The supply for the continent of Europe has not been as certained with any certainty, hut is suppo. sed to exceed that of the preceeding year, when the asmsount taken for consumption in the whole of Europe, (including Great Britain,) is stated at 3,077,712 bales, to winch if added the consumption in tihe U.

This shows a healthy mnaiket and warrants us in encour aging the cheering belief that whatever may be th result of the present crop, pri ces must be maintained. With regard to the prospects of the growing crop no cor rect estimate can yet be made, we can only add, that throughout the country, planting was thrown backward by the late Spring, and should an early frost ensue great injury may be done; planters have also mnd to eontend against a season of extreme drought, folloved by heavy rains which aus lhave been injurious to their crops.* Before ,losiug this article we would call a'tention to the appended extract from the New Orleans Pices Current, its remarks may not be applicable to our planters here, but is nevertheless worth noting. .MIXFDn Cor-ro i GINNa;G, -a,--We have repeatedly called the "Ittention of planters to tle necessity of mare care in the packing of Cotton, so that tjegxmig of the different qialities 'An the sant bAD niay ic avoided, and .we ricu'rto-MWe sub ject anain, with iner'as'd eaiestness, as the evil is a niostlvexatious one, and is still constanatIy cornplained of, to the great det rimnent of the trade. .Another evil, of a graver character, is loudly complained of, nnud this is ono ivhich it behooves every honest. planter and factor to discountenance atnd expose We allude tofa se packing, whlich somae parties are dishonest enough to re'sort to; with evident view to defraud.

So) .renst has this evil become that we have beeni lpecially addressed on the sub ject lby a respectable house at Manchester, Eland~~ss from, w~hose letter we take thte followmt: extrauct: "You would subserve thte intuerest' many parties if you would call the planter's attention to the injurions practiace of false packing of Cotton.

I shoufld say that all hogs suitable for fatteni4g will be made fat.- Stock hogs are three dollars per hundred, gross and freely offered. Fat hogs refused at same price.

I am now grazing 700 cattle-only ohe hundi-ed ofthem will be fit for killing this fall, whereas usually one-half would have been good beef. I found it utterly impos sible in Kentucky torget aged cattle for grazing fat. Beef is six cents per pound here now, and must advance with the fall demand. The California trade has talen off most of the extreme Western cattle, and oxen have been bought in this country for that mifrket. Tennessee has even been hunted over fhr old oxen to feed for the New York market by Kentuckeians and Ohioans.

The following are extracts- from letters from 'diflerent sections of-the western country,- from which it ivill be seen that the price of hog: is very unsettled. -A writer to the Louisville Journal, from Lexing ton, Ky., on the 20th August, says "As for corn you may feel assured that there was a better prospect far -a fine crop, and prico's are iver3-dny-eel. ing the effect of it.-Farmers -who asked $1 75nd *2 per barrel (5 bush els] in the field a tnonth since are now willing. if not anxious to sell at *1 25 and do' not fine buyers at that price.

The unusual iy large number of hogs in the coun.. try, joined to, the factgof the' corn cropJ beimg so line, makes people rath er seary about specbittions ini them, and we may expect operators this year to beo more prudent than they were last."

Feeders are calculatinig on a consid erale reduction in price, though there have been no contracts made yet that I have heard of." From Dublin. Indiana: "It is be lieved that there is quite as many Stock Hogs, if not more than -'there was last year. Price of Stock Hlogs 3 ents per lb.; hear- of no price for- fat Hogs, but it is the judgment of huyers that, *3,00 to 3,25 will be about the price per 100 lbs. net." F'rom Gr-eenwood, Indiana: "The number of Hogs in this section of country is at least equal to that of last year-. Stock H~ogs have sold fr om *2,75 to $3,00 gross, but there is some hesitancy in taking hold, in conse quencee of the anticipated failure of the corn crop, this cr-op haviing suficred severely fom drought." From Freedom, Owen county, Tn diamia: "Trho present stock of Hogs is full 10 per- cent.; larger than that of last. The gener-al opinion is -that Ilugs will be low.. Stock Hogs have been selling at *3,00 gross, but are dull at that, and buyers arec hold ing back." From Clinton, Indiana: "It is the general impression here, of both feeders and buyers, that the number oh Hogs is about the same .as. last year, and that the price wvill range fromi 3 to 4 cents, according to the final re sult of the Corn crop and the Mo ney mar-ket .'-N.
