The Cotton Crop.
Wright’s New York Cotton Circular of 28th
Feb. sajs the total amount of co t m received
at the principal porta of- the United States,
since tee close of the war, is in the ne'ghbor
hood of 1,750.000 bales, as known, to Feb.
24i.b; of which amount, over 400 000 bales
have been received since Jan Ist, the period
at which, according to preva ling est'matos in
September and October, ’65, receipts were to
cease. The falling off in receipts at New Or.
leans and Mobile, noted for the week end.ng
Feb. 16:h, will no doubt be mere prominent and
constant.
At the Atlantic ports tho receipts have con
tinued free —from 8 000 to 10.000 bales a week
to the astonishment of those who asserud
that there was no cotton toe me 'orwaid after
Jan. 1, 1806. Whilst Mr. Wright considers
the supply from the main sources as pretty
well txbausted, fce thinks that both tho ALn
tic and the Gulf ports have still to receive a
comilcrabie quantity of cot’on, chiefly from
remote quarte s, and from po n s defend nt cn
high waters for transportation. lie consider
the general stock on sa'e and offered, as small
compared with tho apparent stock.
The Next C utton Crop.
In the March number of Deßow’s Review, tlio
editor, who has just completed a tour through
the cotton States, estimates tho next cotton crop
at not more than one million five hundred thou
sand bales. He adds: “These figures are not
likely to be increased by anything that is now
to happen, and may be greatly reduced by tho
ignorance, neglect, or desertion cf the laboring
forces, which, judging from ihe experience of
all other countries, is more likely to occur than
not, and reduce the crop to million or me
million two hundred thousand bales. No ac
count is taken in the calculation, of tho applica
tion of white labor to cotton, beyond what was
applied to it beforo the war. The exten ivc
mortality of the war has made white labor at.
the South very scarce ; so far it is absorbed in
the necessary pursuits of the mechanic arts and
trade, which furnishing much lucra
tive employment. The wear and tear, and
frightful destruction caused by the war, opened
other channels of employment besides agricul
ture. The increase of white labor at the South,
so far as the next crop is concerned, from immi
gration, is too trifling to be taken into account.
The aggregate number of laborers introduced
is insignificant, and so far is largely absorbed in
the cities.”
New and Dangerous Counterfeit. —Within
a few days, says the Louisville Journal , a splen
didly executed hut spurious SSO Treasury nose
of the new series, 1863, has been circulated in
this city. The note was evidently engraved and
printed by an experienced bank-note worker.
The only variance from the genuine bill of the
same denomination i3 in the signature of the
Treasurer, which is rather coarser than the
original. We have never seen so perfect an imi
tation of money. On this account it is very
dangerous, and our merchants and bankers,
several of whom have been already duped by
this new issue, should keep a sharp lookout.
Our police officers aae no.v endeavoring to fer
ret out the counteifeiters.

The New York Sun notes that last week the
decline in wholesale prices was greater than in
any week since the present downward movement
commenced, and says:
Standard domestic manufactures, in the dry
goods market, receded in prise about twenty per
cent., and the average reduction in imported
goods was probably not less tlmn twenty-five
per cent. Even at these reduced rates the sales
were very meagre, and it is quite probable that
the decline will continue during the present
week. In other branches of trade there has also
been a material reduction in prices, although
the per centage of decline has not been so uni
form as in the dry goods market. It is evidenf
that prices are now rapidly gravitating toward
real value.
Stephen Girard, than whom no shrewder bu
siness man ever lived, used to say: “ I have
always considered advertising liberally and long
to be the great medium of success in business
and the prelude to wealth. And I have made
it an iuvatiable rule, too, to advertise in the
dullest times as well as the busiest, long ex
perience having taught me t 4 hat money thus
spent is well laid out; as, by keeping my busi
ness continually before the people, it has se
cured me many sales that I would otherwise
have lost.”
The Negro Before the White Man. —Not
less than four hundred widows in this city are
applicants lor aid from the Bangor Fuel Society.
Bangor has a population of less than 17,»'00,
and is largely in favor of the national nigger
boarding house, and goes in considerably in
contributing m >ral pocket handkerchiefs to the
gorillas of equatorial Africa, but has no lime
left, after getting through with such philan
thropic labors, to attend to its own starving and
freezing white widows. —Bangor (Me.) Whig.
Eclipse of the Moon. —An eclipse of the
moon will take place on the 3Uth and 31st of this
month. The beginning of the eclipse will be at
9:30 in the evening; beginning of the total
phase 10:37 ; middle of the total phase 11:27 ;
end of the total phase 31st of March, 12:16 a.
m. ; end of the eclipse 1:21 a. m. ; duration of
the total eolipse 1 hour and 30 minutes; dura
tion of the whole eclipse 3 hours and 52 minutes.
The phenomenon of a total eclipse occurs so
seldom, wc hope the night of the 30th will be
clear, in order that the event may be witnessed.
Daniel Webster was right when lie remarked
of the press: “Small is the sum required to
patronize a newspaper; amply rewarded its pat
ron, I care not how humble and unpretending
the gazette he takes. It is next to impossible to
fill a printed sheet without pulling into it some
thing that is worth the subscription price.’*
Mr. James Preston, one of the largest peach
growers ot Southern Ohio, informs the Galli
polis Journal that the crop for this year is gone
killed bv the recent cold weather. What is
said of the peach crop in Southern Ohio may
also be said of the crop in other sections of tho
State. Fears are also entertained for the small
er fruits. Similar reports come from Illinois
and Missouri.

The San Francisco Alta says thatthe cod-fishe

such importance as to warrant the conclusion

Gen. Miller, the new collector of the port es
