WILLIS II. HUGHEs.-Boston Prints and some
other journals in their favor, have endeavored to
ascrbe the failure ofHughes in experimenting tn.
Macon fngitives, to his own "bungling" and
want of courage. All this is mere gamnon and
will not do to be told where Mr.. Hughes is
known. We have known him for years and il
we had wi he'd to employ an agent for such an
enterprise, his prudence, cool calculating habits

courage would have indicated him as one admir-

COTTON TRADE.
LIVERPOOL, Nov. 29.-Report for the week.
We have decidedly lost ground this week-from
a. to i'd. per ID. on the middling and lower quail
tiles OF American, and about I'D on the fair, good
fair, and good. Brazils are but little changed in
price. They are, however, in common with Egyp-
tian and all long -stapled descriptions, heavy,
and perhaps, actually to effect ISLES point lower
Sea Islands, during the past month, may be con-
sldered full Id. per ID. down, the low and COM
mon qualities, from I'D to l35d., being neglected
and IN some measure substituted by the use Of
good Egyptian, while the good fair, at l5d to l6d
keep their ground pretty steadily. Surats, also,
are "a. lower, the great bulk Of those lately
Drought on the mar ket being of ordinary and com
mon quality, containing an unusually large guam
uty OF seeds. This state of depression may be
traced to the unsettled condition of public affairs
in Germany So far as regards the supply and
probable crop in the United States for the coming
year, all our accounts, including the most recent
per Baltic, to the 10th instant, give confirmation,
amounting almost to certainty, that the total guam
tity will prove very moderate, and probably very
short. The total stock Of cotton in Europe, at the
close of this year, will also claim attention from
its inadequacy to meet the demands upon it, at the
rate of consumption now and for long time 60
ing forward, both in this country and on the con-
tinent. 40 American and $50 Surat have been
taken on speculation, and $40 American, 500 ST.
rat, 10 Egyptian, and 90 Bahia for export. Sales
for the week, % $40 bales.
HAvRE, Nov. 2S.-The cotton maket is very
calm. Sales to two O. clock, 90 bales. Prices nom
inaly unchanged. The latest advlces are consid-
cred encouraging. No arrivals or departures Of
