The Cotton Trade.
liverpool, WedHesday.-A steady business has
been done in all the transactions Of trade during
the past week, though there has been no material
change in prices, The unfavorable accounts of the
Cotton crop, received from the United States bv
the steamer Europa, together with the favorable
advices from India which arrived during the early
part of the week, oecasioned further adpqnce in
Cotton of fourth Of penny. The sales of the
week embrace $1,000 bales, of which spectators
took $4,000, and exporters $500. The Committees

Mobile s., Fair Orleans 81. The stock on hand
consists of $4,000 bales, against 5S7, $50 at the
same period last year.
The Grain Market.
Flour has undergone slight depression. Sound

State of TTads-Harvests.

The Money Market.
English Securities are firm, but there is not much
doing in them. During the week Consols for money
on account were quoted at 9Og to 1907. TOur dis
patch adds, and we agree with it, that these quo
tations are very doubtful
Defeats of the Hungarians-Their Desperate Con.
dition.
The accounts from Hungary are disastrous in the
extreme. The Magyars seem to have been defeat
ed at all points. A tremendous and bloody battle
has been fought in the streets of Harmanstadt, in
which BEN was routed with great loss Georgey,
with no less than twenty thousand men and sixty
pieces of artillery, has surrendered to the Russian
General PaskiewitCh, on condition that the latter
should pledge himself to intsrcede with Austria in
behalf of GeOrgey, his army and his unfortunate
and down-trodden country.
The Hungarian Diet has been removed to Orche-
va, and Kossuth has issued proclamation in which
he declares that he is determined to offer resistance
to the last. Paskewitch has written to the Empe-
of Russia, that Hungary is PROSTATE at the feet
of his imperial majesty, and that the example of
GeorgeY will soon be followed by other Magyar
leaders.
GeOrgey himself is charged with having basely
betrayed his trust, through the all-potent influence
of Russian gold. The wife and children of the UNI
fortunate Kossuth have fallen into the hands of the
imperialist troops.
These details are all Of them unofficial, and some
of them contradictory.
