.LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, APRIL 10.
The demand this week has been very moderate, and a large por-
tion of the late imports from the United States being of inferior
quality, the market for this description is heavy, and prices are id
lower than on Friday last, the middling qualities are also rather
cheaper, whilst the fair and better kinds remain without material
change ; Brazil, on the other hand, is scarce, and fully id dearer ;
in Egyptian and Surat there is no alteration. 2000 American have
been taken on speculation, and 1500 American for export.
