In all probability the stocks at the inland towns
will be pushed forward to market at once. Large re-
ceipts Of the new crop expected this month they
may come and they may not. The Arabia's advices
Of Middng Orleans will not warrant liz cts. in this
market, with freight at 3d., and exchange at 1904.
We hope in talking of these facts that we shall not
be called Bear. The most important argument or
consideration to occupy those engaged in the cotton
trade, and which will in all probability be para
mount subject the coming season on our great
thoroughfares and in general circles, will be the
capabilities and resources Of the cottongrowing re-
gion Of the United states-that is, how much cotton
how many millions Of pounds, or how many bales
over four and quarter millions, or 425O,OOO can be
produced with the present number of negroes,
laborers or force. qsF
There was some talk on the favorable weather. 1t
is hardly within the memory Of the Oldest inhabiant
that we have been favored with SO pleasant and
agreeable summer as the present. A few warm days
only have been marked in the meteorological and
thermometrical record. The sanitary condition of
the city never was favorable at this season of
the year in fact the general talk is, that we are
doing as well as other communities, in many respects
better.
The mails are irregular-they fail daily-no ac-
counting for it. No one to blame, it appears, only
the large number of passengers some of the North
ern routes, and many contractors can make more by
carrying travellers than they by mail receipts in
fact contractors with good fares of passengers,
can pay the paltry fine for mail failure every day in
the year, and make money by the operation. Take
the route between New Orleans and Mobile for in.
stance, full fare of passengers by the boats obviates
all losses from failures to deliver the mails according
to schedule. a....-

ANEoDorE OF A GREAT MAN.

"A strong interest always attaches to anecdotical
incidents in the career of men who have achieved
name and fame in the world, and we are quite per
suaded that the following anecdote will be resolved
with pleasure by our readers-and so we will to it,
without further delay.
Some nine years ago o gentleman who is now an
employee in the Crescent office happened to be pur-
suing the topographic art Of which be is practical
professor in the Office Of literary paper of Boston,
into the composition room of which rather seedy
looking gentlemen Of some thirty years Of age one
day entered with roll Of manuscript under his
arm, and inquired for the editor Familiarity accosting
the foreman, with whom he seemed to be well &C.
quainted. The editor did not happen TO be in and
the visitor returned from the vacant sanctum to the
compositors department, saying to the foreman
Do you know il the editor wants storya can
let him have enc cheap" The foreman replied-"I
don't know whether he does or not. What have you
got Y
Well, 2 said the author, taking the MSS from IN.
der his arm and displaying them on the imposing
sone here's Indian story, scene laid in the far
west plenty Of exciting incident, that will come to
about twenty dollars. Then here's an Oriental no.
velette laid in Turkey, reader is introduced to
the Sultan's harem, and all that, which will amount
to about thirty dollars, I think, and run through
about seven weeks, four columns each week. Here's
couple more novelties about the same length, ro-
mances Of life in New York aud in Paris, absorbing
and exciting, but I'll let them go for less than I
ought to have for the Oriental story which is of
the best ever wrote. wish you'd ask the editor if
he wants anything Of this kind. Tell him I'll give
him good bargain" After some further converse
ton the author rolled up his literary wares and de-
parted. After he had gone our narrator inquired
whose distinguished literary presence he had been in
and the foreman replied that the gentlemans name
was Sylyanus Cobb--now romancist inchief to Bon
ner and rather eminent character in the world of
LETTERS as of the brilliant galaxy who shine in
the columns Of the Ledger. Such little glimpses at
the early life Of illustrous men are very pleasant.
