MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at B,COO bales, of which 2,000 American were
taken on speculation. The market closed with a hard-
ening tendency. The sale:" comprised 7,000 American,
350 Peenam and Maranham at 60. to 7id., 200 Bahia
at 60. to 7d., 300 En ptian at 64d. to Bd., and 300
Surat at 3":1(1. to 4V. per lb.—Railway Shares es ere
more active at rather higher prices.
The cireu!ar of Messrs. Seto ce ler and Quentell, dated
New Orleans, Sept. 18, and published by Mr. James
Irvine, of Liverpool, contains the following remarks on
the Cotton market:—" Our review of the 11th
duhinli, thestant,
presented the Cotton market as closing rather
high pretensions of holders and the small stock for sale
having checked the preeious animated demand and up-
ward tendency of prices, and our quotation for middling
was then 10 to 101 c. The same day, prices were still
more in favour of buyers, only about 1,500 bales chang-
ing hands, at a decline of to lc. On Monday, there
was en ample supply on the market, and holders meet-
ing the demand freely, the sales summed up 2,500
bales, at steadier prices. On Tuesday, the accounts per
steamer Humboldt, of 31st August, of Liverpool, came
to hand, and the demand continuing active, about 4,000
bales were taken. Wednesday, the Niagara'a accounts
of 4th instant from Liverpool were received, and 3,000
bales sold at firm prices; Thursday the demand was less
active, only about 1,500 bales finding purchasers, and
yesterday, about 2,000 bales; prices showing a decline
of about Vic. under the influence of large receipts, ad-
vancing rreights, and a dull exchange market. To-day
the sales, as far as reported, amount to about 2,000
bales, and the market closes steady at our quotations
below. The greater part of the business done was for
Great Britain and the North, buyers for France ope-
rating only on a limited scale. The sales of the week
sum up 14,500 bales, against 23,961 bales received.
With regard to the liberal supplies coming forward and
exceeding the receipts of the same period last year already
by 9,672 bales, from which it might be inferred that the
crop in the Southern Cotton region, is not so backward
4S has been represented, it should not be lost sight of, that
this year all our tributaries are in a navigable condi-
tion, which was not the case last year, and that last
year, moreover, planters were too busy with picking to
attend much to forwarding their crops in the beginning
of the season. The same causes, no doubt, will keep
our market amply supplied for the next month, whilst
last year the low state of the inland rivers kept back
large quantities, until late in winter. The receipts of
this week, show a decided falling off in quality, the finer
descriptions becoming scarcer and the bulk of supplies
cicssing rather under good middling. The staple, gene-
rally speaking, continues good; this week, however, a
large proportion of the receipts is badly ginned, and
what is called "napped;" we observe also much leaiy
cotton malting its appearance already. The accounts of
the growing crop commence to cause serious apprehen-
sions. The damage done by the storms and freshet,' in
the Atlantic States is estimated as very considerable,
and in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee, the com-
plaints of bollworm and the fast spreading dry rot aro
on the increase. It would be premature to estimate the
loss thus far sustained, or the probable yield; it is,
however, more than probable that a continuance of pre-
sent uncertain prospects, must tend to maintain and ad-
vance our present currency of pricer. We quote to-day
low middling 91d, middling qd, good middling 10d to
10{11, middling fair lOid to 102 d, fair lid to llid, good
fair 1 lid. Tao quotations apply to strict classifications
of good staple cotton, the prices for such as wanting in
staple being more irregular. Receipts at this port, since
Ist September, 40,082 bales. Exports since Ist Sep-
tember, 11,802 bales."
The state of the dry goods market at New York is
thin dereribed:—
.` Trade continues animated in the highest degree, at
very felt pricer. No signs of weakness appear from
steaks in disproportionate abundenee to the demand, and
the demand is entirely for consumption. Dele;nes are
moving imply at opening prices. The demand has
scarcely abated, though the sales have been immense.
The country trade is far from satisfied. Cloths ere
brisk, with a better supply, and prices are regular.
Fancy Ci Idmeres and satinet,' are yet very active and at
geed rates. Shawls are in far request at regulrr rates.
French goods are remarkably br;sk, both at auction
and at private sates.
The supply is yet below the still
large demand, and prices are firm eecordingly. Im-
porters find it their interest to send the goods from the
ship to the auction to invite competition among the
buyers. Cloths red doeskins are selling readily at full
rate:. The etrivels are not large, as the steamers and
packets do not bring fell cargoes. British goods eine
less aellve, with a bettor supply, but prices are
steady. Tne reduced stocks of dress goods, delaines,

sUght increase es compared with 1850-51, but

large boats having been engegcd in the trade. During,
the yerr twenty-seven wean-boats end six barges were
bu'l.r, the total capacity of which is about nineteen
