THE NORTHERN TIMES, MONDAY, FEBRITA.R 2i,

in all the markets of the south. The decline, however,
has been less than might have been expected, in view of
the heavy receipts at the ports—as advised by mail, and
given in detail in the tables to-day, as well as by tele-
graph for a week later and the large stock everywhere
on hand. In this, market the sales have been confined to
the requirements •of spinners and do not exceed 3,000
bales, closing at a decline of ac. per lb. The clearances
have been, for Hamburgh 730 bales, Naples 430,
Gibraltar 29 ; total 1,189 bales. Cotton in transitu has
been dull of sale, bnt not forced, and prices may be quoted
lc below the currency a week ago. The sales, which
amount to 1,200 bales include barely middling Apala-
chicola at loc, and Low Middling 101 c, with freight *d
per:lb. Southern markets by mail show no change inliobile
and New Orleans, except on the low dusty cotton, which is
very abundant, and slightly lower. . At Savannah and
Charleston the business was checked after the receipt of
advices per Arabia, and sales ,were made at a partial
decline of lc on the lower grades. By telegraph, for a
week later, we learn that the advices per Arabia caused
a decline of lc in Mobile and New Orleans, with only a
limited quantity sold. By telegraph the .following has
been received :-- .

NEW ORLEANS., February s.—Receipts for the week,
74,000 bales (net). Sales for the week, 28,000, market
weak. Middling, 1 Vic per lb. Export for the week,
42,000 bales, of which 12,000 are for Great Britain, and
409 for.Havre. Total export from this port to date,
814,000 bales. Stock on hand, 500,000 bales-. Freight
to Liverpool, 15-32 d to per lb. P.M.—Sales to-day
3,000 bales, at easier, but not quotably lower prices.
MOBILE, Feb. 4.—Receipts for the week, 29,000 bales.
Sales to-day, 1,000, and for the week 18,500. Middlinb
11c per lb. Export for the week to, Great Britain,
13,000 bales. Stock on hand, 201,000 bales. Exchange'
on London, 108 per cent. Freight to Liverpool, 7-16 d
per lb. sth.—Sales to-day, 6,000 bales. Market easy.
.Cao•P : The continuous large receipts at the ports re-
ported by mail and for a week later by telegraph, causes-
a more general belief in a crop of 3,700,000 bales; but, as
we have before remarked, the question of crop is now lost
sight of in the more interesting one of price. Consider-
ing the heavy receipts and stocks, and the small business
done for English account in all the southern markets, the
maintenance of our present currency is a matter of sur-

prise, and is only accounted for VI the-easy manner iu

;vhiehmonied.faCilities are attained in the south

Receipts at the ports during the week under review are
134;000 bales-. The excess as compared with last year is

increased to 989,000, and as.compared with
.1356, to

485,000 bales. It was confidently expected this would
prove the Anaximurn excess of the season, but we are
advised by telegraph of heavy receipts_ at,New Orleans,

which,wah those already known at Mobile, Texas, &c.,
is likely to give us a total for our next week's tables of
150,090 against 124,000 bales during the corresponding

week of la-st year, and thereby increasing the excess Co
over a million of bales. The reports from the South
that the increased facilities for hurrying the crop to
market, and the inducements, to do so, have been
unusually great ever since the season opened ; that while
there is _cotton to come it will come freely, and that when
a falling off does occur it will be sudden and rapid, are

entitled to consideration, as they account in some degree
for the large delivery,already made of the present crop.
Exports for the week amount to 82,000 bales, of which
Great Britain gets 60,000 bales, France 5,000 bales, and
other, foreign ports 17,000 bales. Next week the quantity

to Great Ifrittiin will be moderate, as we learn by tele-
graph that but 25,000 bales were cleared at Mobile and
New, Orleans for the week ending on 4th inst. The
vessels drawing 17 feet of water are meeting with some
delay at New Orleans, owing to an obstruction on the
bar. This may keep a large amount of cotton from getting
to sea.

cottoit since the Ist September last as compared with the
previous four years :---

Messrs. Neill Brothers. in . their circular say :
NEW YORK MARKET.—Business in this market has
been kept on the lowest scale during the past week, owing
to the absence of later news from Europe. The Arabia's
news. was • received here on the 28th ultimo, and we arc
since without anything later. The decline then reported
at Liverpool, together with the pblitical ferment on the
'Continent, at once checked business here, and buyers
have since been generally unwilling to operate until -
something definite is known as to the result of the
impendiniv hostilities. Our last report- closed upon a
dull market at 12c. for middling uplands, and there has
since been' some irregularity. The week's saleS reach
about 5,000 bales, chiefly to the home trade,'the market
closing quietly last night at 111 c. for middling uplands.
Southern Markets : By mail we are advised of an active
week in the leadinc, Southern markets. At New Orleans
buyers had operated pretty freely at former prices, and at
Mobile an active business was also done up to receipt
of the Arabia's news, after which the market became
quieter, and holders yielded slightly to encourage opera-
tions. By telegraph we learn that the markets have
since been rather unsettled, owing chiefly to the unfavour-
able political news from Europe by the Arabia, while the
continuation of heavy 'receipts at the ports has probably
also had some influence. At New Orleans the demand
was suddenly checked, and business has been limited
throughout the week, buyers waiting for later news
before renewing their operations: The sales only amount
to 24,000 bales against 67,000 in the week 'previous,
while the receipts for the same time amount to 73,000
bales. Prices have yielded about -1-c., middling being
now quoted 11 wc. The decline has been greatest for the
lower qualities, owing to their great abundance ; while
the better grades are held with much firmness, as they
are now becoming. less plentiful, and are already difficult
to buy without a portion of low dusty cottons. At Mobile
there has been a In-Aerate liminess done—that market
possessing decided advantages over New Orleans, both in
price and quality. 'The stock at that'. point is now
100,000 bales, of which only 31,000 is on the market.
The Charleston and Savannah markets have been irregu- •
lar, and prices have fallen about lc. at each point, ren-
dering quotations quite nominal. Sterling exchange and
freights to Liverpool are without materiafehaiwe.
BREADSTUFFS : The market for State and. Western
Flour shows much steadiness on the part of holders, and
prices are generally sustained, but 'the market is quite
inactive, and some inferior are rather pressing for sale at
prices under our quotations. Southern flour shows some .
weakness • for supers, and they are lower, with but a
moderate trade. Corn meal is a shade easier, with sales
of 150 brls Jersey at $3 65e to $3 70c, mostly at the
lower figure. White wheat is in quick request for
milling, with sales of 14,000 bshs. of prime quality at
sl'6oc for Michigan, $1 65c for North Carolina, and
$1 70c for Kentucky. In other descriptions a light
business was done at unchanged prices—about 2,000 bshs.
at $1 222 c for prime Milwaukee. club, $1 37c for prime.
mixed Illinois, and $1 38c for red Kentucky..
Corn is dull and unsettled —very little Western mixed
offered or inquired for; sales, 10,000 bshs. at 80c for.
common new yellow Jersey, 81c to 82c, for southern,
yellow, 'and 83c for prime Jersey yellow, for shipment to
the West Indies. Southern white is dull and heavy. In
barley a sale of 9,000 bshs. Canada was made on private
terms, but understood to be within the range of' 85e to
95c. Rye and oats are quiet and unchanged.
PROVISIONS : There was a large demand for pork to-
day, principally for filling contracts, and prices are
without essential change, the market remaining at about
the closing rates of Saturday. The transactions comprise,
