Commercial c5nteIItgente.


COTToN-There is no material variation of any
kind to refer to in the movement Of the leading |
staple Offerings of the better grades continue
very light and the demand is still of restricted
character, and is mostly confined to small and If
regular lots, which afford no fair indication of
prices. In fact no round Or even running lots can
be purchased under our outside quotations, and
since the receipt of the Hibernian advces to-day,
the latter have been the uniformly asking figures.
The sales for the day comprised barely 1000
bales, although several lists have been set apart
for direct shipment on planters account, which,
Of course are not included in actual sales, and the
market closed quiet, but very firm, at yesterdays
prices, which we again repeat merely for refer
enoe, viz: Ordinary 25@27c., good ordinary
29@3lc., low middling 33@34c., and middling
35037c. The purchases for the day have been
participated in by eight brokers.
