OFFIOE NEW ORLEANS BULLETIN,
Tuesday Morning, Oct. Ii. 1874.

We confess that the present weather ha,
stumpad rs. it is about as tickle as woman
and might apty be termed coquetlsh. 1t i.
more like April than October, and the prospects
of early rain to settle tho dust along the riveI
| front is slim indeed. our pet bunnon to the con
| trary notwithstanding.
Tho landing yesterday wore quite busy ap.
pearance, cansed by the numerous arrivals since
| Saturday night. Cotton Is coming in freely. and
the receipts of Western produce are in excess %;
! those for several weeks past. The business out-
LOOK IL fiattering, and. within the next fortnight
| we expect to see the miserable substitutes tina.
are called by courtesy wharves crowded with
steamboats,.
