Tho Democrats _will attend to that matter at the next session. w Cotton.? The troo oi'8> a Island cotton I iii this viciuity is now ascertained to be iM'ar below tho average, some dealers estimating the yield at one half that of last year. At tho opening of the season the buyers offered but four and a half or five cents per pound, they have gradually ad' t vanced the price until they are now paying seven cents.
