TALK ON CHANGE.
The accounts from Europe brought by the steamer
North Brton had no effect on business yesterday If
affairs were really more pacific on the goth ut. in
Europe, how is it that have decline in cotton to
announce? We do not look on these pacific accounts
| with favor. As we regard an appeal to arms as
settled thing sooner or later pass over the general
talk hoping that the warriors that to be will go
to fighting at once, end all conjecture and dspel ex
citement. This backing and filling every week is be-
coming to be a real bore The commercial accounts
by the Brton not so favorable they ought to be
to protect the cotton now going thither from large
losses. General Wright, in his last weeks circular,
forwarded to Liverpool for the edfcation of those
shrewd and sharp gentlemen in Manchester speaketh
| as follows say under date of the 26th ult:
| The disappointing news brought per Arabia has
had an adverse influence throughout the whole of the
cotton markets Of the country. The advces from
this side, connected with the small stock held in
| Liverpool were confidently calculated upon to pro-
duce favorable effect there, and not until the Arabia
arrived has this anticipation been modified. It is
generally supposed that for the time political matters
| will override present influences from this side, and
the consequence has been that in the Upland mar
| kets, where the pts most copous owing to
the transfer Of stocks from the interior towns the de-
cline has been }@3c. u fb, and business is almost at
q stand.
| The General also says that the interior stocks are
being exhausted that the receipts in May last year
were rather large for the season. The General must
| have exhausted his opinions and estimates, we
have not observed any figures of the expected guam
| tlty for some weeks past. Never mind, General,
there will be fine opening for the Bears in October
next. There very few left in this latitude at pre-
| sent-shedding season is passing, and we have
| large number OF Bulls of various ages, and few
Bears in chrysalis state waiting for "cheap cot
| ton.
| The further talk was OF the many persons depart
| ing daily. The new route via Memphis, thence by
railway to any point of the compass, appears to be
greatly appreciated Frst-cass steamers leave every
other day for Memphis, direct. To this may be added
the st. Louis line of unrivaed packets then the
great packets in the Louisville trade Then there are
many fine vessels bound direct for Havre and Liver
pool on board of which to be found the very best
of packet accommodations, worthy of the highest
considerations. Moreover, patronizing these vessels
will be encouraging direct trade. Then the route via
the Jackson Railroad continues in full operation twice
day, that there actually conveyances and op-
portuntes for leaving our city almost every hour in
the day. The water from the Bouligny crevasse hay
ing encroached on the railroad. the steamboats, A. G..
Brown and Selma have been engaged to run in con-
nection with the road from Lakepor end of the efer-
son Railroad, starting from Tivoli Circle The dis
tance to travel by steamboats, will be % miles to the
Pass Manchac, then FIVE to seven miles up the pass
to the bridge. The connection will be continued all
| the way through the same as though the cars were
running the entire distance. The hour of departure
from the Circle is fixed at o'clock in the morning
and 5:20 P. NJ The talk is, that some travellers will
require breakfast somewhere, and o'clock is rather
an early hour to obtain it in the city. A person
might ms well depart without pockets as without a
full stomach therefore, it is suggested that breakfast
be furnished on board the boats, which meets with
the general talk, though extra charge. The A. G.
Brown is neat boat came out this season and built
for the lake trade via Pearl river.
The mails were received via both routes yesterday.
The Niagara will be fully due at Halifax to-day and
we may have the accounts tomorrow.
The PRISON OF WELTUREDEN AND GLANCE
AT THE EAST INDIAN ARCHIPEL AGo."-This is the
title of a large and handsome volume laid on our
table by the author, Capt. Walter NJ. Gibson. It is
illustrated by original sketches which afford interest
ing glimpses of Javan life and scenery, the writer's
experiences in connection with which were of very
checkered character as the public well aware for
his adventures in that faroF tropic island were OF
loud notoriety few years since. The book is pleas
antly written, and detailing much that is strange EN-
ertaining and instructive will be found a most agree
able companion. Captain Gibson will lecture in this
city and conceive that the inducement is strong
to hear from the lips of who has seen life in such
extraordinary phases the romantic story of the NOV
ing incident which befel him.
Byrelerring to correspondence elsewhere published
it will be seen that the Captain has accepted the in
vitation of the Young Mems Christian Association
and that he will deliver one or more lectures on the
East Indian Archipelago at Armory Hall-the first to
be tomorrow night. Judging from the ability which
chaacterzes the book before u.s. and the favor with
which his lectures have elsewhere been received,
treat may be anticipated.
