subject Of complaint, and to respect which

Extract Of letter from liverpool, re-
ceiced at .Ne1o-Yorhs, dated nth .iIay,
1911,
"In consequence of the change which
has lately taken place in the state Of our
commercial relations with your country,
an idea was at one time rather currently
entertained that our government would
probably resort to measures Of retalia-
tory nature. This opinion, towards the
close of the last month, produced little
improvement in the demand for Cotton ::
but from the uncertainty Of the grounds
upon which it rested, together with the
great scarcity of money, and the want OF
mercantile credit, its effects since that
time have wholly subsidized. TO what
ever result the present posture of affairs
may ultimately lead, nothing has yet

which had been formed upon this subject;
and the holders, rather than trust to the
uncertainty of future events, are now &C.

demand continues upon the whole limited,
but it is perhaps as good as we can rea-
sonabIy expect, when we take into con-
sideration the decrease which our export
