This great city did not feel the sliock of the late war so sensibly as most of our Southern cities, dnrin tlio continuance of the conflict. It was sooii overpowered by the forces of tiie United States, and occupied by them without being burned and des troyed as Atlanta and others were. It was only plundered of some of its riches by Butler and some others.— At the conclusion of the war, many citizens of the South, from other States, crippled in fortune, but desi rous to rc-commencc life afresh, os soon as channels of communication, by means of railroads or otherwise, were re-opened, flocked to New Or leans with a view of entering into some kind of business, and tho city became crowded to excess with these now comers. All could not obtuin tho means of living and many of tiiosc who hud looked upon it us a desirable residence, after making in- Ifectual efforts to obtain a lodgement a our midst, were induced to aban don their original design and wont elsewhere. Men of rare energy and with some means, and whose capacities for busi ness udupted them to a city life, pre ferring New Orleans to, any of our Southern emporiums, (because it had suffered less than any of them, nnd had a great commercial future to achieve for itself) still remained on tlio spot, und have hud no cause to regret their determination. Many of them have extricated themselves from tiie ditliculties in which they were in volved by tlio war, or arc in the course of doing so as rapidly as could be expected. If New Orleans was not so imme diately exposed to the Bhock of war as our other cities,it has, notwithstand ing, experienced some of the worst re sults of it Among these lias been u vast influx from the North, since tiie war, of the most worthless iKirtion of its population—of men without means and destitute of principle, who, in the revolutions of the times, have been enabled to outnumber nnd outvote the old inhabitants, and to monopolize all the honors and offices of tiie government, State us well as municipal. Tiie city is, at tho same timo, filled with emancipated slaves, multitudes of whom have preferred a life of com parative indolence in the city to tho labors of plantation life, however well remunerated. I shall not at tempt to solve the problem suggested by this new phase in the social system of the South, forced upon us more by the jealousy, than the conscientious convictions, of the North, hut am quite satisfied that two races separa ted from each other by the broad dis tinction of color—the one character ized by intelligence and enterprize, the other by indolence and stupidity— cannot long exist together in relations of social and political equality. The recent overflow of a portion of this city, though productive of much suffering, and not a little inconve nience to many families, has not, as yet, been attended with any injurious results to the health of the commu nity. The heat of JuIy has, thus far, been great, but there is an exemption, this season, from that desolating epi demic, which has often proved fatal to our population; and the general impression sterns to be, that we shall.havc a healthy summer, and that there will he on active resumption of business of all kinds, after the interval of ubout , ittctl (stilt lorded lu* creasing prosperity. Yours, &c. Meantime, our citizens, in consider able numbers, urc frequenting the places of summer resort iu our ini mediate neighborhood; fewer than usual are visiting the North for pur poses of mere recreation, and a good ly number are oil the point of em barking for Europe, for the lirst time, on a brief visit. The members of the bar are enjoying a vacation, after eight months severe labor, which is very necessary for (he recu]>ciuUuii of their energies. One member of a legal Arm usually travels during sum mer, and his partner, the next year, takes hit turn. J udge John A. Camp bell, formerly of tho United States Supremo Court, -who figured so prominently iu tho Confederate Com missioners’ correspondence with Mr. Seward, at tho beginning of the war, is taking the position of leader of tho New Orleans liar, to which his emi nent talent and grout legal loro en title him. A Georgian by birth, the splendor of his genius reflects honor ou his native .State. 'There is a cessation of theatrical amusements and of the ojiera here during the summer; hut a new the atre, on a grand scale, is being erected to supply the place of tho “Varieties,” consumed by lire, and early autumn may be expected to revive tlio theatri cal furore for which our people arc so rcmarkublc. The New Orleans press has reached tho most leaden period iu its annual progress, aud is wofully at loss, just now, for subjects calculated to in terest the public mind. Governor Warmoth, whoso antics attracted attention, is abroad at a water ing place for the recovery of an afflicted corporeal member, which is essential, in some degree, to the movement of a pedestrian. In the meantime, an attempt has been made to create a division in the ranks of tlio Uudical party; but our African Lieutenant Governor, though a man of ordinary good sense, does uot pos sess the brilliant qualities that tit him for the head of a party, and his at tempt to take the wind out of the sails of Warmoth has proved a fail ure. The proceedings of the Radical Editor’s Convention, of which you have seen an account in the newspa- (icrs, may convince you what a set of ninnies are assuming to coutrol pub lic opinion in a State, formerly dis tinguished for its intelleigiiccaud tho influence it exerted. There is no want of energy here, aud notwithstanding the gloom that hovers over the political horoscope, the progress which this city has re cently made iu establishing new and profitable connections with other ci ties and sections of the country, is highlit ncouraging. There are many buildings private and public going up here at tins time, which are also in dicative of reviving trade und iu- vidiug uuseetiouul school books tor when it becomes to them u matter of Southern children ; it bus brought to our notion tho great and patriotic purposes this Company has in view, and lias ena bled General Gordon toccrouiplisliwiich liioro than ho could havo done under uth- or circumstances, probably, uttliis season.

