or The steamboat Walnut Hills arrived
here from Orleans on Tuesday last, bringing
US papers from that city Of dates up TO the
25th inst, from which we have made no ex-
tracts, as nothing of material importance or
interest to the citizens Ofthis quarter, met our
eye. The boat lay at our wharf but an hour
or so, when she again got under weigh, and
proceeded upward, her commander having
formed the determination of reaching Tchula
il possible. We hope he may succeed in his
endeaVor, as undoubtedly it would be profit
able to the boat, for cotton must be stored
there to considerable amount, of which
Captain Mosby could not fail to receive as
much as the Walnut Hills could get out
with. The Maid of Arkansas left this place
for New Orleans last Wednesday. We have
Internationally neglected to notice this fine
steamer during the season, but now assure
the travelling portion of the community she
affords every accommodation that passengers
can desire Having an Obliging command
er, crew, &c. We were also favored with
New Orleans papers sent to us from this boat.

From the New Orleans Bulletin. Dec d.

CoTToN FUR Up IN Iron HooPS.-An experiment,
has been recently made, submitting iron hoops foI
rope, IN the ballng of cotton, which, for several
reasons, is and must result in a total failure; and
we feel 1t our duty as public Journalists, to place
such facts as have come to our know ledge, before
this great interest of the objections already made
manifest, and the losses likely to be sustained BY
this experiment.
In the first place, it is fact well known that il
IS impossible to land cotton IN New Orleans. after
undergoing the various modes of transportation
and exposure to which it is necessarily subjected
from the gin house of the planter till it is placed
on shipbOard in New Orleans. without receiving
more or less dampness from the fogs of the river.
or OF rain, and cOnseq uently becomes rusted
We have recently witnessed lot which had
been thus exposed, and find the iron entirely 20
vered with rust, which has damaged the whole
circumference OF the bagging, as we'll as the cot.
ton under and ad jacent to each hoop, upon which
the loss OF cotton TO say nothing of the damage
to the bagglng) cannot be less than one pound to
each iron hoop Surprising bale to have seven
hoops, (the usual number) is an actual loss of se
ven pounds per bale, which for the present will
fall upon the purchaser or manufacturer, but will
eventually react upon the planter, as no manufac.
turers will purchase with this knowledge, without
the requisite deduction being made
The next objection is the weight of the iron
which, upon weighing, is found to be double that
OF rope, amounting to tare of fourteen pounds
per bale. No purchaser is so blinded to his inte-
rest as to pay for this amount of iron as cotton.
particularly when it is known that the rustcd iron
would be worth nothing by the time it reached its
place of destination.
Some sales have already been made of cotton
put up in iron hoops, and the purchasers have de-
manded and received deduction of one dollar
per bale, which, of course, is charged the planter.
and it will require double that amount to cover
the damage by rust, and the difference in weight.
by the time it reaches the manufacturer.

So many articles are annually given to the
reading public by the editors of the different
journals of the country, on the expiration oil
an old year and the beginning Of a new
one, that scarcely line can now be written
on this subject that does not appear to carry
a palpabe show of plagiarism. We have
frequently seen paragraphs of this kind full
of moral reflections on the past year, and
entreating all persons to look forward on the
future with intense anxiety to the welfare Of
that immortal spirit within them, which
each receding year places so much nearer to
its everlasting dwelling place, be that place
the blissful abode of the righteous, or the hor-
rible dwelling of the damned! Gentle read
or, fear not that we are about to inhict on
you one of these sermonizing paragraphs -
far be il from US. Sermonizing we leave in
its proper place-the pulpit from which eve
~ one so disposed can receive such instruc-
tons to pursue moral path, as must ne
cessarily prove Of much more utility than
would all such random paragraphs collected
together, printed in a volume and copied in
every newspaper in the world. We well
come New Years Day as holiday, and pass
that day in merriment, cen as we were
wont to do in the days Of our OyhOOd. We
view it as an oasis in the midst of fatiguing
wilderness, which having reached, we rest for
a shorttime our weary limbs and recruit our
strength ere we farther pursue the Journey
Of Life. Do thou the same. "To our patrons
all we wish happy New YEAR. /" That last
sentence is quoted from-we don't exactly
know who.
