tration OF church publications and the location OF
the church paper at Nashville. Tenn, and urg-
ing either the establishment Of national church
paperg or the removal Of the present church
organ Of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church
from Nashville to st. Louis.
A memorial on the sarle subject, praying for
the removal OF the publishing house from Nash
vile to Memphis, was presented by the Yazeo
Presbytery. Both memorials were docketed
until after the report Of the Board of Publication
is received. The subject Of temperance is likely
to be discussed at considerable length by the
assembly. The following resolutions were offered
and referred t. the Committee on Temperance
1. That the month Of July next be employed in
humiliation and PRAYER to God to remove the
evils OF intemperance from US.
2. Tat the first Thursday in July be set apart
as . day Of fasting, humiliation ana prayer that
God in His infinite wisdom and mercy, and in
His own time and way, may remove this deadly
evil from us.
8. That we do not cease with the month, but
continue, like Jacob, to wrestN with God until
the long night of drunkenness, with its incalcu-
liable evils, shall have passed away.
4. That in fear OF God We invite all our men,
bers and all Christians to unite with in prayer
and fasting to this end.
s. That the faculty Of Trinity University be
reque ted to write a circular letter to all
churches on the subject Of temperance.
6. That this Assembly make the following
amendment on our Book Of Discipline and refer
the same to the Presbyters for ratification,
namely: Every candidate for church member
ship shall, during his examination, be required
to answer the following question in the afirma-
tive: "Do you promise, by Gods assistance,
never to drink intoxicating liquors as beverage?"
The report of the Board OF Publication was re-
ceived and with the memorialsfrom Vandalia and
Zazoo Presbyteries referred to the Committee on
Publication. The Assembly instructed the
Board Of Publication to proces at once with the
publication Of the book ofhymns and tunes for the
use Of the church, to be called Bible Songs.
Bowling Green, KY, was selected for the meet |
ing Of the next General Assembly.

NEW ORLEANS VS.. NEW YORK AS A
COTTON PORT,
NEW ORLEANS, May 81, 1875.

NEW ORLEANS, May 81, 1875.
Editor Of the New Orleans Bulletin:
have been under the impression for some
time that "Dear Col. Roundabout" of the
Times, has been endeavoring to put three
bushels Of fertilizers into two bushel bag,
and his efforts to that end are worthy not only
of consideration, but of commisseration, mas
much as he has thus far signally failed. While
he confines himself to subjects with which
he is familiar, such as fair maidens who have
been made the victims of misplaced conf
dence, family auarrels, Creole beauty, fast
young men, mathematical conundrums, etc.,
he is in his proper sphere, and should be al
lowed to waste the printers ink and space of
the Times, nobody being injured thereby but
the proprietors; but when he touches upon
matters Of serious importance of which he is
profoundly ignorant, it is time to give him q
passing notice
In his article this morning headed "Cotton
Charges, he is rather out of his depth, and
proves conclusively that his means Of obtain
ing correct information are exceedingly
limited.
He pretends to give the charges on five
bales of cotton, including freight, which he
sets down at $l3 Is; drayage, storage, weigh
ing, etc., SO rs, and storage at 50 rs. This
last item is incorrect, as it is included in the
item of So rs for drayage, storage, weighing,
etc.-making the grand total, including
brokerage and commission, $33 IS, at which
rate he says that one-tenth of the gross value
of all cotton received at this port is con-
sumed in freight and charges, and intimates
that such charges will drive cotton from US
and attract the attention of the planters to
other markets where the charges are much
cheaper, or to use his own language, "May
We not, unwittingly, perhaps, kill the goose
which for many years has laid the golden
egg?"
The rate of freight by steamboats, and rail-
roads is matter over which the receivers
Of cotton at New Orleans have no control
The rate by steamers SO far as is applicable to
the Mississippi River is far below the rate
from intermediate stations on the Jackson
Railroad. The item of insurance, admit, |
appears high. particularly from the tributary
streams, but doubt if any insurance COM
pany doing general river business has made
any money on that particular branch, and it |
is conceded that the premium charged on all
risks on produce on the main river is as low |
as that charged by any of the companies in
The West
will now give the actual charges on five
bales of cotton from Memphis, including |
freight, the cotton to be sold in one month |
after landing:
Five bales Of cotton, average weight $50
pounds, or 225O pounds, at Is cents. 1887 80

THE GAYETY.-Now that the heated term may
be said to fairly have opened it is we'll to know Of
those places OF resort where not only is enter
tainment offered but at the same time one can
enjoy The refreshing GOODNESS of our nights. The
Gayety, on Baronne street, near Common, offers
these, and Manager Flynne, supported on his
left flank by the jovial and genial Martin whom
every body knows and every body likes. He adds
a bouquet to the wine by his polite attent on,
and from his hand every thing smacks of the old
vintages. The attractions tor the summer will
be varied and attractive, and there is no place
where an evening can be spent more delightfully."-
than under the hos pitali les of Flynne. Light
and pleasing comedi- ttas, artistically rendered
songs and fairy dances are so interspersed in the
programme, that the visitor can net fail to be
more than pleased. An hour before the Gayety
curtain is new lease of life.
ST. PATRrcKs HALL.-The grand concert given
last night at st. Patricks Hall by several mem.
bers OF the old opera troupe, although not finan.
cially success, was, in point OF artistic merit
quite grand affair. Mines. Teoni and Leroux
were quite happy in their selections and received
the applause they deserved. Messrs. Chelh,
Gadilhe and Dardigna, gave us some splendid
singing, and Mr.. Gianini, in his violin solo, was
very excellent.
The New Orleans bulletin. [volume] (New Orleans [La.]) 1874-1876, 1875-05-23

Now this is somewhat different from the
item S33 Is, as made up by Roundabout
have not the figures at my command to
show the actual charges exclusive of freight)
at other ports, but will venture the assertion
that the New Orleans charges will compare
favorably with those of any commercial city
in the world.
It appears to me that such writer's as
Roundabout do more to destroy the commerce
and general prosperity of New Orleans, than
our most bitter enemies elsewhere. It would,
perhaps, be better if he would abandon his
circumgyntions and pct hereafter on the
SQUARE.
Since writing the above, have been fur
nished with memorandum of charges on
one bale cotton sold in New York, as follows:
Marine insurance, $40 per bale, per cent. 70
storage and labor. ~
Brokerage. NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. rs
Weighing Observation-Disclosures. 20
pa per cent. OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. 81 SO
Exclusive of freight SO 60
Charges on one bale in New Orleans, exclu-
sive of freight ......................3 40
Difference in favor Of New Orleans. 80
The above calculation is on bale of $50
pounds at Is cents. -.

Trade Circular (English) canddly admits, after
a personal examisation Of these tools, that
the former are much superior by com,

that a laboring man could by using them do
far larger amount of work in a given time than
he could by 'using the old-fashioned ones that
our (the English) manufacturers have so long
persisted in forcing upon the market. inc
same journal intimates that the English manu-.
facturers are ready to admit the superiority OF
the American axes, but say that they are SC
full of orders for their regular patterns that
they have neither time nor inclination TO pro-
duce others. These admissions ought to stim'l'
late our American manufacturers to risk the ex'

the works are now in operation, yet they arc
employing about 300 hands and turning out
45, 600 yards of printed cloth daily. When tho
