REMARKS.
COTTON.—The demand for Upland Cotton
has been brisk since our last report, and nearly all
tho small parcels on hand, have been sold, at
prices ranging from 94 to 114. The iiuinber
• i bales sold during tho week will reach near
3G00. We continue our last week’s quotations,
vfe: I0|to|d| cents. We have heard of no
transactions in Sea Island Cotton.
We take the following statement of the receipt?
of Cotton from the Savannah Shipping if Com
mercial List, at the places mentioned, since the
THE CITY OF A THOUSAND ISLES.
Savannah—beautiful, glorious Savannah—U
situated just at the termination of a thousand Isl
ands—many of whose green bonier* stretch fir
out into tho sea, and line our coast to the North
and South, producing as magnificent n succession
of coast-views, as ever blessed the eye ofa painter.
Our own blessed little city towers her proud
head high above all these—embracing in a single
view, one of the most picturesque scenes any
where to be fonud. Coastwise, the eye. on a
clear day. sweeps in its range Tyboo Light, and
•Jl the emerald gems which are inter«per*ed from
the coast to our borders. The horizon is closed
in on that sido by a hazy veil of ocean drapery,
none the less magnificent for its in Usi.netness iu
the far prospective, while the nearer views are
enlivened by white sails and swelling canvass of
the lazy-looking strangers as they wind about the
greeu borders of the sea-girt islands, iu pursuit 01
our harbor. So high do we tower above the
surronn tmg country, that our Merchants can
stand in the streets, glass in hml, and examine
the signals of vessels yet in the hands of the Pilot.
Indeed, many of them have little eyries, or balco
nies, runuiug out from the rear of their counting
looms—into which they can step in a moment,
and at once comm m l a view of every ship ill
port—the wharves and biniiiess in the lo wer
town, nnJ all the canvas* from the dock to the
ocean. Tisanugtiifident panorama-sweeping
over I and an I sea in as rich a circle of ho.mty.au. I
presenting as great a variety of object* a? ever
were crowded into a picture. To the North,
Carolina’s green field? and white cottages spread
out fir as the eye cm ro *e’i—bordered In tho .hack
ground hv lo^tv groves ofo »'\. pine and cypress;
while in the We4—^tho river comes stealing into
view, every here and there stud led wiih green
islands and alive with gonloUi of every hue and
shade, from the glittering and awning coven d
pride of the rirh planter, to the bhek stnokc-dycd
canoe of the m«rry singing negro. To the South,
the White Bluff nn 1 Ogeechcc iloidistretch their
white anus far into the demo green forest—burst
ing out an 1 into view, like the river on the o her
sido,pres<.*nling occasional glimpses of.mow white
cotton fields—an I gay cavalcades of our own mer
ry population. Wc wish Cols would come here
for a landscape iu real nature, he would no long
er be compelled to pencil out sleepy and dreamy
pictures of the imagination from DonJimn, to
tickle the voluptuous fancies of his rich patrons.
Or Wem—is he too permanently perched upon
old Fort Putnun (at West Point) to pay in a vis
it. IIu is the painter of the nation, and should

A rumor wa* current in this city yesterday,
that it is the intention of the Banks to resume cash
payments on or before the first of January next.
Even the minor i* plowing, and the consumma
tion “devoutly to ho wished.” Hut though wo
should account this an unfounded report, we
cannot hut flatter ourselves that them is good
reason to believe that those institutions are aiming
steadily nt such a result, and determined to hasten

munity seem disposed to bear patiently the mis
fortune into which wo have fallen, and to abstain
from complaint mid reproaches. But they will
refuse to recognize tho state of things which now
exist*, ns a n itarul state, or to rest iu it as one
which is to be perm mnnt. The more earnest

delegates (seven iVntn Iowa and seven from Mis

some amicable mode of action, in regard In the
boundary question, until the meeting of Con

The Missouri delegation wished Missouri lobe

Spring Rice.—When the French invasion of Ire
land took place in 1704, there happened to live
in the town of Dingle, au honest couple, who
had come into possesrion I>y some means or other
of wealth amounting to JGofl. These funds they
had carefully by them in gold, and being firmly
convinced that the real object of the French in

with the eye of a punter without any art—to
mount one of our cup do’* in oimoftho*e Lilian

picture: and then our forests have 1:0 holidiy
dress, they are ever clad in gro.cn—the live long

The visit of Ad. Batidiu to Texas has attract
ed tho attention and excited the ire of the Mexi
cans. Oue of the papers ofthe capital contain*
the folloAving, among other reflections, on the
subject of^Texas: “It is iioav time for the Mexi

those ol’Tampito, there is nothing like rebellion

field to resist the authority of Present Uiislaineiile.

Ricoh.—The demand is limited to vory small par

market ims a large stock of Sides, and a good suppiy
of outer descriptions.
Pi our.—Wo nave to report an extremely dull mar

some holders U4k inure, we stid quote 8o 50 for su

our former table, which represents/toe current rates
as nearly as thoy can be suited.
Freights.—There lias been n slight decline in flic

3-10 of u cent, though vessels previously mailing for
that port, liuviug nearly completed their cargoes, utul
