Since our last report, business has
been ut almost a dead standstill. The
miserable weather has retarded com
mefciaf transactions, and put COM
plete stop to all farming operations.
Planters look blue over the situation,
aud unless we eau have more favorable
weather for the next month il will be
almost impossible to save the Cotton
yet to be picked. Much Of the cotton
coming to this market is very tyashy
and dirty the markets of tho world
will soon become stocked with low
grades, and values suffer further de-
cline. We warn our merchants now to

aiming their cotton.

The foundation Of the Washington
monument is at last declared 10 l1e saf,,
and the great work will now go on to
completion. Last year the board, con-
sisting of Generals Gilmore and Duane,
concluded that the present foundation
of the monument was insufficient to
bear the weight Of the structnfe when
completed. That opinion was bssed
upon certain measurements made by
Lieut.. Daniel kingman, of the engi-
neer corps, who found that the sinking
Of the shaft was SO serious as to endan-
ger its safety, Il, greater weight were
added. II now appears that through
40 fauttsof his, the measurement was
made from hewrdng bench mark, and
that there has been really no such set
tifng rs was believed. The board has
now agreed to report that the mOnu-
ment may safely be completed il q GER
tain addition Is made TO secure the
foundation. The report that strong
wall should be built around the foun-
tiatf0n fr0sn the surface to twelve feet
below the present wallis, and ut least
six feet distant at the corner of the
stru cture, and curved or bowed so that
the centre Of the wall ON each side shall
he at least twelve or fifteen feet from
the monument. The space between
the wall and monument they propose
to fill in with u strong concrete of rub
BILE and cement, and believe that this
will effectually hold the earth directly
underneath the shaftAso that it will u
firm and not slide Or sink. Il

MONROE, La, NOV. y, 1871.
Editor Ouaclaita Telegraph: ......
A Trenton correspondent of your pa
per expresses much dissatisfaction that
I refuse to ship cotton ssto order," and
to sign through bills of lading from
Monroe to Eastern cities.
The custom of shipping tto order"
is common to carriers who are able to
transfer freights to warehousemen at
destination. Transportation lines ter
1ninating at st. Louis. New Orleans or
Vieksburg, doubtless comply with such
demands, as the means of prompt col
lection of freight bill, and equally
prompt relief from the care of the
property are readily obtained.
At Delta no such advantages are Of
fered. The railroad cotton yard at that
point is intended for the accommoda-
ton of cotton in transitu-not for the
storage of freights held at the pleasure
of the shipper, but at the risk OF the
keeper, who would receive no compen-
sation for the service. T.. -,.., f..
Packet lines connecting with the road
at Delta afford quick dispatch for all
consignments to New Orleans or st.
Louis. Through bills of lading to
either point are never declined but to
Eastern cities, or to Liverpool, we have
no. satisfactory through-rate arrange
ments. 5faz =. ,s..,..s ,.. s.
The rates are fluctuating. The line
signing the bill of lading is held for
the rate named, and without perfectly
satisfactory guarantee against reclana-
tions likely to arise from unstable rates,
business of this character does not pre-
sent an aI1uring appearance.
1t has been and is my earnest desire
to afford shippers all possible facilities.
but in my endeavor to prudently ad'
minister the affairs of the road, will
firmly, If not " peremptoriIy," decline
to accede to Injurious demands.
1 fail to see how ttsubsidies' granted
by the State Impose on me the obliga
ton to subordinate the interest of the
road to the will of shippers.
Respectfully, J. w. GREEN,
Receiver and Superintendent

they struck. They gained nothing in

contr"Iists arc crying out for an in>
crease of the army to 100000 mon, and
the placing of tho militia of the
States under the control of tho eon-
oral Government. Tho wal of tho
strikers is q fine protcxt for this do
mand and if it is onco conceded, thon
tho man in tho White House at
Washington will only have to DECLARE
hImsolf emperor, and sustain his au-
thor'ty by tho power of his vast mili>
tary force. 1t is evident that the
co"tralists will, undor speoious pros
toxts, mako Il strong move on Con-
gross at its noxt session for an increase
IN tho regular army, and the enact
ment of such laws as will enahlo them
at the proper time, to wipo out State
lines, with all tho power Of governs
mont contred at Washington. This is
their aim. We think they will not
succeed now, but II few moro strikes
like the recent ono will enable them
to accomplish what they now ovidont-
ly design.
