There is no doubt about this crop being short of last year's. Notwithstanding the report of some of the cotton speculators is to the contrary. -The sun shines, .trains pass, the oil mill and cotton gins are humming and businoss- is beiaig done at the same old stands, yet there is a sullen stdness in some quarters that is evidently a token of some disappointment, perhaps not intended to be generally known, but as trivial as they are to- the: world generally, knowing ones can read between the lines what the near future will reveal.
