Talk ON sChange.

The week opened very eheerfuTy yesterday. The
fine weather assists general operations. The talk in
commercial circles was, of course, cotton and ex
change nterlarded with little sweetening inthe way
of sugar which appears to be In active demand and
under good remunerative prices. That depot, or
landing, which has been the subject Of great COM
plant from sugar planters appears to be in most ex
cellent order, while sugar commands 81 TO 70. and "a
to &c. for fair to choice and moasses 20 to Sic. We
do not think we shall hear much about mud for these
prices are not of muddy" character, We learn
that some crops Of sugar. plantation are held
at y to Sc. s
The talk yesterday was of the extent Of the cotton
raised last year. There are many estimates. Many
parties have settled down 1900 900. others go
over and some few are below. Be the result what it
may, buyers have made up their minds and under
the present low rates of exchange and the stiffness in
freights, appear willing to Withdraw from the mar
ket unless concessions are allowed by factors The
weather is decidedly favorable for the preparation Of
the ground to receive the seed for the next crop.
The talk is what will be the increase Of ground
planted over last season Quim sabe?
The Europa's letters from Liverpool of the 20th
were received yesterday The imports Of cotton into
that port for the week ending the 10th, appear to
have been by accounts only 81 bales, other ad-
vices g. Well, will say e24 bales. This limited
quantity had Of great influence on the market.
The sales for five weeks up to the departure Of the
Europa, were $4,000 bales The London market
wa in full supply, with discounts on the Stock Ex'
change at the low rate of II to 2 per cent.
Our marine list denotes numerous arrivals yester-
day via the river with full loads OF produce from the
teeming West. The arrivals from sea are not in
sufficient number to depress freights, and further
advance Of any magnitude to foreign and coastwise
ports will have tendency to repress shipments from
the West though very great advance must take
place to equal correspond with one dollar pei
barrel for flour, which is the charge of transportation
via railroad from Pittsburg to Philadelphia.
Freights are tolerable low in NewYork. We notice
the engagement on last Monday of 900 bales cotter
for Liverpool at one eighth of penny, flour al
Is. 3d. per barrel and oilcake for London at lis Cd
per ton. These are very low rates, being considers
bic of difference between 3D. to ID. The latter wa
the current rate here on Saturday.
The Northern mail failed yesterday. The steame
North America from Liverpool Of the Sd inst is full
due at Portland. s-t

SERIOUS AFFAIR.--An unfortunate collision oc-
CURED in our city on Tuesday last, between Major
Ellis and his son, James Ellis on the one side and
James I. Hoeman on the other, in which ell of the

first struck Young Ellis in the face, and stabbed
this time they were separated, but soon after Hole
man assaled the elder Ellis with the same knife I;
whereupon regular cut and thrust fight ensued, in
which those three participated, and continued uutil
Hoeman was cut or struck down. The elder Ellis.
we informed, has some five or six cuts, none Of
which, however, are considered dangerous. Young
Ellis and Holeman are both badly injured, and their
recovery Is doubtful. The parties all live in the
country, and are the victims OF intempeFance,

HORRIBLE AFFAIR.-We learn from correspond
ent who has kindly furnished us recently with seye-
raj items of news, that horrible occurrence was
enacted in place called tie Windham settlement,
eight miles from Tmmonsville on the 4th inst.
1t appears that this place was one which was re-
sorted to for the purpose of drinking and negro
trading at all times-the Sabbath day not even ex-
cepted. A committee was formed by the citizens of
the district for the purpose of suppreng such places
of vice and iniquty On the 4h inst, about seventy
five men, armed, went to this place of resort for
drinking. The law breakers had been apprised that
the Vigilance Committee, so called, would be there,
and they Immediately armed themselves for . de-
tense, when one of the dcsperad0es fired, woandlng
one Of the committee. The fire returned, killing
| Caleb Freeman and Abraham Windham, and seriously
wounding E. A. Windham and Thomas Wlndham,
who we're living twenty-foar hours after the occur
renee Several others were wounded. Oi the vigil
lance Committee one was badly cut, and Is supposed
| to be mortay wounded Two others are wounded,
but onr correspondent did not ascertain whether they
| were considered dangerous Dr.. Hunter, OF Tim
monsvie was in attendance at the scene OF the dead
and diving jury of inquest was in attendance on
The 5th examining the witnesses in relation to the
| death Of Freeman and Windham.
| The above statement may be relied on, as the gen.
ftleman who furnished it was at the place the day
after this dreadful tragedy occurred-saw the dead
bodies-aIso those who were wounded-and obtained
| hi. facts from the physician in attendance.
