Correspondence Of the Advertiser.

HAMBURG, MAY 5.
CoTroN.-There has been an active demand for
this article throughout the week ending to-day at
prices varying from u to 10 cts. We are in receipt
of advces from Liverpool up to the Gath April,
which is regarded unfavorable to Cotton. We have
heard Of no transactions since the receipt Of advces
The quotations for Cotton are the same as previous,
but the prospects of peace less favorable. We are
of tho opinion that prices will not be materially
effected and probably fully sustained, as specula-
tors are disposed to and can control the remainder
of the present crop. ".

35 years old, feet or inches high, remarkable
black complexion, downcast look, slow spoken, can
not look up when nterrogatrd, the whites Of his
eyes very conspicuous when he looks n person in
the face, some scars about his breast, and aPp!-
rcntly an mpcdment in his carriage. lie took with
him, several articles Of clothing, among which was a
black cloth coat aud pants. Having been brought
from Virginia about or S years ago. he may be
making his way there now, but the presumption is
strong that he is making for s"me of the free States
of The West, by the way of North Carolina, Ten
nesscc and kentucky. 1t is likely that he will not
tell his owners name or place Of residence.
The above reward will be paid for his delivery to
