The business generally, for the week in cotton,

been very restricted It will be observed that the re-
ceipts Of cotton for tile week are only G23 bales For

week have been SOS hhds. The receipts Of sugar and
moasses about equal to FIVE fay loads. The receipts
of Western produce have been large for the season
reference Id made to- onr daily marine register for

Yesterday was beautiful day for the season, with
pleasant breeze peyadng and the city entirely free
from all disease fact, is more healthy than any
city Of its number of inhabitants on this continent
every body appeared to be in the best of humor with
a themselves and all mankind. No more new cotton
was reported being received at O'Clock last even
ing The Reals rather staggered at the delay in
Tecep promising that it is held back for purposes
net planned We can assure them, although we
not Bull the market, that there are good and
just reasons why the article does come to market
They are, that the cotton is not ripe and not being
ripe, cannot be picked, and not picked, cannot be
ginned, baled and sent to market consequently the
stock must continue to decrease. The clearances
yesterday were Is bales for Liverpool by the Emf
grant, which, with what is on board the Otseonthe
and three other vessels, reduces the stock to low
figures.
Telegraph adyices from New York giving the arrival
the ASIA were received and laid before our readers
in yesterdays ISSUE The political intelligence is re-
sgarded with more interest, just at this moment,
than the commercial and financial. The troubles in
Spain, the threatened interference of France, leads
TO the superstition that England will not be quiet or
submissive spectator. OF course, coniectures must
be regarded as the views of the moment, though if
& Napoleon the Third concludes to take hand in the
evouton in Spain, itmay lead to something of more
than an ordinary character. In the meantime, we
can only say, let all the Kings Emperors, Queens,
one and all in Europe, get to oggerheads we on this
side shall not suffer in this early period Of the season
We can, at least, keep our produce at home for few
months, and # it is wanted in Europe good and sub
stantial means will be found to pay for it before il
leaves our shores.
There was no mail received yesterday from beyond
Augusta, Ga. The Atlantic's mails, from Liverpool
will he due on Monday, Inthe meantime, the usua
quantity of reading matter will be found in oul
columns But should any Of our numerous readers
be troubled with ennui to-day we suggest that the,
embrace some Of the numerous opportunities foreav
ing the city which will offer, to take change of al
IN some Of the most pleasant and delightful region
at this time on this continent. There will be the ma
boat leaving for Pascagoula Pass Christian and Ba
st. Louis at u o'clock. The ayorite Creole leayin
for Ocean Springs, Biloxi Mississippi City, Pas
Christian and the Bay, at o'clock. The W. C.roun
and the Arrow for the delightful regions of til
at o'clock. Then there viii be the Coas
packets for Yicksburg Natchez, Bayou Sara, Bato
Rouge and all Coast landings, leaving at all hours
ter o'clock. There are three railroads which wi
convey al inland: tn fine, there are 50 many way
of getting out Of the city that we do not know whc
to recommend; but il all follow and our advice tn
evening, they viii find more enjoyment and pleasul
for the next foryeight hours than be attained

lakes and valleys north Of Mason and Dixon.s lin
including Niagara Falls, the lake disasters and I'll
abolition society Of Northern States.
