LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET. FEBRUARY 14.

The market-opened on Saturday with a good demand, and
prices of American descriptions advanced id. per lb. upon the
quotations of the previous day. • On Monday the " Asias" ad-
vices came to band, showing heavy receipts into New Orleans
and Mobile, and consequently a few increased -estimates of
crop from those places, whilst from the Atlantic ports, where
the receipts are decreasing, no change in previous estimates
wasmade. • The news, however, was considered unfavourabie
to holders, and business, which otherwise from the large at-
tendance of the trade would have been very considerable, was
completely checked, and the advance noted on Saturday imme-
diately lost.' On Tuesday pricesagain receded, and have since
given way daily, closing at a decline of 4d. to d. per lb. upon
American, id. to id. on Egyptian, and id. to 4d. on Braziland
Surat. -Sea Islands -have been in better demand, but prices
are id. per lb. lower within the last fortnight. Speculators
have taken 1300 American and 90 Surat, and exporters 320
American and 580 Surat.
