We shall miss their kindly greeting and near eom rsdeshlp as they told of the days of 1861-66, when they were young, strong and active, and counted not their lives dear when the call of duty placed them among that noble band.

There has been recently more or ess discussion of the cost of prodUC g cotton and the margin of piottt ii the prevailing prices.

T_:at this opinion vas well taken is proven by figures detained a few days ago from a citi Jan of North Carolina who quoted itatistics tabulated by government tnlclals in that State. Official roe nils have been kept OS to the cost of .rowing cotton on 210 selected farm' n North Carolina during the past live ears. these farms being of variou: ilses and type:, and scattered through >ut the State, so that they are repre? sentative of the average of the cotton arm.-, of the State.
