allels 81 north latitude. This highly interesting
and valuable work, beautifully illustrated with highly

minerals, etc.
Talk on 'Cl,nnge.
s. Yesterday was another quiet day on the street.
The usual gatherings at the corners have not yet
COMMENCED. On the 1evee there is some activity =
some evidence Of returning animation. Several YES
sells from Northern ports, as well from European,
are fully due and it will not be long before we shall
have the pleasure Of chronicng the receipt of heavy
stocks ii merchandise Of every kind and description.
Every boat from tie West brings or less of our
returning citizens Glad are they to get back again.
v Cotton, it will be perceived, is coming in very
slowly however, it is coming in sufficiently fast for
BUYERS, as there are very few returned yet There
il ono great barrier at this moment intervening to
rapid sales even if the cotton was in marketthat is
the difficulty in placing inland exchange. 1t is a
ooted question, where there is sufficient money here
at this moment to move large quantities of produce
The panic in New York seems to exert an influence
Just at this time which the closest scrutiny in
all operations 1t is the opinion change that this
that as it may we believe in our cotton bales and
hogsheads of sugar We are willing to sink or hoat
with them So croakers, alarmists and agitators, one
and all can close up at once. There is just as much
money in the country to-day as there was twelve
months ago. Though considerable coin has been sent
out of the country say to Europe to pay interest on
railroad State and other bonds yet the productions
Of the mines in California have fully balanced the ac-
count, and though we hear great deal of large and
costly mportations, particularly of dry goods let
those who desire to expend two dollars for splurging
pomposity and show, where one will answer for
modest course, sweat and suffer forit. Those who de-
sire to indulge in costly apparel and expenditures
must pay for it. The bone and sinew of the country
will not suffer from their injudieiousness While in
uging in these few IDEAS some one asks us what we
think OF cotton? Yes, that everlasting inquiry,
20 what do we think Of cotton follows US every
where. 1t is cotton in the morning it is cotton at
midday and it is cotton at nights in fact, it is cotton,
cotton, cotton. Now, then, we beg to be excused
cannot eat cotton and it is too early in the picking
season for us to figuring but the Europa's
advices from Liverpool up to the 18th are favorable,
but they come on almost vacant market. The sales
for the week are enormous unless there are errors
in figures We shall not know positively till the cor
respondence is received, and that will not be before
the 18th inst. 5s8 as yF
THE MAILs.--The Northern mail via Mobile failed
yesterday from beyond Montgomery yet the placard
at the Post-Ofice said the mails by the Vanderbilt
were received? How is this? Why were not the
mails received yesterday? The Vanderbilt arrived at
New York on the 3D. and the mail yesterday brought
dates Of that day and where are those mails by the
Vanderbilt that they did not come to hand? What
hocus pocus do contractors intend to palm off on the
PostO ce Department as an excuse in this instance
