REMARKS.
COTTON.—The demand for Upland the past
week has been steady, but prices have receded a
little since ottr last report. The sales of the week
will reach aboht 1100 bnles, at prices ranging from
9 to 12|—principally at 11 £ to 12. On Saturday,
we received accounts hy the Great Western, from
England to the 19tlt nit—and we understand that
they have created but little or no sensation in our
market. We make our quotations at from 10 \ to
12£. In Sea Island, there was a small quantity
sold, which brought from 23 to 30 cents.

THE HARVEST.
The fine weather at the cud of flip last and com-
menco.neutofthu present week, lias enabled the
farmers to draw to a conclusion one of the most
critical und anxious luirvosts in the history of the
couutry. In tho mouths of July, August and
Sept, the three principal harvest months, a very
unasitnl quantity of rain fell, and the prospect of
a mined harvest frequently presented itself; but
in the south, where the danger seemed imminent
there came a fortnight of liue harvest weather at
the end of July und the beginning of August, and
a great quantity of grain m tho com growing
counties, peculiarly so called, was scoured in good
condition, though some of it not without injury.
From the middle of August to the middle of Sep
tember, the, woxtlier was again very unfavourable
for harvest operations, but within that period a
great propoition of the corn in the nqrth ofF.ng*
-Since nur last the weather has,
n exceeding favourable to her*
immense quantity of com of all

from the different corn district* of this neighbour
hood concur in stating the result of the harvest
as above nn average ns to quantity, and fully an
average as to tmalitv. Apprehension* on the sub
ject apner to lie fi.*t dviin nwuy, as the market

Onr Ponlton rorrespondent say*, we. in our
niiffhhonrhood. are about concluding the harvest;
the nu*pic:on* chinvo in tlie weather ha* cau*ed
the farmers to make great proxre** in hou*ing

TIIE CORN TRADE AND THE CROPS.
—Messrs Sturge of Birmingham, in their monthly
circular issued on the Oct. Ifllli, says—“The
account* from many parts of tlie kingdom concur
in Ktiling a serious deficiency in the crops, es
pecially in the northern districts of En;lan l
and in Ireland. In u few counties it ap
pears likely to prove near an average, and
on the whole the yield will probably he bet-
trr than, from the condition of the weather, could
have been expected, but the hulk of straw is less
than was supposed before harvest. We have had
little variation in the price of wheat during'the
past mouth, but there ha* been a general imli.*-
po-ition ou the part of miller* to purchase beyond
their immediate wants, partly owing to the’con
tinued pressure on the money market, qnd part
ly to the low price of flour, comp trod with wheat,
the la*t few weeks. T »tj I* now no probability
of the duty coming to 2*. 8d. ut present, and we
bhink it may go to 16s. fed. by tlie end of the pre
sent month.”
Correspondence of the Courier and Enquirer.
Pin *, lflth,.Oct, 1839.
Since my last, by the Liverpool, the return* of
the nature agd amount of the lute harvest have
reached flic proper oificer* in P ri*. They nltei
in no respect,(in no material respect at all event*.)
the opinion 1 have already coinmiiuic ited to you.
The quality of the grain is ii.-l mi good u» it jnoin-
Led. The quantity i# also less than was hoped
for. On the whole the crop may he considered
a* sutlicieiit for the consumption of the country,
but nothing beyond that. Tlie price ofhread h s
in Paris risen to 18 sous for the four pound loaf.
A diminution of this, (for Pari*) very high charge
is predicted and may take place—hut it will not
be to any important extent, and will have been
effected by the management of the government,
rather than by the natural operation of the sup.
ply.
“Let me have no disturbances in Paris,” said
Napoleon fo hi* minister of police. The present
ruler of France i*. on the contrary, accused o:
having directed that disturbances should ho pro
voked. in order to he aide under cover of them
to carry strong, violent, and unconstitutional
measures. He is. however, too clever mid too
clear-sighted u man to incur willingly disturban
ces, the result of a scarcity ofhread, and is there
fore laboring to remove the alarm which had be
gun to extend itself, and to ensure such n supply
to the metropolitan market* ns may keep down
the prices of provision*. But this is not all. To
a man who has no money and no means of pro
curing any’it is immaterial whether bread be one
-ous or five sous the pound ; (it is ut present, as I
have said, four und a half sous to the pound.)
The Chamber* have placed at tho disposal of
government very large sum* to he applied to pub
lic works. These (and more by anticipation) are
ordered to be expended. It is to he hoped that
all these precautions and the uiulim'mished^oUri-
tude of government will obviate the dangers with
which we are threatened ; but 1 can assure you
that the ministry itself is not divested of its very
serious apprehensions for the winter about to set
in. Already are the walls of Puris covered with
appeals to the passions of the multitude, remind
ing them of tlie extremely high price of bread, of
the paucity of employment, unu of tho misery in
which they are plunged. As yet those appeals
have produced little actual mischief iu the metro
polis, but they hnv o not been wholly f, uiiless. In
tfio Departments, (in-tbat ofl^i Surtlie in particu
lar,) there have been very grave disorders .occa
sioned by the fear ofscarcitv. Iu evory instance
those disturbances resulted from tlie purchase of
grain iu the uuirkets for removal to other poiuls of
Franco or fur exportation to foreign countries.—
In many cases very large bodies of troops-we re
required to put an end to the disorders. Force
prevailed, and no.w persuasion is resorted tp.

BOUNDARY TROUBLES.
Considerable difficulty appears to have nr'inen
in relation to the disputed boundary line between
Missouri and (own. It appear* from thejlitrliug-
ton, Missouri, Gazette, that the Sheriff of Clark
county, in tlmt State, had attempted to collect
die taxes on the lands in dispute, and having been
unsuccessful, he threatened to return with a force
sufficient to compel payment. The settlors, in
consequence of these threats, called a public
meeting, and determined to malto an armed re
sistance.
The Paris, Missouri, Sentinel, ofthe t 19(h Oc
toiler, states that a messenger had passed through
that place, bringing information to the Governor
of Missouri tlmt au armed force from Iowa, had
Ho'zcd upon and forcibly attempted to imprison
the Sheriff of Clark county, while engaged in tho
legal discharge of his official duties. The mes
senger was also charged with despatches from
Gen. Wallock, of die 14th Divisiop of Missouri
militia, who had been called upon for protection
by the citizens, and only waited the orders of Uio
Governor. As tlie papers toko strong ground
und declare that Missouri wiil and must stand by
her rigbt>/’ it is feared that tho matter in dispute
will not be settled without much' difficulty.
