LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FEB. 11.
The very general demand from the trade which was noticed
last week has continued throughout the present, with the addi-
tion of an inquiry on speculation and some little for export ,•
American descriptions have been but sparingly offered, and
have advanced Id. perlb. upon the common and middling, and
Id. upon the better qualities; Surat has also been in great re-
quest, and is scare at Id. advance; some descriptions of Brazil
have also been sold Id. higher, while Egyptian remain without
change. Since the sailing of the steamer, on the 301 h ultimo,
prices of American have advanced fd. to Id., Brazil Id., and
Surat Id. per lb. At the public sale on Friday last, there were
brought forward 2220 bales Sea Island and Florida, 70 Stained,
and 100 Sawginned, of which were sold 670 Sea Island, 220
Florida, 30 Stained, and 80 Sawginned. There was a fair at-
tendance of the trade, and the better qualities •of good clean
useful went off with spirit at an advance of Id., whilst the mid-
dling qualities only realized previous rates; the inferior and
Florida sold at fully Id. per lb. below the last sale prices. A
public sale of about 1000 Sea Island has been declared for Fri-
day next. Speculators have taken 2900 American and 200
Surat, and 1610 American, and 20 Maranham were for export.
