Comptroller of the Currency. Official from the Agricultural Bureau The cotton rotorua of October are no more favorable than those of preceding months. In no State is tho average ot September fully-sustained. The general average of condition in the first week of tho present month is 76 per cent., against 80 per cent, iu September. In some sections in tho Mississippi Valley ( and in 'Oexas, improved prospects are reported, while the preponderance of testimony in the- South-west, as well as on the Atlantic coast, favors a further reduction of the expected yield. The per centage of condition io the several States is as follows: North Carolina, 80; South Carolina, 75; Georgia, 72; Flo? rida, 73; Alabama, 75; Mississippi, 76; Louisiana, 73; Texas, 72; Arkansas, 82; j Tennessee, 04. .The injuries reported are from rust, shedding of bolls prematurely, suffi? ciently low temperature to "check de? velopment of bolls in more Northern latitud* a, floods aud inundating in Florida and Georgia, sprouting or rot? ting of bolls from rains, drought in the section Wost of Georgia, and the boll and army worms in portions of Missis? sippi and more Western States. It does not appear that the losses from insects dre general or very serious. With a few isolated exooptions, drought should be credited with a larger proportion of the depreciation than any other assigned cause, notwithstanding the faot that cot? ton endures lack of moisture better than other crops. The present indications do not point to a crop of more than 3,000,000 bales. If the remaining sea? son should be unfavorable for the' de? velopment and gathering of the fibre, as a matter of course this result must be accepted. CHICAGO, Ootober 17.-Hon. Cf. S.
