COTTON.-The Courier and Inquirer, of the 7th instant, says,
" Since our review of the market, on the 3rd instant, the sales
have been as follow :-4th, 301,0 bales, and to-day, 6th, 1200
bales. The rapid winding up of the present crop and the
unfavourable advices of the growing one have carried and
maintained prices on this side at a point far above Liverpool
quotations, and, with reducing stocks, it is now evident that
rates will further advance to the close of the season, and that
the next crop will open at high prices.

HAVANA, MAY 28.-There has been less activity in our sugar
market this week, the principal demand being for brown Cu-
curuchos ; for whites and yellows there has been but little
inquiry. The stock is increasing, and we have now in town
180,000 boxes. Prices have declined a quarter of a nal this
week, and we now quote 6 and 8 to 63 to 9 rials per arroba
for assorted sugar; 8 to 10 for white; 6 to 73 for yellow; 53 to
51 for brown ; 43 to 53 for Cucurucho, and 4 to 53 for Musco-
vado. The scarcity of vessels in port has prevented much
business from being done in freights during the past
week. A few arrivals would probably give an impulse to
transactions. The present rates are For the Baltic, .t-3 to
