Army Movkmbnts.—The Picavnne of the
1 lih inst. says:—Ten companies of the 3d U. S.
Infantry, 500 men in all, arrived yesterday from
Red River on board the steamboats De Soto
and Cote Joveuse. They are under the com
mand of Col. Hitchcock, and the barracks be
ing already foil of troops, we understand quar
ters have been taken for them at the Lower
Cotton Press. In a short time they will all be
on their way to Texas. Gen. Taylor has noi
yet arrived here, but will probably be down in
the course of a week.
Thk First Ocean STEaMKn.Mr. Rush in
his ‘Memoranda ot a Residence in London,’
mentions under date of Jnlv 3 , IHI9, the arri
val at Liverpool on the -Olh of June, of the
American steam-ship Savannah, Cap|. Rogers.
She was a vessel of3oo tonsbuithcu, and was
.tinfirst that ever crossed the ocean by steam.
Capt. Rogers stated that she worked with great
ease and sateiv on the voyage, and used her
steam full eighteen days. Her passage was
twenty-six days, the weather in general having
been unfavorable. Besides she was detained
five days in the Irish Channel until she could
get fresh coal, her supply having given out
when she entered the channel. The captain
had laid in 1500 bushels. Herengine was equal
to a seventy-two horse power, and acted hori
zontally. Iler "heels were on the sides, made
ot iron, and removeable at pleasure.”
We will here state, says the Savannah Re
publican, what has perhaps been forgoilen by
many ot our readers abroad, that the above
vessel was owned by a company of merchants
in this city. She was fitted up in New-York,
and after a trial voyage South, sailed from Sa
vannah on the 25th of May, 1819. The facts
stated-in the-stove paragraph in regard to her
voyage to Liverpool are correct. From Liver
pool the Savannah sailed for the Baltic—the
King of Sweden, the Emperor of Russia, and
others, were highly pleased with the enterprise.
The King of Sweden proposed to purchase the
; vessel, and offered Capt, Rogers a large sum
lor her, payable in iron. This proposition
Capt. R. did not consider himself authorized to
accept. At St. Petersburg the Savannah was
visited by lhe Emperor Alexander, wboexpress
ed much gratification, both verbally and in the
form of presents loCapt. Rogers. One of these
presents, an iron chair, is still in the possession
of S. D. Dunning, E-q ,of this city. The Sa
vannah after her return was overhauled, her
machinery and engines taken out, and she re
futed as a sailing vessel. She subsequently
made several voyages to New-York and North
ern ports, and was eventually wrecked off Fire
Place, south side
sth November, 1821, being then under com
mand of Capt. Holdedge, who had succeeded
Capt. Rogers. Stic was al the time ot her
wreck owned by Oliver Sturges, Esq.
The original stockholders lost every cent
invested in lhe enterprise, and have only the
honor lor themselves and tbeir city, of having j
been lhe first io demonstrate the practicability
of Ocean Steam Navigation. The lacts are I
, of Jeiing rmm» hul nit ..1, 1l . il.'eT*
are honorable to the enterprising men concerned,
but because the whole affair goes to prove, what
has already been pretty well established, lhat
the projectors ol great enterprises are seMotn
the men who enjoy the rewards. The heirs ol
Fulton, it is true, are likely tardy jus
tice from the American Congress—but the man
himself who toiled, and wasted his strength toi
the benefit ot posterity, died in comparative
poverty. The enterprising men who first con
ceived the possibility ol Ocean Steam Naviga
tion, and wbo successfully executed their de
signs, have been mostly gathered to their fathers
Would noisome substantial memento of their
deeds be appropriate and proper from those who
have not only witnessed but profited by lhe
triumph of their scheme?
The English in South America —Patagonia
Seized.— John Bull has taken possession ot
Patagonia, as appears by the following:
Capt. Deming, of the ship Mexico, arrived
yesterday in 92 days from Valparaiso, reports
that Capt. Rogers, tr?m London, arrived therd
Ist April, and informed h'tn that he hid landed
Capt. Gardner of H. M. Navy, and Mr. Hum
in Cane Gregory Bay, Straits of Magellan, on
lb? 20th February. They have gone to this de
snlated region for the purpose of civilizing the
Patagonia Indians. Capt. Rogers also staled
that he remained in Cape Gregory Bay five
days, and built them a comfortable home for the
winter.
