Shreveport, Tuesday Evening Dec 90
The movement in the leading staple since our last
weekly review has been quite active at full prices The
advance for the week has been about 1c We quote
follows frCm the New Orleans Times of the 18th inst
The late freeze has undoubtedly ended the seas S
picking, and 1t is apprehended that considerable
amount has been lost from unopen bolls, and other
wise. Hence many parties have lowered their esti-
mates Of the crop; those who admitted 100 600 bales
are now putting down their figures to $500 or less
all Of which, it is admitted by Liverpool circulars, will
be absolutely wanted" We annex the opening and
closing rates for the week, based-on low middling:

Shreveport, Dec So 1858.
As was to have been expected, the holidays have
sadly nerfered with the wholesale trade in all its de-
partments For the few days before Christmas it was
very brisk, and we look for return of it after the ho
idays The retail trade with the freedmen for
the past week was of very remunerative character
but the show business carried off the q blue ribbon
with all ease. Money for the movement of cotton cat
tle hides, &c can be had in any amount on gltedge
