an upward tendency. Sarcely any business was
transacted on Wednesday, it being generally con-

with very animated demand. in which buyers for
every quarter participated, and the transactions
summed up fully 10000 bales at decidedly sitter
prices, whist in several instances buyers had to
pay positive advance. This extensive business
having relieved the market OF a considerable por-
ton Of the surplus stock there was not much offer

Of such good character, that sales to the extent