British Steam Navy. —ln a recent debate in
the British House ot Commons, Sir G. Cock
burn made the following statements. The
facts which they set forth of the power and effi
ciency of the steam naval aXhara nt of Eng
land are in striking contrast with the very lim
ited extent ot the same class of vessels in the
Navy of the United States :
“ With respect to the position ot the nuFii
nery in steam vessels, the Admiralty were tak
ing care that in all vessels tor the future the
machinery would be placed as low as possible
in the hull, and h?* would venture io say that in
that respect our steamships w mid be as good a
any France possessed. The exposure ot their
machinery to shots was one to which all steam
vessels had heen hitheito liable, and they were
endeavoring to remedy it as far as they could.
He hoped also in li •ve those ships propelled by
the screw instead of by »he paddle. [Hear,
hear ] They had but recently adopted the Ar
chimedean screw for the propulsion of ships,
and he had no doubt that it would eventually
supersede nil other methods. [Hear, hear.]
Then, it that weie the case, and if these im
provements were continually in progress, it
would be the height ot imprudence to go on
building ships to any great extent. [Hear,
hear ] He believed that our navy was in a
most efficient state, and til to go to war with
any foreign power. There were nut only the
104 steam vessels in ler Majesty’s naw, but
there was also our vast merchant steam navy—
with these, in the evenlot a war, we might de
r fy the world.”
Another member of the House of Commons,
Mr. Somers, said.
“Atthis moment, we are in possession of a
fleet ot upwards ot 101 sail of steam
out of which number there are 24 from 1,000 to
1,800 tons burden. [Cheers.] All those which
are of 1,800 tons are capable of carrying their
stern guns on the main deck.
Case of McNulty*
V/e noticed yesterday the acquittal of this
man upon the charge of embezzling the funds
of the government. The following report of the
case, which we find in the National Intelligencer,
will show how that acquittal was procured.
The Court resumed ihe case ot the United
States vs. McNulty, when Charles D immer
was called on the part of the United Sales.
The witness stated that he was warrant clerk
in the office of the Secretary ot the Treasury,
and had charge ot the requisitions connected
with the civil and diplomatic expenditures oi
the Government. His testimony related to the
number, amount, and dates of the various re
quisitions made on the Treasury on t of
the contingent fund of the House of Represen
tatives during the two fiscal yea is commencing
on rhe Ist July, 1843, and ending June 30th,
1815
Chauncey Bestor, cashier of the Patriotic
Bank, was then examined, and Mr. Fendall
commenced with an invesiigaiion of the state of
McNulty’s account with the bank. Mr. Car
lisle protested against a course of examination
the only effect us which would be the embar
rassment of his case by the introduction oi □
mass of ex raneous testimony. In the indict
inent thf charge was the embezzlement ot 8750
in one of three in des specified. To prove this
I charge i; was not necessary to gc into a matter
I of accounts which would open all the transac-
tiottS of bis client with the Patriotic Bank. He
had already asserted his belief that he shouh
show to the satisfaction of the jury that thi
monstrous charge grew out ol an innocent arid
merely private transaction. His client, while
in the’West, received three checks for his sal
ary for three months, which was 3-250 a month,
amounting to 8750. These checks were on lhe
Patriotic Bank ot Washington. Being de
sirous to receive the money on them, he ap
plied to Mr. Moody, the cashier of the Savings’
Bink at Columbus, Ohio, for that purpose;
He was informed that the bank, preferring mo
ney in New York, would rather give him the
amount for his draft on the Bank ot America.
He accordingly gave his draft on that batik, and
al the same time remitted his three checks to
the Patriotic Bank, with a request that the
amount should be put to his credit in the Bank
of America, with a view to the payment ol the
draft given to Mr. Jiloody. This lie would be
fully able to prove.
