CUrroS.-ln our review Of Wednesday last, we
noticed that the Cotton market he'd closed on the
evening previous with a decidedly dull feeling
and downward tendency in prices, caused by
tho large accumulation Of stock, (which holders
were DESTROYS Of reducing. Early on Wednesday
morning rumors were aaoai, that the news by the
Boston steamer had been received in advance Of
the mail, and towards the middle OF the day these
reports were fully corroborated. The Liverpool
market during the week preceding the steamers
departure, had been greatly excited, and sales TO
the extentof 100000 bales were made at an ad-
vance Of 4d per 10. This intelligence induced a
few buyers 10 enter the market, and the sales
amount 10 $500 bales al former rates. Thurs
days mail did not bring the private advieeS BY
the steamship, and the marketwas in consequence
heavy; the sales amounting TO $500 bales 81
prices rather in favor Of buyers. Yesterday the
letters came to hand and were delivered at II
o'clock. after which the market became exceed
,ngly dull, and the entire business Of the day only
reached 200 bales, whilst holders showed great
anxiety to realize. The sales cf the past three
DAYS amount 10 $4,000, and those Of the week e
$4,000 bales.
