During the past week the market here has been quiet,
but firm. Holders have evinced entire indifference about
offering their cotton, and the sales have generally been at
ic advance on my last quotations, and this, notwithstanding
the expectation that the next steamer will advise us of a
rather severe decline in Liverpool. The stock in port is
put down by the New York prices current at 60,000 bales.
I think, at the outside, it cannot exceed 40,000. I esti-
mate the sales of the week at 5,000 hales, taken by our
domestic spinners, the Continent, and Great Britain. The
exports during the same time amount to 6,732 bales, viz. :
to Liverpool, 3,185 ; Havre, 491 ; Antwerp, 232 ; Bremen,
905 ; Hamburg, 180; St. Petersburg, 1,689 ; Amsterdam,
106. _ _ _

New Orleans, May 31.—Receipts for the week, 10.500
