LIVERPOOL, Friday Evening.

The Cotton Market closed very quietly to-day,
with estimated sales of 5,000 bales, alt to the trade.
A careless indifference pervades bath buyers and
sellers, but when business transpires it is on the
basis of it. decline in the middle and lower
qualities. Messrs. 'Wright, Jun., and Co., in their
circular ism?..l this evcning, make the following
remarks on the movements of the trade during the
week:—
Since the departure of the Arabia with our circular
advices of 18th instant, our Cotton Market hag relapsed
into quietude. The trade are induced to wmk upon
present holdings rather than increase them, and have
consequently only operated sparingly, the daily sales not
averaging 5,000 bales of all kinds, and Surats forming a
leading feature in the businesg. No reduction has, how-

ever, taken place in the rate of consumption, nor is the
prospect of early supplies any more encouraging ; for
although a few days fine weather, in tha growing districts
of the United States, had inspired hopeful future anticipa-
tions, their rearzati,n depend entirely upon the contin-
gency of an early or late frost, and the comparative receipts
of new crop at the shipping ports, say ab3ut 3;500 against
10,500 up to the same date last year, sufficiently decides
the backwardness of the season. In the meantime our

stock is gradually diminishing, nor is it likely that im-
ports for some time will be at a less cost than the prevailing
currency. These features induce indisposition to sell by
the leading holders at any reduction in pries•, although
instances of a slight yielding by outsiders are apparent.
Speculators are inactive, and exp)rters are relatively quiet ;
both, however, are close observers, and the revival of
demand would probably lead to enhanced value in the
present position of the staple. In money matters no
immediate change is anticipated ; but the declining state
of the grain market is an element of additional strength.
The total sales of the week amount to 28 900 bales, of
which 14,320 are American. Speculators have taken
4 410, and ezponers 1,710, leaving 22780 bales of all
kinds to the trade. The import for same time is 10,252
bales, of which 341 are American. The quantity knuwn
to be at sea from American ports is about 10,000 bales.

In the absence of any bona fide business, the

There is very little if any alteration to notice in
the General Produce Markets during the week.
In Sugar a fair business has been done at steady
rates. Molars 's, having slightly declined, has met
with rather more favour. In Coffee, very few rates
are reported at nominal prices. The demand for
Tea is not so active as last week, and prices of
Congou are rather easier. The Rice Market is
