No cotton to be shipped

--The New Orleans Della publishes a card signed by every cotton factor of that city, recommending the planters not to ship a bale of cotton to New Orleans until the blockade is fully and entirely abandoned. The gentlemen who sign this card are all men of their word, who mean precisely what they say, and who control the trade of one-half the cotton product of the United States. Their recommendation will be carried out by the planters to a man.
