late, markets for almost all sorts of ANN.
can produce have been much depressed;
Cotton has con1e forward in much Iarpsy
quantities than it was possible to calculate
on: added to the distressing times likely
to be experienced in the manufacturing
towns in const quence Of the failures above
noted, this article has fallen TO low rates
and should large supplies continue TO arrive
prices are expected to be still lower, IhA
depression was anticipated in ours Of the
18th ult. ard the prospect now before Us
for Cotton is certainly very gloomy: tn:
spe, ulator's means are exhausted, and the
quantity more than the trade Can take oE,

made in bond, at a SHADE above our most
depressed quotations but as hs stock IS 50

to materially lessen it, we cannot tcreste
much Improvement in prices at present;
yet we think if this news should prove true,
our market is not likely to lower; but much
will depend On the future supply
Tobacco is still very dull, and no real
prices can be quoted.
