Cotton. We very much fear that, t'le cotton murket s 10 continue 111 inteprcsscl Male tor some j noiltlis to conic, if not during the entire mile ] if the past crop. There is very little of the ; irtiele coming in, aid what it now offered is | elling at SJ to U ets. The liultie is in, uml re- | lorts a furtlicr decline of from one fourth to me half a cent, in Liverpool. About >ales had been sold subsequent to the sailing if the previous steamer, and before the leavimr if the Baltic. Our impression is that planters md better sell, but we cannot ail vise them, for eally we have no data on which to predi:ute a reliable opinion. Col, Orr, Speaker. Since writing our editorial on this subject j ii t hid week's issue wo have received the I :n?lif\ iiifr intelligence from Wn.-liington (if the lection of Col. Orr, to the spenkorship. lie . us the nominee of the caucus us wi predicted, lid was elected oil the first ballot, receiving 28 votes. Ten years ago we predicted for ;ol. Orr, ft bright political future?we then niil that he would yet lie President <>f the Juited States, and we still believe it. Col. Orr. i a bold, fearless, independent politician, not fraid to express nn opinion under tiny and all ircunistances, no matter whether he i9 in the nidst of his political friends or opponents. Tins trait in his character we always did admire. Ve had rather trust such a man. if he is ri'jht uly half of the time, than to depend on one vlio is atiCiii/? right, and who is afraid to ex j ress his opinions, for fenr they may injure j ntn politically. We rejoice Hint the speaker's hair is filled by such a man. mid that this inn is our neighbour an<l friend. Congress?tbe Speakership. The present session of our National Lcgislaure is decidedly Democratic as it relates to ioth Houses, and unless an issue is gotten up n regard to Kansas, we may confidently look or a harmonious session. There ought to be o split in the Democratic part}', for it is, in act, the only party in the Uuioti which has iiy basis whatever?the only party which lias he beginning of a claim to consistency. In icgurd to the speakership, we do hope /ol. Urr may receive the nomination, for if ince nominated he will certainly be elected. ii relation to his nomination, wo think it is ertain, provided his colleagues will consent to ;o into llio caucus. And why should they not ousent? It is too lato io the dny to discuss he propriety of caucuses, for it is the way noli tilings are done now a days, here us well is elsewhere?I hey have become a fixed fact, ire engrafted .upon us, and have become a iart and parcel of our system. Our delegaion should not stand aloof, for the simple roaou that they will most assuredly support the onimee 01 vne parly, no matter who lie may ie; if lie be only orthodox in the Democratic lith. The Black Republicans will ha/o thoi sodidate. who will be regularly nominated, nd the Democrat* will also have their*, and f the delegation from this State vote at all, he}* will support one or the other uuquestioubly, and why not, we repeat, go into the cniuus aild exert a s Jutary influence in controlling lie nomination. In this State, in all our public assembly*, the ffieert are Dominated by caucusses in a inuoh inM nf * ,.v.v vu^wiiuubuia lurin man at ?y asniiiglcin.

' ' ... '.-Ay ... V. ' 'V The Banks. In our opinion some) limir ought to be don o by our Legislature now in Srtwiuii. to rebuke the octiou of those Iiauks in tlio ijtute, which | (i liave so glaringly violated tlic laws govern ing i tl them, by suspending specie payments. What j li that something is we cannot say, but there j u is one thing we do say. and that is if we have a laws they ought to be observed. But we are j c< told that tire Banks were compelled to suypend. ti What occasioned this necessity, we at>k t It c< was speculation and nothing else. Tliev had ri over issued, overtraded?had plunged head | r< long iuto debt by issuing bills which they j b knew they could Dot redeem, and wlieu called t\ upon to redeem their outstanding paper they deliberately tie up their pluses, hermetically I] seal up their vaults, and refuse to disgorge a i u solitary dollar, and thug bid defiance to Jaw, j t< justice or even common honesty. Wo repeat, u such conduct ought to he punished in some i g way in order to teach them u salutary le?>on * h in future. We unhesitut.ngly affirm that the 0 Banks can control the price of cotton for a ; i| time at least, if not permanently, and whether ' o they have iutentioiially produced this effect by j ,j their recent si sponsions is a question which we j u are not going to discuss. j tl ^ $ & j Now York Politics. Thelafe State elections in N?-w Vork proves j J what wo alwuys have believed, that tlie State j is Democratic out ami out. It i> trti<> that in ! the canvass of lSuo for President the State gave | n majority for that Prince of all Hum hugs, j John C.

Th<> result of all ^ this is that in the State elections which are j just ovc-r, the Democrats have a el-ar majority , of from seventeen to nineteen thousand, ma j " king a change in less than two yea'-s, of nearly j one hundred thousand votes.
