From the 1st of September, 1881, to date, there have been sold on this market, accord ing to the books of Weighmaster Barron, 2,142 bales of cotton.

Among the interesting rumors floating around Washington, concerning North Carolina affairs, is one that Dr. Mott has an eye on the United States Senatorship to succeed Gen. Ransom.

We learn that Messrs. Heyer and Fen nell will commence the work of canvassing without delay, and it is to be hoped they will succeed in securing subscriptions to a sufficient extent to assure the success of the enterprise.
