I have Been ho many crudo statements about old cotton crops of tho South, tho probable stock on hand, and the quantity, including the growing cropj.tocome to market, that I have been to the trouble of looking up tho exact figure?. You ?mow that thiB industry and trade havo boon so dniportant to our port for many years, that wo havo kept doily, weekly, monthly and yearly tho most accurate accounts of it. A largo number of careful mon are constantly employed on tho sub ject, for tho press, buyers, sellers, and factors generally, as also for tho planters, and their figures can scarcely be wrong. In default of the exact'figures, these same mon are equally adepts at estimates, and often these estimates have va 3'ied but slightly from tho actual crops, receipts and BalcB. Many, in fact, are bo well acquainted with the planting region that it would be very difii cull/for them to go wrong. From these authentic aourcea, I have made out tho following table of the total cotton crops for fifteen years past, the re ceipt? at New Orleans, and the average prices. It la important and enriouc : Total Crop, N. O. Average "Year bales.' receipts, price. 1861-2.3,616,027 1,429,18.1 8c 18G2-3.3,262,882 1,664,864 9c 1853-4.2,930,027 1,440,779 8>i"c 1854-5.9,847,339 1,248,768 9 1-lOc 1855-6.3,627,845 1,769,293 9c 1856-7.2,9ir.),619 1,513,247 12 }{,c 1857-8.3,113,962 1,078,0 It) 11 ??C 1858-9.3,651,481 1,774,298 11K? 1859-60.4.C75.770 2,255,448 10?.C IfiCO-l.3,699,92ft 1,849,811 lie 1861-3 esti'd..3,500,000- 88,880 10c loo^-3.esti,d..l,100,000 22,078 68??c 1863-4.csti'd.. 500,000 131,044 85c 1864-5. CB?U. 600,000 Thus far 192,150 Aug., 38<S\44c The above estimates are from observation and calculation. In that of 1861-2,1 have made a de duction of 200,000 as compared with the preceding crop, becauso of tho breaking out of the war. Early in the ecaeon und all through it, young men were hurrying off to Virginia, taking many negroes with them. The disturbed state of affairs and withdrawal of labor were certainly equal to 200,000 balea. In the following year, well informed gentlemen, who were constantly traversing the, cotton belt, think the crop could not have exceeded my estimate. In 1863-4 a much larger crop was . planted in the lower Mississippi valley, bayous of Louisiana, and other regions within the Federal lines, hut the worms and heavy rains did much damage to it, not only on tho river but in Tennes see, and especially in Texas. No one estimates it higher than 500,000. The estim?t o of the growing crop is, perhaps, less to bo rolled upon. About two-thirds of a crop was planted In Texas, which will givo 180,000 bales. About the same propor tion was planted in some parts of Louisiana, His ?iseippi, Alabama, and Tennessee. In several States, or parts of States, none whatever was planted to speak of, because of tho presence or breaking up of the hostile, armies. This was tho case in the Bod River country and parts of Ark ansas,, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, 'Molina, and Florida. The crop all through this rich cot ton region Is very small, and the best statisticians put down tho total growing crop as low as 000,000 boles. I think 600,000, however, a more accurate estimate, and have hopes that the crop, which is a very fine ono, and ae yot unhurt by worms or bad weather, will even go above these figures. STOCK ON HAXD. And now as regards the stock on hand and to come to market. It is well known that the crop of 1860-61 was all gotten off, probably cleaner than any previous one." Wo have, then, the following figure?: Three old crops...... ;.6,100,000 Growing crop. 000,000 Total. ,t...:.I....8,700,000 Deduct old crop export*. 500,000 Three years' consumption.2,200,000 Burned, as estimated.?.....'....... 600,000 Damaged, as estimated.,.. 400,000 Total exports, consumption and destroyed. /3,80O,000 Leaving for ei-fort. 1,900,000 EXPORTO. The exports from New Orleans since the lvcgin ning of the year have been, up to date, 126,130 kales; how many from other ports I hare not tho data to say. It will be borne in mind hero, that I have added into the Bum total tho estimated grow ing crop of 600,000 bales, so that we shall have no moro till another year. As to "burned" and "damaged," estimated abovo, I havo given the opinions of others. I am quite confident, how ever, that tho estimate is far too high. The open lag of water-cotirscs and railroads has been fol lowed by an influx of the staple that fully proves it. In but very few ease? would the people burn it themoorws, ond sometimes^ as wot* the caso jilth Dick Taylor, o?ficerA'liigh in command ref?fi?il to' ordor it. X am Justjinf-Miiy-d. that tho.pooplevof the Otiacjnts conntfy trag' trenchcH,' lined tii?m well with timber, and buried thoir cotton in. them. These hidden treasures ap? now, for tho first timo, coming to light, and making their way down t? nurket. The awarap?, ??so, aro full of cotton, and it will soon be coming 'along. As" to the j"dan, aged," I imagine the sorious injury to it will prove Wrb. Ifitf ?Xtcnidve thfta at flj?t believed, Good bagging aud ropo wiU make the most of it all right again. IUECK1TT8 OK TUX WERK. The total reeeipta tho laut oommcrciolwcck have been 25,455 bales. Export? 