The excitement produced at Bombay by the
accounts lately Kent out from the LiverpoLiverpoolcotton
market is described as follows in the circular of
Messrs. Volkart Brothers :
During the first weak after departure of last mail we had
• very brisk demand, caused by the favourable advice. re-
ceived on the 2rith ultimo, and although the telegraphic
news of Jan. 10 afterward. produced a quieter feeling, our
market continued firm, senors anticipating better advice!
from Liverpool by next stemma. Their expectations have
been fully realised by the DWI received yesterday • the
market is now in • perfect state of excitement, and the
natives scarcely deem to know how far to raise their de-
mands. For old cotton the inquiries have been confined to
Cornptahs ; other descriptions are in scanty supply, and of
very poor quality ; they uently attract little attention
from European houses, but as nativism shipping largely
purchases could not be effected urdessatan advance on our hat
quotations, and prices dose to-clay from Rs. sto Rs. 15
higher than a fortnight ago. The movements in new cotton
have been heavy at very full rates; up to Re. 155 was paid
for Broach and Its. 143 for Moller& before receipt of the
news of 18th ultimo ; since last night, however, mem have
advanced rapidly. The natives ask to-day fur Broach
Re. 159 to Its. 160, Dholleraßa. 155 to Its. 156, Porarawatid.
Its. 147 to Rs. 148, Banos Rs. 141 to Re. 142. Supplies of
new cotton are gradually increasing.
In forwarding this circular, however, Mr. J. F.
Turner, of Manchester, very properly remarks that
This Bombay mail replies to our brilliant cotton news of
18th January, when "middling" Orleans was 7 0-16 d. after
a Liverpool business which amounted for the week to
131,000 bales, at Id. &dream At that time the Liverpool
stock of all cottons was 500,000 bales, instead of 880,009
bales us it is to-day, and it will be remembered that an im-
preesi,4l at that time prevailed that political troubles in
Amer co might interfere very much with the shipmeuts and
growth of cotton.
