COMMERCIAL SUMMARY.
The recent accounts brought by the
Great Western have had tendency to
deaden the Cotton market, MS the belief
is general that the crop. il not an aver
sge one, will be fair crop. and that with
the immense stock Of the staple held in
Europe, and especially in Liverpool, pri-
ces cannot rise beyond the point which
they have touched during the last few
weeks. The probability is, that prices
will retrogade. This is the +, ceiling in the
manufacturing district, and the haln, IS
which has marked the market recently
has not been owing TO any falling off in
orders or the state Of trade generally, but
the result of the feeling to which We have
alluded. A Manchester circular, pub.
llshed by an eminent house at the END OF
the month, states that "although less has
been done, manufactures firmly refuse
contracts at lower prices than are current
" quoted, from a belief That orders are
held back in the expectation of a decline"
Another eminent house in London, refer
ring TO the existing feeling. is still more
emphatic. al no period" they say,
"withln the presen, century, has The COM
merce Of this country been in more
wholesom state than all the present time
manufacturers generally being fully
employed, both for the home trade as well
as for export. without producing sur.
plus cr stock"
The late excited state Of the Cotton
market Mt Liverpool. it is now generally
believed, was produced by means not JUS
titled by the condition oil trade or the state
OF stocks, and the authorities we have
quoted, confirming. as they do, our own
private advices, will GO far to disacis" the
commercial community in the Western
World of any misrepresentation under
which they may have labored on the sub
iect.
