Extract of u letter from n highly respectable house, dated LIVERPOOL, May 7 . Cotton —Prices have generally declined throughout the week } as!. wbiie in some instances where sales were Kr cash, the decline has been fully sd. Money continues as tight as ever. Western Canal Flour has advanced, and is quoted at 44s per bid. The demand fur Indian Corn is large at the advance of 52a a 54s per quarter. Afraid ot the Holders! During the hiegbt of the opposition be tween the two g team boat lines, running from the Kennebec to Boston, last summer, and just as the rival boats were making ready to start, a wagon hove in sight, in which was an old lady, with an accompaniment of band boxes and bundles, evidently equipped for a' journey. The respective agents ot the lines sprang towards her. “ Take the Marshall, rnarm?—tine boat, "Try the Penobscot, new boat, built last sommt r, commanded by the favorite or everybody—Capt. ,”&c., 4 &c. The boys and loafers around, ech >ed toe claims of thtir favorite in concert.— “Hurrah for the Penobscot,” “Go to the John Marshall.” The old lady, who had prnbabiv never seen a steamboat before, and whose chief notion of the varments was con nected with their boiler-bursting propensities, was almost beside herself with terror, at the hubbub. “O, Lord}! I wish I’d never stirred a step —if I’d a known there was to be such an awful time as this, I’m sure 1 wouldn’t. The pesky tilers—l know they’ll bust—every body’s looking after me; and nobody’s attend ing to’em. There, go right away, alio! you, I’m going straight bark. 1 couldn’t rest a wink for fear of them pesky bilers.” “You need give youself no anxiety on ac count of the boilers in the Marshall,” said the agent of the M.,j“lhey tire new and sound, and couldn’t be made to burst.” “Are you sure of it?” said the old lady, evincing symptoms of a favorable disposition towards the Marshall—“you ain’t a tryin’ to practize on the credulity of a poor lone wo man, I hope?” “No fear of me—sound as a teakettle,” • was the reply. The old lady was about descending from the wagon, to embark in the Marshall, when No. *J sapped up. “Madam,” said lie, in a serious tone, “no doubt the Marshall’s boilers are good enough, but the best boilers are dangerous tilings.— We knew that a great many people had been killed bv them—especia.iy ot late—and look the boilers out of o nr boat three toeeks ayn!" “You did,” said she; “tiiat’s the boat for me, then, James (to the boy in the wagon) pass out the basket, arid the bonnet box, and llie umbrella, and parasol—and don t forget the new shoes and doughnuts, under (he seat. Tel! Sally I went in the boat without any b !**rs, and ©he need have iu tears ol me.’ liostonian. MTliA.il HO AT tOUPAAY OF tiUUP GIA.

Cotton. — We have no new feature to notice in the cotton mar ket since our publication of the 20th ultimo.— Holders generally have withdrawn their supplies until such time as we shall receive later intelli gence from the other side; and the transactions of the week just brought to a close, like those of the preceding one, have been both limited and confined alrnosr exclusively to one house, at about the prices p.dd last week. It is impossible, under existing circumstances, to give q i gallons. The sales since our last leach near 1100 bales, against ttie receipt in ttie same time 0f2585 bales. The actual transactions areas follows, viz: 15 bales et 10; 24 at 10|, 195 at lOi: 100 at 10|; 230 at io|;37 at 105; 87 at 11, 87 at Hi; 108 at Up J 5 at 111; 15 at 1! J; and 44 bales at 11|. Some 163 bales of Nankeen Cotton were also sold at 2|c. The market for Long Cotton has been quiet since our last. There has been some in quiry for the various description, but purchasers were demanding reduced limits, to which holders •would not submit, and hence the light operations. The sales have been limited to 150 bales of the qualities ranging from stained to very inferior and middling fair at from 20 to 33c. E’rei/srhis —We quote Cotton to Liverpool, in square and round bags, 7-U> a 9-lu, with very lit tle offering, particularly ot the former. To 1 lavro cotton at lc.. and S 3 25 for Rice.
