Talk On Change.

There was considerable disappointment and some
feeling evinced yesterday change on the street.
and in commercial circles generally, regarding the
Liverpool accounts brought by the Atlantic, arrived
at New York. There is great discrepancy, great
variation, between the accounts Of the 18th and the
10Th. Factors and buyers were taken all aback
somewhat noqpusscd. Our contemporary, the Plea
yune, published on Saturday morning last quotations
of Middns Orleans cotton at 6 to GIL, which
caused an advance in this market and led to heavy
operations, Possibly, the private correspondence
may confirm this reported advance, but the accounts
by the Atlantic do not indicate any such result be-
cause the same description Of cotton is only quoted
at 6 Ole The first accounts by the Arabia quoted
an advance of a sixteenth. and they kept gradually
increasing till they reached Il farthing. Bat what
renders the perplcNity Of the accounts more pro-
voking is, heavy purchases of cotton made on
the strength Of them. Though Mr.. Bull and his ope
tors did not enter the market largely. yet Boston
and Northern agents did. However, our factors have
made good sales and planters will realize highly re-
muneratiVc returns.
The regular accounts from London to the Sth and
the various Geographic dispatches Of the Arabia and
Aantcs advices lead To the suppositon that an easier
state of money matters had taken place in England,
then every one, dealers, buyers and sellers, will oc-
cupy equal ground.
Under the depressing character of the adyccs
brought by the Atlantic our market for cotton yes1cr-
day was very angud, and it is reasonable to suppose
that it must rcccdc unless the Asias adviccs of the
18th, which will be due to-day should quote f,vorl-
bic reaction in Liverpool. Mr.. Bull is as stubborn as
ever he will not believe in short crops till his spin

bad weather in England previous to the Sth which
acted injuriously the late harvests and tended to
keep flour and grain at good prices, which with the
dearncss in money, rcpressed disposition for heavy
speculaons though some spectators could not resist
the temptations of the cotton market.
Business is becoming active and lively on the levee

stock of cotton ship board and in warehouses foots
up 10000 bales, which is within few bales of the

The weather for the past two weeks has been re
markably favorable for the gathering Of cotton ant
the rpcning of sugar. We learn that accounts hay
been forwarded to Cincinnati that the prospects for
larger yield Of sugar were very favorable. We ar
afraid onr Ohio customers viii! not realize their anti
cipations. Bat very few estimates reach over 20 90
hhls, while l0o0 00are considered the most probable
and some estimates from good sources do not exceed
SO 900 hhas.
