C'.ottOn— It* Price* and Prospect*.
The Round Table contains a highly in
teresting article on the prices and pros
pects of cotton. It is too long for repub
lication in full, but some of the most im
portant points are subjoined:
PRICES.
Georgia cotton is first quoted in Eng
land in 1793. viz: Is. Id. to Is. lOd. for up
lands, with India cotton at lOd. to Is. 4d.
In 1799 Georgia cotton ranged in price in
Liverpool from Is. 5d. to 5s~ and India cot
ton from lid. to 2s. 4d. In 1803 the quota
tions respectively were 8d. to Is. 3d, and
9d. to Is. 2d. Between 180G and 1814 the
lowest prices at which middling uplands
were sold in England was, in 1811, viz:
12J4d, with Surats at lOJgd. The highest
prices known at any period between the
year 1800 and the breaking out of the
Southern rebellion was in 1814. when up
lands were sold in Liverpool at 23d. to 37cL;
sea island 42d. to 72d., anti Surats 18d. to
25d. Between 1814 and 1834 the lowest cot
ton year was 1829. when uplands were
quoted at 4%d. to 7d., sea island from 9d.
to 21d., and Surats from 2%d. to 5)^d.
These very low prices were no doubt caused
by the heavy imports of 1827 and 1828,452,-
240 bales being in stock at Liverpool at the
close of the former year, and 405,886 bales
at the end of the latter.
DURING AND AFTER THE WAR.
But to leave these figures for the pres
ent let hs see what was the course of prices
in this country for cotton during the late
war. Tite fluctuations in the article from
April. 1861. to July. 1861, at New York,
were only 3cents p« r pound.viz: from 12^c
tol5%c. In September of that year mid
dling uplands had risen to 22c, and in No
vember to 22y,e.; in December early, to
2S.V,c, anti on December 25, 1861, to 37c.
per”ponim. These were ali gold values, as
specie payments were not suspended until
January. 1862. The year 1861 closed, how
ever, in New York with only about 15,000
bales on hand. The article increased in val
ue very rapidly afterward,butdidnot reach
its maximum price in currency until the
23d to 25th of August, 1864, when middling
uplands were sold in New York at $1.90
per pound. The statistics of 1864 are cu
riously interesting anti at the risk of tir
ing our readers we present them. The
following table shows the per centage of
premium on gold, and the actual prices of
times in that
the total exports at different periods there
after:
1796 6,106.726 lbs. | 1831 270,979,784 lbs.
1711 61.186.0S4 lbs. 1832 322.215.122 lbs.
1816 81,747,116 lbs. 11838 595,952,397 lbs.
The following are the exports to Great
Britain alone since 1850, the total quanti
ties since I860, being computed at an aver
age of 450 lbs. to the bale:
ISM..
... 670.645.122 lbs.

. 208,000,000 lbs.

These fiigures show that in but little
more than sixty years our export of cotton
increased from about 6.000.000 pounds to
1,100,000,000—a wonderful difference, truly.

