WEDNESDAY, Oct 16-6P.M
Business was pretty lively as general rule to-
day, and there were comparatively few important
exceptions to the rule. The comparative quietude
and ease in the money market have tendency to
stimulate renewed activity In commercial AFFAIRS,
and as consequence we note o steady growth OF
trade in many commodities, and an increased dis
position to make speculative ventures. This feel
ing is confined to comparatively few commodities,
however, the great bulk, OF this seasons business
thus far having been the natural result OF legti-
mate demand, and the commodities dis
posed Of have, az o general thing, either
been exported or gone into general distribution.
Business was fair to-day in nearly oil the principal
articles on Change Cotton was easier. Flour was
quiet. Wheat was lower under pressure to
sell-particularly the common Sorts Corn was
also lower, but closed firm under break In the
rates OF freight. Oats were active ana higher
There was also more active movement in pork,
which was decidedly higher. Liverpool grain
freghts were decidedly lower, several Of the
steamers being in the market Sugar was the at
ractive feature in the grocery market and full prices
were realized Petroleum remained duh and nominally
steady. Naval stores frmer u,Ider better de-

fg Under the caption of Thoughts for
the Voters inthe Third Congressional District
we make the following extract from comm,i-
nication in the Louisiana Sngar Bowl of the
18th inst, from the pen of Edward Hickey
Esq. OF st. Mary Parish, a delegate to the
Democratic State convention held in New Or
leans in the early part of last summer:
But will the voters OF the Third District give
the stamped the approval to man OF Ebert

Crocodile Navigation Company, twenty years
at per cent. 40 coupons 10 each. payable semi
annually, July and January. See acts 1870
PIP 2l. That this scheme is an unmifigated
swindle none will deny. Bnt what measure
of censure do the State authorities deserve
for having failed to give the people the benefit
ofproteetion against the imposition thus prac-
tised, and for which they have no security
whatever for returning any equivalent. Had
they not better enquire what has been done
with this money before they reward Mr.. Can't
for an act that should send him any where but
to Congresss Had they not better enquire
into the conduct of this man while in New Or
leans2 lit is not three months since that Mr..
CAN'T, in company with several negroes. went
into respectable har-room in New Orleans,
that of Mr.. A. B. Custar, at the corner of st.
Charles and Gravief Streets a place where
the first men of the city are in the habit of
meeting and demanded that he and those
negroes be furnished refreshments and when
the barkeeper objected to waiting upon ne
groes, this aspirant for Congressional llonors,
this solicitor for the votes of white men, pro-
tested against what he called denial of rights
of his dnskv companions. Has it come to this
that an advocate of the social equality of ne
groes with white men, is to be honored by the
voters of the peoplejof his District and to
make place for him, Mouton is to retire.
