13,000,000 in 1853-4, 3,360,000 in 1852-3, and 3,100,000
in 1851-2.

The export to great Britain is stated at 1,921,000 bale

which is scarcely a fair comparison with the amount 1,549.716
bales exported during last season, several cargoes cleared for
British outports, but landed in other countries, being this year,
for the first time deducted. The proper comparison with the
figures given for last season would be 1,950,000 bales ; here.
after the deductions will be made, and the 1,921,000 bales will
be the correct comparison for the future.

The consumption the past season its the United States has
been 653,000 bales, against 594,000 bales last year. The
trade is in a good condition, and an increase during the coming

quite expected

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 13.—Receipts for the week, 11,800
bales, same week last year, 33,000. Stock on band, 21, 000 ;
prices maintained. Middling., 114 c per lb. 16th.—Market
unchanged. Sales to day 1,000 bales.

MOBILE, Sept. l 3.—Receipts for the week, 2,400 bales ;
;ame week last year, 2,300. Middling, lOic per lb.
Crop.—The accounts from the South in relation to crop
,rospects, tend to confirm the idea that in the Atlantic States it

will be less than last season, while from the Southern and
Southwestern section the reports are contradictory. The posi-
tion at this time is somewhat critical, for under a favourable
continuance of suitable weather, and a late frost, the crop
cannot well be estimated at over .3,300,000, while an early
fros

may cut it off materially, and the yield prove less than
3,000,000 bales. It is universally admitted that an early frost
this year will prove very disastrous, its position being now
more susceptible in this regard than for several years past.
The following is a statement of the movement in cotton
since the lst September last, as compared with the previous
three years :

Stock on hand

NEW ORLEANS : Receipts for the week ending Septem-
ber 5, 5,741 bales. Export to Liverpool, 103. Cam-
peachy, 6. Vera Cruz, 75. Crottenburg, 1,232. The year
closed with a stock unsold not exceeding 2,500 bales, a
considerable portion being low cotton of the old crop.
Since then the new crop has continued to arrive very sparingly,
compared with the same period last season, and most of the
receipts have been taken readily as fast as sampled at very full
prices generally. The total sales amount to 3,500 bales, the
bulk for France, the Continent, and the north. In prices
great irregularity has prevailed, but our quotations approximate
to correctness, and apply exclusively to new crop, the receipts
of which, we are pleased to notice, are showing a marked
improvement in quality under the favourable weather which
has prevailed since the storm. The business, yesterday, was
at outside figures, and in some instances above them. Freight
to Liverpool, 7-16 d.
MOBILE : Receipts for the week ending Sept. 5, 798 bales.
No foreign export. The sales this week are ❑ot as large as the
receipts, amounting to only 600 bales. The demand has been
mainly for grades above middling, for which our quotations
are slightly raised. The very limited stock on sale and
general demand prevented the Persia's news from having any
influence, and we close with a steady and firm market at the
annexed figures. Freight to Liverpool, 110(11.
SAVANA : Receipts from Sept. 1 to Sept. 11, 2,133 bales. No
foreign export. New cotton begins to arrive freely,and the market
is beginning to open with animation, though sales are yet small.
Merchants are preparing for a heavy business season, and our
cotton mart is being considerably extended and improved,
which will contribute to the demands of an increased trade.
Total sales for the week, 768 bales. Freight to Liverpool,
nom.

CHARLESTON : Receipts for the week ending September
11, 734 bales Up. and 27 S. I. No foreign export. There
has been a decided improVement in the demand this
week, and a much larger business than we report would have
been done but for the very limited supply on sale. The trans-
actions have been confined almost exclusively to new cotton,
as the stock of old is exhausted, and show a rather higher
range of figures than those previously reported. We cannot,
however, yet give quotations, but good middling to middling
fair grades are worth 111 c to 12c per lb. Freight to Liver-
pool, nom. WILLIAM P. WRIGHT.
