Norfolk is blowing her horn. a .anorous bleat, which has been repoalst' by telograph all over the country, that on fone day. re.ently, seven ships left that port for foreign p.rts with aggre gate oargoes of l2.m,0 bales of coltton. Down here, in New Orl-ann . we would not consider this sulfficiently large to notile with any emphal els. Yesterday, four vesqels c.eared hence for foreign ports with cargoes amounting to 14,744 bales-one of these slit ps carrylng out only 1102 bales. We are glad to sen that Norfolk is im proving in the cotton tradeo but di liko to se. her crowing too much over it. and making 1i widious comparisons. We learn from one of our Wostern exchanges 'that the Hon. John Hogan, representing the UpDOr Mississlppi river interests, will present a memorial on the subject of improvement to Congress at an early day. The lmeiorial n.ks for. an appropriation of $2,0o.00,000, to be dis trlbuted in the following proportions: $s1501,on above the Des Momn a rapids : itlo.00o be ween the Des Molnes rapids and the mouth of the Illinole river; o$00,000 between the mouth of the Illinois river and Cairo, and $30(A0.o between Cairo and New Orleans. The eppropriation is to be expended in confilnng and deepening the channel between ihose points, and throwing out wing-dams and diking islands where neces sary. New York city wants the tanal tolls abolished and the canals made free. The canal cor mis sioner of the btate favors the idea. and so do.es the governor. The tolls fall far short of the eaost of keeping the canals in repair. and the country people object to taking of these tolls, slnce the totaloostof keeping up the repairs would then fall on the State treasury. The city wants the canals made free for the benefit of its commerce. and one of its papers makes this proposition: If the country people will relieve the city from the annual school tax, $2 of which goes to the State for every t1 apportioned to the city. it will agree to bear all the cost of maintaining the canals. It is stated that during the five year's prior to and including 1876 the amount paid by the oity for country schools, over and above the expenses for its own schools. has boen $544,000 to 0Wl,000 per annum-one-half of which would be sufficient to keep up tile Elieo Canal. There has been for some years a State law which exempted from charge for wharfage dues all vessels constructed entirely within the limits of this State. Under the prospective ad vantages and privileges granted by this law, the steamboat Mar. ha (a propellor) was built at Madisonville, of timber cut exclusively from :the forests of Louisiana, and the steamboat Isa bel, under the same circumstances, was built at Algiers. A day or two ago the Supreme Court decided that the State could not, by legislative enactment or otherwise. deprive the city, with Out compensation, of her right to i'i pose a rea sonable tax upon vessels arriving at her wharves. The decision is no doubt correct, and, we be lieve, is so regarded by our steamboat men gen erally. But it strikes us that in order to further stimulate some enterprise ('or which the State law was passed), and to reimburse the gentle men who built the boats, it would be well for our oity Administrators to pass an ordinance which would relieve them from loss, and at the sametime offer a premium to all such persons of energy and enterprise to con strlect vessels of all kinds and descriptions within the conlunes of the State of Louisiana. The Trade With Cuba. Inthe discussion which for somne weeks has been going on between the We tern and Eastern journals in regard to the proposed reduction of the duty on imported sugars, some of the latter- have sought, to convey the impression that, of the aggregate crop of Cuba, only a ,mall proportion is exported to this country. We have before us a copy of the Havana l'rice Current, which contains it report of the total shipments of sugar from the two great ports of the island. Havana and Matanzas, during the year 1877. From this we learn that of the 797,742 boxes, bags and hogsheads exported last year. -m,,245 came to the United S'ac'ee. The exports to France during that period eooted up only 1003 boxes, against 12,712 boxes and 282 hhds in 1587. This diminution is owing to the aotthat France. desiring to protect her beet sugar interests and at the same time to re taliateon Spain for imposing an almost pro pibitory duty upon imports of foreign produce into her province of Cuba, pl.,ced an unusually high duty upon the sugars of that island brought to that country. The fact is, the illib eral and suicidal policy of Spain will inevitably recoil upon herself. If the exoibitant and enormous rate of $5 0o f bbl is exacted from the importer on ever barrel of flour carried from America into the ports of Havana and Matanzas, and that, too, for the bonefit of flour brought from the mother country, why should not the government of the United States follow the ex ample of France. the intere.ts of which coun try are positively insignificant in comparison with ours-tax, in proportion, the sugars of Cuba, which are introduced here on a very small duty, in order to protect the sugar planters of this country? The Northern and Eastern refineries are opposing titles increase of duty; in fact, are moving heaven and earth to have it reduced, or entirely removed. They have a great money power to back them; but rwe have strong hopes that the efforts of our Southern and Western Congressmen, backed nu by the good sense and advice of the people as expressed by the public journals of those saetions since this subject was broached, will induce our national legislators to act prudently, wisely and well in this matter. To Louisiana this subject is one fraught with vital import aeOe to her people. The trade of New Orleans with Cuba has dwindled to insignificant proportions, which faotean be partially explained by what we have stated above. But there are minor and inci dental reasons for this declension of our trade. which we think should be made public. The Irm of Belcher & Co.. a most prominent and reputable refining house located in St. Louis. are the principal importers of Cuba sugars, by I way of New Orleans. We are informed that their agent In Havana is also the agent of a line I -f Liverpool steamers running to this city, t nsaturamlly. gives prefereaee, in the matter a .eights, to that