Citton has reached tlie lowes-t prirtj on record, and in tbe last three wet-ks tbe members of the Liverpool Cotton Exchange were compelled to And a million and a hslf pounds to settle the liiTerence on the wrong side. The cotton trade lias been completely lemorulized by tbe heavy fall in prices of raw material, .Many large Lancashire mills have inrurred serious losses as the result of their operations during the part three months. Iu the case of the Star Mill, 101,388 swindles, tbe deficit was 4,090, while that of the Woodstock, 73,308 spmdles, was 09 K . .: SPECCLATION I TVTCSES.. A considerable percentage of- these losses may be set down as due to speculation in futures on the part of the directors who did not foresee the downward movement, which has resulted in a fall to the l?vel of prices in i845,when middling ?nNew Orleans was quot s? at 3d.; and the stock iu Europe reached I,219,0O) bales, or 207 weeks' consumption. : M. Fafcb, well known here as an authority, thinks the cheapness of American will drive other growths out of the market and deal a crushing blow to the Indian cotton tradet which is now worth about .5,000,000 a year against over '30,0'J0,000, which represents the value of imports. from the LTrdtek itates. In the '40's such result was produced, but it is not now believed tlwt Egypt and India already serious rivals of the tfnit-ed States as cotton producing countries will be perma nently affected. CROP ERTIMATTS. . Considerable difference of opinion exists in the trade as to the probable future course of prices. Everything, of course, depends upon the crop estimates, which are so divergent !Tr. Charles TVilHams, of the firm cf Charle-: & George Williams, gotton brokers, repre sents that section of the community whose views are that the crop will not exceed 8,100,000 or 8,200,000 bales, and that the high est estimates are exaggerated. FKAttS CF A TANIC. Liverpool men have suffered terriMy owing t- the fall, as much as 100.000 having ben paid in differences during a single week . Feara of a panic are entertained by many should the bears continue to squeeze their opponents as they have been doing. One of the oldest brokers on 'Change said: ''The best and largest houses are asfonnded at the magnitude of tbe crop, coming as it does upon th heels of one which in itself topped previous records. The striking day is looked forward to with anxiety eack week and J think we shall have a further fall be tor? Easter." Mr. Richard Marsden, of Manchester, thought the crop would be 9,000,000 bales.

(By tbe way, just what I want done).. When once we have onr roads In good condition our taxes will measurably cease, for we will have no costly bridges to keep up. Now.here is the pie I want to pnt in your ears give grudgingly orders for tbe construction of any costly bridges this year, so that we can start even in this reform movement But you may extend the bridge near TV. O. Bennett's or have it lowered so that abuttments may be put to it, so we can have tbe use of it while rotting down. Another thing, I hear it hinted around that some of you do not want a second term. My dear sirs, do not give a thought to such an idea, for we have just got you tutored so that you know somewhat yonr duties concerning the public weal. Now to lose you, and all my instruction to go to nanght, 1 cannot for a moment entertain the throught Once more, bave we not more bridges across Lanes creek than the county ought to be taxed to keep up? Is the one at old Lanes boro a public necessity! It is the most costly bridge in the township and only about a nrtte or two from tbe county line, with a good ford. Let the bridge at Caudle's mill be kept la good repair and but very few liv ing on tbe north 6ide of the- creek will be in convenienced by tbe discontinuance of the first named bridge. Now some of the ex tremely selfish will give me fits on this last suggestion, but I can stand it if they can. . Now," Morven and Lanesboro, you have had all your costly bridges built by the coun ty at large, and heretofore we have never complained, but seeing the extreme selfish ness you manifested .last year makes me rather selfishly inclined. If I cannot have county pride, I will at least try to have town and township pride, like you, so you will see who in the long run will be most benefitted bv such selfish views. t Poplar Hill is increasing her 'population since I last wrote yon.
