I THNO THE PUBisi sif.. sAiidvinRs ih c-inexioH ~ih | -A the pfopret1rs Of lse other Presses, signed uniform tAfif of charges pm cottod, in orer to com ply with the repeated solicitations of bo'h Factors and Shippers 10 relieve lhem from the perpexits caused by many difiertnt rates, we deem Il due 10 ourselves to assign reasons for so doing. The arif differs from the published by in the early part of the seasOn in but items of poriance, to wit: Planies' Storage and Drayage from our wharves 10 Press. In relation the first item we have adopted ihe rate universally preferred by the Planters, while we were in the country last summer, and with which they expressed themselves entirely satisfied. In relation to the second had only agreed 10 dray from wharf al cents per bale as an inducement to have cotton landed there Had Planters complied as rgidly with their promis- es to have wiih our promises 10 them, there would have been necessity for change thIs item. As, however, with few exceptions, they have quietly allowed their cotton landed np town, in sequence of which we have been compelled to pay l24 and l5 cents per bale to have it drayed down, and even now get done at that feel justified in consenting to the 10 cents drayage.

 We, however, had another and stronger motive in view. The sp-town wharfngers for time past have been in the habit of paying all the extra expenses incurred by boats cotton ordered to our wharyes, bui landed thei's, in order to get the wharfage of the balance of the cargo, and compel us to do all the long drayage.

 We place ourselves in position to resist this ar rangenlent and deprive them of any Inducement to continue t, we consented to put up drayage, know ing that the aggregate charge could be made the to the planter, by taking off the wharfage, with which the other presses had nothing do, and in days paper will be found this effect By this we keep faith to the country, and show to the parties up what they may expect long as they play thu grab game, and seek to deprive down tewn of it's fair share of business.

 We understand that are accused of having gone into a combination by thls arrangement. In regard to the other Presses cannot wer-for ourselves we have only to say it is not true. And If any one doubts the fact, let him give uer on Inc other Presses for Coiton and he will soon ascertain wheth- not there exists a combination.

 We have no fear that course vii be censured by any intelligent or liberal minded merchant or planter. GREEN, CASEY & JAMES,
