COTTON 000Df4.

MANCHIOIER, FEB. 11.
The Liverpool market made another start yesterday, and
the sale' amounted to 17,0110 balm. The excitement cow
tinuee, and we have a report that 15,000 more have chan2.l
hands today, closing at an advance of at least 4d. ptr
on the rates of last Friday. On the cloth market here this
has had a damaging effect. For the last few days a few
sales had been making for various markets, but to-die
sellers have been constrained to ask prices which have .
tirely stopped business. lu yarns there has been a different
feeling, and very large business is reported, and vie,
are id., and in some cases d. per lb. dexter
than on Tuesday. The business -has been large for
all markets, except that of China. The Calcutta prop',
appear to be buying more than any other chug of shipier.,,
but considerable sales have also been made for fieha
generally, for the Mediterranean, Germany, and the
home trade. The market is reported to have beer. ex.
tremely buoyant, and many buyers have been taking all the
lots they could lay their heeds on up to Id. advance.
Prices close strong and are increasing in firmness, the clo,
iag of mills having been found to have told in giving hrrx..
nese to yarns, though it has not yet had the same effect
upon cloth. Everybody has been asking more for cloth to.
day, and sellers of 40duch India shirting' demand Ad. to
4ed. per piece more than on Tuesday, and though this ha,
stopped business so that there has been little or nothing
doing, yet an impression is growing among manufacturers
that before long prices will advance considerably ; it IA
necessity, in fact, they say, or they moat soon close their
mills altogether. Several large country manufacturers liave
been to Manchester this morning in consequence of the
movement in the Liverpool cotton market, simply to instruct
their &Route to withdraw all stocks held for sale on their
behalf from tle market. The price of middling Orison
cotton, which last February was 7fil. per lb., today is
quoted 12jd., making a rise during the year cif' 54d.,
whilst 81b. 4 oz. shirtings have only advanced from 9,. 44,1.
to 10a. 7irl. In some came sellereare asking 10a. 9d. today,
but there Ii difficulty is obtaining it. The advance upon
cloth at 10a. 70. is only lid. per lb. Yarns in the same
period have only advanced 24d, per lb.

Of 170N.—Lrezziroog, FIB. 14.—The market in the

last week's quotations for American. Brazil is more difficult
of sale at last week's rates, whilst Egyptian continues in
