The Weekly J E Latham Cotton
Letter
- Special to Journal. ,
GreetiRboro, N. C, April 7 The week
. just passed has been devoid of any par
ticular feature and the future market
closes with May 11.19 and July 11.15,
this Is only fourpointa Ihigher than the
cloge last Saturday,
i . Interest in the market by outsidei
is at low ebt, as witness the trading in
New York yesterday is estimated at
onlp 75,000 bales for the day. "
; Preparations for.Uhe next'erop are
going forward as rapidly as the weath
er and conditions of land will permit.
but the outlook ia not as bright as it was
three weeks ago. 1
.! A large acreage will be pitched; of
' this there Is no doubt but this does not
necessarily mean a large crop will be
gathered, and. it is this doubt that is
causing nervousness in the fall op
tions.":; ' V '-i. :-: l ''.-I-: ..rr
A short while back it was popular ti
sell October and December at anything
above ten cents; but thia has proven
sinceyery unpopular and expensive to
those that indulge-as the buyers were
large mills in New England and Europe
that bought futures against sale of
their manufactured product and they
are not ' easily- frightened under these
circumstances. - ' v.
. . Gne other fact is very potent; and
that ia; generally conceded that a crop
' of 12 million bales will be gathered next
year to prevent higher prices than we
have yet seen and we have never but
once raised so large a crop and have no
' assurance that we will raise so large a
crop this year. 1
The good grades of cotton are fast
disappearing and present holders are
'Certain of getting a good price during
, tlio remainder of the spring and sura
imor, wit t favorable wealhei we look
for no important decline and with bad
waalher we predict rmnh higher pri
ces. " j ' '

by its thirty thousand inhabitants. The
people were brought to Naples by

Similar means of transportation are
being employed to bring away the peo

tance Bro. M. Bradshaw, our beloved
P. E., and Bro, D. JDelotch, a worthy
local preacher of Mt, Olive, N. C. Bro.
Bradshaw remained with us two days,
yet in that brief time he deeply stirred
the hearts of the people, and set them
thinking over , the problem of . their
soul's salvation. , He has eminent gifts
and qualifications that fit him for the
ministry. - Affable and sociable in man
ner, he draws tha people to him. Con
secrated to his Master's cause, ardent
and zealous, richly.; endowed mentally
and spiritually, un orator with a ready

the commmritv dissrusted with the!
empty professions of church members,
to warm them op, reclaim backsliders,
and convict and convert sinners, seem
ed at least discouraging. But with
godly persistence, the congregations
grew in numbers and interest from day
to lay, the membership were happily
reclaimed, sinners convicted, and at
some ot, the meetings tne enure con-.
gregation were kneeling at the alUr
and elsewhere in the house asking for
tha prayers of the church. ; ;
The membership came back to God,
and tinners were converted. Bethle
hem needed just such a revival, and
our people on all aides have been great
ly bleit .
Bro. Delotch will abidd in the grati
tude of our people for his successful
labors here. He has a happy gift of
presenting God's ' word to the minds
and hearts of his hearers. His man
ner is sincere and earnest, his gesticu
lation easy, never violent,' his voice
even and persuasive, plain and unequi-
vocal, never highly stressed, but pun -
