REcEipTs—At the ports this week show a loss of 1006
bales, as con9ared with the same week last season. The
total excess is 24,000 bales. The receipts are heavy in
Mobile, owing to the high state of the rivers, and at
New Orleans from the rear plantations—many of which
were overflowed last year. In the Atlantic States the
receipts are moderate, and will be so, as compared with
for some time.
