This market has greatly nuctusted since our last id.
vices with decided downward tendency and does not
indicate the slightest disposition to ascend This posi-
ton Of the trade has been caused BY the favorable &C
counts received by the Hiberna Of the coming CROP
but In greater degree by the curtnilment Of con-
sumption In consequence of the closing of additional
mills and Of working short time and the embarrassing
condition Of manufactures The sales for the week
ending 10th ult amounted to 2222o bales, OF which
5000 were taken on speculation and 1000 for export
The transsctions from that time to yesterday evening
are estimated at only 5000 bales about 1000 Of which
were for export but speculation The stock Of
American cotton hand amounts to about 0sO00,
being decrease of $4,000 from last years supply.
