STATE OF TRA.Dt --M
• ANCHESTER, JULY B.—We
had a Davequiet market, but quite as good as might have
been anticipated from the nature of the recent American
i!vices as to the cotton market. The accounts from
New,,:
• York showed more firmness, but the shipments
to this country during the vfeek before the Boston
steamer sailed, which came into the Mersey yester-
day, were 27,000 bales, against 13,000 for the correspond-
ing period of last year. and everything betokens an abun-
dant future supply. The stock of cotton at Liverpool is
nearly 700,000 bales, or close upon half a year's supply,
and there is probably more than 100,000 bake at sea on its
way hither, to say nothing of the favourable aecounts now
given of the growing crop. It is probable with all this that
cotton may not recede much farther, but there is a pa'
and growing opinion here that it will be something lower;
and Nvith this opinion firmly rooted upon the minds of buyers
of manufactured goods, sellers find it difficult to maintain
their ground. The spinners of most kinds of yarn exhibited
a good deal of firmness to-day, but orders were taken at
1,01. to lAd. per lb. under late quotations. In cloth prices
are also weaker, and the indisposition of buyers to operate
u '
without a more considerable reduction impeded b. mese
considerably. A moderate extent of new orders only Were
given out.
