By special telegrams received by us to night fr m the Southern ports, we are in poascs'inn of the returns showing the re oeipts, exports, &c.. of cotton for the week ending this evening, April 1. From the figures thus obtained it appears that the total receipts for the seven days have reached'46 681 bales (against 53,169 bales last week, 44.866 bales the previous week, and 66,726 hales three weeks since), making the aggregate since September 1, 1869, up to this date, 2,406,346 bales, against 1,844,490 bales for the same period in 1868-9, being an increase this i eason over last season of 561,856 bales. The details of the receipts for this week (as per tele graph) and the corresponding week of 1869 are as fellows: Ht'itm.

Dui >ng the first three days holders contin ued to feel and show great confidence in ti e m,me, refusing to make concessions, notwithstanding the free receipts at the ports, but buyers being unwilling to accept ruling rates, transactions were very limited. On Wednesday, however, the break in the Liverpool market resulted in a break here, and some lines were sold at low figures, but the offerings were limited; towards the e'use there was more steadiness, and the following day, with a falling off in the re ceipts, rates .'ere better again. To-day, under the improvement at Liverpool, the tono of the market was restored, and prices took an upward turn, closing firm, with Middling Uplands at 2240, the same as last Friday. Even running lines are very scarce aud much sought after. For forward delivery the movement has been less active at about the prices of last week. Total sales of this description reach 10,300 bales (all low middling, or on the basis of low middling, except as hereinafter stated), of which 100 halos were for March, at 211; 2.500 bales for April, 500 at 21}, HIOO at 21, 400 at 20’., 300 at 20j, 200 at 20}; 1,650 hales for May, 350 at 211, 600 at 21,100 at 20}, 300 at 20}, 200 at 20}, and 100 at 20 j ; 4,800 balps lor Juno, 700 at 21, 100 at 21 J, 700 at 2t}, 50 at2l i, 100 at 201, 900 at 20}, 1,250 at 20}, 600 at 20}, 300 at 201, and 100 Mid dling at 221; 800 bales for July, 200 at 21}, 200 at 20, 200 at 21, 100 at 21A and 100 middling at 22}; 100 bales for August, at 21}; 200 bales for October, at 18, and 150 free on board at Charleston, at 20:|. The total sales for immediate delivery this week foot ut» 11,066 bales (iucluding 567 bales to arrive), of which 3,439 bales were taken by spinners, 713 bales on specula tion, 5,700 bales for export, 1,124 bales in transit.

The Next Crop.—Our reports which are now coining in quite freely with regard to the extent of cotton planting in the South lor the coming season indicate that efforts are being made lor increased culti vation, the high prices furnishing a strong inducement to that end. The season has also, thus far, been favorable ; but it is feared that the expense of the cottou raised will be greater than the present crop on account, of tho increased competition for labor and the higher demands of tholreed tnon. Still, the plan ol giving them a share in the crop is likely to cheek this evil We suppose it is ot little us. to ad vise planters not to go into cotton too ex ten Nvly; and yet it is manilest that if they raise cotton to the exclusion of food, cotton v Ibo (key to tall in price, while hi . ff will cos: the more. In ni a Chop. —ln forecasting the future of eottou, the question of all others which is the most difficult to answer is, what will be the extent of the India crop available for export this year? It has already been demonstrated that il prices continue high a very large proportion of the crop will be thrown upon the market early through the Suer Canal, hut as to the available supply lor export there is more uncertainty, flic foliowiug tacts, however, seem to be ad mitted: First, that the extent of land under cotton is considerably in excess of last year, say at least 12 percent. Second that throughout the Berars and Cei.sr-.ti Provinces, which furnish about a fourth , I the Bombay exports, great damage ha.