Weekly Cotton Report.

New YORK, August 6.-The cotton move
ment shows slight falling off in receipts
and a considerable increase in exports. The
receipts at all ports are Il, 472 bales, against
TO- 900 last week, 1861 the previous week
and 1886 three weeks since. The total re-
ceipts since September are 1877 800 bales,
against 2,S88, go for the corresponding
period of last year, showing an increase OF
1907 500 bales in favor Of the present sea
son. The exports from all ports for the
week are 1888 bales, against $3.50 for the
same week last year.
The total exports for the expired portion
of the cotton year are 1901, 1888 bales,
against g ,S9l bales for the same time
last year. The stock at all ports is 1884,
bales, against l08 27S for the same time last
year. The stocks at interior towns are
Il, $50 bales, against y, 40 last year. The
stock at Liverpool is $4,000 bales, against
56S, 900 last year. The American cotton
afoat for Great Britain is $4,000 bales,
against 50, 900 last year. The Indian cotton
aioat for Europe is 650,6l6 bales, against
527 SOL last year. The weather at the
South during the week was hot and dry in
many sections, while in OTHER parts the
heat was relieved by showers. Some ad-
vices speak of caterpillars, and state fur
Their that the condition of the growing plant
is less favorable. No great damage to the
crop is reported.
Cotton has been heavy and prices have
declined, both for spot and future cottons.
Sales for the week reached $1,000 bales, of
which $4,000 bales were for future delivery,
and $4,000 bales on the spot and TO arrive.
OF the spot cotton, exporters took about
5000 bales, spinners $3.50 bales, and specu-
lators so bales.

The jackson Railroad.

A pleasant trip over the Jackson railroad
Saturday evening as far as Summit Mis-
sissippi, shows that the road has greatly
improved under the management of Colonel
McComb and the efficient and experienced
general superintendent, Mr.. Z. @. Sewall
Over the recently oyerfowed portion OF
the track, between Kenner and Manchac,
the train went slow, but beyond Manchac
the average rate of speed was about
twenty five miles an hour.
On the return trip, the train being behind
time made the first thirty miles in one hour
and the next ten miles in fifteen minutes.
The track grows better from day to day,
under the skilltul repairs of the section
hands, and there is every reason to hope
that in year or two the Jackson railroad
will be equal in every respect to the best
railroad in the country. The local travel,
since the accommodation train has been re-
sumed, is increasing wonderfully. The
through travel was never better, as is at
tested by the fact that on Saturday over
one hundred and thirty through tickets
were sold for New York and points North.

North Louisiana.
We copy the following editorial from til,
Homer Had:

We copy the following editorial from the
Homer Had:
This portion of Louisiana has never
welded its proper influence in the politics
and government of our State. 1t has been
mainly ''left out in the cold' in the division
Of ''spoils'-the only cohesive quality which
holds parties together-and has been ex-
pected and required TO vote and pay tribute
without any adequate return. But the day
is coming when, we trust and believe, this
will no longer be the case, not as much so,
at least, as in the past.
There are, in what is termed North Louisi-
ana, a number of parishes-say, Claiborne,
Webster, Bossier, CaddO De Soto, Bienville,
jackson, VIM, Caldwell, Catahoula, Qua
chita, Franklin, Richland, Morehouse, and
Union-which are homogeneous in interest,
or mainly so, and which should vote as
unit in every general State eleetion-we
mean for Governor and State officers-and
we hope and trust TO see them do so at the
next general election.
The lower portion of the State, and what
are termed the river parishes, have con-
trolled the entire political destinies of
Louisiana from time immemorial, and hence
have resulted all the extravaganza and gem
eral bad legislation which have so sorely
cursed the land, and under which we are
now groaning. And this must cease. North
and opposed to all wild schemes of legisla-
ton and reckless extravagance-whether
corporate or incorporate-must hereafter
combine and vote together, not only for
selfprotectiOn; but for the common good
And this portion of the State must be repre-
sented on the next general ticket, not only
for the first or second office On the guberna-
tOrial card, but also for one of the other
State offices-Auditor, Treasurer, Attorney
General or Secretary of State. We will not
submit to a ticket filed by hungry aspirants
in New Orleans and surroundings. Such isnot
only unjustin special sense, but is democrat
ling and .corrupting in general sense.
We repeat, the parishes we have named
will not submit to it.
North Louisiana is, in fact and in truth,
the superior portion. of the State-more sol
vent commercially and far ahead of some
other localities in virtue and intelligence"
the essential qualities of free government.

AGITATING THE SUBJECT.-A statement
made in New York paper that Forester,
the alleged murderer of Mr.. Nathan, was in
New Orleans on the sixteenth of July, must
have been based on show of foundation.
On the night of the fifteenth ultimo our re-
porter was in beer saloon in the Second
District, when the statement was made to
him that Forester was not only in this city
at that time, but at that moment in the bar
room, having INDUCED in a smile few
minutes previous. The reporter did not
fully credit the assertion then, but circum-
stances have since transpired which confirm
him in the belief that the story was literally
true. A paragraph in another portion of to-
days paper also makes the assertion that
the man was here at the time mentioned. At
police headquarters these averments are
secuted, as it is thought the tale was made
by man well known in this community,
for an especial purpose. The reporter is
positively informed that Forrester's wife
was here last month, but left about the
middle of July, starting for New Mexico,
where she and her husband are at present;
at least it is so reported.

ANOTHER BLooDY DEED.-At six orseven
o'clock Sunday evening, an affray took
place on Clara, between Erato and Clio
steets, the participants being Tim Devane,
John Lane and Daniel Begley. Lane was
badly handled, his skull being crushed in
by Ratchet in the hand of Devane. DIR.
Cowan attended the wounded man, and
states that the fracture will propably end
seriously; at least he has little hope that
his patient will recover. Devane was ar
rested, and yesterday remanded to prison
to await the result of Lanes condition,
Officer. Patterson charging accused with
having dangerously wounded Lane. The
prisoner denies having used the Ratchet,
asserting that when he first saw Begley and
Lane they were engaged in a rolling fight.

Bound to Go In.

We learn that an enthusiastic delegate
from one of the country parishes called on
Mr.. Packard last Saturday with his creden-
tials, and asked for his ticket of admission
to the convention. He was told that his
credentials would be fled, but it was uncer-
tain what action would be taken by the COM
mittee. He might be accepted as member,
in which case he would be given a ticket on
Wednesday morning. This GOODNESS rather
aroused the delegate, who, in language more
forcible than elegant, assured Mr.. Packard
that "Milk ticket or no milk ticket, my peo-
pie have sent me here to represent them,
and, by the Eternal, am going into that
convention hall, and all the deputy mar
shals you have can't keep me QUIT"

A Few BRoGANs.-A column of brogans
several feet high graced local habitation
near Poydras Market. and when John John
son and Thomas Walker walked past they
took pity on the shoes, which looked so
lonesome, and took them away carefully.
Officer Zenas Jones saw the fellows with
the leather, which looked queer to him, and
notwithstanding they are orphans, placed
them in prison. Yesterday Recorder Hough-
ton gave them liberty to see jury. When
asked why they stole the shoes, one replied
that led they not taken them some one
else would; but as the argument is short at
both ends, it failed to assist their case.
