Shreveport, September ~, 1862 {
The receipts of cotton have been
gradually on the increase, though
it has occurred to us that our bust.
ness houses have not been selling
as largely as might be supposed.
In view of the rapid decline of the
river and corresponding elevation
of the rate of freights, it would be
the part of wisdom for our plan
tiers to make their purchases as
early as possible.
At our last weekly report, we
left cotton: Good ordinary 268 to
q and low middling 274c. It is
idle to speculate as to the why's
and wherefores, but so it was the
staple has been gradually settling
down, and many who profess to
know think the end is not yet. 1t
would seem that a reaction should
follow the conviction, which is
rapidly gaining ground, that the
crop will be little if any larger
than that of last year. It is known
that there is deficiency of nearly
half q million bales, in other words
that it would require that excess
over the last years crop to place
cotton in the same position it was
then in. However, there are so
many influences constantly bro't
to bear, that, as we have before
said, it is idle for us at least
others can indulge in the innocent
amusement if they enjoy ito
prognosticate as to the future
price. If we were forced to offer
advice in the premises, we would
certainly say, sell as fast as it can
be got to market.
In our quotations of cotton we
have thus far been giving actual
sales as we witnessed them. In
justice to those merchants selling
on commission, we would remark
that sales are frequently made
above thelegitimate market, when
for instance goods are taken in
whole or part payment.
Quotations yesterday evening
were: Good ordinary 234 and
low middling 24!c.

DECLIsE OF AFRICAN COLOMBIA


The abolition Of slavery in the United
States appears, says the Baltimore Sun,
to have had the effect oflessening even
such disposition as there was formerly
among the colored portion Of the conn
mnnity to emigrate to Liberia. Previ-
Gus to the war and the proclamation of
freedom, the colonization society found
difficulty often in providing adequate
conveyance for emigrants, and, for q
time after peace was declared, the great
or part of those applying for passage
were from the far~off slave>hOIding
Southern States. But in the last two
years even this demand has fallen of,
and for the expedition to be dispatched
this spring there are less then 100 appli-
cants for passage. The fall expedition
was dispensed with entirely for the
want ofpassengers, aud the splendid ship
Go'cpnda, belonging to the colonization
sOriety, and purchased from the Stevens
beguest, was chartered for voyage to
Europe, from which she but recently
returned. She is now ia port and will
most probably be again sent on mer.
camille voyage, the small number desir-
Gus Of emigTating to Liberia not justifyN
ing the employment of so large and
valuable ship. 1t is pr, blble, how
ever, that small vessel may be char
tered to convey the limited number Of
applicants to Africa. On the whole, the
colonization project just now appears TO
be on the wane.

Of the situation so far as the popular

neither wise nor polite for the Lords TO
put themselves in diroct opposition TO the
popular current. If they do, it will
