Corron.—Since the reception of the October returns local reports from the 
cotton section have been much more favorable, especially in the southwest, where 
the result in comparison with the acreage planted is better than.in any preceding 
season since the trial of free labor. Picking has been unexpectedly prolonged, 
and the autumn favorable. While the area in cotton was somewhat less than 
in 1867, the eulture was better, and in all the States west of Alabama the yield 
was far better, with less drawback and casualty, though the reverse was the 
case in all the more eastern cotton States. Yet it is the west that tells upon 
the result. Mississippi once produced nearly a million and a quarter of bales. 
The following estimate, which is assuredly below rather than above the actual 
yield, is not made for districts or cotton ports, as is generaly done in commercial 
reports, but for States separately :
