Talk 'Change.
The major part Of the talk yesterday was on the
probability Of change in the weather. which, it is
supposed would be advantageous to the health Of the
city. There vas strong probability Of a change
last evening. OF course all our readers are aware
Shat rain commenced TO fall yesterday before the
close Of business but not till after there had been
some operations ii cotton, the market having re-
ceived something Of impetus by the character Of
the accounts brought by the Nova Scotia, which ar
rived at Quebec with dates Of the 22d ult from Liv
erpool. It will be seen that Middling Orleans is
quoted at 71d. This is below the currency in this
market However we are glad to learn Of an adj
vance, which will strengthen the result Of the pur
chases and shipments now on the way thither-
The receipts Of cotton yesterday were, by the B.
L. Hodge from yicksburg, 1852 bales Perret, ope-
lousas, 465 Red Chief, 0uaehita, SIS Leona Qua
Chita, AZ jackson Railroad, 730-tota, 3947 bales
The receipts for the corresponding day last year were
698s bales. The 0pelousas boat Anna Perret ar
rived on the same day last year with 239 bales.
With some trifing exceptions, the accounts regard
ing the picking season are of the most favorable ma
tnre. There was some talk yesterday that many
small planters, who have obtained advances in the
way Of supplies and acceptanees are representing to
their factors or merchants that their crops are only
turning out about onehaf Of their expectations and
that they viii require some indulgence, which, we
suppose, means till next year or until the growing
and gathering Of another crop. In the meantime
they are sending one-half Of what they have raised
to their regular faetor and the balance takes an
other course. The inquiry is made, is this SO We
cannot say but such orgetfulness has occurred very
often before and possibly the boil worm caterpillar
and IL some instances the dfouth are al called On to
support short yield, and prove the deficient means
towards settling old balances, The further talk is,
