]LRCM le.—The market

during the last day or two seems to have become a little firmer
again. Some increase of demand has shown Itself, and the
greater activity in the cotton market has also had a beneficial
effect on the prevalent feeling. Transactions in all departments
continue on a very restricted scale, but the improvement has
gone tar enough to strengthen the prices of those articles which
were previously declining, and in other cases there Is a disposi-
tion to hold lout for a slight advance. A private telegram is
stated to have been received from Calcutta dated k'ebrotry
announcing that the market for imports Is not lower. Today
the increase of activity has born more particularly apparent on
the part of the German houses.
