SOUTHWOLD, THURSDAY, FEE. 23.—Mr. Geo. Warne:,
a pilot belonging to Southwold, reports that a vessel, appa-
rently of foreign build, lies sunk south-east from Southwold,
about seven miles off, in 15 fathoms water. Only the lower
part of the mast, which is broken off close to the deck, is
visible above water. The mast is painted green next the
deck, with a row of half circles in white, round, and the
upper part is varnished. The vessel was no doubt lost during
the recent gales. A ship's boat, with " True Briton" painted
on the stern, has been picked up at Misner, near Southwold.

London trading schooner Providence, arrived here yester-

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FEBRUARY 28.
The market wears but a quiet aspect to-day, at least com-
pared with what it had early in the week ; nevertheless, there
is a steadiness of tone which gives it a healthy appearance,
and the advanced prices of Wednesday last have been main -
tained. The extent of business to-day is estimated at 4,500
bales. The week's sales reach 45,880 bales, of which, spe-
culators have purchased 14,000, and exporters 1,400 bales.
Prices, generally, )1 per lb. higher than this day week, and
the market closes firmly.

COTTON MARKET, FEBRUARY
We will venture a remark founded upon the experience of many
years, that the long prevalence of easterly winds (when many
Cotton ships are expected,) has a depressing effect upon the Cotton
market. Buyers keep aloof, and the moment the arrivals have been
placed in the market, they come down in immense numbers and
run prices up a farthing per lb. Such will probably be the case
again, for since the early part of last week the demand has been
very limited, not exceeding 3500 bales a day, at easier prices.

COTTON MARKET.—WEEKLY REPORT.
The demand has been extensive this week, the low prices of the
article having at length attracted some attention ; but although
nearly 46,000 'bales have changed hands, the only advance to be
noted is id v lb upon American despriptions up to fair quality,
which, indeed, can now scarcely be obtained, the market closing
heavily; all other kinds remain withont alteration. Speculators
have taken 14,000 American, and Exporters WOO American and
400 Surat and Madras.