Iu full view uf nil tho facts elicited l>y this discussion—of the vast importance of this movement to tho .South aud the grout success of this Company, I have myself become a stockholder, and upon these double grounds I request tlio publi cation, by you, of this article. Lons VILER ,Stockholm:}!, IVANUOE. Louisville Publishing House. Louisville, Ky., July 14. Rlilor Atlanta Sun—Sir: I see in your issue of recent date, handed mo by a friend, that you oopy an artiolo from tho Louisvillo Courier-Journal, which lias been retracted by that paper itself, aud pronounced ns fulso ky General Gordon over his own signature. In view of these facts, I was not a lit tle surprised, to find you had admitted it to your columns. Tho fact that you have done this nearly a month after its publi cation hero and retraction, led me to bo- licve it did not find its way into your pa per, ns do ordinary clippings from your exchanges. This beln-f became a con viction when I noticed in the same pa per tho advertisement of John X’. Mor ton A Co., of this city, the Publishers of Goodrich's Readers. I became thou sat isfied it was only a part of tho gouerul plan of John P. Jlorton Sc Co., begun rero to injure a rival Publishing Compa ny—tlio grand scope of whose patriotic design, aud whoso great merit threaten entirely to overshadow the pretensions of the Louisvillo Bouse. Tho whole attack here has had a most inglorionH ending for John P. Morton Ac. Tho facts will convince you and your readers of this. Tho publication of Gen. Gordon's Card and the retraction of the article you publish, were followed by a series of attacks proceeding ittree/fy from the llonso of John P. Merton, ScCo., upon the University Publishing Compa ny, its kooks ami their distinguished au thors. The fully, weakness and worthlessness of these attacks, have been shown by the voluntary replies of two citizens of Lou isville—one lieing a very distinguished Confederate General. They havo also been answered by the agent of the Com pany at this place. The absurdity of this whole attack — its selfish pur()Ose—has been plainly seen by tho people of Louisville, aud has only resulted in damage to tho ilouso making it. 1 ncod say nothing more of the charac ter of this warfare upon the University Publishing Company, than that tho most distinguished Geographer living—Com modore M. F. Maury—is characterized by thin champion of John P. Morton A Co’s Books, as a "Penny-a-liner." This about on a pur with tile halanco of the criticisms, and yonr people will agree with me, that such u remark made by Jno. P. Morton A Co., in reference to the most distinguished Educators of tho South, is about equivalent to a village politician charging Webster or Calhoun with being a political charlatan. I will only uild that in common with many of tho citizens of Louisville, I have felt deeply mortified, that the reputation of our city, aud of our busiuoss men for fair and honorable competition, should have been compromised und sullied, by such au attack. I assure you, however, that the design has been so transparent as to result in good to tho University Publishing Company. Tho controver sy has aervod to demonstrate the great superiority of that Company’s books, it has brought prominently bo- fore our peoplu the fact that the greatest , of (Southern educators have at last turned a couple of months from this date.— I their attention to the good work of pro- From Uu- Macon Talt'grai>li. Cotton Facts nuil Figures, anil Speculations. The Chronicle, of Friday night, makes the visible supply at that date 1,899,192 bales against 1,5-10,849 at the same date last year—showing ail increase of 992,25:1 bales. The in crease shown Friday uight, the 8th, was 338,000 bales. The sales for fu ture delivery during last week in New York reached 72,150 hales, and in cluded several lots for January next at nineteen cents. Sales for imme diate delivery were 14,104 bales, ranging from sixteen to twenty-one cents—tho latter for middling. Low middling ranged from 19 7-8 to 20 3-8. Mr. B. F. Noursc, a correspondent of the Chronicle, in a long article, the spirit of which, (though not tliel figures) is indorsed by the editors of that paper, says it is high time to put tlio brakes on tlio