10,010; to Now York 7812; to BoBton 2027; to Liverpool 1071. Stock on hand, including yesterday? receipt?, t3G,110. Thus far tho woathcr and rivera have favored tho com ing in of tho staple; buyers, especially for epin iicre, aro numerous, and only o-h thing operate? against a very act:,o business, and that is want of freight room in fast stoamore. Tho aolea of tho week, therefore, have been only 8500 bolea, against 9000 last week, and 9500 tho week before. The market doses at 3r3<g40c. for low n?ddling and 42 @44c. for middling. The saleB of tho last thrco weeks have been about 27,000 bales, mostly to spiuners, though the sp?culative demand hats made itself felt. Gold is still the most acceptable pay. Every steamer that comes brings thirty to fifty thousand dollars. Those which nailed from Hew York last Saturday, and now due, have on board some $300,000. Freight? continued to ad vance till some of the late Bteomere have gotten Sc. A large number of vessel? have lately arrived, adding so much to our cotton tonnage, that prices ure'now tending downwards. There are twelve steamships here in port, and four more arc on the way. They are all in this profitable cotton car rying traue. Among the new steamship enter prises in the Ncsliaimock, of 2000 toss, built at Philadelphia for tho New Orleans trade. Wo for merly had two steamships from that city. The Sou?cr went down to South America, the Electric Spark to the bottom of tho ocean under rebel pilotage. This is the beginning and ending of t Philadelphia and New Orleans steamship commu nication. STEAMSHIP LINES. Among others I notice that the Haze, North Star and Matanzas aro alBO bound out here, all after cotton. The Cahawba is likewise here, and your Young Rovor arrived yesterday. So you see my prognostication ab?nt sea-room for steamships -.y?B right. Boston ought to have one a week at least; yes, two for that city of Bolid men and cot ton trade. "Tho Now England Cotton Manufac turers' Association" is noticed by all our factories hero, as we notice everything connected with cot ton. 1 am sorry to say, in closing, that the army worm is doing damage in somo parts of our conn try, and especially in Texas. The Galveaton News says it has made its appearance "on many planta tions of Wharton County, and is threatening many of the largest fields on Caney. One entire field of two hundred acres was totally destroyed in a Bin gle night, and adjoining fields were threatened with similar evil fortune." More favorable ac count? come from other sections, and we yet hope generally to escape both the insect and had weather. We have hitherto had excellent weather, but rains have now set in, just in cotton-picking time, and some apprehensions are felt. OKNEBA& BANKS. Judge Dnroll yesterday paid a very high com pliment to Major-General Banks, who is still here, apparently enjoying himself. He said, in i cgard to the arguments on the test oath question, that though the General had not given many years of hia life to the study of the law, yet with one day's preparation, by mere strength of mind, he had struck upon the same course of reasoning as did Judge Tucker, in tho caso of Watkins Leigh, of Virginia, and Chief Justico Collier, in the Alabama Dorsey .case, and he strongly believed it based on sound law. And he added, "if the gentleman who so ably sustained himself should become a permament member of the Louisiana bar, ho would bo an ornament to his profession." Gen. Bank? imh no command here, and is supposed to he idle; hut X presumo ho is delving into Coke and Littleton. Dr. J. C. V. Smith, of your city, having concluded the work of tho Christian Commission, is about to leave for the North, with the intention of spending a year in Europe. Ho has made hosts of friends during his quiet residence here. The Fung Shuey loaves this evening. Gold 1484. Ster ling 156"f for currency. .?? ?Letter from m. Crazy Governor. ABOUT JOHN BELL-THE CLAUSES WHO OPPOSE BBOWNLOW. The following letter from Governor BnowNLOw appears in tho Knoxville Wing: Nashville, August 5. Rev. Dr. Sehon, after an absence at tho South for some time, has returned, and is on his way to Washington in search of pardon. Ho talks like a man of sense, and admit? that he did not act like a man of sense when ho joined in with the rebel lion. The Doctor is thoroughly subjugated, and' intends to make a good citizen from this out. I have had a long interview with John Bell. He is ten years older, in appearance, than when the war began. His teeth aro out, and that affects his speech. His hair and whiskers aro very gray, and he is very much stooped, aud leans upon hia staff liko