of Friday, pro-
sent# the following summary of tlie proceeding*
, of this body at itc* recent session:
J The General Episcopal Convention closed l.nst
night its important, protracted, and wearisome sen-
ooD r of which we have been at some pains to givo
onr render* full reports. The session, in spite ot
the exciting topic which was its matt* feature, was
i characterized by a remarkable desrre** ot* uhrifitian
' kindness ami courtesy. In addition to the usual
business of tlie Convention, tlie appeal of the Dio-
; eeseof New York for relief from her mtOiKinl >ui
position, brought before the Home of l>*!egalot
a matter an deliente ns it was important. This was
committed to a Joint Committee of both House.**
who reported, ns the best means of relief in the
premises, three canons: the first providing for tho
remission of judiciul sentence* i»y the House of
Bishops tho second requiring that a sentence of
suspension shall specify on what terms nnd *«. t wlmt
time the penalty shall cease; mid the third allow
ing any Diocese without u Bishop, or with n Bish
op debarred from the exercise of bis functions, to
apply to neighboring Bishops for Episcopal fiet vi
ces, or to place itself permanently under the.Epis
copal charge of any one Dioceenu or Missionary
Bi&hoo, until, iu case of a vacant Diocese, a Bishop
should be elected, or in case of a Diocc*aH under
discipline, he should be restored to Iih functions.
There canons were Ni l upon the table. Upon
the same subject,-—the relief of this Diocese,—tho
Hon. Mr. Rives, of Vo. ottered n resolution that
provision should be made for the election of a now
Bishop in any Diocese where sentence of indefin
ite suspension had been ]Kissed upon the Diocesan-
Judge Chambers, of Mary bind, also submitted h
resolution tlmt a sentence of snsnenaion does not
void jurisdiction, which would be, ns of course,
recovered by remission of tho sentence of suspen
sion. Tho first of these resolutions virtually de
clared this Diocese vacant, the second pet forth
exactly the opposite view. Both were luid upon
the table.
On the 14th day of the Convention the Hon. Mr,
Ingersoll, of Peun., ottered two canon#, the first
providing that in case of the indefinite suspension
of a Bidhop, his Diocese might proceed with n now
election ad in cape of vacancy; the second, that in
case of #ucb suspension the anapended Dathop
might be restored by the Mouse of Bishops upou
predentin" to them u petition stating the ground*
on which his restoration is asked, accompanied by
a solemn vote by his own diocesnn convention,
asking such restoration, together with testimonials
ns to purity of character mid soundness of faith
fron the same diocese nml convention and from
the House of Clerical and Lay Deputies.
Upon tin# proposition issue was joined, and tho
important debate of the session arose; the principal
speakers being the Hon. Mr. Rives, Rev. Doctor
Hawks, and the Hon. Mr. Ingersoll, in fkvorof the
cunous; Dr. Oglebv, Mr. Evans, J itdge Cham bora,
nnd Chief Justice Jones, ngninsl them. Tin* de
bate was as remarkable for its ability ;.s ith mgih.
But the canons presented by Mr. Ingersoll were
rejected by decisive majorities. Judge Chamber*
an.l Mr. Rives withdrew their resolutions on tho
ground that the sense of the llor.se had been entli-
cientlv tested by the vote on Mr. Ingersoii’# call
ow; yet many members were desirous of calling
up Judge Chamber's resolution,—to the effect
llnit this Diocese is not vacant,—Unit they might
record their opinions upou if, nnd from that quar
ter whence this desire was manifested it was ap
parent that the resolution would have been sus
tained by a very large majority. The canons re
ported by the Joint Committees were then adopt
ed by decisive majorities, and nil Amendment* •
tending to prevept their fire and manifest action
upon the case of Bishop Onderdonk were set aaade
by majorities equally decisive. Indeed the feeling
manifested by the controlling majority was not
only to avoid expressing an opinion upon the mer
its of tlic case ot Bishop Onderdonk, but to legis
late for it ouly upon general principle#. Towards
the close of tho Convention, the House of Lisliops
sent in n canon providing for the resignation of a
suspended Bishop; this wn# laid over until tqe
next convention—at no earlier duv it would liavo
been laid on lhe table.
The practical effect of all this is to remove this
case from the particular cognizance of tbc General
Convention and the Diocese of New York, and to
leave it altogether with the I lotted of Bishops.
The Courier and Enquirer has some additional
particulars in relation to the action ot the House ot
Bishops in this cose. As sonna# tho canon placing
the power to remit or modify sncli a sentence as
liis iu the House of Bishops lmd become n law, by

