LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JAN. 31.
The market opened on Saturday with an improved demand from
the Trade and Speculators, and an advance of id to id per lb was
obtained on American descriptions. Since Tuesday, however, the
inquiry having fallen off, and holders showing a greater disposition
to realize, prices have given way, and closed barely ,4,41 per lb higher
than last week. Brazil and Egyptian haye declined id per lb ; East
India remain as last quoted, but heavy of sale. Speculators have
taken 3500 American, and Exporters 800 American. There have
been forwarded into the country unsold, during the month, 2000
American, 80 Pernambuco, 80 Maranham, 100 Bahia, and 300
Egyptian.
