TALK III Change.
With tie very fine weather of yesterday, it could
hardiy be expected that other than good feelings
prevailed barring Of course, the numerous notices of
funerals and deaths which were ported here and
there reminding all who appeared to lie 50 lively and
animated that the sickness is still hoterng over our
devoted eity The talk was diversified yesterday
from fever to cotton from cotton td the weather.
from Tie weather to exchange, paper and money
There was something said Of the medical skill or pro
fessioal talent Of city Ithas beRn the received
opinion that the medical profession Of New Orleans
embraced large share Of learning Skill and talent,
edaaIled but by few and surpassed by none in the
world but We are constrained to repeat that the talk
faculty has been very unfortunate in the general
management Of the disease now prevailing. Whether
the medical skill and earaing Of hecountry can be
called science, isa matter Of great dtubt. Some ex.
pressions are made that it is ridiculous to term what
Wesea daily III the profession meddaI science. In
the meantime We feel gratiaedi in believing that the
epidemic an te decline. This is manifest from the
moftuary reports. We must, however, caution our
absent citizens nom returning at once, The first of
November win he run time for safety. 81 much
about the Sickness
Though TIC cotton market was adtiye yesterday,
prices ruling last week were not attainable yet u
cents for Aiiddlings pays the grove we'll. The re-.
eeipts yesterday were from Bayou SARA 500 bales !;
Red Chief, from Harrlsonbnrg 799 Anna Perret,
from 0peloasas, 445 jackson Railroad, o59-total,
2,s68 bales The receipts for the corresponding day
last year were 879 bales.
It is not often that we look for any estimates or
views Of cotton from Virginia The following figures
we take from late Norfolk paper. Whether the cor
respondent is Bull or Bear we cannot discover or
whether LIE il not some operator from New York in
disguise, ne cannot discern who spreads his views
after having purchased few tlloaRand bales and
shipped tor Europe. Il viii be seen he gives Great
Britain only 100000 bales out Of the crop Of 1865
