COTTON.—The Atlantic's-adviees, of the 13th ult, tieing of
a favourable tenor, caused an advance of ic., but subsequently
with rumours of a rise in •some of the interior streams,of Ala-
bama. and Louisiana, the - buoyancy had been lost- The
accounts from the South were of a conflicting nature;. the
reports of a rise in the- rivers seemed to have gained credence
with the majority, and the market closed rather heavily in
consequence. Yesterday the market closed steadily with sales
estimated at 2,500 baks., From Messrs. Talcott's circular,.
June 19th, we extract the -following :--" We do not-attach
much importance to the reported rise in the rivers, believing
that it will be temporary, and, consequently, add but little to-
the receipts at the ports, Annexed, from reliable sources;
will be found the latest information by telegraph on this sub-
ject. Although the estimates of probable receipts at: the
ports, advised, of 27 to 2;750,000 bales are not increased, the'
favourable accounts of the growing crop and the partialrise-
in the rivers, alluded to, have weakened confidence, and nego-
tia.tions, consequently are more difficult to effect. Holders, at-
the 'decline noticed, show no anxiety to sell, believing that
they will have a more fa,vourable- opportunity to realise on
receipt of the large advances anticipated within the- next
