dull and gloomy times had never before been
known in their city, and must say that l never
before found the city quiet and exhibiting such

but i these times continue they must suspend.
Stocks in Boston are declining slowly, that is bank
stocks, but stock OF railroads coming into Boston
keep up wonderfully high. | think most of the
cotton, wooden and iron manufacturers Of New
England will have to stop before long, and thus
throw ther hands out of employment. This is
going to be hard winter for New England she
has got to suffer, and she ought, and all others who
contributed to bring about this state OF things. My
prayer to Cod is that the clergy of New England Of
the free States will now be brought to reckoning
They are mischevous class Of men, and have
done more during the last thirty years to bring
about the present state Of affairs Of the country
than any other class, and now the d1'oaeS ought to
be made to smell that he'll about which they have
preached SO much for others. When ministers turn

FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER q, 1860.

TALK ON CHANGE.


Things in general were going on very smoothly
yesterday Following the opening of business,
cotton would have been taken freely at prices pre-
valing the day before. Shortly after 10 o'clock a
"canard" was started that cotton had advanced
one-half penny per pound; that private adyices
had been received in New York, brought by the
Atlantic, from southampton, of tie 5th inst. But
somehow OF another two steamers have been be-
fore reported-one Of the 5th, from Liverpool, the
other of the 9th, with dates from Londonderry to
the Tth By neither of these steamers has anybody
been advised of an advance Of ID. per pound for
the week ending the 8th inst. That an advance Of
I'D. might have taken place, in ordinary times, is
not disputed; but it is making too great demand
on the credulity of cotton buyers to ask them to
believe that rise equivalent to one cent per pound
was going on during the week ending the oath of
November. Consequently, the result of the i" ca
nard" was general withdrawal Of buyers, prelimi-
nary to which was tile advanced pretensions on
the part Of fdetora and agents. 1t was surprising
to witness the excitement and high.wrought ex-
pressions on this "canard" of 3D. being made
known on the flags. Up to the close of business
and late in the evening there was no one ready to
father or assume the responsibility of the dspatch--
say 71d. for Middling Orleans on the sth inst. on
the Liverpool flags.
In our talk yesterday, in aluding to sterling
and the shipments hither Of gold the types got the
word " instituted in place Of inhibitedr-a very
material difference in thereading Of the paragraph.
The receipts of cotton yesterday were light than
otherwise The last Apalachicola Price Current
gives the receipts of the main Florida ports At
Pensacola the receipts have increased largely over
last year The cotton received at this point has
hnr rama tn Mabila and Ana t.,
another year Pensacola will have to be considered
shipping port, and regularly entered in the tables
of exports and receipts, presuming that the rail
road progresses in the interior.
