cookie matter

i'm trying to understand how cookies work,so i tried to catch the cookies in the same site but in different situations:
-when i log.in correctly
-when i fail to log in.
Comparing the 2 cookies i can see that the first part is the same,but in the first log there is something more,i think it's a cryptographed password and username.
i wanted to ask why,if i replace the incorrect cookie with the correct cookie ,the site doesn't remember me.

many tnx
