Noses en- Trade.

From ths New Orleans Pisayuns February 20l
Though We have arrivals from the West every
day or two, or two or three days, the landings
or leVes offsr very little fer remark in the way
Of trade and business. The receipts Of sugar
have been liberal under the circumstances. The
supply at the universal warehouse yesterday On
tho levee appeared to be large. Though 9 good
share might have been under engagements the
gimbIet rangers said the market was quiet. At
The last dates from New York direct, on the 6sb,
II is remarked that the crop Of Cuba was lats in
coming forward. Sales Of New Orleans were
rsuorted to the extent Of 6S3 hogsheads At pTi-
vsto sale, at II to l41e clarified at lot to 154
and l6O hhds by auction, on four months cred
Il. At IS 10 ID and I5c What would our factors
and brokers say to buyer on the leves offering
to saks . crop of sugar at ten or thirty days
credit, let alone four months Z Whether these
figures are encouraging for dealers and ship
peFs we eannot say, even under freight OF ten
York shillings per hid. hsncs for New York.
Molasses was frn in New York and Boston ct
sNsae dates; 1873 barrels were sold on the 5sh
iusk. ss 66 to roe, and 225 barrels old at Ga
down 10 55c or tour months credit.
OF course, under these rather depressing
prices, the depot from Canal street 70 Toulouse
street was rsther quiet than otherwise. The
heavy shower on Monday made the inspection
UNPLEASANT, aud the effects of the warm san
Yesterday were observable last evening. At the
upper or PoydEas street landing, there wss no
animation whatever. There spps4red to be
very little freight going on board the steamers
destined for the upper country. The great for
warding business Of days of yors is not IS yet
resnscitatsd. Il follows that the mass Of busi-
ness for the West must be made up of sugar,
molssses and salt. Cargoes Of coffee are not
available, and stocks of merchandise are nos

A Yankee Trick.

This community was not little surprised by
the arrival yesterday Of over eigh: hundred
Cfiesrs and men returned to as from the enc
mys country, as Paroled prisoners of wsr.
These gentlemen were as much surprised ct be-
ing seE. a5 ioeit friends were At their arrival,

soma month or 20 sgo, Butler, the Beast, sent
five or sx hundred men to City Point for e1-
charge, he 9as informed by Judge Ould, that if
he seat any more, without first arranging terms
Of exchange, none woald be delivered to him in

and men are sent, then, sppSreDtly Ss grAtuity.
What is the sIplAnshoni This, We think.
Butler knew that an attempt Was about 70 be
made upon Richmond, which, if it failed, would
uvolve she lives of all who might be captured.

This Was the saddest thing connected with the

In speaking Of the manner in which tho Con.

The rebel forces were skillfally handled, and
they came into the fight in sdnirsble order, and
fought with great energy and vslor. They

The DomOnssrasIsa en- DauphIn Isiand

We heard divers reports, during the bomb
ardmens of Fort Powell, of Yankees landing On
DAuphin island, of which the only one officially
authenticated was, that they made an sttemps
to land, bat Teconsidered il. We now learn
that, On that occasion, q boat with thirty men
started from one Of the bloekaiers outside, and
another was being lowered, when the trsops
which were lying, one hundred strong, behind
the sand hills, started to occupy nearer B0ins,
but were observed as tksy iRcsutiously passed
the gap between two of the hills, and the boat
wAs recalled. This occurred somewhere near
the end Of the timber.
From the beginning Q communication has
been kept up bsfWeen the inside and outside
feet across Dsuphin island spit, which is only
a quarter of mile wide. On one Of the fFst
days one Of the soldiers lying in the edge Of the
woods observed an officer passing, and bslisving
thst he could bit him, fred at hin. contrary 10
orders. Tho shot was unsuccessful, and the
enemy shslled the woods furiously fOE sons

We believe ell possible vigilance Is exercised
