OF A short time ago the Govern
nent Engineer selected site for forth
fication on Long Island, and agreed upon
the price Of the land with the owner at
$4,000. Some spectators hearing Of
the transaction, stepped in before the sale
was consumated, and boughtit for $780,
600, and then went on to Washington
and persuaded the Government to give
them 100000 for it, thus pocketing
$4,000, and robbing the United States
of $4,000. The Government always
sells property at half its value, and buys
at double its worth.

FROM New OnLraxs.-we are in.

FROM NEW ORLEANs.-We are in
debted to Mr.. HOwes for the latest New
Orleans papers. There had been q great
excess Of rains, and serious injury to the
cotton crop from it. For the last two or
three years. some few bales of new cot
ton have found their way to market be-
tween the 10th Of July and the LIST Of
August. Up to the 9Th inst. not a sin
gle matured boil had been seen in the
fields of Louisiana or Alabama. This IS
taken as demonstration that the present
years crop is two or three weeks later
than usual. The following " talk on
Change" gives the business impressions
Of the day:
Several boats have arrived with western
produce, and there has been some activity at
the steamboat landing. There will be large
receipts OF western produce next month, pro-
vidcd navigation continues in the present
condition. Of breadstutfs we expect larger
receipts tn, coming season than ever before.
The receipts OF flour the present year are, up
to this time, two hundred thousand barrels
above the quantity received for the CORE
| spending period last year. Of grain, there
has been a falling Oft in corn and oats. In
| wheat there is a decline of about seventy
| thousand bushels, in quantity reaching
| eighteen hundred thousand bushels. In hay
the receipts have fallen, from short crops in
the west and north, from one hundred and
nineteen thousand bales to forty thou-
sand bales. This will, in all probability. be
made up, aud more than made up, the COM
ing season. out of the very heavy crops gath
cred tbs summer in the northern and west
| eru States.
The accounts from the interior regarding
the weather are Of too much rain. Cane is
doing very well; but we may expect gloomy
accounts regarding cotton, if the weather we
have had for two weeks past continues OF the
same character for another week. Ten days
| sunshine would lead to the hope Of an aver
| age yield of cotton. Without it, our dear
friend Mr.. Bull will find himself in rather y
tight place by the 3lst December of the pres
! ent year. Cotton Supply Associations, New
Zealand fax, Demarara product, lndia's vast
producing qualities, and all available re-
sources, without abiding to the insurrection
in India, will all be required to prevent Mid
ding advancing to lOd. by the last OF the
| year. We await, with some degree of inter-
est, the accounts from Liverpool of the LIST
of September prox. We fancy that the i'm
porters OF Liverpool will have the call about
that time, and bag the game. Manchester
will have to succumb; of this there is not a
doubt. With every prospect OF the m rket
opening here at l5c. or above, we should like
| TO know what Manchester and its Cotton
Supply ASSOCIATION will dol IL 10 well enough
TO speak plain ut times; therefore, We have
only to intimate to Man .hester spinners that
if they want Cotton this season, they mus
pay American prices for it; and one or two
seasons more OF the same character as 1850
and 1857 will open Mr.. Bulls eyes regarding
African labor.
