B J The impression Is very general in this ml quarter that the ctop of 1831 will be feund ' to be vorv largo.... There is, however, as I ! usual, a difference of opinion on this point. A planter high in authority; says to me,44 I ( as to the crop of Miean I nave, since the lip lirst of September, travelad not less thau t- MO miles, moat of it on different routs, seeing at lenet 400 miles of this state and Eaten Louisiana, and by enquiry i have |j iufcmnod myself as well as possible, and I w iiw uHDKUtgfe is one Dale to tho hand I mora than last year, or, in other wosds. 1 Mississippi will send Toward about 100, | 000 bales more than last yoar. I am fully awara that much of our country has excecl ped the above, yet otlier parts have fallen ?WIV i . The storm in November cut off a vast | 4eal i am sure. I lost one twelfth of what pf I made.

Should the crop, when 1 in, r.ot turn out large, I shall not regret itI On the bayous and rivers of western Miss., \ the crop is as fully in market as is usual. J but iidnll tho region accommodated by tlie ( Tombigbee, which embraces western Alabama, upper and eastern Mississippi?a fine country?the cotton is yet at home. TImj river has not been, nor is it yet navigable, nnd of course it is impracticable to akip the produce of this region. After the (all of the rains here, the receipts to the H tlulf |>osts uia'y bo expectM to be greatly swollen. A conquerable alarm has been Ifck by planters lest they might not get in thh crop at all. This is certainly a potent agument for making rail roads among us. Yours, truly. Jackson. ^ Mississippi, Jane, 30, 1851. L V j From the N. O. Picayune.