An examination of all lire money transactions
of his client would have no other effect than to
cloud and confuse lhe specific charge; and by
'browing open to the public eye an immense
mass of transactions incapable of explanation in
the line of defence to which he was limited, im
pressions unfavorable to the interests of his
client would be made on the community here
and throughout the country, and would operate
to his prejudice when the remaining indictments
should be called up for trial. Ou these grounds
he called on the Court to restrict the United
States Attorney to such testimony as would
be relevant to the charge specified in the indict
ment.
Mr. Fendall, vhile he dissented from the
propositions advanced by his learned friend on
the olherside, stated, alter an examination <t
da'es, and statements of witnesses, which sus
tained the view of Mr. Carlisle, that h“ aban
doned lhe prosecution, on which a vo'lc piasequi
was entered on the records of the Court, under
protest from Mr. Carlisle, who claimed aver
diet of acquittal, a jury having been sworn, wit
nesses examined, and Mr. Fendall having in
he first instance assented, to lhe rendition ol
such a verdict.
Mr Fendall.afternavingcalled the witnesses
in the other cases, and finding that some ot them
did not attend, moved the Court for a postpone
ment until some djty not earlier than next Wed
nesday.
Me Carlisle objected to a postponement, and
claimed lhat the trials sh mid go on, unless ii
appeareu lhat there was sufficient cause for a
continuance, which wou.d operate le.-s inju
riously upon his client than a postponement
upon the uncertain expectation that the United
Stales’ witnesses could be here by lhe day sug
gested by Mr Fendall. He should offer no ob
jection it Mr. Fendall would move for a con
tinuance on the ground .hat it was necessary
in his opinion to the rublic justice.
Mr. Fendall insisted t.n the postponement,
and objected to a continuance; but the Court,
considering it unnecessary to deviate from the
usual course, ordered die cases to be continued
to the next (December) term. .

New York, July 11.
The extreme heat ofthe weather continues,
and the mercury at noon marked 88 and rising.
vV ith a degree of heat like this, business is out
ofthe questio.i, at least in lhe open air.
Stocks, under the influence of the weather and
the absence of operators, have again fallen,
without however sales of sufficient amount to
call the market duller than yesterday.
Travellers continue to pass through the city
for Niagara and lhe Springs ; and the fashion
able houses here are crowded to the roof. Al
though the commencement of lhe season at
Saratoga was so cool, the receipts of the United
States Hotel are some thousand dollars in ad
vance of the corresponding lime last year.
A change has been made in the hour of leav
ing by lhe Eastern afternoon boats not without
interest to Southern travellers. The regular
lines for Boston now leave at 6 P. M. instead
ol 5 as heretofore.

Agricultural Society of Barbour Co., Ala.
Ata meeting of the Agricultural Society ol
Barbour County, held in the Town Hall, on
Wednesday, 14th day <•( May, 18-15, pursuant
to adjournment, Reports of the different Com
mittees appointed at lhe last meeting were re
ceived, read, and ordered to be placed upon the
journal of said Society.
To Col. A. McDonald, President of the Barbour Coun
ty Agricultural Society :
Sir:—The Committee appointed at the las
meeting of your Society, to examine lhe gar
deus in the town ot Eufaula, beg leave to sub
mil the lollowmg report:
Owing to Bhe absence of some of lhe Commit
tee during most of lhe time since their appoint
ment, they have not been able to make so tho
rough an examination as they could have wish
ed. They have, however, performed that duty,
so far as the shortness of their time would per
mit, though under the most unfavorable auspi
ces, arising out of the long dry spell which has
just past. The Committee are happy to state,
that they find more general attention being paid
by the citizens to 'he cultivation and improve
ment ot their gardens than heretofore—as well
to the ornamental, as to the fruit and vegetable
department; but we may suggest to our fair
friends, the ladies, that there is still room forim
proventent, especially when we consider that it
contributes so much to the comforts of the ta
ble, and those mildergratificaiicns, aflmdiog no
less pleasure to the senses of smell and sight.
