TALK ON CHANGE.

There were larger gatherings ON the flags yester-
day. The early part of the day was somewhat
cooler than usual. There were several members
of the body of brokers observed, they having re-
turned from their jaunts over at the sea shore SUI
burbs, Some of them look as though they had en-
joyed themselves, and that the bivalve and fishing
banks had been discountng freely; in fact, they
look well.
The European mails by the Arabia came through
yesterday, as soon as they were expected. The
private correspondence reads, of COURSE more
favorable. As the Liverpool fagites and specu-
lators have secured some few hundred thousands
of bales of the staple at low prices, an advance
may of course be expected by every steamer until
Middling Orleans reaches I'd. This figure, OF an

statistical tables of the utmost value to all interest

The readers of the Crescent will all remem-
ber what these Statements have been, and the
great circulation they were given, at home and

pridihg ourselves somewhat upon this knowledge.
We scarcely need add that the Crescent this year,
if possible. will eclipse all former ones, in pre-.
senting the ablest Financial and Commercial State

being too early for them to appear, there are very
light sales made from day to day, taking the large
stock into view
The receipts of cotton yesterday We're light; the
Jackson railroad brought in two hundred and sixty
three bales. The yicksburg will be due to-day,
also the Fort Adams packet. The Natchez will
be due on Friday morning, and on that day at 2
o'clock the tables and figures of the year Is59-60
will be closed. About the 18th or 18th of Sep
tember we shall receive the making.ap of the
great crop of 1859 from New York.
There are many complaints about the Pontchar-
train railroad. Some aggrieyed one sends us a
communication, but as he chooses to withhold his
name we decline to publish his complaints. An
other correspondent inquiries: If the cars with
freight and baggage can go down to the pier
head, why not the passenger cars, to receive, if
no others, the women and children who are now
arriving daily2 1t is particularly disagreeahle to
have to walk from the place of debarkaton, in the
wet damp and rain, to the cars opposite the hotel.
Another correspondent suggests that when the
country is desired, to take the jackson railroad
| aud go into the pine woods; there are no crowd
| ed overloaded boats in that direction. We beg
our friends not to send us any more complaints, as
we are very much engaged at the present time
neither can we publish any communication unless
| the author sends us his name.
