TALE ON fCHANGE--Thes great disparity between
the receipts Of cotton the present season up this
time with those Of last season, is the topic Of CONVEX
sation and comment OH lchange and on the streets
generally Although it is rather early in the season
to expect anything to arise from the thousand and
one views expressed, nevertheless it is not out
OF place to make comparisons. On the 20th, 2lst
22d, Esd a25th and Goth days Of August lust the
receipts Of cotton were bales; for the same days
this season we cannot cure up over 1862 bales, of
which only 347 bales are Of this season product.
The only clearance Of any note for the past two
weeks 1871 bales for Boston by the ship Parthenon
There was 4 small cargo, say $50 bales exported fol
Spain last week The last clearance for Liverpool
was on the sth August, by the bark Emigrant, with
1875 bales previous to which there was no clearance
from the 39th Juy, on which day the ships Western
Chief cleared with 9I7 bales and the J. G. Richard
son with I21I bales. The next vessel to clear for
Liverpool is the ship 0tseonte. If she could get of
this week the exports would be increased but there
is every reason to believe that there will be aoat at
sea from this port Great Britain as being shipped
from this port only the cargo of the Emigran, say
1875 bales.
The next question which propounds itself is how
much cotton will be shipped for Liverpool during the
month Of September The stock on hand at this
time is lower than 1t has been for eleven years except
ing at one period. The next question, will there moi
be a short supply in England on the LIST Of Noyem
her Assurealy in our estimation there will Under
date of the 2lst Of June last we wrote as follows
in regard to the adyices from Liverpool of the slst Of
May:
The letters by the Arabia, from Liverpool of the
3lst ult., came through to-day Their general pur.
port, far commercial matters are concerned are
mi
political character arises to disturb the course Of
trade. The cotton market will hereafter for the bal
ance of the season, be uniform and steady. The
most depressing accounts from this side went out by
the Persia and the adVices following by the succeed
ing steamers would be eonfirmatory of falling of
in the receipts at MI Southern ports The stock in
all exports are nov SO reduced that they can be
easily controlled
The cotton market has, ne think, through the sea
son or for three months been about as uniform ant
regular as could have been expected. The stock il
this port has been controlled, though not held fol
high Of exorbitant prices. Generally, factors have
been content with equitable prices, uninhueneed By
the weekly vapors and exhalations which have ema
mated from that holy cpnclage, the New York brokers
There was but little doing today on the streets
The arrival Of four five boats from the West created
some life on the landing.
There are several vessels due from Northern and
European ports with valuable cargoes The steamer
Texas, from Vera Cruz, brought ~ 800 Meyiear
dollars, which Of course will meet with d ready sale
The weather has been clear for several days, which
will tend to sustain views Of long crop believers in cot
ton, though many are now calculating on $500 ,O0(
bales for the United States which is Indicative Of
reduction from these glowing and fattering accounts
which have been injudieionsly forwarded to distan
markets.
The city continues healthy though there are som
high cases 81 fever. they can only be considered
sporadic
