COTTON.-A recent letter from De
oatur, Ala., states as tho result of the
observation of thc writer in North
Alabama and Middle Tennessee, that
the cotton crops, although an unu?
sually great breadth of land has been
planted, is likely to be almost a com?
plete failure, owing to the worthless?
ness of tho seed, which was from two
to four years old, and an unpropi?
tious season.