The vegetable gardens are well arranged and
supplied with every article common to this sec
tion, and in a fine state ot cultivation, though
they do not present as fresh and growing an ap
pearance as they would have otherwise done,
owing to the long drouth. And the committee
may be permitted to specify some articles that
are comparatively rate in this section.
They found at Mr. Thos. 1 lournoy’s the
rhubarb growing finely—this article is used to
making tarts, pies, &c., and much prized b
those having fine tastes; they also saw straw
berries ot several kinds in a state ol great per
fection.
Col. McDonald’s garden presents the freshest
and most luxuriant appearance of any that the
Committee have seen. Ee has a very great va
riety of vegetables, as well as rare fruits and
fl iwers, some ol which he imp Tie 1; and the
Committee must say that he deserves great cre
dit for his energy it. this interesting department
of culture.
Mr. Young excels in the frnhery; he has blue
and green gages so much nrzed at the North
Pears, peaches and apricots all growing on one
stem; Cherrys, apples, China oranges, and last,
though not least, the alpine strawberry ..rigo
'han a partridge egg.
Mr. Calhoun has the finest raspberries, some
new kinds ol squash, and ail lhe varieties ofthe
aliutn; also, an asparagus bed in preparation.
He sows the seed broadcast in common earth,
■ be next spring they are to be taken up, and the
t ed to be thrown out to the depth ot a toot and
a half, then laid at the bottom with brick, then
tilled with common earth, well mixed with ma
nure, and the root set very deep; thev are tnen
allowed to grow for cutting. Mr. Paulim in
forms us ot another plan which be regards as
being better, which is simply to sow the seed in
rows one foot and a half in width—the next
spring, excavate about a toot in width and a
toot and a half in dep'h between the rows, fill it
uu with manure, and let the earth thrown up be
tor a 'op covering this is easierand more sim
ple, an I regarded aspreterable. Mr. P. has the
old field plum in a stateof cultivation, and much
unproved by it, as lhe Committee can testify by
having consulted freely their sense of taste.
Gen. Welborn has the Cuba strawberry, and
a very pretty ornamental garden; saw there tour
live oaks, transplanted from the coast of Flori
da by Col. Coyhran.
Dr. Battle’s garden is good, but he is more
skilled in the useful than the ornamental. The
same may he said of Col. Hunter. General
Shorter’s garden does not present so fresh and
growing an appearance as so ne others, but
more forward. He has squashes, cucumbers,
Irish potatoes in great numbers, and what is
rare at this season, the summer turnip; also, the
rannier, which is not common; the truitery is
-ell supplied, and the ornamental not excel ed
by any. Here uiay be seen oleanders, Cuba
lillies, several kinds of the geranium, and the
wax plant, now in bloom, and possessing rare
neauty. The senior editor ol the Shield has
some skill in other departments than that of
typography; judging from appearances, we
should say that he was a gardener by nature as
well as by name.
The Committee would have been pleased to
have pursued lhe examination further, but for
want ot time our report must here close.
Allot which is respectfully submitted.

Col. A McDonald, who bad been selected to
deliver an address before the Society upon ag
rieulture, performed lhe duty in an able and in
teresiing mannep. The question selected at the
last meeting, tor discussion, viz: What benefit
arises from agricultural societies? wasdisetissed
hy 11 Hemphill, Col. John G Shorter and the
Rev Charles Evans.
Col. McDonald offered the following resolu
tion :
Resolved, That in the death of William
Beauchamp. Esq., the Barbour County Agri
cultural Society, has lost one of its earliest, most
active and useful members, and the community
at large one of its most worthy citizens.
On motion of Mr. Thos. Flournoy, a Com
mittee of three were appointed by the Chair,
consisting of Messrs. Tho’s. Flournoy, Abney
and J. G Shorter, to make arrangements for a
public dinner, to be given by the society on the
fourth of July next, and to select a suitable in
dividual to deliver an address on that day.
