COTTON.—During the past three days the sales reach
5,000 bales, made up chiefly of two large lists, and as
there has been no general buying the tone of feeling has
consequently been that of dulness, with the tendency of
prices rather in favour of the buyer. We quote :

(From W. P. Wright's Circular, of July 13.)
Prices are firm, and holders continue to refrain from
offering their stock except at the full market quotations.
The better qualities have been more inquired for, and an
advance of kc, to lc. per lb. must be quoted on good
middling and upwards. The sales since 15th instant have
been 9,000 bales, chiefly since the Atlantic arrived, and
have been for export to Liverpool and the north of
Europe. The accounts from New Orleans represent an
improvement in the prospect for the crop in Louisiana
and Mississippi, and say that in those states the plant
looks well. From portions of Alabama, Tennessee,
Florida, and the Atlantic states eenerally, we are still
receiving unfavourable accounts. The plant is small and
stunted in growth, and in many places is in bloom when
a few inches high, instead of being from two to three feet.
Everything for the crop depends on the weather during
this month and August.

BREADSTTIFFS..2UP to the close of last week the turn
of the market was in favour of the buyer, but the ad dices
from Liverpool, per Atlantic, were of an unexpectedly
favourable tenor, and produced a good deal of excitement,
a considerable advance both in flour and wheat, 25c. per
barrel and sc. to 6c. per bushel respectively, being imme-
diately realised, at which the market is still scantily sup-
plied. Wheat in small supply and extensive demand.
Indian corn heavy.
PROVISIONS.—The supply of western pork is not large ;
and, with a fair demand, there is considerable steadiness
for mess, though prime is easier. Beef is in fair request,
without change in prices. Lard in good request, and prices
have advanced ic. per lb. Butter in moderate supply,
with a steady demand. Cheese goes off freely at 6c. to
Qc. for common, and 7c. to Bc. for fair to prime.
SALT.—SaIt continues scarce, and in quick request at
full prices. 850 sacks Ashton's Liverpool fine, and a
cargo Turk's Islands sold on terms not published : it is
said there is but little, if any, more of the latter to come
to market this season.

Inox.—Scotch pig, with a small stock and moderate
expected receipts, continues in speculative request, and
prices have again advanced. The sales are several hundred
tons, part to arrive, at $29 to £3l, cash, and $3l to $32,
six months. In bars no sales. Railroad sells in lots, at
$7O, cash. _ _ _ _ _ .
