SATURDAY MORNING, AUGUST IS l8eo
TALK ON CHANGE.


There was not much talk yesterday, commercial
nor financial. The gatherings on the aaas Of rue
Carondeet were few and far between. Very little
talk about cotton. The receipts continue free, and
in excess of last year and the year previous, but
fur below the receipts of August, 1866 1t will not
be safe to take the daily or weekly receipts up to
the middle Of September, (next montl0 as any
criterion to estimate the present crop; in fact, it
is too early for figures. OF course, it is hardly
reasonable to expect at this time--the very acme
of the summer dullness-that there can be much
talk on the flags. Though cotton factors are well
represented by junior partners and per pros, there
are several of our old established houses repre-
seuted in person by the heads themselves. This
augurs as though they had the real and general
prosperity of our city at heart. The talk occa-
sionally is, that there are great many old fogy
planters who are TO be found on their estates
almost every day in the 365 that when absent, it
is merely for jaunt to the metropolis to have q
chat with their merchant. As they remain at
home the greater part Of the year, it naturally fol-
lows when they correspond with their factors they
desire something more than regular weekly Price
Current. printed for FORMS sake They wish
real business or commercial letter from their
agent promising that he is an old established or
even young merchant and on hand at all times,
prepared for daily " TALK or chit chat, or for
good oldfashioned letter under his or their sign
manual. mz :@
The general talk is, that many thousands of
Southerners would have found it about as adyan-
tageous to have remained at home this season, ana
not aid in building up Northern watering places
and Northern cities Mas t'impo,te
Some Of the New York papers are remarking on
supposed crisis in the South, to be brought about
by the high rates of interest and scarcity of the
great needful in June and July. They begin to
think that with our millions Of cotton bales, we
are not so impregnable as we ought TO be. Pos
sibly these writers and others may have reasons
for thinking SO, when they observe how freely and
generally Southcners disburse their money in
every city, town and village North, aiding every
railroad company, and assisting every steamboat
line or monopoly North Of Mason and Dxon's line.
Not satisfied with taking the funds of our cosmopo-
Titan population, renewed efforts are being made
to encourage the shipments of cotton Eastward.
The shipments of cotton from Memphis no the
Ohio have increased largely the past year. Some
parts Of these shipments have been landed at
Cairo, and gone Eastward by the Illinois route
The receipts Of cotton at Cincinnati at our last
dates were n 800 exports, u 900 bales. A new
schedule of freights has recently been adopted
from Cincinnati Eastward, according to tile annex
ed table. This schedule went into effect on the

IHIBODEAEN, Aug. 10, 1850.
Ed Cfesceni-The Bell and Everett party are
making rapid strides in old Lafourche. I have
never yet seen such a revolution in public senti-
ment as is at present going on here.
The Union and Constitutional party have taken
the initiative towards political organization Thi-
bodeauX can boast of about as fine club as any
town in the State. Accessions are continually
taking place. His Honor, S. T. Grosamore, Mayor
of the town, is President and is untiring in his
efforts 10 advance the interests of the Union
party.
Last evening we had rousng meeting, there
being at least four hundred persons present after
a very short notice. In the morning placards were
posted about town to the effect that Col. Adolf
phus Olivier would address the Bell and Everett
club, and SO wild became the excitement to hear
him that tile clubroom was found to be entirely
too small to accommodate even one.thrd of the
persons who tooked in town to hear this distin-
guished Young orator, that arrangements were
made to procure the largest hall in town.
Before the hour of meeting, Messrs. Delas, Sons
4 Co.'s hall was literally crowded-many ladies
honoring the meeting with their attendance.
4. w. Blake, ESQ.,, our felloW-townsman "a
member of the legal profession) opened the exer.
eses of the evening by delivering short intro
ductory address, after which Col. Olivier followed
III his usual eloquent style, in favor of the prine
Piles of the Union and Constitutional party, hold
ing tho audience spell bound for at least two hours.
The meeting was as enthusiastic as it was orderly.
The Union cause is progressing finely in La
toulGhe New clubs are about being formed invari-
ous portions OF the parish, and the present ndca-
approaching election.

Undef tnls sChedate pressed cotton is put at the
same rate as fourth class freights, and uncom-
pressed 20 per cent. higher.
We give the above an instance of what they
intend to do. These rates are formed under the
suppositon that cotton is to be transported by
steamboats, up the Ohio river at a cost of about 81
per bale from Memphis to Cincinnati. But as the
Ohio river is liable to be DISTRACTED from ice and
low water for about four months out of twelve
there is not much apprehension entertained that
any large excess of cotton over last year will be
diverted to the inland route, compressed or not
compressed.
Adviees from Kentucky and Tennessee are at

that in Tennessee. The buyers i'll our market tie
Bears that arc to be-assert that half crop this

vices have been expected of the award of the con-
tract fOr the Spanish Government. The time for
receiving proposals was postponed to the 18th inst
consequently it will be some weeks before the
award will be known. In the meantime the stock
in this market is well maintained, and the holders
firm and steady.

SINGULAR DISPLAY OF ANIMAL AFFECTION Il
Aoakey'S attachment for Rdts.-One of the prin-
cipal objects of attraction at the Aquarium, in
Broomiield street, says the Boston Traveller, is
female monkey, that exhibits an extraordinary af-
fection for rats. She is one of the happy family'
belonging to the establishment, and soon after be-
ing placed there, conceived q fondness for rat,
that was also . member of the family. Upon every
occasion when she could catch the rat she would
hold it in her arms, fondling it as mother does
her child and caressing ii with every mark Of af-
fection. The rat soon began to like this Kindness
and would remain for hours in the arms of his
friend. Finally the monkey would not allew the
rat from its arms moment, even to feed, and at
last the pet was actually starved to DEATH The
monkey met this bereavement much in the same
manner as human parents do the loss of offspring
who have died in consequence of over-fondness,
with sobs and moans, and she would not be COM
forted.
For twelve hours she held the dead rat to her
breast refusing all the time to eat, take notice
of any other animals of the family At last
Mr.. Cutting took the rat from her by force, and
fearing that she would voluntarily starve herself
to death, he placed three other rats in the cage.
This addition to her family" brought the bereaved
animal to her Senses and the requisite to the
government of these pets takes up all her time,
and she is quite as cheerful ever before. She
is never for a moment without some one Of them
in her arms and frequently fondles two of them at
time. But the newcomers are not altogether
grateful for her attentions and most frequently,
,elnfh she is holding one of them, the others are
