 We left the Casson market ea Fsiasy last in v~sy inactive state. aa buyers did not { seem disposed io continue fheir purchases si Eshe fuIi Enses claimed by :5NsfisFs, while all ] parties were ipnkinR with eagtf interest foF. tiie European aceannts in llie lNlh uttlIn0s expected bs the IiihsFuin. On Saturday . FunOs prevailed that these aAsices had heen geceived by prismse express, but natiing de- inite was made p..blic, and the sales Of the 1 day 0nly reached snsne zoo bales, al about previous .psiCes. On Sunday morning the rssmor of tue receipt Ul the news by express was found to have been correct, by the ap- peamsice iA the Picawfns pf \ copy of nn I extra of she stsp Ksrk TfibHxy c0asaining suudry items which had been sfansasissed bv telegraph. and which was furnished to ihs editors ofthe Picayune on Saturday esenins, twenty -four hours ia advance of the nail.--s The commslcial intelligence proved so be highly important. and increased aaxiety was felt for tse arrival of the commercial circulars and private corsespondence, which came b hand on Monday morning. The advices from Liverpool in reaard toCoiion represent that market to have assumed great activity Iisnmedniely on the arrival uf the steamer which left Boston on lhe ls, uli. and the sales iur the week ended on the 10th nltimo IscacAed she large amount of g, i50 balss, oi

 American descriptions. The quolstiaas are OSleans MisIdliag $ l-6, Fair do. 6 5-Sd. pr 10. Th;s new impulse given to the market is attributed wholly to the character of the ac- counts carried over by the steamer of the lss ultimo, in regard to the uniavorable pros- poets for the growing crop in this country. The appearance of the caterpillar and boli- worm, al an unusual early period of the sea- sor. and the cnsnmencemens of tlleir tiestruc- tive p.ogress, were among the items of in- telligenee conveyed by the steamer, but thsse seem i0 have exercised less influence than the demonstration that the crop throaghoas the whole country was unusually late; thus lessening sifs chances of an abundant yield. As regards srxde as Manchester, it seems not 10 have improved, and II should De borne in mind that any considerable enhancement of the cost of the raw ma,erisl, withou. cor responding advance on the manufactured pro- duce, will he likely tn induce the spsnners to curtail the consumption, and thus force sn equilibrium, as they are said to have been working for some time past with litile or no margin for profit The whole stock on hand al Liverpool was 696, 800 bales, against 965,- 700 bales at same time last year. or this amount 467, 800 bales were American, against TAI, ,760 bales of that description last year i; making a decrease of 257 ,250 bales. Ai
 iavre the same causes which operated on the Liverpool marke, had begun to have their effect. and the market was reported brisk on the 18th ut. ai an advance of "a 2f, with stock reduced to 5000 bales. These adviees. and AleN very firm position maintained by holders, have led io a further advance of fully a qHarter of q eeai, not-, wiihstanding thas the improvement al Liver pool still islis materially short of the stan darl cutpent here; thus preventing the exc cution 6f English orders at the limits pre- seribea. Greatinegularity, however, still pre- vails in prices, and the discrepancy before noticed in the views of buyers aud sellers, and among buyers themselves, asp regards classification. renders t next 10 impossible to quote with that strict accuracy which is aiiainable upon . more settled market. We however, alter our figures, 10 conform to tie improvement above noticed. The amount of business a; this advance has been modern se, the sales of Monday have been 1900 and yesterday l5O0 bales, making total Of 3i00 bales for the past three days, the greater part os which has been taken for France, with some few parcelsfor England aud the North, &c. The total receipts at this port since Is, September are 34,445 bales, Including 1894 from Mohhe) against l00,699 bales at the same time last year, and the falling offin the receipts si all the ports, up to the lales, dates, as compared with las, year, is 64,6S7 bales.
