Messrs Small L Co. call attention to the steady
and gradual increase from year 10 year OF llnpoTta-
lions at all Southern pnrts-tis wear greater IMAM
anv previous Savannah exceptedl since the war;
decreased. And when We consider mat the eh.lre
South is daily becoming more prosperous from her
agricultural resources, afordlnS al classes the
means OF indulging in what has been almost con
sidered luxury heretofore, there Is every reason
TO predict that the consumption Will YET continue
to increase i'll this section; for IL ADDITION 10 the
white population that has hitherto been considered
the chief of coffee in the South. we nave
to add say about $500 900 freedmen, who have also
become regular and large consumers. In this con
nection wish to give other reasons tor oeheVlnS
the consumption will materially increase not only
in the Southern States, but throughout the entire
Union The prospect of lower prices ruling t:is
year-etfected by the low rate OF gold. and tHe
proposed reduction by Congress OF the du.y from l
5 to Sc. per pound-the fattering prospect OF the
cotton and sugar crops in this section, anu the
grain crops of the West favor such result, OF
which increase New Orleans should receive Ner
proportion. There are several new lines of trans
portarion projected from this point to the interior
the most important OF which Will De pusIeC lot

ness.

Naval StOres-The receipts of both spirits OF
turpentine and rosin show falling of as com
pared with last year. This is owing to the SNORT
supply Of hands, the inducements held OFT by the
Chattanooga Railroad Company having drawn
away considerable number which would other
wise have been engaged in tie manufacture OF
rosin and spirits OF turpentine. The bulk OF the
transactions has been for shipment to the west
and to Europe but there has been fair increase
IN the local consumption OF rosln, prlncipally ~
the soap factories in New Orleans. The receipts
have consisted mostly Of Alabama, Mississippi ana
Florida the production of Louisiana having
been comparatively small Several manu-
