Tuesday Evening, August Is, 1860
CoTToN-The market has been almost at
standstill to-day. Factors appeared to be indis-
posed to offer even running lists of good staple
of the better grades, at our last quota
tons, while most brokers, having orders to NIL,
were SO circumstanced as to price and quality,
that they could exercise discretionary power.
1t is not therefore, astonishing that sales have
been restricted to 500 bales, and in fact, the prn
cipal movement was on the part of two buyers,
who took nearly all that was purchased. Cotton
adyices from Liverpool and New York to-day are
by no means encouraging, and those Of exchange,
in the latter city show decline, but they have
had no effect whatever upon the market, and the
diminution Of the growing crop, by army worms
and other agencies, seems to be the most potent
lever in the hands of operators at this time. 1t is
hardly necessary to say that prices continue ire
gular but we can see no Just cause for altering
our previous quotations, which We herewith re-
produce, as follows, viz Ordinary 25827c.; good
ordinary 29@3lc.; low middling 55034c., and
middling 350S6c.
