A New York exchange says of cotton I:
"Great financial agencies work silently,
but they are most potent in their effects.
Recently, we have witnessed a succession
of cotton failures in this country and in
England, amounting in the aggregate to
several millions @sollars, and the full
effects OF the depression of the cotton
trade have not yet been fully developed.
In this city there are large amounts Of
protected cotton bills, the aeceptors Of
which are not yet announced in the list
Of insolvents, and upon which the hold
ers decline 20 take action lest the depnes-
sion. should spread into panic and induce
numerous failures. 1t appears not 20 be
generally understood that this condition
of affairs is due to the dependence of our
commerce upon the discount facilities of
the bank OF England. That Institution
has, for some time past, persistently de-
clined 70 discount the bills Of cotton mer-
chants.
What may be the reasons of this ex-
traordinary course we know not. 1t may
be that Manchester, desiring to have
CHEAP cotton, has prevailed upon the d.
.rectors OF that Institution TO withhold
the facilities enabling merchants 20 carry
cotton. Or &c may be that, imagining
cheapacetton Co be an essential to the re-
newal Of active orders for yarns and
goods from the continent of Europe, the
bank has taken this course as q step to-
wards ~invigorating the continental trade.
Or it may be that thinking cotton IN
reasonably high, the managers deem
cotton paper uasafe 20 discount; only IN
that case, it would seem singular that
The bank should have discounted cotton
oaner faresc long during the ~Erevieus pe-l
Rod Of the decline in price.
But whatever may be the cause of It's
action, Us effect has proved most baneful
to the cotton trade; and theiHjury is not
confined to the merchants and bankers
of this country, but extends equally to
the great mercantile interestof Liverpool
The ,snk Of EneIand ought to be the
nest indge Of its own action; but to our
view its course in this respect appears
very short sighted The oank being ina

the upper streams are doing likewise.
The Ohio is also declining rapidly at

there was five feet i've inches on the

The Arkansas at Little Rock came TO a
stand on Tuesday night, the river being
then two feet below the late high water.
When the Celeste came out ON Wednes-
day the rise toward the mouth was still
going on, and the planters were in dan
ger of being overfiowed. Great attention
was required to keep the levees from
breaking, and much destruction is immi-

point the river rose a very little in the
past twenty-four hours, and will no doubt
be at a stand this morning. IL Is now
thirty-three inches below high water
