and the transactions since our last report are warmly worth
enumerating; prices, however, are tolerably wen supported
with so fiat a market. Refiners' produce c3atinues out of

COTTON.—LivgarooL, Jag. 17.—The put bas been a
week of singular inactivity : in the latter part of December
the trade bought freely, and circumstances have since in.
dined them rather to use what supply remained in the it
hands than to increase their ruck. During all the present
week they have bought very sparingly, the total sales not
having exceeded 21,000 bales. This policy the trade have
been induced to adopt u well by the relative high value
which cotton has attained, is by an uncertainty attendant
upon the restrictive policy of the Bank of England. The
estimates of supply have not materially changed ; and for
some time to come the imports will be small. To-day the
sales are only 4,000 baler, all to the trade, and generally at
the reduced prices of the week. American descriptions are
freely offered, and being only in very limited request, they
have declined fr •rn an ed. to ld. per lb., the authorised
quotation for fair qualities of Orleans and Mobile beinu
reduced Id. per lb , and that of fair Upland. Id. per lb. At
the last quotation Uplands cannot be purchased to-day.
Brazils and Egyptians have partaken of thegeneral &dans.
and they too have declined id. per lb. Bunts are freely
offered, and a decline of ed. der lb. has partially been sub-
mitted to. 120 bales of American, 80 Egypian, and 1.740 of
Surat have been taken on speculation, and 160 of American,
20 Panama, 20 Egyptian, and 280 Surat for export.
