COTTON IHPoRTs.

The full returns for 1868 Cup to January OF
the present year) are of course not yet obtain
able, but we have the figures for ten months of
last year, by which 1t is seen that the import
OF 1862 (morc than million and quarter OF
bales, or half the full supply,) is Increased In
stead of diminished by the continuance Of the
rebellion:
For ten months Of 1852 ........ s0Iso7, ,07s lbs.
Fot ten months Of IS69......... 422 0l2, 100 lbs.
And 1t is estimated by shrewd and intelligent
English authorities that in 1864 the full import
OF 1000, 100000 pounds will again be attained,
nearly three-fourths of II from India alone.
Should thisostlmate prove to be well founded,
and the cessation of cotton production In the
South should occasion diminished consump-
tion for only two years, 1t would be u marvel
OF the times, and severe lesson to men Of one
idea, whether la agriculture or politics.

NHw YORK, Jan. 2s.-There was better
feeling In the Stock market yesterday, and
prices were put up from half TO three and a
half per cent. Gold opened at 1871, and after
running down TO 150s, closed ut l57J-a frac-
tion above the early morning price. Govern
ment stocks participated in the 6rmness Of the
general market, the registered 6's of 1881 being
quoted at lO5s(9105I, and the seven and three.
tenth Treasury notes at 107s@107I.
The money market continued easy; there
was not much movement In trade circles dur
ing yesterday, and no important changes in
prices were reported. The variations In gold
were unimportant, and the markets for mer-
chandise were, in consequence, quiet. The
absence OF the Canadian mails had the effect
70 restrict business exchange, and the leading
commodities were without material change in
value.
Freights were substantially t,s yesterday, with
only moderate engagements. Provisions we're
steady, without change. Groceries were ouiet
but hrm. Cotton about the same. Imported
merchandise was quiet brA pretty firm. Crude
steady. ""'
