COTTON.—LiveiwooL, Nov. 13.—Cotton was in good
demand at the commencement of the week, but since
Tuesday the business bas been comparatively limited, and
the market closes with some decline from the quotations
of last Thursday. For Sea Island an unusually active de.
mend has prevailed, and the choice being materially di-
minished. prices have advanced fully Id. per lb. Americui
continues in fair rained, but has declined about ;,d. in the
common and Ad. to id. in the better grades. New York
advicea to the 13th instant quote middling American isi
cents, coating to sell in Liverpool 84d. per sailing vessel,
Sea. per steamer. In Brazil a moderate amount of
business has been done, at easier rates. Egyptian
is in improved demand, but the recently landed
cotton is freely offered at rather lower prices.
East India has been freely offered, particularly
the better qualities, and pieta have receded
in many instances Ad. to id. per lb. Bengal,
though in good demand, is partially Ad. per lb. lower.
Speculators have taken during tho week 2,240 bales • ex-
porters, 9,390 bales; and the trade, 48,540 bales. We have
bad only a moderate demand again to-day, the market re-
maining dull, but prices generally are unchanged. The
sales are 8,000 bales, of which 1,500 are for export and spe-
culation. The following are the official quotations

COTTON GOODS.—MANCHESTEIt, NOV. 16. The
market has been fully as languid today as on Tuesday,
and the tone of feeling is one of feebleness sad divatisfac.
tion. In shipping yarns sellers have exwi. awed much
difficulty in making sales, and such as have made
show much irregularity as regards price. The demand has
been limited for all markets. Spinners of favourite yarns
from good cotton are well under contracts placed some
time back, and this class of yarns hardly betrays so muck
weakness as commoner descnptions. For the home trade
yarns have also been quiet, with very little business offer.
I mg. Spinners have been willing in many instances to
accept rather over id. per lb. decline as compared with
Tuesday, but even this concession fails to tempt buyer.
The cloth market has continued in a very depressed state
since Tuesday, and prices are decidetUy lower. Many
manufacturers are running out of contract, so that the
competition for business is keener, but the business
effected to-day has been sinalL Sellers of shirting, have
in some instance, been willing to accept a decline of 3d,
per piece. There is • very gloomy and uneasy feeling in
the market, especially among commercial firms connected
with the India trade. This feeling is rather of • vague
character, and arises more from fear caused by a know.
ledge that the losses there have been, like those here, very
considerable through the great depreciation going on in
cotton goods for many months past, than from any psi.

HU !BON'S BAY COMPANY. —The report of the
governor and committee to the shareholder previous
to the general meeting, on the 19th inst., has been
issued. It states that the returns of the year promise
to be satisfactory, so far as the quantity of furs is concerned,
although a partial falling off has taken place in martens.
and although a large portion of the returns
from Mackenzie's River has not been forwarded. As is
generally the case where one species of fur is deficient
another is more abundant than usual. The ships which
sailed for Hudson's Bay in June last have returned in
safety, having delivered their cargoes, outward and home-
ward, in good order. The attempt made by the committee
to re•open the trade with the Esquimau', north of
Churchill, and to profit in some degree by the whale
fishing, has not been successful. The present condition
of commercial affairs in the City has not been favourable
for the sale of the property in Fenchurch-street, on such
terms as the committee are prepared to accept. The de.
pression in Vancouver's Island and British Columbia still
continues, and the unsettled state of the question of the
capital of the united colony has a tendency to augment it.
The committee believe, however, that they have placed
their business, there on a sounder footing, and will continue
to take measures for reducing the expenses incurred on the
West Coast of America, so far as is compatible with
maintaining the commercial position of the company.
The accidental discovery of a new " digging," and the
influx of population, or an increase in the trade of the
coast consequent on the occupation of Russian America by
the United States, may at any moment create a demand
for goods far exceeding that which existed previously, and
largely augment the profits of those merchants who are
prepared to meet the new call. In Rupert's Lind itself, ac-
cording to information received from more than one
quarter, symptoms of a disposition to settle arelvisible, and
this feet makes the committee the more anxious for a
speedy conclusion of the questions pending between the
company and her Majesty's government. At this time,
however, they are without any information on this sub-
ject beyond that which has already been communicated
to the shareholders. The commission on the claims of the
company against the United States of America he we be-
lieve, at the present moment in session at Washington.
Although the rates at which the furs were sold ie the
autumn were somewhat lower than those obtained in the
Bring, yet looking to the returns on hand, the governor
and committee think themselves justified in recommending
that the usual interim dividend of Bs. per share should be
paid in January.
[Advertisement.] HoLLownY's PILLS. —The
changes of temperature and weather prevalent In autumn Ire.
quaintly upset persons who ere most cautious of their health and
most minicular of their Wets. These corrective, purifying, and
gently aperient pills are the best remedies for ell defective
actions of the digestive organs ; they augment the appetite,
strengthen the stomach, correct biliousness, and carry off all
that is noxious from the system. Holloway's pills see composed
of rare balsams, " unmixed with baser mustier,' and on that
account are particularly well adapted for the young, delicate,
and aged. As this peerless medicine has gained Lune In the past,
so will It preserve It In the future. by its renovating and Invigo-
rating qualities, and its incapability of doing harm.