On motion of Benj. Gardner, Esq., the pro
ceedings, with lhe address >f Col. McDonald,
were on'eredlo be published in the Sautjiern
Shield. HF
Reports of Committees appointed to ascertain
and report the increase, diminution, &c., of the
various crops of the farmers of Barbour county,
report that they have examined twenty-two
farms, which have in cultivation 2460 acres of
cotton, 2976 acres of corn, 384 acres ot potatoes,
270 acresol small grain, 53 acres ot rice; and
they find upon the farms above ai I tided to, an in
crease of the provision cropof 962 acres, about
that ot last year, and lhat there is a reduction of
400 acres in the cotton crop ; they report lhat
more attention is paid to the raising of stock. &c.
On motion, the Society adjourned to 4th Joly
next. H. Hemphill, Sec’y.
Artificial Manures.
From the Albany Cultivator.
The preparation anil use of manures consti
tute one ofthe points in which the advance ot
modern agrir ulture is most apparent. For this
advance, we are indebted to the application of
chemical science to an investigation of the sub
stances most commonly used to promote the
growth of plants. An imitation of the operations
of nature has thus been effected, in which
there lias been a decided improvement on the
original, as the change necessary to conveit or
ganic matter into the fertilizing material i» et
tected in a very short time; lhe bulk diminish
ed while the efficiency is increased; and the
disgusting offensive character beloging to some
ofthe original compounds entirely done away
Substances, too, once wasted, or rather consi
dered ol no value, are now in the course of a
lew weeks converted into manures ot the first
quality. Every discovery ot this kind is of im
portance to the agriculturist; for although some
of them, it is probable, will not be made useful
on a large scale, and some ofthe preparations
cannot become common in this country; sti 1
there ate many which we are confident w ill be
extensively used even'where- the btrLei
they are known, the more highly appteciatcd by
lhe farmer orgatdner.
Poudrelte, or prepared night soil, is one ofthe
most valuable of these prepared manures, con
centrating in a great degree the elements ol ler
tility; and as prepared, being easily ponable,
used with taciliiy, perfectly inoffensive, and ver,
poiierlul in its action. The demand for tins
article is eonsianily increasing, and the proof,
of the value ol the manure rapidly aecumula
ling. The value of poudrelte, compared with
good stable or barn yard manure, is estrmaren
as one of the funner tu from 12to 15 ot the lat
ter; and some have even estimated lhe differ
ence as still greater. When we remember tba
this manufacture is designed tu convert wha
has always been a nuisance and source of mul
tiplied diseases in our cities, into a means o.
fertility and uealtb, its importance will be duty
estimated.
Another preparation, which is receiving some
favor, is that produced by Bommer’s patent, in
which ail ligneous or woody plants, such as
straw, cornstalks, weeds, tools, sea grass, and
in tact all vegetable matters, are converted into
manure in a much shorter period than by the
usual courseot decomposition. It is pronounc
etl, as efficient as stable manure, more lasting,
and costing but little. The process of prepar
ing this manure ha. nothing difficult ab-.ut it
It is probable the patent, lor a time, even wer<
it-value unquestioned, prevents the extensive
use which this mod - ol preparing vegetable
natter might otherwise have obtained. Ofthe
peculiar forms of the pr< cess we know nothing ;
but lhe testimony in its favor from those who
have tried >t, appears ample. Patent manures,
patent implements, ana patent medicines, ar.
very apt, however, by practical farmers, to be
placed in the same category.
The English agricultural journals have with
in the past year frequently alluded to lhe quali
ties ol a new fertilizing preparation calleo Dan
iel’s Patent M nure. The specifications ot
■he patent have been received in this coun
try; and though evidently int nded to mystily,
ralbei than disclose, the real process of making
lhe ma ure, it is easy to see that a powerful
manure must be lhe result ol the combination
According to the specification, the materials ot
the manure are divided into three classes.—
First: ligneous matters, peat, straw, weeds, &e.
Second: bituminous mailers ; such as mineral
coal, (bitu.i.inous doubtless) asphaltum, pitch
made from coal tar, or other pitch, mineral
resin, and also tar. Third: animal matter;
such as butcher’s offal, graves, flesh of dead ani
mals, also fish.