- re sulted from excessive rains ; but the re ports from the Dhollera Districts, which furnish about a third of the supply from Bombay, arc extremely favorable; while theGuzerut and Dharwar crop, which to gether turn out about one-third more, will prove much bettor than anticipated, and furnish a supply in ex teas of last reason, with regard to the districts which market their cotton at M uiras, Calcutta, &c., a JVnsiaerabie increase in the out-turn will be .secured. Third, that the Bombay crop is late and will be marketed late , hence, it the moasoun eem in early the Dhollera and Dharwar crop cannot all o.ime forward for . shipment this year. The foregoing, we believe, are all facts. As ro the c. iiuiates we have Dr. Forbes' report (the Cotton Commissioner), who places- the Bombay crop available for ex port at about 2,(Xf0,U00 bales. The Time*, ot India, after a very careful review of the commissioner’s report, concludes that his figures are entirely too large, and that the shipments at that point to Kurope may reach 1,350,000 bales, against 1,152,897 bales February, 1069. Some other au thorities place the figure, for this year, as low as 1,250,000 bales. But we think our friends if they will analyze tLosv facts and estimates, must roach the eooclusimi that the chauces are very decidedly in favor of a shipment in excess of last year’ supply of of least 3i)0,000 bales, and if the moo •"on ' in late, andpriccs remain high, it ui»y !<e more. But it may bo asked why, if there is to be this increased crop, do the shipmeots continue so much less than last year. The answer is we tbiok, evident. First, tbc crop is veiy late, much later than last year, and he .ee the shipments are Lter. Sec- J i end, the Berara and Central Provinces are • the districts where tbe cottou matures earliest, and therefore they furnish the earlier supplies. This year the first crop of those Provinces .as greatiy damaged, j and in part lost. Third, the high prices ! of the past wimer have drained the country j »of old cotton, drawing down the stocks to ; an unusually low point, so that now a por tion of the new cotton goes into stock. These facts fully account for the backward- | ness of the movement this year. Tbe exports of cotton this week from New York show a decrease from last week, the to’al reaching 13,360 bales, against 14.193 bales last week.

We dip the subjoined from the last number of the Monroe Advertiser : Labor—Four Years’ Trial of tue j Wages and Cropping Systems.— Editor \ Advertiser : With cotton planting, the labor supply is still the question. Tbe fact now realized, that with tbe decrease in quantity, there has beeD no improve ment in the character and quality of ne gro_ labor, is a great disappoiutment to their hopes and expectations. Having for four years had under trial two modes of working freed dcd, 1 give the following results : My farm force, upon an average, has been about six hands at standing wages— five freed men working with and under a white man, aided by myself; and about double that number living on tbe outskirts of my plantation, working on shares. In the four years, the half doien have made as much cotton, corn, fodder, hay, peas and potatoes as the dozen—ten times as much wheat, cane, pork, beef and butter, and considerable quantities of oats, rye, barley, dried fruit, etc., of which the others made none. The half dozen have kept outhouses and fencing in tolerable repair, kept opeD hillside ditches, with heavy | ploughs and strong teams turned over andsubsoiled much of the land which they cultivate, and with the aid of what man ures could he hauled out, and a rather limited supply of prepared fertilizers, have the laud under process ofimprovement. But the freedmen working for wages have been more expensive and given much more trouble and vexatiou than those “cropping-” An incredible amount of patience, forbearance and endurance especially with the man working them — have been required to get along with their conduct and keep them going at a paying rale; and the little success I h ;ve had is attributable to good fare, liberality in small matter;, promot, fair and faithful dealing with them, solf-ooutrol and some tact. Seeing there is no help for it, I submit to the following ordeal: I arouse them Irom their slumbers at the third cock crowing—when gray morn first shows her smiling face—wait long enough to gear a team of mules ; call for each one individually to start fires, etc ; attending thorn in the performance of these duties ; notify them that breakfast awaits their pleasure ; inform them of the expira tion of a reasonable time for that repast; direot them to the field, and remind them of the necessity of carrying tools to work with; follow after th ;m to shut gates, put up bars, etc.; show where and how to be gin the day’s work, while