THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER^?!
Cotton. —From the November number of De
jsUv'.« Review, it appears that the total cotton
fr opo: the United States in 1852-53 was 3,262,-
bales, ti» which, if we add the previous
on hand or 91,170 bales, we have for the
w tal quantity now 3,354,058 bales. Os this
g liOiiut, at ter deducting the foreign export and a
stock on hand in the country of 135,043 bales,
ami 20,861 bales burnt at New Orleans there re
gain 071,004 bales /or home consumption
gainst 603,029 last year, and 404.108 the year
before, exclusive of the amount consumed by
manufacturers south of Virginia. In this and
southern establishments, it is estimated that 20,-
bOO bales are used in North Carolina, 10,000 in
South Carolina, 20,000 in Georgia, 5,000 in Ala
bama, 5.000 in Tennessee, and 30,000 on the
Obi); making a total of 90,000 bales; which,
jf added to the stock of interior towas, etc., give
a total crop of the U. S. last year, of about 3,-
360 000 bales.
In 1851 the cotton exported from the United
Sates amounted to $112,315,317. In 1852 the
value of the cotton exported from the ports ot
tae Gulf of Mexico alone amounted to about
j|j 00.000, 000; and the other products from the
same ports amounted to $100,000,000 more.—
The total value of the cotton exported from the
United States from 1790 to 1851, was $1,711,-
691,670. _ ___ A__
Miss Lucy Stone has been with
great success in Louisville, Ivy. There as every
where else, there seems to be but one opinion as
to her ability; and it is much to be regretted
that so capable a woman, cannot find a more ap
propriate snhere than the lecture-room, in which
to display the high endowments which nature
has bestowed upon her. The Louisville Cou
rier, alluding to her lectures, says : “ The lecture
we can unhesitatingly say was chuck full of
common sense, that being its peculiar and most
pleasing feature. Miss Stone is most certainly
a : extraordinary woman, and possessed of pow
ers of extern pore address, rarely the birth-right
or acquired property of even celebrated male
orators/’
Don Jose Manuel Gallegos, has been elected
to Congress from the territory of New Mexico.
H<? neither understandsr nor speaks a word of

Cane Juice Punch. —A South-Western edi
tor was lately invited to a Louisiana Sugar plan
tation,and was there treated to a molasses mix
ture called “Cane Juice Punch, 77 concerning
which he descants most mellifluously. Hear
him!
•‘Canejuice punch! Think of that, ye poor
benigh'ed city editors! Did any of you ever
taste it ? Do you know what it is ? No, we
know you don’t, and the worst ot it is, we can’t
describe it to you, but just imagine the ambro
sial nectar which the youthful Ganymede was
wont to pour into the emeiald cupot the mighty
Jupiter, and you will have some idea ot it. In
tact, it is such a drink as would make a Moslem
forswear the Koran, a teetotaller break the
pledge—nay, we believe that Matthew would
take a glass of it. That is as near as we can come
to the description of cane juice punch, and we ad
vise those who have not yet tried it. to do so as
soon as they can.
Bad advice that, judging from the effects the
liquor has had in punching all rational ideas out
ol the brain of the individual aforsaid, and star
ting him on the “high Talutin' 7 Locomotive prin

Further News by the America.
We published on Saturday such of the foreign
intelligence by the America, to the 29th
had then come to hand. We give other portions
below.
On the questions mainly interesting, the dis
pute between Turkey and Russia, the intelli
gence is meagre. It embraces various rumors,
some directly contradicting the other, but the
latest and. most, generally believed was the despatch
from Bucharest, October 25, saying that two
Russian steamers and eight gun boats had forced
the passage ot the Danube, fired upon so briskly
by the Turkish fort at Isaktchi that they had 4
officers and 12 sailors killed, and 40 wounded.
But the Russians say they set fire to the fort with
a shell.
The Eastern Question. —Several papers pub
lish the following spurious despatch via Vienna,
October 22:
r “The armj f of Omar Pasha, which could be
kept back no longer, has passed the Danube and
beaten the Russians at Oltenitza. The Russian
vessels on the Danube have fallen into the hands
of the Turks.”
The lollowing is more reliable, telegraphed on
the 2(jth, via Brussels:
“A skirmish on the Danube is reported from
Vienna. 19th—No fieet at Constantinople. It
was not believed that any pitched battle had
been fought.”
The Russians aie establishing a strong reserve
at Galjitz.
A pontoon corps had left Bucharest for the
Danube. The weather continued mild, and fa
vorable for military operations. 25,000 Rus
sians had landed at Redout Kale, with the sup
posed intention ot attacking Baltoum.
The Russian army was in a bad state from
sickness and scarcity.
Manthimour, a man of energy, opposed to Rus
sia, but favorable to a revivification of the Greek
Church, is elected Patriarch of Constantinople,
and has- been invited to attend a meeting of the
Cabinet.
The St. Petersburg Journal has an article
which is decidedly in favor of further negotia
tions.
Martin Koszta is on his way to Boston.
Great Britain — A meeting of the inhabi
tants ot the Tower Hamlets. London, Captain

chanics’ institute at Barnsley, proposing as a
model for imitation the educational operations
of the United States.
A movement is on foot to erect a monument

tor.
France. —Disturbances had occurred in some

rise in wheat to the greater demand for seed this
season.

Gen.de Newiily was killed difficulty with
his aid-de-camp, Capt. La Porta, at Chalons Sur

Italy. —The Pope is recruiting in health. He

reduced rate.
Austria. —The government begins to be un
easy at the increasing prices of provisions, and
proposes to diminish the cost of transportation of
gram on the railways.
Greece. — Athens, 21st.—The Ministers of
Finance and War have been dismissed.
The free importation ot corn is determined on.
A loan of five millions of drachms is proposed.
Commercial Intelligence.
Liverpool Cotton Market. —Consumers
take only for present use, and speculators and
expotrers have bought cautiously and only when
inducement attempted. The strikes at Wigan
and Preston continues, with others threatened,
but on the whole they are balanced by the un
favorably reports of the crops.
Liverpool Corn Market. —Prices of all
kinds well supported, and still tend upward.—
Flour in good enquiry at the 6d. a Is. advance
of the week. Indian Corn in speculative de
mand at 2s. a 3s. dearer.
Havre Markets.— -In the week, to the 25th
of October inclusive, the market for cotton open
ed active, closing dull—stock on hand, 68,000
bales. Quotations ranged from 70 to 105 f. for
New Orleans ; 70 to 94f. for Mobile, and 70 to
91 for Uplands.
The reports from the manufacturing districts
are not encouraging. Ashes well; Coffee still;
Rice unchanged, but rather slack; Tallow and
Lard sustained ; stock low.

report Consols as fluctuating worn 92&a94L

erpool on Saturday, 29th.
Political Intelligence. —The passage of
the Danube and the occupation of Kalapat by the
Turks, is confirmed, and the Russians were con
centrating and preparing to attack them.
Additional and further accounts by the Baltic
are conflicting as to the state of affairs in the
East. It is stated that a new proposition has
been sent to the Divan from the tour powers,
and that an armistice had been agreed on be
tween Russia and Turkey. Other accounts say
that the story of an armistice has foundation
only in the instructions from the Porte to Omar
Pasha, not to commence hostilities before the
Ist November —that is, provided the instructions
had not been anticipated by an actual conflict.
It is also stated again, that the Turk-had
crossed the Danube without opposition, in great
strength, had occupied Kalatat,and would speedi
ly attack the Russians.