The ligneous matters are reduced to powder
by grinding, or by the action ot caustic lime.
The bituminous matters are also ground into
powder; il sticky like pitch, a small quantity
of dry quick lime is added to prevent adhesion
to the machine; if liquid, they are converted
into vapor bv dry distillation, in which vapor
the ligneous materials are saturated; or it pre
ferred, the soft bituminous mattets are dissolved
in water, to whit h caustic alkali has been added,
and in this the ligneous matters are steeped
The animalmatlers aretnixed with theligneous
and bituminous ones, and then the whole re
duced to a powder.
Such a preparation cannot fail to be a fertili
zer ofthe most powerful Kind, though it is evi
dent lhe process needs much simplification be
fore it can be adapted to the use ol farmers gen
erally.
Guano is probably the most powerful natural
manure known; and the artificial one that shall
most nearly resemble lhat, will doubtless be lhe
most valuable. Voelckel’s analysis, the latest
and bestol this substance, as given by Dr. Dana
in hi- Muck Manual, shows tnat it contains in
the various salts of ammonia 3-2 parts in 100,
sulphates ol potash and soda 9 pans, phosphate
ol liu.e 11 parts, soluble geine or humus 12
l arts, and insoluble undetermined organic mat
ter SOparts. The ailifieial manures are valua
ble in proportion as they furnish the materials
for the ammonia, phospba’es, and sulphates,
which abound in guano. It is likely, indeed
certain, that the immense masses ot guano ex
isting on the islands of the Pacific, are in a very
different chemical condition from what they
were when first deposited by lhe sea fowl that
frequent those coasts and islands ; consequently
in no fresh manures in any country, can we ex
pect to find the same combination of fertilizing
substances as in guano. In no other country
couldsuch masses have remained without the
wasting or dissipation of their most valuable
parts, or their entire substance; the nearly total
absence ot rain in the guano region, preventing
such a result. The guano is, therefore, not on
ly the result of the accumulation, but the che
mical comoinaiiou of ages, and what agricul
ture require, of science, is the d’seovery ot the
means of effecting in a short time what nature
has been centuries performing.
In all preparations "f artificial manures, two
conditions are requisite; first, value as a ferti
lizer ; and second, facility and simplicity of
preparation. With the first, the labor of man
ufacture is lost; without the second, few lar
mere will lie able to avail themselves ofthe be
nefi's such manures offer. Thus far, we are
inclined to the belief, that ot all the artificial
anues, poudrettebest fulfils these two condi
tions; hot it by no means follows lhat other
ombinations may not be discovered, equally
simple, and more powerful. Ol oae thing we
may be assured ; all snch preparations, when
brought within his reach and his means, will
be hailed by the farmer with pleasure.

To Preserve M ilk.—At this warm season,
it may be interesting to some of our readers to
know, that Johnston, in his Agricultural Che
mistry, says: “An easy way of preserving
milk or cream sweet for a It nger time, or of re
moving the sourness when it has already come
on, is to add to it a small quantity ofthe common
soda, pearl ash, or maenesia ol the shops.—
Enough is added, when a little of lhe milk
poured into boiling water no longer throws up
any curd. It milk be introduced into bottles,
be then well corked, put into a pan with cold
water, and gradually r ised tn the boiling point
and after being allowed to cool, be taken out
and set away in a cool place, the milk may be
preserved perfectly sweet for upwards of half a
year.” H» says, another mode is, to evaporate
it to dryne«s by a gentle heat, tinder constant
stirring. By this means a dry mass is obtained
which may be preserved tor a length ot time,
and which, when dissolved in water, is said to
possess all the properties of the most excellent
milk. It is known in Italy by lhe name of
latteina.

