New Orleans daily crescent. [volume] ([New Orleans, La.]) 1851-1866, 1860-10-31

There are now to arrive from foreign ports with
in the coming twenty days about as many more.
1t plain that we shall have abundance of ship
ping transport the products of the great West to
Europe Our Western friends can commence to
forward their grain and productions at once to
market This will be the best market for the next
six months. 1t will not be many weeks before the
transit from the West to Eastern cities will be in
terrupted from ice and general cold weather. A
real snoY-storm places an nterdict on railroads.
Therefore, we are justified in urging on Western
shippers merchants and farmers, one and all, to
send your produce to New Orleans. 1t will be sold
for cash. and at less charges than in New York. 1t
will not be placed in some warehouse to pay some
months storage. We have, therefore, to talk to
our Western merchants, traders and farmers-ship
to New Orleans We also take the privilege of
saying that you will want sugar and molasses, and
we would rather have your corn, wheat flour, pork
and bacon, in exchange for sugar, than steamboat
loads Of your bank issues. The bank notes or the
great currency of the Northwest will not buy
| hogshead of sugar nor barrel of melasses at the
sugar depot.
| There was some talk of movements in the weed.
Whether for local speculation or not, the operators
are mum. The quantity we alluded to in our last,
and few hogsheads over, have changed hands
within the past three days.
From Louisville we have the following accounts
of the early frost and its effects on tobacco They
are making too great demand on the eredulity Of
the tobacco trade when it is asserted that the
crops in the places indicated will not give more
than one-siXth of yield. As regards the advance
of one dollar per hundred, a half dozen large
operators can easily cause advance Of that ma
ture in any market
As we stated yesterday, the earlier frosts were
so light as to result in no serious injury to the
growing crop of tobacco but the frosts of Friday
and Saturday nights last were very disastrous to
the staple, to that portion, at least, which had moi
been housed. In the upper counties in which to
baeco is raised, the season has been more propiti
1 GUS than in the southern countless and in conse
quence of the forward condition OF the crop nearly
all Of it had been cut and housed before the ap
pearance of the severe frosts But in the counties
e Of Greene Monroe, Allen, Edmonson, Christian
Y Taylor, Metcalf, Cumberland, Warren, Hart. Lo

: Davies and Henderson, where the crop was no
. more than one.half an average yield, from one
: fourth to one-ha remained out and exposed to TIL
frosts and is of course rendered worthless. w
q conversed yesterday with intelligent and unpreu
diced planters from those regions, who full
II in the statement above made This fearful dan
age done by the frost, together with the unfavora
BILE season, has reduced the crops in the locaitie

The effect of knowledge of this falling off

S. tons.

u There was some talk of the weather being tc

+ Il, two weeks of similar warm weather would serious
t, iniure the cane. Mais, nous ue1wons. We des
k to hear of large crops; they pay better than sho
10 crops which can be mathematcally demonstrate

g the advance prices paid for short yield equalt
y. the low rates paid for a full yield. Moreover
looking over his fields, planter induiges in mo
a good humor, he feels well, dsburses with great

te are now talked about on our flags.
4 There is a great deal of talk, even in commerce
and financial circles, on politics; in fact; the pr
tie sent state Of the nation is brought up everywher
a. in the family circle, in the commercial rount
s. among the fnanciers: it even dsturbs the eel
S, per cent. gentlemen. In fine, Breckenridge a
Lane, Bell and Everett, Douglas and johnson, a
