- In some remarks on the business
of that City, the NeaO Orleans Daily
Picayune of Wednesday last, has the
following truthful statement, in refer
ence to the Stock Trade: a.
"Many branches of legitimate bust
ness in this city, that employ a large
amount of capital, make no figure in
any reports of our trade movements.
In making up digest of our Southern
products it has come to be habit to
include little Or nothing which is con-
sumed in the country. Hence most Of
the cereals and all"of the vegetables
and fruits produced, fail to make their
appearance in list of our home pro-
duction.
tsFor a similar reason, perhaps, no
note is taken of the receipts of cattle
and other stock that form large item
in the daily consumption of our citizens.
This business lis almost exclusively con-
centrated about the stock-landing, sit
uated just above the line of the Fourth
District. There every species of live
stock is landed, from whatever quarter
it may be brought. From that point
our, l1utchers get their entire supply of
meats for population of 100000 souls
ssIM 1850, soon after this business was
concentrated at the present Stock Land
inG the first cost of stock that was re-
quired to supply the wants of our popu-
lation reached one million of dollars.
Tue increase during each of the ten
succeeding years, up to the present
time, has been steady, until the opera
n
millions of dollars. Ten years ago we
Tennessee, Indiana and Illinois For most
begin to lead in this species of product;
though our best beef still is from the
stall fed cattle of the West
The completion Of the Opelousas and
Great Western Railroad, SO as to open
the prairies of Texas to our market,
will effect q most decided change in
our receipts. Over that great line of
communication our main supplies will,
| at no distant period, be brought. The
| prairies of Louisiana will also become
sources of production that will vie with
any other part of the country.
1.-The stock market of this city is one
of the curiosities of the place. It's ar
| engagements are SO perfect that the vast
business transacted is carried on with
out display; and considering the quiet
of the place, the aggregate amount of
the capital used is astonishing. In the
stable, or in droves near by, may be
seen, at almost any time, representa-
tives of almost every description of
stock produced in the West aud in the
| Southwest. The effect of stall feeding
and of cultivation for the shambles is
! witnessed. The improveIc:entin breeds,
by the introduction CT blooded animals,
is apparent. A visir will show the char.
acter of the meat we eat, and whence
comes the supply for 100000 souls.
''This is but one illustration of the
| neglect af which we are unconsciously
guilty in making up a report of the
| business of this city. Hundreds of
items of Industrial pursuits might be
! specified That scarcely find their way
into any body of statistics that may be
sought by the City, State, or General
Government, and we consequently are
rated as centre of trade far below our
actual relative position.
AS IT SHOULD BE.-We are glad

Suffice it that the present anarchical ana

is the result Of their political creed.
He goes on, however, 10 assert that
Don Jose Lago "a gentleman of wealth,
and educated in Europe) is the Leader OF
of the Liberal party. Admitted; as states

the military leader of the Liberals, ne as
serts, is superannuated, has retired from
public life, has no political aspirations, no
political party, ell of which is untrue
However, he admits that Cabanas mas

Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague, Re
mittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Head
ache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed for the
whole class of diseases originating IN bill
iaTy arrangement, caused by the Malaria
Of miasmatiC countries.
No one remedy Is louder called for by the ne
cessitics Of the American people than a sure and
safe cure for Fever and Aguc Such we are
now enabled 10 offer, with a perfect certainty
that 1t Will eradicate the disease and with as
surancc, founded on proof, that no harm can

That which protects from OF prevents this dis
order must be Of immense service in the cOmIu-
mites where 1t prevails. Prevention Is better tlan
cure, for the patient escapes the risk which he
must run in violent attacks of this baleful dis
temper. This " CURE" CNpcls the miasmatic
poison Of FEVER AND AGUE from the system and
prevents the development Of the disease if taknr
the first approach of its prCInOnitOrv symptoms.
1t IS not only the best remedy ever vet discovered
for this class OF complaints, but also the cheapest
The large quantity supply for a dollar brings il

districts, where FEVER AND AGUE prevails, every

other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure Of IlteTmittents Is that it contains Quine
or mineral, consequently it produces no quinsm or
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu-
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy az if
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence Of
the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disorders
arise from Its irritation, among which are Neural
gia, rheumatism, GOut, Headache, Blindness
ToOthache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpitation,
Painful Affection of the Spleen Mysteries, Pain in
