COTTON GOOTA.-31.sseuerrint, Nov. 7.—There is very little
Lushest, doing to-day, and no change in piece. A review of the
wet k leads to the asaumption that, though the market has been
quiet, and sellers have sot been able to get an advance either in
cloth or yarn equivalent to the increased price of cotton, there has
bees a not in, onmsd•Table amount of busmen, This may be in-
ferred from the fact that, although thine is stall a large produc-
t', m coming forward from the mills, there is ant mach complaint
of accumulating stacks. The movement for lemming production
is still confinedto individual firms. The number of these is not

to command adequate or paring priors for yarn and cloth.
Various reasons are airigned for the continuance of so many mills
on full time, when not only our own but foreign marketeare over-
supplied with cotton goods. Some say that =Wormers
are not willing to turn their operatives idle in the
preview e of an election, and other. that they are afraid to
roust to a stoppage or seen short time, unless the movement
were general, because they would be liable to have their be-4
workmen engaged by time* who should remain at full work. No
doubt these and a variety of other motivm obtain. The stoppage
or partial doppeo of • mill implies in all cams a certain and
very ormaiderrible lam in Interest on capital, or in rent, besides
other fixed which remain much the same whether the
mill is at work or idle. Then there an' many manufacturer•
who have had large advances from merchants and conuniadon
sputa, which cripple their independence in such miters. The
result la that oilmers and manufacturer* tind it maim to bear
rusaiderable less on production than to bravo Upon other risks,
and are going cgs' in the hope that things may mend, though they
see no prospect of it in the immediate future. There is an ex-
pectation, however, that production will be much lessened after
the general election. The business of the week has been certainly
mush nearer the cupply, and the sellers have been unable to get
the prices they demanded, and quotations am little hanged from
last week.
