COTTON. •
(Fiona W. P. Wright's Circular.)
NEW YORK,' Feb. 1.

The advance in all our'cotton markets, as advised in
our circular per Europa last week, has been firmly
maintained, and a large business has again been
transacted in New Orleans and 111Obile. For the first
time this season the lower qualities have attracted the
attention of buyers in quantity, and the advance has
been extended to them. Good cotton continues scarce
everywhere, aqd
.extreme prices have been asked and
obtained for all qualities above middling. Such cotton
as was selling in Liverpool during the three days ending
11th January at 7d. per-lb., was worth at the latest
dates in New Orleans 121 c. to 13c., and we learn of
middling fair to fair selling there as high as 14e. to
15c. We hear of orders for fair to fully fair, without
limit as to price, which cannot be filled, owing to the
entire absence of these grades.
•Tifthis market there has been less activity on the part
of exporters, bnt our own Spinners have taken a fair
amount. ,11olders are- firm and do not press sales, but.
in the abserice'of more,goneral buying the quotations of
last week are *barely maintained. The sales for the week,
which amount to 8,000 bales, have been confined chiefly
to Uplands and Floridas. There is very little Mobile
Cotton here, and still less of Orleans. The clearances
for the week' have bein—to Liverpool, 1,499 bales;
Havre, 1,214 ; Naples, 700 ; Hamburg, 526 ; Bremen,
250. Totals 4,209 bales.

„
Cotton in transitu has been less active, after the pre-
vious large Sales, but witli a diminished supply, prices
are maintain K 1 on'the basis of New Orleans, with freight
9-1"6(1., strict middrrng 11;le., average middling,lllc.,
low middling 101 e. to -11 e., good ordinary, 10c.;
Mobiles, with *id. freight, strict middling, 111 e., average
Middling 11c., low middling 104c.,.g00d ordinary, 91e. ;
Apalachicola, with ad. freight, middling 11k., fully
middling 111 c., good middling 114 c. ; Uplands, with
freight at 7,16 d., middling 11 c., fully middling llic.,
`-strict good middling, 114 c.. We have had an accession
*to the stock of transit Cotton within the last few 'days:
Holders are firm, since the Cotton if sold could pot be
-replaced at half a cent higher Cost.
'Southern markets, as reported by mail, are given in
detail.: From New Orleans and Mobile we have the.
'business for a week later, by telegraph. The advance is
fully maintained. Aveiage Middling in New Orleans is,
quoted at 1 lie., even-running Middling 111 c. In Mo-
bile, average Middling 101 c., even-running Middling
111,-e. In Savannah, Middling 10 c., and in Charleston
11c. It must not be lost sight of that the classification
in these markets is now very considerably lower than
it was in October and November last. On Monday, the
30th instant, the Southern markets were all dull and
weak,. With some irregularity in prices, owing to an
expectation of lower prices in Liverpool by the steamers
shortly to, arrive.
By telegraph the following las been received:
. NEW Mumors,, Jan. 28.—Receipts for' the week,
76,000 bales (net): same week last year, 56.000. Sales
for the week, 63,000 bales. Middling 111 e. per lb.
Exports for the week—to Great Britain, 45,000 bales ;
to Havre, 20.000. Stock On hand, 507,000 bales.

247,000. Exchange on London, 1071 per cent.
Freight to Liverpocil, id. P.M.=Sales to-Jay, 2,500
balesl. market unchanged.
CROP,—Public sentiment in the South, notwithstand- I
ing the present excess in receipts over last year, seems
to have' settled, in a great degree, on a crop of about
4,100.000 hales. The expectation appears to be that
afar-this month (February) a :sapid falling; off in,
receipts will occur ; this opinion is arrived at from the
known inducements and facilities enjoyed by planters
the whole season for hurrying their cropii to market, of
wlitch they have availed themselves to the utmost.
Receipts for the week, 160,000 bales, being a gain on
the corresponding Week last year of 7,000 bales. The
excess now reaches 429,000. - Next week we shall show
a further increase. •

Exports this week are large to all points. France
now shows an excess over last year, and a considerable
increase will soon be apparent, as'dere are now loading
in the southern ports fifty-four vessels against only
thirteen last, year at the same time. We are still
49,000 behind last year in our export to other foreign
ports, which will be made up in part shortly, as there
are seventy-three vessels loading this year in southern
ports, against fifty-one at the same time last year.