nation Appointed to meet him at the car
shed ? Who are the chief buglemen of the
occasion? Can the “respectable white
man's organ " tell us? We presume “all-
tho-talents *' party will have reporters on
the ground. Let us have the speech by all
means.
Tiik City.—Weather continues dry. Hot
days and cold nights. Very few country
jH-oplein town; they are all busy picking
and ginning cotton, or making prepara
tions to pitch their w heat crop. There is
no money. No business. Everything
thus far is in the prospective. The State
Road, which is the gTeat artery of trade—
the source from which Atlanta derives her
chief importance as a commercial point—
is doing very little. This is not unusual at
this season; but a combination of causes,
having their origin in the political situa
tion and the shortness of crops, has ren
dered the dull season more oppressive this
time than usual. Everybody is in debt,
and nobody prepared to pay until business
opens. We expect better times within the
next fifteen days.
Mayor's Court.—The exhibition in this
museum of city life, yesterday, Was an at
tractive one. The crowd was mixed, as
usual—** Black spirits and White," etc; and
it was proven, or confirmed, that spirits
had an intimate connection with the antics
of more of the attendants upon his Honor's
levee. It would be useless to specify the
different charges preferred, or name the
defendants to those charges; indeed our
space will not allow us to do so, and must
l>c content by saying that Mayor W. dis
posed Justice promptly, and the lookers on
said equitably. Several of his involuntary
visitors were evidently dissatisfied. Yet
they succumbed, and either ‘‘forked over”
or “went up." as decreed l>y tlie Court.
And in this connection we may add that
tin jH*tty character of most of the charges
preferred and adjudicated, was a noticea
ble feature of tbc session. The order of the
city is improving its standard. The fact
is palpable to the most casual observer.
June 29,1864.gold 144premium,middling
upland cotton $1.47 currency.
July 11,1804. gold 185premium, middling
upland cotton $1.68 currency.
July 21.1804. gold 158 premium, middling
upland cotton $1.03 currency.
July 28,1804, gold 150 premium, middling
upland cotton $1.62 currency.
August 3, 1864. gold 158 premium, mid
dling upland cotton $1.63 currency.
August 18. 1865, gold 158 premium, mid
dling upland cotton $1.78 currency.
August 23.1864. gold 158 premium, mid
dling upland cotton $1.90 currency.
August 23,1864, gold 134 premium, mid
dling upland cotton $1.80 currency.
September 8, 1864, gold 136 premium,
middling upland cotton $1.86 currency.
December 30, 1864, gold 127 premium,
middling upland cotton $1.80 currency.
From this it appears that between the
13tli and 18th of June, 1864, with no ad
vance in gold, cotton rose 25c per pound,
and on the 11th of July of that year, on
which day gold reached its maximum of
no less than 185 percent, premium, cotton
sold at 22 cents per pound less than it did
on August 23d, 1864, when gold was 27 per
cent, lower. On July 1,1865, the gold pre
mium stood at 40 per cent, and cotton at
44 cents per pound; and at the end of 1865
gold stood at 45 per cent, premium and
cotton at 46c.
Now, while we write, the gold premium
is about 45 per cent., and middling
uplauds are selling at 25 cents per
pound, currency, or about 17}£ cents, gold;
about the same price as was paid in
August, 1861. Of course the extraordinary
fluctations which we have named built up
and destroyed many a fortune, Gains and
losses in cotton were enormous. Hie latter
in many well known instances amounting
to no less a sum than $700 or more per bale.
Many cases are known of almost ridiculous
hardship, in some of them equivalent to a
total loss of the cotton on the part of the
planter, b}' reason of charges only, where
a Ivances had be^njmade him, other than
freight and government dues. At this mi -
mentwe are credibly informed that an in
voice of about two hundred and fitly bales
of cotton is offered for sale, in this city,
which will result in a loss to the parties
interested of more than $100,000.
THE STAPLES.
The best cotton produced in the world is
undoubtedly the growth of our Sea Island
that is. the Islands which fringe our
Southern coast from South Carolina to
Florida. The quantity of this, however, is
not important, and. indeed, this year bid
fair to be very much less than usual. But.
apart from the quantity, the best qualities
of Egyptian rank nearly as high in Liver
pool as Sea Island, and the cotton of Brazil
is nearly all of long staple and takes rank
next ,<> Egyptian. The Cotton Supply As-

hi<rh a price as the produce of the United
States.
The quantities of the four principal
classes of long cottons which were im
ported into England in 1866are as follows:
Out of a total import of 3,749,538 hales
there were 1.162,745 bales American, 407,-
65G bales Brazilian; 200.221 bales Egyp
tian, and 1.807,150 bales India. Our Sea
Island seed was planted in Egypt in 1827
and yields finely. It is a singular fact
that notwithstanding cotton had been
known in Egypt since the days of
Pliny, its cultivation had been abaiidond-
ed, and it was not until 1831 that any
energetic attempt was made to revive it.
In that year but 60 bags were made; in the
next year about 50.000; and in 1824, no less
than 140.000 bales. We have not at hand
the statistics of its recent grow th, but are
persuaded that large quantities would be
exported thence were labor more abund
ant. Egypt and Turkey togetherexported
u> England nearly 414.000 bales in 1865.
Egyptian cotton was first imported into
England in 1823, although the cottons of
Brazil were known there as early as 1781.
To these facts, at may be added that the
import of cotton into England, from all
countries, was, in 1701. 1.985,868 pounds:
in 1751, 2,976,610 pounds; and in ISoO.
56.010,732.
The first export of cotton from the Uni
ted States to Great Britain occurred In 1784.
in which 3'ear an American vessel arrived
at Liverpool with eight bales, which were
seized by tiie custom bouse authorities
upon the plea that they were not the pro
duct of this country. It was not until
1791. that any considerable quantity, namt-
ly: 189,(16 lbs- Was exported from th«*
United States. The following table <4.ows
