TENO THE PUBLIC.-fIavi"g, in c,nnextoa w'u

 Il the proprieors of the other Presses, signed d uniform tariff of charges cotton, in order 10 ply with the repeated solicitations of boh Factors and Shippers, to relieve them from the perpexity caused by many different raies, we deem il due to ourselves to assign reasons for so doing. The I ariff differs from the published by us in the early part of the season, in but of mn porlance, to wit: Planters Storage and Drayage from wharves to Press In relation Io the first item have adopted the rate unisersa, preferred by the Planters, while we were in the country last summer, and with which they expressed themselve s entirely satisfied. In relation To the second had only agreed 10 dray from our wharf at cents per bale an inducement to have cotton landed there. Had Planters complied rigidly with their proms. es to us as have with our promises to them there would have been no necessity for chanle Tn ths item. As, however, with few exceptions, they have quietly allowed their cotton landed up town in sequence of which we have been compelled To pay 12A and l5 cents per bale to have il drayed down, and cannot even now get It done al that, feel justified in consentng to the 10 ceuts drayage.

 We, however, had another and stronger motive in view. The sp-town whariingers for time past have been in the habit of payIng all the extra expenses incurred by boats cotton ordered to our wharves, but landed on theil $, in order get the wharfage of the balance of the cargo, ana compel to do all the long drayage.

 We place ourselves in position tp resist this ar engagement and deprive them of any lnducement to continue II, 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 notice to this effect. By this we keep our faith to the country, and show to the parties uptown what they may expect so long they play the grab game, and seek 10 deprive down town of it's fair share of business.

 We understand that we are accused of having gone into a combination by thIs arrangement. lp regard to the other Presses cannot ans swer-or purse Ives b,u. .s AnI If doubts the fact, let him give order the other Presses for Colton and he will soon ascertain whet- CT or not there exists combination.

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