steamers reached here by telegraph Saturday and
Sunday, and the transactions ON Monday and Tues
day at decline of Ca ct per lb; and the sales
of the week have been confined to 29OO bales, and
almost exclusively to parcels to complete freight en-
gagements and the filling of limited order for
Spain; and beyond this there to be no demand
for the article. The stock on sale at the same time
is light which has had some influence In checking
the downward tendency in prices. The sales from
day TO day have been limited that cannot for
the present undertake to give quotations, but would
remark that middling fair has been picked up here
and there in small parcels at o. and o.; fair at 81

been aborng underscvere depression, and operations
have been an exceedingly limited scale. The to-
tai sales up $500 baes-a considerable portion OF

on planters account. The bulk Of the purchases has
been English account, with small portion for the

toerably active, and prices decidedly steader, the

Sept, show increase of 224,52S bales over
the total receipts of io46-'47. The stock on hand

characterised the market the principal buyers either
holding back altogether, or claiming decline, TO
which sellers are unwilling to submit. Sugdr-1he
