COTTON 00006.—MANCHESTI4 MARCH o.—Meurs. Ellison
and Haywood, cotton brokers of Liverpool, have Issued their
circular for the present mouth, and in their review of the tr•de
daring February, estimate the imports Into the country at
226,864 bales : total exports light, being 64,287, against 91.587
for the same month last year. They estimate the quantity taken
for home consumption at 36,714 bales per week, and the actual
conAlimptit.ii at 40,000 per week against 49.000 In the previous
month, and 45,000 per week during the latter part of last )ear.
The receipts at the American ports up to Feb. 2.8, they give at
1,309.000, against 1,195,000 same date last year. Of the Man-
chester market they give what appears to be a very reliable ac-
count :—.• With the exception of a temporary Improvement at
the close of the first week, during which a comparatively good
business was done at low prices, and whereby producers were to
some extent relieved of stocks, the Manchester market
has been exceedingly dull and gloomy In tone through-
out the month ; and notwithstanding that the out-
turn of goods has been considerably reduced by the further
spread of the short-time movement, the tendency of stocks has
been to accumulate. The uncertainty in which the ultimate
extent of the American crop is Involved, and the discouraging
accounts and returns received from the principal foreign mar-
kets, have deterred buyers from operating to an extent
sufficiently large to take off the reduced production of spin-
ners and manufacturers. All departments of the trade, both
home and foreign, have been very slack; buyers fur the more
distant markets being especially cautious in their dealings.
Under these circumstances It is not surprising that the position
of pnitinters continues moat unsatisfactory. It has improved
slightly during the past week or no. owing to the rapid decline
in the twit* of cotton, but it is still very unrenumerative. slur
