TALK ON ,oHANeE.


The European mails, or part Of them by the Amer.
ica arrived at Boston, were received yesterday morn
ing. The early part Of the day was devoted to the
perusal of the correspondence resulting in anything
but favorable talk afterwards. The chief talk Of
and many inquiries made Of llsreturned and notices
received Of non-acceptance Of others. The general
impression prevailed that very few bills have suffered
in which New Orleans is directly concerned-indi-
rectly there was less talk. Our private cor
respondence, however, is Of a much more favorable
import, and reads as follows:
LIVERPOOL, Jan. %, 1859.
do believe In the large estimates and receipts
fall off think probably estimates decline in which
with the present consumption continuing and
should have the continent yet see some
excitement in cotton The Of the Borough Bank against
your decided finally in favor Of the
plaintiffs This will doubt lead to suits against the other
Directors for very large sums.
1t was lively and active on the levee yesterday,
with several arrivals of boats Those from Red river
brought in small loads of cotton, that river the
Ouachita and Arkansas rivers, are falling, with
scarcely sufficient water for medium size boats The
stock Of cotton in the cotton presses warehouses and
on shpboard, keeps up above half million OF bales,
and the risks against fire are as large as ever be-
fore known. There is some talk of a cotton press
and warehouses being required in Algers. The
Belleville property be obtained for this purpose
II there is sugar depot over there, cotton press
must be an attendant. We have alluded to this SUBJ
ect before, and hope the citizens of Agers will move
in the matter. They must move in it themselves II
q company Of merchants was to go over there, and
talk Of cotton press, owners of property would ad-
vance their views one hundred y CT, and frustrate
the object at Come, Algerines, or citizens oi
the vsavis to New Orleans build your cotton press
and when the Opelousas Railroad is extended to the
care Of in one press.
There is some talk of probable change in the
laws regarding the inspection Of tobacco, provided
our Legislature ever gets to work. Many complaint:
have been made of the neciency of the present sys
TEN. Whatever changes contemplated, it is hoped
the former compulsory mode of inspection will not b
resorted to. The changes contemplated amount t.
this: That the inspectors shall in all instances breal
the tobacco in four different places lis this not fol
lowed under existing laws?) to draw the sample
from outside and inside layers They (the inspect
ors) are also to condemn all hogsheads exceeding iv
feet in length and fortytwo inches in the head, Q
made Of green material or sawed slaves les
than one inch thick as understandable, and subec
to a reduction of onehalf cent. per pound 70
these defects. Six good hoops, also, to be o
each hogshead. There are suggestions, such as til
inspector shall be responsible for any damage tha
the buyer may sustain after the tobacco is shippe
and leaves the port either in loss of weight by ba
condition. The talk is, the movement in this latte
respect cannot be carried out, for reasons which "
have not room to explain at this time, but we wi
"talk" on this subject again.