Callon— lt will he recollected lhat in our report of
the morning of the 4th inst. we slated that within a
lew days the operations in Upland had been brought to
a close in consequence of the high figuies demanded
for the article; and the market continued to the close
of the week in a slate of total stagnation. <»n Monday
'he adyidc.H per the Acadia reached us, and although
they did not shew any advance in this staple, presented
very flattering prospects hr relation tn the state of trade
generally, which imparted an additional degree of con
fidence to holders, and brought one or two purchasers
into the market, who have during the week operated to
a moderate extent, and decidedly better terms have
been obtained by the sellers than those current pre
vious to the receipt of these accounts from the other
side. The receipts since our reach 2633 bales, and
the sales in the same time 1009 bales, as follows:—29

Some 15 0 bushels I’eashave been received since our

Since our la*t review we have received ad vices from

Notwithstanding they exhibit a slight decline in the ,
former market, they have had Hide or no effect on ours,
as the stock in first hands is light and mostly limited
in price, and holders show not the least disposition to
sell, unless they can obtain their own pi ices. We have
had fine rains both here and in ‘he interior but not
sufficient to have any good effect on our rivers, which
continue very low. There has been a good inquiry for
both Uplands and Sea Islands this week, but the’sales
of both descriptions have been limited, and confined

Tex 8 Cotton—We h.-vc ascertained, through the po
liteness of Mr Samuel Boyd. Custom-House weigher,
that the total receipts of Texas Cotton at this port since
the Ist Sept last have been 24.458 bales. This amount
is included in our receipts proper, which wc this day
make 939.815 bales. Deduct the 24 453 bales Texas, and
the total receipts of United States Cotto- at this port,
apart fioni what has been received from Mobile and
Florida, are 915.387 bales.
The past week has been one of very little activity in
the market generally The supply of Colton, our great
staple of export, is reduced to the trifling amount of a
few hundred bales; a quantity so small as tn be with
out parallel—at least for many years—al this peiiod of
the season.
The river has risen about 4 feet since our last report,
being only 2| feet below high-water mark, and still

Our last aturday’s report left the Cotton market so
bare of stock that no trans ctionsof consequence could
take place, although a good deal ot inquiry existed foi
limited parcels, principally for the purpose of meeting
shipping engagement-s. On Saturday the mail brought
u\ the European accounts per Caledonia, which ate
from Liverpool to the 4th and from Havre to the 2d
June. These advices have had no effect whatever upon
our own market, and had they been even more unfavo
rable it is not probable that they would have had any
influence, as the stock now on hand—which we have
ascertained and particularly sta'ed in another place—
is ton unimportant to receive any impression from the
mai kets abroad The sales nf the past week amount
to I4"O bales, which have been taken in such limited
parcels as could occasionally be met with, and almost
entirely for the purpose of completing cargoes to ena
ble vessels that hav? been a long time on the berth to
hasten their departure; and it will he readily understood
that under such circumstances, there being more buy
ers than sellers, prices have leas reference to the rela
tive values in this and other markets than to the
necessities of parties, and are therefore very'full, and
so irregular that it is impossible to quote with strict
accuracy. We, however, retain our previous figures,
remarking that the few sales that have come to our
knowledge have been at rates fully up to and tn some
instances, perhaps, above our highest range of quo
tation*. and it is doubtful whether all the scattering
lots at the moment on sale would amount in the ag
gregate to 590 bales. The actual stock in Presses,
Warehouses <fcc., it will be seen, amounted on the 2d
instant to only 4574 bales, the greater part of which is
either going on ship board, or having already passed
nto second hands, is held for a still further advance :
o that as regards the crop of 1814-45 the season may be
onsidered as closed

702 bales, remaining on hand at the close of tlie week.
The receipts in corresponding week last year 444 bales,
exports 601 and stock 11,093 bales. Shock same time
1843. 1609 bales.
The estimated balance of stock unsold at our last
weekly report was 4*lo bales, which with the parcels
received since, gives a supply of less than 500 bales,
about one ba«f ot which is either limited or held at rates
considerably above the market. With so trifling a
stock there can of course but little of interes* attach to
the movements of our market. The sales amount to
abou : 175 bale*, of which one crop of 50 bales (mid. to
mid fair) at 69 16c the principal transaction, the
balance chiefly wagon cotton, picked up in small In’s
as it arrived at prices varying from 5f to6‘c. Buying
for shipment to New York. With the exception of the
