"A somewhat unfavorablc feeling is beginning to
manifest itself in this market, arising out of the pre-
sent state of affairs in India and the reports of
warlikc movements in several parts OF the continent.
To-day, holders both of goods and yarn seem much
more DESTROYS of realizing, and prices are weaker in-
deed some things can be obtained rather under what
they were lately sold for. Home hose dealers are
doing a fair business.

supplied but render buyers difficult in their

in instances decline, but not sufficiently cs-
tablished to alter quotations. The deliveries of
the month of February reach $4,000 bales OF which
5000 bales on speculation, against 240]O imports
during the same period, but owing to our receipts
