CRESCENT OFFICE NO 81 CAMP srRaEr,l
Friday Evening, July g. 1856
CorroN-There is no alteration whatever to
refer to ia the condition of our market since our
last. The demand today has been, as heretofore,
restricted while the supply has been limited, and
for the most part confined to small or irregular
lots Most Of the factors appear to be disnter-
ested spectators of the present movement and do
not seem to be at all disturbed as to the future
course of the staple. despite the war murmurings
from Europe while the very few whose fears have
been wrought upon as well as those whose neces-
stiles compel them to realize at short notice,
have to submit to the present ruling figures.
Transactions to-day have been confined to
$50 bales divided among seven brokers,
and the market closed quiet at yesterdays quota
tons. which we repeat as follows viz. Ordinary,
25m27c. good ordinary, 2a03Ic. low middling,
32@33c.. and midding 35@37c. Yesterday and
to-day. 1856 bales, 200 bales and 2l5 bales have
been entered for shipment to Europe by holders
who think they can sabserve their interests better
by pursuing this course than by accepting the
present offering rates here. We, Of course, do not
sales, but their effect has already been partially
demonstrated by increased sales of foreign ex-
change this morning. The sales of cotton for
the week foot up 4450 bales against 4437 bales
last week, and 1925 bales the week before.
The net receipts for the week have been 1853
bales, against 1886 bales last week and $3.50 bales
the week previous. The exports for the week
nave been 9134 bales against $685. bales last week
