TALK ON CHANGE.

The gatherings on the flags yesterday were few
and far between. There was a hold I'D in thf
pluyous weather which has prevailed for ten DAYS
PAST Ihefe.Was no rain yesterday, and the day
closed with fine norther, indicating that the show
ers OF rain are over for the present We have the
most favorable account of the cotton from the nm
lands and pine regions. Not drop too much rain
has fatlen and such cotton in some sections of M
| lands was never before seen. The South will be
able to furnish Europe with over four millions of
bales, promising thatwe refuse to let the Northern
or Black Republican States have the seven hundred
anu nifty thousand bales which they received last
| year. we entertain the view that we can furnish
| Europe With four millions of bales, averaging AGO
ponnds. we can commence furnishing this duan-
hty IN shert time after the European powers have
come 70 some decision on certain points and cues
items which are in Stdtat quo at this moment, It il
intended that Europe shall receive the three
quarters of million of bales heretofore sold to the
Northern manufacturers.
The liverpool and Hayre markets were more mr.
less affected by reports and accounts from this side
OF an amcable adjustment of troubles We can
not understand how they could anticipate any ad.
Justment following the message of the despots,
Lincoln u Seward. It is supposed by this time
they are in possession of information that there is
no prospect of an amicable adjustment; that ad.
3ustment is to be made by bayonets, riled cannon
and bowie knives. =.
Ihe late act of the Conederated Congress reuuir-
ing certain citizens of the Southern Confederacv to
take the oath of allegiance within forty DAYS, is
freely commented on and meets with the most
cheering appreciation. The time has arrived, in
TACT, the time arrived long ago. for the line to be
drawn, SO that it can be determined who are for
the South andswho are for the North.
II the meeting held at the Merchants, Exchange
on the 18th Of May last had been fully understood
our. enemies would not have been placed in oossas
sion of intelligence almost daily of the movements
Of our army and navy. The telegraph stations at
the Balize might have been retained IN our nossee
sion, and many other things might have been car
ried out, which have been thwarted by information
conveyed by Black Republicans in our midst.
These worthless are now taking the alarm, and are
leaving with all dispatch.
There are many people, say hundreds, yea thou
sands, engaged in business in our city and through
the South whosare known at this time to be- and
have been during the summer at the North; many
OF them spending the season there. If these citi-
zens are true Southerners, how comes It they are
away from home during this important crisis?
How do they stand by, as it We're, and hear the
denunciations hourly and infinitely, of the South
and It's independence? Are the hranches-co-
partners of many houses located in the Norlh--true
to the South? How is it these pseudo-Southerners
are regarded with SO much forbearance? Should
these quasi citizens of New Orleans be permitted
TO continue their business in our midst? How
many people known to be doing, or connected
with business in the South, are now in Northern
States, it viii be difficult to ascertain. The time
has arrived for authorities to ascertain who are
for the South and who are not. According to the
act Of our Congress, forty days are allowed to
solve this important question.
There have been bold andpresumptuous citizens
having two faces, a Northern face and Southern
face they possess the most unblushing effrontery
they are now soieurning ia every Northern State;
tiey possess The impotence and assurance of or |
quondam citizen, Arnold Harris !
Talking Of these citizens brings up questions of
Arnold Harris; whether there was ever 50 much |
consummate impudence and arrogance concocted |
II 50 few lines as the application Of this hybrid
neutral 70 Gen. Beaaregard, soliciting d permit 10
pass With his lines the deIectable efIision
ana after being refused, did actually pass within
his lines, was arrested and properly sent to Rich
mond as spy.
This Harris was resident Of or city, we regret |
