/ FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH so, 1860.
TALK ON CHANGE.
Nothing of an important nature turned mp on the
| flags yesterday. There might have been some
turning down Of paper, nevertheless, the financial
| market moved along very smoothly, though at
rather skinning rates. There was some talk about
the large operations in cotton for three days past
| under the depressing advices from England. This
/ ia nothing new our market has time and again
been agitated in the same way, large sales follow
4 ine the intelligence of decline in Liverpool The
general freight market, for foreign and Atlantic
ports, had heavy feeling yesterday. Not that
rates are expected to decline any lower, for it is
supposed and talked Of that d for cotton to Liver
/ pool ia about us low any conscientious shipper
1 can expect from this port. Well, what IS con-
4 scientious shipper asks some one? Well, sure
enough, what is it? However,ia halfpenny may
earn sufficient to enable some shipowners to show
at the end Of the year new dollar for an old one
and II they should have fair run Of freight home
ward, they may clear get, but that is extremely
doubtful after giving new coat Of paint.
