NEW ORLEANS MARKETS.

SATURDAY MORNING. Dec. 16, 1873
The business transactions of the week Just elapsed have
not been on very extensive scale in any department and
prices - of Flour and Corn rather lower since the
Bdtannas ACCOUNTS wers received Cotton has been in
good request and after fascinating slightly the market closes
with great ssadiness The weather has been unfavorsble
most Of the Tine and this with the anticipation Of later
news from Europe by the Canada (now fully due) has had
some effect in limiting operations generally.
The river has nearly five feet since Monday morning
and is still rising.
COTTON-No alteration occurred in the market On
Saturday the sales being limited to about 500 bales al
rates. The Bfanna's advice transmitted by te'9s
to Mobile and thence TO this city Monday by mal ooAeu
rather encouraging for Coon-N which was most
wanted having beceme rather dsaer at LFepood anu tne
quotations for Fair Orleans remaining at 4d as reported Dy
the previous steamer Nevertheless buyers here dld not seem
willing TO pay the full before current and about oOVO
bales changed hands on Monday and Tuesday on rather
easier terms for them On Wednesday and Thursday how
ever the inquiry was general and the business reached
II 600 bales the slight decline of the day two previous be-
ing fully reganed. Yesterday there brisk demand,
owing to the favorable of the BHtsnnias letters and
1000 bae disposed of making the entire business Of the
week 500 bales taken chiefly for England and the North
Prices close steadily quotations of last Saturday.
The receipts at this port exceed those Of last year to
same date by 420i2 bales and at all the s. ports there IS
excess of 24S, 6I9 bales

Posi- GENERALS Notwithstanding
to this document the Postoffice revenue, under the
reduced rates, rapidly increasing, and amounted
during the last fiscal year, to S4 All, OFT; exceed
ing the annual average of the nine years immedi-
ately preceding the passage of the reducing act
S. 453, and exceeding the revenue Of the year i'm
mediately preceding the last, 1926, l84.
The letter postage amounted to s., $50, 9O4, ex-
eeeding that Of the previous year, 1926, 79l.
The newspaper postage amounted to S767 1884,
being an increase of SI24, ia.
The report next proceeds to set forth the eondi-
ton and operations of the Department in relation
to the steamer mail service.
Among the most prominent recommendations
which it sets forth, are these: To make the rate
of postage uniform for letters at five cents the half
ounce; for newspapers, at one cent the ounce; for
periodicals, two cents the ounce; and for foreign
letters fifteen cents the half ounce the total abo-
lition of the franking privileges the prepayment of
all mail matter and, lastly, change in the tenure
ofthe office the Postmaster General, with view
of removing the opinion which exists, that, as at
present constituted, the Post-offiee Department is
used by politicians at the seat Of Government with
the view ofpromOting party purposes and party or
CARNATIONS.
But there Is one recommendation, says the N. Y.
Express, which is ludicrous. Speaking of postage
on newspapers, Mr.. johnson says:
Heretofore the charge has been made upon each
paper without regard to weight, which is unjust to
the publishers, as well the public; and there
is no satisfactory reason why they should not be
charged by weight, as well as letters and other
sealed packages This would lead to discontinue
of the practice of depositng newspapers in the
mails before they are dry, which renders them more
liable to injury and their weights greatly increased
from the dampness of the paper. A uniform rate OF
one cent upon each ounce, or fraction under it,
would be more just, and probably yield as much re-
venue as the present rates.
Weighing newspapers continues. the Express
Depositing them when they are wet! Does the
Postmaster General think newspapers can be
printed without being wet, or that there any time
to dry them before they are mailed Imagine a
newspaper press-room with furnace and drying
room in i-and the mails, of course, lost, and the
people all around waiting for the drying room to
make ready their newspapers Acknowledging
papers would soon lead to the use Of such thin sheets
that all the eyes in the country would be used upn
reading them.

new hall fitted up in the second story of the Car

room, 80 feet by 49, and is as well adapted for the
purpose for which it has been prepared, for balls,
concerts, or lecture hall, any in the city. The
entrance is on Carondelet street, and it is no slight
recommendation that persons, and especially ladies,
visiting an exhibition or entertainment at the sa-
loon, will be freed from the annoyance of passing
through a crowded thoroughfare or Objectionable
neighborhood.

SABLE MELoDIsTs. We last evening visited
the Armory to hear this delightful and unique
troupe, and we must say that their performance
quite equaled, if not surpassed our expectations.
Owing to the inclemency of the weather, the at
tendance was not as large as it otherwise would
have been; but all who were present testified their
delight by repeated bursts of applause. The selee
ton of airs was very fine, and they were all exc
culed with admirable taste. The celebrated
Railroad Overture, in particular, was received
with great applause, and rapturously encored. The
instrumental music was also very delightful, and
the performance of Mr.. Whitney upon the violin
was excellent They give another concert this
