indeed, fully equal to its appmeasee. The organist yee.

C=dseveral pieties palmed white view to test the eapa-
the instrument. The most admired were tbe over-
ture to " Dos Giovanni" and the Hash, ye pretty warbling

Malay, a meeting of delegates from the factery operatives
wee held at the Mill these Tavern, Tbomm-etrest, Hen-
cheater, to emeider the propriety of applying to the master

TIMISOINI wee attended by about sixty delegates. Philip

terior. There was also a disposition on the part of
the merchants to invest in cotton, sugar, and real
estate. Caution is recommended to parties in this
country who desire to purchase lands in America, to
deal only with responsible agents. The snb-treasury
had received a considerable addition to its funds by
the payment of the import duties, which, daring the
week, amounted to 1,250.000 dollars, and
which, it was expected, would continue in the
same ratio for some time to oome, and thee relieve
the banks of some of their dormant deposits. The
grain crops generally were not favourably spoken of,
owing to the inundations in several districts. All
accounts agree in estimating the forthcoming cotton
:sis not likely to exceed 2,250,000 bales ; never-
it was not possible to speak of it with certainty
imil the season had somewhat more advanced. A
lbw weeks more would decide the question. The total
esseipts of ootton at all the shipping ports were
M 95,747 bales, which is an increase of 397,987 bales
es compared with the same period last year. The
dock was estimated at 52,147 bales, which is 41,998
Mao less than at the corresponding period
het year. The rate of exchange on this won-
ky had advanced to 1091 to 109!, and in
. -
some instances

mated and buoyant. The sales of the week comprised
1,550 hhds., which was considered a large amount in
proportion to the reduced supply unsold, and the pre-
vious upward tendency of prices had bean sufficiently
decided to cause an advance !n the quotations cf 4. to
I cent. Lugs, factory, were quoted 20. to 3c. per lb.;
planters' ditto, 21 to 4 : leaf, inferior to common, 41
to 41; fair to one, 51 to 61; choice and selections,
61 to 71. The stock on hand amounted to 17,055
had,. The exchange market continued to be very
sparingly supplied with bills of all des:::iptions. The
demand was also very limited, and the rates mostly
nominal. Sterling wee quoted at 81 to 91 per cent.
prem.; francs, sf. 221 c. to sf. 30c. Freights were
inactive, few engagements having taken place. The
rate for ootton to Livery rol was Id. to 5.16 J.;
tobacco, to London, 325. 6d. per had., and to Liver-
pool, 30s.
Later eclair's. from New Orleans, extending to the
15th, have been received by telegraph to New York,
but they communicate no commercial intelligence
of consequence. The sales of cotton had been trifling,
holders asking extreme prices.
The dates received from H%vana are to the 11th of