line. These steamers In returning to Liverpool do not touch at Ha vana. This is considered a cause of complaint on the part of American steamship owners, who formerly had their ships in that trade. If they carry out cargoes to Cuba from this port, they have but little chance, the Liverpool line having the preference of getting a return freight which will pay them for the venture. Though they offer the same rates as their English rivals. a ndr the circumstances it is claimed that a line of steamers cannot run from this port to P.a vana and keep up a regular communicna'i.n ex copt at a gre t loss. This is a matter of great im portance to not only New Orleans, but to the great producing interests of the West. Storage of Grain In St. Louis. The St. Louis merchants have been agitating the rqllstion for some timo past as to whether the seller or the buyer of grain should pay the first ten days' storage. The Merchants' Ex change, on the 9th inst., answered the question by an overwhelming vote- 7,7 to 76-imposing the duty of payment on the buyer. The Ht. Louis Times, alluding to this decision, says: Of course the advocates of the new rull were enthusiastll, for from it, in conjunction with what will ,be clone by all commisnsion houses In uielformi reducelon of commission charges, and by all the elvators in one direction to a level of charge for storage with Chicago and Mil waukee, ensues the removal of all hl'berto ob le'tion t, this market by Ine,rior grain ship purs-and springs from all the accompanying changes a now anl more prosperous er, in the grain tr ade of our city. Our grain mnorchants have for sevetrl past years fully perceived the capacity of this cit.y for a greater grain market than it has b.ll, and have progre-sed in sev oral ways inl making It so, but the most offiletit "move by them hiar beon in obtaining the adoption of the rule reqluiring buyers to pay storage. and the consent of elevator companies to conforlm altly reduce their chllarges on storage, and from to-day, when the rule takes elTo.t, this market will stand, so far as charges aire involved fair an I square with all the leading markets of t ie West. -- *--~C --- FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

GENERAL REMARKS-This has been a rainy. disagreeable day; the streets and levee were in a disagreeably muddy condition, the latter almost impassable, and, consequently, the "wheels of commerce" were protty well blocked. The fact is, that business was wofully dull and unsatisfactory. Our cotton men, though usually their "voices are tamed on peace," are now much excited upon the subject of war, and the probability, or improbability, that Eng'and might be involved in such a catastrophe, has had a great .effect upon our cotton market. The morning cable news game tone and color to this feeling. The decline in Liverpool of 1-16d, and in New York of S to to points in futures, though not bringing down prices here, caused a restricted demand, and only 4000 bales were sold. Business in provisions to-day, owing to the inclemency of the weather and other obvious reasons, has been emphatically dull and unsat isfactory. There was some demand for mess, but at lower prices than holders are disposed to ae ept. The supply is fair. There has been- bat very little demand for flour, and the ma rket can be reported as steady ,t and unohanaed., D The demannd for choice grades of sugar con y tinues goo'. and at firm prices.

Louis Republican, January 10: COURITESIEH EX(HAN(IED. On 'Change yesterday there was one of those little Ppisedes which frequently occur, Prominent merchant to wealthy retired boat man, earnestly: "Hal I've just seen a man from New Orleans, and he tells me such things about our boats that we're ruined. I tell y.,u. rulneod." Wealthy retired boatman, warmly: "It's your fault. and the fault of other merchants, Do you want to know how it is ? I'll tell you. If an old tub comes here and offers to take freight a little cheaper, you'll load her and let our own boats go to the devil." The merchant did as he has often done bo f re-walked silently away. BULK AND PACKAGE FREIGHT TO NEW ORL.EAN. No bulk grain delivered by the elevators to river craft on the 8th or 9th On the 5th the My Choice barges received 1,780 bbls of flour; on the 7th the John Means barges received U458 sacks of corn and c:s seecks of bran. This is noteworthy and furnishes another argument to boat owners to show why New Orleans steam boats are not reliable in time and frequency of departure, etc. Now, these shipments, if placed on the steamer loading at the time, would have enabled her to back out one or two days sooner than she did. But no; the elevator men are getting into the habit, more and more, of shipping package freight on barges at the same rate as steambon's ask, and barge owners, not content with :30( or 4000 tons of grain in a tow, are desiring more and more to got posses sion of package freights. The serious ques tion may be addressed to the St. Louis and New Orleans boat owners, "What are you going to do to be saved ?" Down at Orleans they call Capt. B. R. Pegram "Capt. B. Rush P,'gram." Memphis Avalanche, January 11: The Charles Morgan has ninety people on hoard. inclulding six bridal couples, on her present p ssage down the river. Among them are John D. rteep and wife (formerly Miss Clara B. Vail. of Indianapolis, Ind.) Her cargo is heavy and al taken in the Ohio. M. V T. bares No. 22, loaded at the elevator with 5eo( sacks oil cake, will go south to-day in tow of the My Cholce. Iargo No. lo has 5380 sacks cake and will go south in tow of the Port Eads. The Grand Tower came up last night with 50 ba'es of cotton and 2(1 pkgs sundries. She proceeds to St. Louis this evening. Her pilots report. abig snag drifted down and fast directly in the channel at the foot of Moon's towhead. The towboat My Choice, with five barges, con taining 6000 tons, including a barge load of ship timber from Metropolis, Ill., of 30,000 feet, arrived here in a crippled condition early yes terday morning, having left her tow at Fulton. 60o ml es up the river. The part disabled was a pitman strap, and it was repaired here without difficulty. The My Choice was to return to tFulton last night after her tow. She will add a barge loaded with oil cake at this port. Fine dentistry executed by Dr. J. R. Walker, 180 Dolord street. Don't fail to go to M. L. Byrne & Co.'s.