they move off, humming a matin song strikingly expres sive of indifference aud unconcern, or sounding out in bugle tones some native i , horns to be echoed beck from neighbor ing hills, and teken up by other throats with lungs as strong and clear ; when one job is finished, conduct them to the next, which otherwise would spoil half a day’s work; gather up tools, water vessels, etc., which they leave behind; inform them when their ormfort would ]>e enhanced by doffing a yarn coat, aud when it rains sug gest the propriety of donning it again; jog their memory of the desirableness of prompt attendance at dinner hour; water and feed (or seo it dooe) any stock which they may be using; gratify (be the circumstances as they may) their special propensity for leave-taking on Saturday evening; specify aud direct their atteution to tho various littlo yard and lot duties which are made their daily busiuofs; wake | them up for supper ; but, teclining to re main up for the purpose, they are not told to go to b id, hence—they never go. Most of this routine must be gone over more than three hundred times the first year, and just as often the next and all suc ceeding years. One’s time and patience are pretty heavily taxed, but under proper self-control aud conformity to the exigen cies of the times, those duties will not be more burdensome and disagreeable —while they pay— than the care, troubles and risks attending almost any other calling or voca tion in which farmers could profitably en gage. Energetic and intelligent white la borers are altogether preferable, bat these will not long remain on large cottOL-plant ing estates as hirelings; and that class of white men who are no fetter than negroes, are a great deal worse. My “cropping” hands work my best lands, and are much more intelligent, in dustrious and experienced than those I j work at wages. They make a feeble effort | to follow my example, and to work accord i ing to uiy directions; they try to do well, : and aim to succeed, and really think they are getting on “first rate;” but they don’t value time—it slips by them continually. They see no necessity for doing a thing well, and for “painstaking” they have an utter contempt. In short, except under compulsion, full, complete and tborcugh work is entirely beyond their capacity. Though tho negroes amongst us are not what we would have them be, we must take them and learn to deal with them as they are. God, in his providence, has made them such, and 1 do not suppose that any trans formaiion, coming up to our standard of perfection, will ever take place. I shall not bo surprised if the future history of the Ethiopian proves that his habits are as unchaegablc as the color of his skin. As long as the raising of cotton pays a handsome profit, we wi 1 give him employ ment, and. iu some way, manage to get along with hi* peculiarities ; but if, in the early future, the raising of cotton should cease to pay, that will be an evil day for Luffoe. 1 henodorth his tendency will be ! to where the berries grow and the small game hideth —hereabouts, iu tbe swamps Eachaconnee. Kitgiand and Secession. In my review of Governor Perry’s sketch | of Lalboun, wherein he speaks of Nullifi cation as a most preposterous, disorganiz ing doetnue, I reminded him that Massa chusetts had tried it practically with complete success. Herein she followed tbe i.'ad of the example of secession to bouth Carolina. That is to say, South t arolma saw the remedy for State griev ances without sundering the Unioo, and wou and have tried it with success had there been no division of her people upon it, and no usurpation of power to defeat it. Mas sachusetts saw the same thing, tried it, sod her people being undivided, succeeded, ! ‘ le foJfltimatc powers of the redera! Government. In 1813, Massa chusetts, fooling herself aud her cognate sister# aggrieved by the war, conceived the idea nl moving them in a body out of the l moj. She found no difficulty in uniting them in her scheme In the win ter ol 1514 they met in Hartford, Connec ticut, and completed their plan. The first -’ep in their programme was an address to Congress. A committee was charged with a:>d no their way, or before they deliv ered it, th,y heard the news of peace, and tn violation ot their trust, pocketed it for ever. In lStKj, South Carolina seeing all the powers ot. tbe Federal Government in the hands of her undisguised enemies, de ‘umi-s aa< * persecutors, withdrew