To tke shippers of Cotton in Ms eiiy .f Mobile:

 In this paper of December Slst, some writer pre- sented communication to you over the signature of "Slam" and in the Advertiser of the 10th utimo, another appears over that of "Louker on."

 D you tOiH read il, willlsay little to you in reply to both of these mmuuications.

 Mir. "Slam' and Mir. "Lnoke- on" argue that you have every thing in your power: admit n-bui should you not ask yourselves how you should uso il.

 1st. Mir. "Slam" argues upon general principles, cons deration. The first the compressins oi 400 900 bales of Cauon at 25 cents DOT bale, and no other charge, and and an estimate of the amount of moneys necessary to deray the current expenses of all the Presses running) and according 10 both he makes loss of $50 ,2O0 60 without rent. The second embraceda charge of IS sents per bale to you, ,iz: cents wharfage. 6 cents drayase and ee',s labor. making a total of $72,000 OO, and consequently profit of s2l 800, to be appropriated to rents He then adds the rent of Presses at sb0- 900 and warehouses at sl5,000, and figures . loss of s43 200.

 In the third he placed every thing at i,s ''nominal vaus. and figured if 500, ,0OO bales bs slorsd in the city and 400, 900 bales compressed, there could only be profit of S67 ,0C0. 'if the Presses harmo n.y." and if the crop fell short the compressiny was curiailed, the profits necessarily dimip'shsd iu proportion.

 without going into details, add $50, ,000 your es,i mute of the expenses ofall the Presses asd make the first loss l00 200 and you will have some- thing the correct figures to % upon of losses without rent. Your estimate of the entire rents of the city at S65 900 IS just about probable as you would lend Sl00 900 al per cent when you could get 10 per cent for it.

 Your grand "fna~" of figures should then be changed from $40 000, total for rents, 10 S1S5, 900. and from $l55 900, or total for current penses, tp &205 ,000, making actually sS9OO de- duct from this amount )our only correct sstimaie, rty aain ut hale shi charges al IS per bale, and planters storage at IS cents per bale, making $362, ,0O0 and there IS s loss of SIPS OOO, instead o profit of$67 ,OOO you estimated.

 So admitting that ihers a unity of interest amr ng the Presses, no money could be made at the present unless of the presses closed and hands and all surplus persons about them dis charged.

 Mir. "Looker on," your appnrtionment wont wer, for by the conflicting opinions of the friends of the different presses cannot be ,econcied and the conflicting interests of pressmen appeassd. Suppose press presses it's proportion and stores twice the amount, will another only receiving iis proportion of comp, easing be satisfied? Certny not! Justice il seems 10 me should have prompted you to appor- tion the storage.

 Let writers cnIlupon you they may. shippers to meet and frame tariff of charges for the adoption of prossmen and nsk you to pledge yourselves not 10 dray cotton out of the presses who adopt 't and will the evil be rsuledsd! Ccrtsiny not! Those propri- etors of presses who have exerted themselves 10 storage from the planters and factors, will with out doubt, accept Il; but those who have not, ssI nof MT. "Loeker on" anticipates this and tells you ''to shake fhsm c' and 'psf ihsm do~n' by draying cotton from their presses those that adopt your la riff.

 What will captains of vessels say to you in pa- king their freight engagements? Is not eonPressing at 2jc per bale great consider ation 10 hsm and if you take sand to sustain only the presses adopting your tariff of charges, may they take sfand and determine to sustain those working al z5c per bale If captains do this. they be determ ined, par riculary they lose directly by conioriHg ts your wishes. and you make nor lose nmhiag by iii

 Suppose that one of you had cotton press and adopied yoar charges. bst osna that In duns yssr ssrsss sus masiDnlsss sad sor sirAs, hrsa Msa ss- frsss Sle aaa ssassaM de8Esads wsrs buae aysB sos
