We have pile Of New Orleans papers this
morning, from which we learn that the
weather is Awfully hot, and the supply of ice
very limited-the Louisiana Ice Works not
being able to supply the demand, we take it.
Some eight or ten vessels were on the way
from Boston with cargoes Of the frigid mate
rial, and their arrival was anxiously awaited.
The old Tudor Company, which adequately
met the wants of the community in regard
to this matter, is remembered kindly.
The movement in cotton was renewed with
increased spirit, and with increased prices
for better qualities. Sales summed up nearly
three thousand bales at thirty and forty -one
cents for qualities ranging, according to clas.
sidcation adopted in that market, from strict
ordinary to middling About half dozen
bales of the new crop were sold The weather
was fine for picking, and the early receipts
look we'll.
A meeting Of Lafourche planters had been
held at Thibodeaux, to discuss the Brazil
emigration subject. They expressed the ap-
prehensOn that the cultivation of the sugar
cane would have to be abandoned for the
want of laborers, and that ninety. nine
chances out Of a hundred are against the sue
cess of the cotton culture. A generl culti-
vntion of corn they thought would overstock
the market and ruin the planters.
The Pieayuns thinks that the planters
should not abandon their estates and their
country; but should, as a class, concert meas
ures to invite the emigration of laborers who
can be depended on.

they were very desirous to enlist captured
crews, and in some instances they were very
successful in obtaining them.
