EclOsed no alteration of any kind. Offerings Of
ii descriptions, and especially of the better
Eades were very light throughout, and sales
Eere restricted to 1850 bales, divided among ten
buyers at about previous figures, viz: 3Oa3lc. for
bod ordinary, and 330134c. for low middng The
hctuations in rates of exchange and the upward
sndency in prices of Cotton at New York appear
bhave no effect whatever, and the market is still
I'm and apparently growing stronger, despite out
he reports and influences.