an old man is expected to do. I treated him very kindly. He talks very freelv about the rebel lion, and in. opposition to it. He says the seces sionist? in tho South are all lunatics without any lucid intervals?that is to say, they are crazy all the time. I believe it a principle, in law, that if a lunatio have lucid Intervals at times, ho is respon sible for acts perpetrated in thoso intervals. And medical writers say that lunatics without lucid in : terrais are incurable. I accompanied the old gentleman to tho hcad ' quarters of General Thomas, and after a short but agreeablo interview with the General, wo went to the office of the Provost-Marshal-Gonoral. where the old gentleman took the amnesty oath, and placed himself right on tho record. ' Those who aro so greatly displeased with my course as Governor, and wlio see auch revolting doctrines in my editorials and proclamations, are of tho following classes, in nine cases out of ten : 1. They aro rebels ana have boen guilty of trying to destroy tho Government. 2. If not rebels, they ai-e rebel syninathizcrs. and have-rebel kin involved in the rebellion, and my teachings have not aided any in' their roloaso, 3. Last of all they are persons who have lost their dear negroes, and they arc ontr aged with tbe Federal Government, and at war with all who do not regard Lincoln's emancipation proclamation ns unconstitutional and contrary to God's Word !

CONTEMPIUTED WITIIDKAWAZ, OF T3K FllENCH TUOOrS fhox uxxico. I believe I am warranted in Haying that in a low days more tho public anxiety in relation to tho Mexican question will bo sot at rest by a semi-offi cial announcement of tho fact that tho Mexican imbroglio has been settled hi a manner consistent with the honor of tho American people, and in ac cordanco with tho principles of tho Monroe doc trine. The reported settlement is said to bo the result of Mr. Howard's diplomatic labors for some months past. It is said that immediately after tho surrender of tho rebel army under General Lee, Mr. Seward caused tho Emperor of Frauco to bo informed, through tho proper channel, that tho Government of tho United ?tates was then, or Roon would bo, in a position to maintain tho prin ciples of the Monroe doctrine ; that, owing to the difficulty which had been experienced in suppress ing tho rebellion, and tho length of timo which tho work occupied, tho United States hod been compelled to stand and look on, and tacitly consent to some things which wcro entirely opposed to tho spirit of our institutions; that among thom was the establishment of a foreign monarchy in Mexi co on tho ruins of the Mexican republic; that the United States Government is now able to devoto tho proper degree of attention to its foroign rela tions; that tho Monroo Doctrino constitutes ono of the most cherished principles of our Government, and that the President is determined to enforce it; that in a few weeks we would havo a veteran army of half a million of men, who could bo thrown hito Mexico in a few days; and that, if it became ne cessary, this great force would be employed in tho expulsion of Maximilian and tho Fronch troops from Mexico, and in the restoration of tho repub lic there. These, of courso. were not the words; hut it is paid that this was tho tenor and effect of tho dispatch, and that it has had tho intended ef fect: and that tho Government has recently receiv ed from Franco tho assurance that tho French troops shall all be withdrawn from Mexico, and that Maximilian himself wiU soon abdicate his throne and return to Austria. It is only since the receipt of this most gratifying intelligence from Franco that orders havo been given for the gradual disbandment of the United States troops in Texas. They were sent thero because it was not yet known what the decision of Napoleon would be; and there was a prospect at ono time that their services would be actually needed for tbe ex pulsion of Maximilian by force. Now, however, it is known that the Monroo Doctrino will be respect 'cd by Napoleon, and, therefore, tho necessity which existed for their being sent to the Rio Grande has nasscd awny. Tho Monroo Doctrine, therefore, w?l bo established on a firmer basis than ever before; and tho friends of Mr. Bcward declaro that this is entirely the work of the Secre tary of State. Tho abdication of Maximilian, and the re-establishment of th? republican form of go vernment in Mexico, must not ho looked for imme diately. But that these events will take place within a reasonable time, it is said, thero ib no doubt whatever. I intimated, some time ago, that if Maximilian did finally abdicate, the Secretary of State would claim tho credit for having brought about that residt; and if what is stated above is founded on facts, it will bo evident that tbe Secre tary can make out a pretty fair case. THE RECLAIMED HUSBAND. Mneh interest is excited in fashionable circles here, by the return to this city of