TALK ON 'cHANGE.

1t was rather quiet Carondeet street yester
day, nor was there much done in other localities
The chief topic about the storm and its effects
The advices from some of the parishes bordering
on the Mississippi river and down on the Lafourche
are Of the most gloomy nature. The estimates for
the yield of sugar are reduced as low as 10000
hogsheads. Not only the cane, but sugar-houses,
purgeries and dwellings have been blown down,
creating almost frightful losses to many individu-
ais cultyators of the soil. We have received very
few details from the cotton-growing section, other
than the rain has been unusually severe in fact,
the late storm one Of the longest and most Sc
we're since the year 1872. At that time there were
no large cotton fields with well-opened and snowy
bolls, nor no splendid sugar estates for the wind
and rain to operate on. True, there were some
diminutive fields of care which suffered, In 1919
there was another devastating storm, something of
the nature of the gale of Tuesday last; but the
effects in the interior were circumscibed, because
there were no large fields of cotton which it
could cast its blightng effects. The receipts of
cotton at this port that year were only 9 COO bales
The rapid strides in the cultivation of the great
staple can be duly considered. In the year 1920
we received at this port 1l6 900 bales; in 1859 we
received proper 2,l55,898 bales. In 1920 we re-
ceived 26,038 hhds. tobacco; in 1863 we received
80,955 hhds-though the receipts Of tobacco In
1919 were 3s $50 hhds. The increase in the cult
walton of tobacco has not kept pace with the King.
Some goodnatured individual has kindly asked

much difference. We have quotations OF eonsols.
The opinion is current that they will not aid our
money market for the present. Spectators or
would-be spectators and operators IN breadstuiis
appear to be very quiet. II several OF the New
