We have to report another week of good but less
extensive business in our Cotton market than the
preceding one and though the official quotations
are the same as we gave them in our last Circular
of 18th ult, the market is more firm and huoyant
than it then Trade at Manchester continues
in healthy state, and attention being more gene
rally directed to the ateness of the American grow
ing crop, and the chances against its proving an
abundant one, have given increased confidence in
present prices.

bile sd for fair Orleans and A. a 42d. for middng
qualities. The sales amount to %, $50 bales, OF
which It, 500 are speculation and 5000 for export,
