LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MAY 27.
Decidedly a better demand for Cotton to-day, and 5,000 bales
have been sold at full prices, with a steady market. The sales of
the week amount to 42,320 bales, 12,000 of them to speculators, and
1,200 for export.

COTTON MARKET, MAY 30.
Though we have not so much business doing in Cotton as there
was last week, yet the demand continues good, and the trade are
purchasing to a lair extent, though the complaints of non-remu-
nerating prices have not yet ceased to be made. On Saturday the
sales amounted to 3500 to 4000 bales, and to-day they are fully 5000,
at full prices, with a steady but not an animated market, being too
well supplied with all descriptions of Cotton to make it difficult
for purchasers to do their business well.

COTTON MARKET.-WEEKLY REPORT

There was a good demand from the trade, as well as from
speculators, at the commencement of the week, which, aided by
improved accounts from Manchester, continued up to yesterday,
and a large business was done at better prices ; but as there ap-
peared more disposition to realize at the advance, buyers were less
disposed to increase their purchases, but the market has closed
steady, and an advance of id to 4d per lb has been established on
low to middling American, while the better qualities, having been
less inquired for, remain as before. A fair business has been done
in Brazil, at firmer prices, and for Surat the demand for the trade
has been extensive, without any change. The public sales to-day,
consisting of 1680 bags Sea Island and 370 do. Stained, were thinly
attended, and were mostly withdrawn for want of bidders; the
few sales made were at about previous rates. Speculators have
taken sees American and 1200 Surat, and Exporters 840 American,
150 Pernam, 160 Maranham and and 50 Surt.
