these, butjjthey may be estimated at something, (and I would be disposed to place tolerable large figures to each.) and they, with the amount of transit duties remitted our merchants in the shape of bridge toll for merchandize received and produce shipped, would go far to reduce the nominal loss which the city treasury would sus tain in its tariff on drays and wagons, to and from the Rail Road at Hamburg and Augusta. Let us, then, reduce the whole, so far as we can, to figures, and see how we should stand; and when such blanks as I have are filled up by those who can and will fairly estimate them, are added in, see if it may not be to our interest to do now, what may be done hereafter when we will not be parties to represent such interests—or, at any rate, when we will not have the power to name and de mand conditions. The lower Bridge cost the City ... SIOO,OOO The nett receipts are now equivalent to an inter est on $300,000; we will therefore estimate it at that value, 300,000 We are offered for the right of passage per Rail Road, 100,000 Tue tolls will, by this means, be reduced to about SB,OOO, which is equal to - - 100.000 Our merchants receive in the shape of bridge tolls remitted by having their goods landed in Augusta, at least, - - - - - IS 000 We demand, besides this, a free and unobstruct ed passage for the upper Bridge (which set tles the quarrel between the upper and lower parts of the city, - $ We demand a cancellation, by purchase or oth erwise. of the charter of Henry Shultz and John McKinne, and a renewal of our charter by the Legislature of South Carolina, so that we may be freed from the annoyance of said parties, , $ We receive, in the settlement of these vexed questions, amounts which, by some, may be esti mated at very near, if not quite, the full value between the now named worth of the bridge and the amount of difference. We certainly cannot be very much the losers in the transac tion, and for the sake of peace, now and hereaf ter, we ought to be willing to give something. The minor details are easily settled; but it should not be settled by the City Council alone. They are the representatives of the people, it is true; but not in this matter. They only repre sent so much of the city as they own, and no more. The real estate holders are the parties to be consulted. Let them speak ; and let them, if they speak favorably, appoint, with the Council, such of their citizens as have interest in the matter, to conduct the negotiations. Let the citizens be called together and hear argom'eiit on the subject; and if the gentlemen from South Carolina feel authorized to grant the conditions heretofore named, and can give satis factory bond of their fulfillment —and, further, that the Depot of the South Carolina Rail Road shall be located below Washington street and North of Broad street. And, if our citizens are satisfied, let them say so in the same manner as they gave their voices for the Canal. In this manner, whatever may be the response, the matter will be disposed of by t hose only who have a right to settle it, as well as all other matters which are of i nterest to AUGUSTA. Cotton Bloom.—The Montgomery Ala., Atlas of the sth inst. says: We were shown on Tuesday a fine Option blossom taken from the plantation of Dr. B. IL Jones. I his compared with the growth of the plant in forward seasons, could not be considered early; but for this season it is very early, and, indeed, the earliest that we have heard of. This blossom was of the species denominated the ‘"California Cotton. Lot the Doctor take the medal. The flower had been plucked two or three days before it was shown to us. [Telegraphed for the Charleston Courier.) Baltimore, June 7. Cotton, the New-York market, on the 7tn inst. (SaturaVW') was unchanged. Twelve hun dred bales were sold. The sales of the week amount to nine thousand bales. - New-Orleans, June 5. Thirty-two hundred bates cotton were sold to day.

MOORE, (ffommmtal, §)i) JMapftic Cdcgrapfi. Reported for the Constitutionalist. Charleston, June 9, P. M.||| Cotton.— The market is quiet. Common quali ties are nominal; the better grades very full prices. Sales 450 bales at 61 to 91c. -j, Augusta Market, June 9, P. M. COTTON.—The market is quiet, the sales mo derate and prices unchanged. Middling Fair 81 ; Fair 9 to 91c. [Per steamer Asia.] Coleman and Stolterfoht's Report. Liverpool, May 23. — 1 t must be admitted that business has not improved, and it is probable that we may have to wait a little while longer for it; the derangement in the Cotton market acts for the mo ment prejudicially upon the manufacturing districts, whatever it may do in the end, it has had its share in the heavy decline in the value of Railroad pro perty, it holds forth the prospect of mercantile mis fortunes consequent upon the serious losses which are now occurring, and it places in the distanco a greater demand for money, and a higher rate of dis count. It certainly does appear strange that causes apparently so inadequate should produce such se rious, and it argues an exceeding great sensitiveness on the part of the public. The Manchester market is in as uncertain a po sition as our own; there is a disposition to do busi ness as soon as matters should appear settled, but the constant decline which has hitherto taken place has intimidated the buyers. There has been a good deal of business done in some descriptions of Goods, but at lowering prices; in Yarns the business was more circumscribed. Spinners reduce their pur chases to the utmost during the present unsettled state of the Cotton market, but their consumption is not reduced, though of looms there is an increas ing number standing idle. The stock of Cotton is very low, and that of Goods and of Yarns, consid ering the time of the year, is also very light. It is difficult to describe the exact position of our cotton market. So far from it having recovered any tone, it looks more demoralized than ever. The steamer’s advices showing a constantly increasing excess in the receipts, all further estimates of the extent of the crop are now given up, and it is as sumed that it will be comparatively large. The pressure to sell continues, and arises in many cases from pecuniary necessities; the regular importers have mostly withdrawn from the market. While this pressure exists no correct opinion can be formed of the future; it arises chiefly from local causes, which inspire some uneasiness. There are many monied men watching the market for investments, but speculators are disheartened by every purchase proving hitherto too dear. The trade have taken about to the extent of the weekly consumption ,and there has been some demand for export, chiefly for the better qualities. We must reduce our prices again by |d. per lb. in the qualities of American below fair, while those above maintain their value better. Brazil are heavy, and |d. per lb. lower ; they are out of proportion high to American Cot ton. Egyptains have declined to some extent.— Surats are very difficult to sell, and are irregular in price. HAVRE, May 22—Thursday evening.—Our Cotton market remains in a dull and unsettled state. Buyers are unwilling to operate: the general opin ion is that prices will go lower. New Orleans tres ordinarie is now quoted at 86, and Uplands 83 a 84, but the demand is confined to small lots for im mediate wants. The advices from New York to 10th instant, by the Pacific, came to hand yester day, In other articles nothing worthy of mention has occurred. Breadstuff's remain very low, the sea son being fine. No arrival from the United States sinco yesterday. SAVANNAH, June 7. Cotton. Operations continued nominal. Yesterday we heard of sales of but 33 bales, at Bc. SAVANNAH EXPORTS—JUNE 6.
