COTTON.—Lnitaroot., Ocr. 25.—The cotton market
was active on Friday and Saturday, when the sales were
large at advancing rates. On Monday prices opened with
increased fit nines', and the business promised to be very
extensive, but was checked in the course of the day by the
suspension of the Royal Bank ; the depressing influence
continued on Tuesday, particularly in the earlier part of
the day, when a decline was submitted to in some quarters
of about Id. per lb. On Wednesday renewed confidence
appeared, and the sales have Gino, been very considerable,

COTTON' GOODS. MANCirraTIM. Oct. 2s. The
market for shipping yams has been a good deal excited to-
day owing to the recent movement in cotton at Liverpool,
and partly owing to the higher rates consequently de.
mended here by spinners. To a certain extent this ad.
rime of prices has been responded to by purchasen, but
they give it unwillingly, and in many cases it has had a
tendency to check operations. This branch of the market
closes rtroeg, with an upward tendency. In home-trade
yarns there has been considerable activity to-day, and
after the large business done on the previous day by
manufacturers requiring these yarns an advance of about
fd. per lb. is demanded. In cloth the market has been
stead y since Teasley, and some additional strength has
been imparted by the large business transacted in cotton
at Liverpool, but the amount of purchases in manufactured
goods has not begs on ouch a large scale es during last
week. To-day we have had a general advance in quota-
tions by sellers, end buyers, compelled to operate, hare
been obliged more or less to comply with the wishes of
manufacturers in this respect. On the whole a fair
amount of business has been done at rather higher rates,
but the prices quoted by sellers are, to a great extent, only