from the 1'Dion. She formed no combination with other States ; she asked no aid from them ; Put nine other Statee followed her example. They met iu convention, and adopted the Constitution of 1787 in the entire, making no changes in it but such as were n eessary to accommodate it to its now ,I™Ti pb f re °f o P er *tion ; to clear up •nfr'i . clauses and to add a clause of tvA ra . D 4 to t j. elr forsaken sisters, of their ree and undisturbed navigation of the ’ P t'' , Th u ß they “‘“ffested their L he *** government in the a “u ‘heir treasonagainsttheUnited fcutes. Thus they wakened the fears of the remaining States that they meant to deprive them of tbe navigation of that river. All this was done at a time of profound peace. New Lngland'sseoession would have occurred in the midst of a war, and she would have taken sides with old England as sure as she seoeded. Ye Dwights and Goodrichs# aud your con/rmres, who are trying to persuade the i-cople of this ccn cration that secession was not the aim of the Hartford Convention, I am strongly tempted to give you the lie direct. A man to be perfectly convinced of its design, must have seen its batching and growing as I did. Must have read the newspapers of the m a icon tents published in ISI2, 1813 and 1814 ; must have heard and read the itovcrnor’s message and legislative proceed ings. (My dear old friend, tt. I. L, of New Haven, you were a democrat in those days, and have been all your life, and the Democrats had nothing to do with this se ditious conventicle ; you are too old now to search records, but request one of your sons to give us a few extracts from the Connecticut journals and State papers, go ing to show the spirit and intent of the Hartford Convention.

AS A BLOOD PIRIFIEH IT HAS NO EQUAL BEING POSITIVELY Tit K MOST POWERFUL VEGETABLE ALTERATIVE J ET DISCOVERED. DISEASES OF THE BLOOD. j “The life of the flesh is in the Blood,” is 1 a Scriptural maxim that science proves to be true. The people talk of bad blood, as ! the cause of many diseases, aad like many | popular opinions this|of baa blood is found I ed iu truth. j The symptoms of bad blood are usually | quite plain—bad Digestion—causes imper | feet nutrition, and consequently the circu i lation is feeble, the soft tissues loose their j tone and elasticity, and the tongue becomes I pale, broad, and frequntly covered with a pasty, white coat. This condition soon i shows itself in roughness of the skin, then in eruptive and ulcerative diseases, and when long continued, results in serious ksinus of the Brain, Liver, Lungs, or urinary apparatus. Much, very much, suffering is caused by impure blood. It is estimated bv some that one-fifth of the human family are effected with scrofula in some form. When the Blood is pure, you are not so : liable to any disease. Many impurities oi , the Blood arise from impure diseases ; of large cities. Eradicate every impurity from the fountain of life, and good spirits, fair skin and vital strength will return to you. K < > S K O O ! AS A LIVER INVIGORAT OR ! STANDS UNRIVALLED.

It does work its kindly, silently, and surely. The Belief which it affords is both certain and perceptible. DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER. Persons unacquainted with the structure and functions of the Kidneys cannot estimate the importance of their healthy action. Regular and sufficient action of the Kid neys is as important, nay, even more so, than regularity of the bowels. The Kid neys remove from the Blood those etlete matters which, if permitted to remain, would speedily destroy life. A total sus pension of the urinary discharges will oc casion death from thirty-six to forty-eight hours. W’hen the Urine is voided in small quantities at the time, or when there is a disposition to Urinate more frequently than natural, or when the Urine is high colored or scalding with weakness in the small of the back, it should not be trifled with or delayed, but Koskoo should be taken at once to remedy tbe difficulty, before a lesion of the organs take place. Most of the diseases of the Bladder origin ate from those of the Kidneys, tbe Urine being imperfectly secreted in the Kidneys, I piove irritating to the Bladder and Urina- j ry passages. When we recollect that medicine never reaches the Kidneys ex cept through the general circulation of I the Blood, we see how necessary it is to keep the Fountain of Life Pure. K <> S K O «> !
