decline of I'D per To- On the contrary tn addition
al advces received week ago, that the receipts had
further risen to an excess of bales brought
about an advance of 3D. OF course this upward turn
is not, strictly speaking, attributable TO the increased
receipts but as those statements were accompanied
by such positive and absolute advces that the whole
crop, notwithstanding the large receipts, would not
exceed the former short crop estimates, has given
confidence and an upward tendency to prices. One
great of the steady demand from the trade, is
the absolute barenness of the stocks. cannot, how

The BEGINNING OF THE END. We learn that the
Collector of this port has been directed by the Com
missioner of the Customs to employ no more slaves
to man the revenue boat. This order, presume, is
but prelude to general system forbiding the em-
ploymsnt of slave labor in any way under the Gene
raj Government which may now be regarded as cast
ing the weight OF its influence against existence
of this institution. Of course, Mr.. Commissioner
Rockwell would not have ventured upon an order
necessarily so much calculated to excite the suspi
