The following letterie .otn one of the most respectable and experienced plan ters of this county. We have received maly letters frpn different. persons of the State, all to the same'fenor, a falling off from last year, of nearly one hall crop. We will at an. early period prepare an abstract of the tables and estimates, whicb we-jave received : Gentlemen--I received your :circular st'd.. fill up sonie ten 'or twelve names, fromi all the ibfrmatiol I can obtain there it a bertaittty that a third of the crop is cut off, And in many cases half! but even a third on the last years crop, will lie.a great flIliig off, considering that the bid wen ther for gathe-ing was so niu - .li that of last year. The farmer has to run th'e risk of the aud weastle'r yet !-the quality may in the general be a.httle bet ter !-but ihe particles of trash are con stanily falling, and many cdtlplata. I think it tore like'y that tile crops will be overrated, from the fact that many have anticipated their nett years crop, and many still will draw ahead of the present crops What a deficieilcy cati produce upon the presentrate of tle market, remains to be seen, for it may ie dtllicult to indace Manufacturers to raise . aheir prices sud denly unless there 'aitild be t *drrantry that their goods ,vo'ld be enhanced cur respondiugly in price. the cataes "f failure thik year, tre- mainly, attritutable to the fluctuations of the *atliei..

It appears that you de-ire the various see ions of the country to give you informa tion on this subject. .I hevo travelled in four or live counties within the last ten days, say a [part of Lowndes, Dallas, WVil COX, Monroe and Butler, and I have tO conversed with the first itndividual who thought they wotild make halt ai crop, very few oiver a third and some not more thea a fourth-itn the neighborhood mi which L teside I do not thitnk monre than a third of a commnon crop will be mtade', as mot of the planters will be done plecking in ite course of ten or fifteen dnays.

IYours respecftfully, A PLANTER. Our Market.-Cou1O.-No change h.. taken place in prices since our latst quota ions; and the-opiniont still contintues, thu former rates will be failly sustained. We have very carefully looked over thi a ccounts fromn all parts of the Union ; ani foekoureves warranted in saying, tha t he Cotton erop of this year wvill bie a ver~ mall one. If the falling olT, should b flly 400,000 bales w~e wvill not be-at al surprised. The Sea Island crop will b ext to nothing ; and in the place of! th utaple, coarser cot tons will have to ho-use ...h, .tnnrfatorcrS. who. iisuly cot sume it. Four causes will contribute to make cotton' ring good pricesithis season. 1st. The crop of last year and this,. are both small ones. 2od. Large amounts of capital have been invested in new Cotton Factories in this country and Europe,.-wtich capital inust be re'ndered productive by the use of the raw material. 3rd. The provision crop is a pledtiftil one. which will enable farmers atid dtteis, to consume more largely df manufictured cotton goods. 4th11 Our redndd tarifi will edai!e the manufacturers of all the world. to give better prices for our &dttnu, because they sell to us on Uoter teertq. While, however, these canoes are inevi table in their results, and.whilo dte are firmly persuaded. treat cotton till tiring good prices, we are far fiomd advising atiy f our farmern to hold back. Fifteen years acquaintance wiih several of the largest plinting interests in this Siate, has convinced us, that.in the main, it i alweys best for the.planter to get out his crop as soon as convenient, and -to take. the market d. it runs. At another time, we tiay lie liaps present some calculations on this subject ftr the benefit of our farm. er, who may not have considered the matter for -themselves.