It would thus npiH-ar, that allowing for tho de
crease in consumption, caused mainly by the scar
city of food, mill granting that tho eject should
even continue for the year, the supply will barely
be adequate to the demand. But the Grain har
vest in Europe has been an abmiduut one, and food
is likely to be cheap and plentiful. Why, then,
upon this ground, should the prices of Cotton de
cline?
But a derangement in monetary matters in Eng
land, occasioned by heavy failures in the Corn
traJfSi. now brought forward as n sufficient ren80H
11 reduce the price of Cotton, Heavy Mures in
any branch of business, necessarily alYect all
brandies for a time, by the distrust uud alarm
which isengcudered; bui that failures in the Com
trade ought, permanently, to affect and lower the
prices of Colton a cent and a half per pound, docs
appear a singular uml unauthorised inference.
Another reason assigned is, that the present crop
will be2,5UO.OUO bales! This may be termed a po
etical license for a prouniary effect. Taking in
view the backward spring for plautiug, the inces
sant rains that have prevailed throughout the Cot
ton growing region, necessarily stimulating tlie
plant to the production of weed, rather than fruit,
and the partial injury of the boll worm and cater
pillar, an estimate of 2,200,000 bales is an extreme
oue, nxnl tliis liable to bo reduced by un early frost
to less tliaii 2,000,000 bales.
We therefore can sec no just ground fora de-
clino in Cotton. Food lms become abundant ill
Europe; the monetary mutters of Great Britain,
though now deniugeU, must, after a time, be ame
liorated. Consumption iu the V.dtcd Stutes is
largely on tho increase, aud cannot be any further
decreased iu Great Britain without proving disas
trous to her manufacturing interests, by throwing
the business intoother hands; forthe exports of
Cotton fabrics amount to more than of her entile
exports. The world must be clothed: the con
sumption of Cotton may be retarded, but must ad
vance, for there is no substitute: nnd for several
years America alone must be depended upon for a
supply. The latest accounts show that the import !
from oilier countries into Greut Britain, is even
less than last year.
The prices of Cotton for years have not remu
nerated the planter, nnd n portion of the capital J|
engaged in it has_been diverted to other pursuits. | Vinr.isix—This distinguished leader of one of our
lleuco n decline iu tho supply; and unless better
prices cun be obtained henceforward, it is likely to
decrease. That the planter has been paid less for

Gouldiug, who was one of the Georgia Regiment of i mmaring this unhappy
I'olunteeis. whilst at Vera Cruz, saw a Testament
lying among some rubbish that had been thrown
out, and picking it up, discovered, upon looking
through it, the name of “Brown,” with the uaxnbs
of the places through which hiseotnpany had pass
ed, on tlicir march to the sent of war, beginning
with Barnwell, Charleston, &c. The last place
named was the Island of hobos. It was ascer
tained lliat the owner died nt Vera Cruz. Mr.
Gouldiug put the Testament in liitr knapsack, nnd
considerately brought it back borne with him, when
his regiment was discharged, aud sent it by liis
brother-in-law, the Kev. Mr. Ileid, who handed it
to Rev. Mr. Henry, who lms. ere this, no donlit,
placed this precious memento of u dear sen, into
the hands of the pious, bereaved father, Col.
Brown, of Barnwell.
What feelings is this incident calculated to bring
up. This treasure, contaiuiug the ghul tidings of
the Giftof a Merciful God to liis fallen creatures,
thus preserved, to the latest moment of bis life, by
this young nan, receiving comfoit in Ins last mo
ments, it is reasonable to believe, from its heavenly
teachings, when no other friend was near, nnd at n
time when, although his suffering body was far
distant from those lie most loved on earth, yet he
was taught resignation to his fate, and the aspira
tions of liis latest breath must have been for bles
sings on them. May this same book be treasured
up, and may its consolations be abundantly shared
bv his bereaved family and friends.
Bishops elected by ballot, brought in a report re
commending, unanimously, that ;he Bishop “bax
leave to withdraw his papers." The report went
largely mul ably into tlic reasons for rejecting bis
demand. Among others, it is staled that there
was no reason to believe that lie bad repealed of
that of which he bad been found guilty, and that
until there should be received from him an ample
cnnlession of guilt nnd satisfactory profession of
re-pentcncc, restoration was impossible. ’J ho re
port went farther,mid aimed at impressing on the
mind of Dishop Onderdonk tlmt since the officeofa-
Bishop w.-fs given him, not for bis sake but tho
good of the Cbm ell, there was nothing left to him
but the bare “legal possibility” of being restored,
and no snch possibility as should lie the basis iu
his mind of any expectation. The report wan ve
ry strong; ami we trust will be considered as'ter-
The vote on the resolution was sixtepn to six.
The six were precisely the same Bishops “dionu
the trial voted not guilty. Two Bi drops, who
would certainly have voted with tlie sixteen, wi re

the vote would have been 18 to 6.
