thrco days Of the past week prices were pretty
much us OH the day Of our last report with
moderate Gales and rather dull market. On
Monday the market became more animated,
with good demand at small advance in
price; this state Of feeling was produced by a
report that the Liverpool accounts 10 the Sd inst
were in and decidedly better, but on The arri.
val of the mail on Monday evening this report
was found 10 be untrue. as the accounts To the
date mentioned, were of n character petty
much as those Of the Iasl preceding dates, the
quotations for fair Upland Cotton being Asd-

taken such strong hold, before it wa.
discovered, as TO render il impossible Ia

with the kinchen aud smoke house, stable

We would suppose The damage was ahou'
