--The receipts of cotton at New Orleans and Mobile were rather heavier last week, those at Mobile showing an increase of five thousand bales over the preceding week.
The total stock in Southern ports is estimated to-day at three hundred thousand bales. The stock at this port is only eleven thousand two hundred and fifty bales, and the whole of it is now going on shipboard for Liverpool.

--On Christmas day, a man named Stage, a German soldier, threw himself across the track of the New York Central railroad, near the elevator, as an engine was backing down with some cars, but one of the employees saw him and pulled him off the track.
He then went to the basin and jumped head first against the ice, but he failed to break it; and information being given to an officer, he was arrested and taken to the third precinct station-house.
Here, while standing at the desk, he saw a jack-knife, which had been taken from a prisoner.
He seized it and tried to stab himself, but an officer took the knife from him and his hands were shackled.
He was sent to jail.--Albany Argus.
