Thk Cotton Cjihi* Full 186(5. About
tho best estimate, in our opinion, we hive
seen of the crop of cotton that will be real
ized this year, is as follows :
Term, 250 000; Alabama, •_ > _ , 0,000;
Louisiana, 140 000; Mississippi, 210,000;
Georgia, 110,000; Arkansas, 100,000;
iSouth Carolina, 70,000; North Carolina,
50,000; Tennessee, 70,000; Florida, ii*,
000. Total, 1,300,000.
Os right, this ought to bring— eYery
pound of it—net 45 cenfa to the planter—
aggregating to £231,000,000 for the whole
country. It will turu out, however, that
Mr. Yankee, some bow or other, individu
ally, or corr..'.rationally, or collectively, or
nationally, will g.t the* bigger half ot all
this e 0 , am) the poor South will have t'>

de! t Johnson, in sutultv proclamations in
which no nt.'iit; m is made oi'W.st Virginia,
has thereby ignored tho existence of such a
State. Vhy ho permits the people of tlu s

without even a protest, strikes us as sotne