Mr. and Mrs. G-?, whoso adventures have recontly ocenpied so much space in tho Now York papers. Tho lady was for many years a groat favorite in society here, and bas many warm and influential friends. Every one sympathises with her in tho trials she has undergone, and hopes that her troubles and trials are now at an end. . I do not think you would care to have me repeat all that the gossips Bay about this unhappy case. The husband has inti mated his intention of living with his wifo in future, and of giving her no ground for complaint; and as long as lie doCs this, tho publia hau no right to indulge m speculations about his family. THE PBESIDENT'S H0U8E. The President's unwillingness to leave the "White House, causes a great deal of remark. Several members of the Cabinet have declared that they will not attend the meetings of that body, if they are to bo held at the White HouBe; ond it is even said that four of them have united in a petition to the President, entreating him to remove to another house, and declaring that they will not risk their health by inhaling the poisonous malaria of the present building, and that they will not attend the Cabinet meetings in that house any longer. The War In. South America. In South America thero is always a "Military Situation" of some kind for tho study of thoso who feel an interest in war for itself ; but to one who looks at it from a higher position of observation. as a meaiis of redressing wrongs, emancipating races, overthrowing false and injurious ideas, and the like, and only justifiable on such ground, there is little that is attractive or worthy of investiga tion in these petty wars of the mongrel South American races, which continually keep open the doors of their Temples of Janus. Just now, how ever, thore is a war waging between Paraguay on the one sido, and the allied States of Brazil, the Argentine Republic, and Uraguay, on the other, which has assumed more than ordinary impor tance, and possesses a very considerable degree of interest. The war alises out of the long-determined and selfish desire of Brazil to extend her boundaries to tho Rio do la Plata, on the south, and the Uraguay on the west. Such an acquisition of territory would give Brazil control of la Plata, and the fer tile lands which that large stream and her tribu taries drain, a tract of land 70.000 square miles in extent. Tho Argentine Republic?though it is the natural enemy of Brazil, and has had no end of contests with its comparatively powerful neighbor, comes into tho ?ch?me, wliich would seem to offer the r?public few immediate advantages, while it would give tho empire an overshadowing influence ?to repossess Paraguay, which onoe belonged to the confederation, and open to improvement and development the whole northern territory of the confederation, now shut out by the narrow-minded and restrictivo policy of Paraguay, with regard to the navigation pf the Paraguay .Hiver. Paraguay lights for selfish agrandizement, to resist encroach ments, and to sustain hex policy. This, in brief, is tho meaning of the war.. Paraguay has a population of about 00,000, un der a military despotism, with a strong army and a well fortified territory. She can nut 60,000 men into tho field. Tho Argentine Republic can scarcely furnish'?5,000. Brazil, though the largest of the three States, cannot send more than 80,000. So, hi tho matter of numbers, Paraguay has the ad vantage. President Mitre lead? the Argentino forces, President Florea the Uruguayans, and. President Lopez tho Paraguayans. On tho land, the contest ?bows thus far about evenly balanced sucoeos and defeat for both par ties. On the sea, the Paraguayans have been badly whipped. A naval, fight took place on the 11th of June, threo leagues below the city. of Cor rientes, in which tho Payagnayan squadron was almost completely annihdatcd by that of Brazil. Tho forces were of formidable size and tho fight hotly ; contested. Tho Brazilians had nine gun boats, mounting G2 guns, many of them rilled. Their enemy had o i flit steamers and six floating batteries, mounting in all 47 guns. They also had the aid of land batteries of 80 guns, light field pieces. Tho Paraguayans lost tlueo steamers sunk and ono Burrendcrod; Tho remainder es caped, but only after; having suffered what the Brazilians claim to be irrepwablo damage. All the accounts, whiohby tho way, are only Brazilian, gly<! the Paraguayans credit for the greatest valor. To uso'a slang phrase?they fought for a funeral. Tho Brazilians lost, killed and wounded, over 300, while they claim to. have put 1300 of tho fleet of their cftbmVrW? da combat, besides 600 in, the shore batteries, live of which a surrendered. Though sb badly worsted, Mi o Paraguayans havo no idea of giving up tho contest, and ntiflhopo for 8?OCC89, which thq In6t accounts show their laud forcCBtobo ?till achieving in various quarters o? tho field of war.?Ariiiy and Navy Gazette.
