SATURDAY MORNING JANUARY 81, 1857.
Trade and the Malls.

The week ia closing in most respects very satisac.
toriy. In fact, we do not hear any complaints, ex-
cepting among some few individuals who were born
never to be satisfied. Since Monday last the weather
has been remarkably mild, encouraging our Western
merchants to expect an early resumption of inter.
course with the West. Other than the telegraphic
adviees which we have received, we are not aware
that solitary item of Intelligence has come to hand
from that section during the present week. We are
pretty certain none of Mr.. Postmaster General Camp
bells contractors have condescended to deliver any
mail bags. As for communication with the Atlantic
cities, that appears to be closed We informed
last evening that the Northern mail failed again YES
tefday at Mobile, so we need not expect mail to-day
This will make nine mails due here this morning
Tomorrow being Sunday, "a mail will not be OF much
service to the commercial community, SO by Monday
there may be eleven mails behind. This will do for
the nineteenth century. y ,s,...74.s -als d
There was not any great activity in the general
market yesterday. No disposition was evineed for
large transactions unless at reduced rates every one
is waiting for the mails. There was 50 great differ
ence in the teegraphc dispatches of the account of
the Liverpool markets by the Arabia that general
disposition exists to put off operations in cotton until
more reliable aceounts are received; but there are
o'JSA' Va sAHaei5o iSSuy W iAoft oi tfiotutf iaH
here, which cannot be far off, as late private tele-
graphic dispatch from New York quotes best sterling
at ST. and that as soon as the eight mails, which are
due this city arrives, rates will go down to s. We
think it is likely for there were large amounts of
bills in these eight mails We think our merchants
would do we'll hereafter to establish regular private
express, something after the plan adopted by Amos
Kendall, when Postmaster General, who got his ex.
4 vor
from two to three days in advanceof the regular
mails. Our good city was never (under his admins
tration of the PostOfice Department) eight and ten
days without mail. Contractors were compelled to
comply with their contracts. -.,s ! =. :. -