cotton trade. Since May Ktli prices have advanced in American murkets forty to forty-live per cent, ou the better grades, and sixty to seventy-five per cent on the lower, and twenty.fivo to thirty per cent, in Europe. The prevailing ten dency of cotton, he says, is to under stand the existing supplies—under estimate the prospective supplies and exaggerate consumption. The simple truth is good enough for the producers—lirst, in the recog nition of the fact that cotton, during tho post season, was too cheap—not in relation to productive cost—for that never controls prices; but in re lation to the gold value of all other marketable commodities. Second, in the actual increase of consumption by reason of low prices; aud third, in the alarm respecting the extent of future supplies. What the facts are lie goes on to state at length. As to consumption the heaviest increase known la-fore the war was in I860, und was only 4,350 bales a week over tho weekly rate of 1859—or a little under ten per cent The lutost official returns show 32,J 000,000 spindles in the united king dom, against 30,000,000 in I860, and the maximum incrcusc can therefore be only twelve jicr cent., reaching the limits of capacity. True, the ma chinery has been improved, but the yarns and fabrics have lx-en reduced ill weight. The English consump tion in 1870 was the same us in 1800, but the mills were not worked to full capacity, and it is possible that this year the increased consumption may reach 12 per cent Of Jtliat excess one-half or more has already been supplied, and only live to six percent, remain to be furnished. The totul consumption of 1870 was 2,797,090 bales, or an average of 53,- 700 per week. The highest rate for any three months was about 54,500 bales of the average weight of that year. Adding six per cent., we have 57,770 bales of the greater weight of this year—equul to 3,004,000 bales fur the whole year if nothing occurs to reduce consumption. These estimates arc sustained by official figures taken underact of Parliament, which show that the actual consumption for the first five months of the current year was 1,205,041 bales, or as the rate of 57,500 bales per week. The consumption of tlio continent, allowing ten per cent, increase upon tbo full work of 18G9 nnd taking into account relative weight of bales, will be 1,900,000—or3G,700 bales per week. Tho home consumption lie reasons at length to be 050,000 hales, or ail aver age of 18,270 (ler week. The total requirement of the world’s consump tion for the full year, ho estimates at 5,780,300 bales, or an excess of only 408.000 bales, against the require ments of lust year. To meet this excess he says the ex cess in the American crop of lost yeur alone is 1,120,000. und in other coun tries it promises to be 230,000—so that wo have a crop excess of 1,350,- 000 bales to meet un excess in con sumption of only 4G8,OOObalcs—leav ing 882,000 bales gain in stock during the year; to which add 750,000 as the stock October 1, 1870, nnd we have 1.032.000 bales surplus as the stock on band October 1, 1871. All this is very alarming, and wc wish to blow the biggest kind , of a trumpet over it. Wo wish the ever lasting cotton farmers to sue that though cotton may be worth 10 cents when they have got none to sell—by the time they pick their crops it may not lie worth G cents; because the world lias got enough to rattle its mills on for ubout four months after October next uml never buy u single bulc from uplanter. It is iu the con dition of a man who has got his coop full of fut .chickens, looking into a countryman's curt, lie’s mighty in different about buying more, and lie won't buy until you muke it to hi* in/erent to buy. You must come down handsomely or go home with your chickens. Keep your chickens home till his coop is empty, and lie is a great deal more polite and accom modating. If our farmers over sen the day great indifference whether they sell cotton in Octolier or July, they will set- the same change in cotton-buyeis aud cotton consumers. But in order to get on that footing you must niuke cotton a side issue—surround your selves with abundance of food, nnd found so that you can lie fut and hap py pretty much on the resources of your own lurid.
