 General Renagks.-This has been one of the most dull weeks we have ex- perieneed this year, notwithstanding the weather has been dry, moderately warm, and generally favorable for busi- ness. The Levee in front of the city and faubourgs, comparatively speaking, looks, desolate: the whole of the ship ping steam boats, fiat boats, &c. in port, could easily be moered in the space of few hundred yards. The Mississippi has fallen during the last seven days, ending yesterday at noony i5 inches, and is now lla feet below high water mark, being precisely the same as this time last year. Our city, since the summer and autumn of 1916 was never known to be more healthy at this time of the year. We have understood that there is now several cases of high fe- yer, which may be expected more or less among the unacclimated laborers engaged in the many buildings erecting in every part of the city and environs.

 Coyon.-The sales since our last up to yesterday morning, consisted of three small lots, let, say 554i and and t5S6 bales, at 5a cents, making together 667 bales, chang ing owners at a slight reduction on form CT rsales. We have understood that the inquiry during the week has been bet ter, than the week previous. Yester- day we know such was the case. As yet we arc not in receipt of any of the new crsp.

 Sugar of this State is plenty, consid- ering the small demand, and has not varied in value for some time past. he forthcoming crop is said to promise iaif,. still tho prospects are held in suspense
