This Governor Humphreys has done
In proclamation dated the Sth of
January. announcing the termination
OF the blockade, and demanding the
delivery of the cotton within ninety
days. The press of Mississippi are
divided IN opinion as to the propriety
OF this course of the Governor, and
the case is certainly one that presents
knotty questions. The notes, if is
sued In aid of the war, cannot be
redeemed by, the State, and it would,
in that event, get the cotton for no.
thing. On the other hand, the plant
ers certainly received the benefit of
the advance, and if the notes were
repudiated, the loss would, to some
extent, fall upon them, and probably
to greater extent upon merchants
and other third parties. Much of the
cotton was undoubtedly destroyed by
order either of the Confederate au-
thorities or the military power of the
United States, and the planters have
no other means wherewith to respond
to this demand. Moreover, no State
had the right, under the Constitution
OF the United States to emit bills of
credit, which is generally interpreted
to include treasury notes, and the
cotton may get be liable to seizure by
the United States authorities, if given
up to the Governor as the property of
the State. We mention these points

New ORLEANs.-We quote from the latest
New Orleans papers: The Times says that
was attended with marked steadiness. We
regret to learn from the same source that
the proposals for the 1,000, 600 of loan 20
the State, for bonds payable in twenty
years, with 8 per cent. per annum interest,
secured by the pledge of 500, 900 acres Of
than the proposed loan, has not attracted
the attention of capitalists. This loan was
intended to be applied to the rebuilding of
ti-e levees, we believe, and the failure Of
the negotiation is more to be deplored in
consequence. The Times says 'sit was sup
posed there would have been some lenders,
as high as 80 at least
The movement in cotton was continued
with increased spirit, and nearly {, 900 bales
were taken the day previous at formerly
quoted rates. Supplies Of Western produce
and provisions were still light. The stock
Of -four was very small, with a good local
demand, and prizes were tending upward.
Corn was in request, with no stock in store,
and prices were steady at a range Of s1.074
OSLO. We have not room in to-days
issue for the commercial summary, and
will briefly give quotations. Flour, s7.75@

Alludiag to the prospects of the crops,
the Times says that if /, ,000, 900 of bales Of
cotton are grown in the United States the
present year, it viii be as much as cnn DO
expected, admitting the freedmen comply
with their engagements. 1t was supposed,
last spring, that 100, ,0GO hogsheads ofsugar
would have been produced in Louisiana.
Ii one-eighth Of that quantity is realized,
or one-sixth, it will be all, notwithstanding
the season was most auspicious.
