The Cotton moYsment.

The New York Financial Chronicle of
the 2Sth ult. has been received, which con-
tains the receipts, exports, ETC., of cotton
for the week ending that evening. From
the figures thus obtained it appears that
the total receipts for the seven days have
reached 10. $50 bales against 10, Gel bales
last week, 1856 bales the previous week,
and Is. 1876 bales three weeks since,
making the total receipts since the
LIST If September, 1870, 1857 47 bales
against 2, $40, O96 bales for the same period
OF 1S69-7O, showing an increase since Sept.
l, this year of LIS, Isl bales. The ex-
ports for the week ending same date reach
total of 1914 bales, all being shipped to
Great Britain. The stocks, as made up to
date are 156, OO2 bales. Compared with
the corresponding week of last season,
there is decrease in the exports this week
of 1929 bales, while the stocks are 40, 837
bales more than they were at this time q
year ago. The Chronicle Gays in its re-
view:
The market the past week has been very
quiet, and prices for all but the poorer
grades have given away about ac, middling
uplands closing tonight at 201c against
PIC last Friday. This unfavorable turn
has been due mainly to the less favorable
Liverpool accounts, and increased by the
weight Of our stock, which is so large that
there is a growing disposition, very natu-
raj toward the close of the crop year, to
offer with more freedom. Crop accounts
appear on the whole to be favorable, and
il they continue SO another month or six
weeks it is feared that the new crop will
come in so freely as to force prices below
the present level. Besides, from the re-
ceipfs, it would appear that the old crop is
in considerable supply yet. In view of
these facts there has not been for many
days the same confidence among holders
observable during previous weeks, and yet
there has been an unwillingnees until to-
day to make any considerable concession
to realize. What we have said applies
especially to the better grades, which ara
in large supply, and as our spinners are
pretty well stocked up, the demand has
been limited. For forward delivery there
has been fair business doing, and prices
for the autumn and winter months have
been pretty well sustained until to day,
but at the close prices for all the months
were off from about l q &c.

Nuisance that should be aba,ed

We understand tina it has been custo-
mary Of late to deposit dead oarcssses in
the neighborhood Of the old fair ground
site. just beyond the southern city limits,
and that offensive odols are peculiar to
that vicinity, so much so as to give Just
cause for complaint. Daring late rains,
great portion of the reflse matter at that
point was washed into Browns Creek, and
from thence it found its way to the river
just above the Reservoir, and no doubt
much of the water pumped into the basin
was more OF less mixed with this impure
matter. Such nuisance, to say the least
Of it, should not be allowed.

Under the somewhat erroneous impres-
sion that the purchase and sale of drv
goods YVES the safest, easiest. and most
certain way to fortune, two negroes namt d
Vert and Wesley Hill yesterday proceeded
70 the store of Mr.. j. Flataur, on West
Shurcn street, and informed him Of their
oeslre to purchase about $500 worth Of
oiy goods, In style ard variety about suit-
aDie f9r starting retail store in the coun-
Try They stated that they had on deposit
win Mr.. George Shields, on Cedar street,
500, with which they proposed to settle
for the purchases made; and in order to
give this statement a stronger semblance
of truth, they exhibited TO Mr. Fiatsur q
written instrument TO that effect, which
WIS signed by Wesley Hill. Being at first
pretty well satisfied as to the truth and
chant OF once proceeded TO fill the bill of
goods they desired Such articles
as he did not have, he lu--
chased at other stores, leaving his clerk
with the new customers packing up the
stock already bought. While out M king
these purchases, the merchant, in order to
be certain of his bargain, inquired of Mr..
Shields about the $500, and was horrified
when informed by that gentleman that be
did not even know either Hill or Vert.
Here was fix. Mr.. Flstaur had been bus.
lily at work filling the bill and making out
de ur bases in Ter to do so. At his
store, boxes and trunks filed with goods
were almost ready for delivery to men who
didbt have 25 cents with which to pay for
them. Rejecting about this melancholy
phase of the case. the merchant concluded
to have the negroes arrested FIR the fraud
they were trying to practice upon him, and
on his return from his conference with Mr..
Shields, notified Messrs. Watson and RYAN
Of the condition of things at his store. The
detective officers proceeded to the place
designated and arrested the men who were
there seeking to obtain goods under false
pretenses. They were brought before
Justice Cassetty, but the merchant being
at the time too much Frustrated to conduct
the prosecution, they were sent 10 Jail to
await trial at 3 o'clock this afternoon.
