sequence Of the high prices sellers generally
holding at figures above the views of buyers. The
quantity coming to market both by river aud rail

CoTToN-At the time off closing our report on
Thursday last the market was in an unsettled con-
dition, caused by the untavorabe advices from the
New York market, and there no disposition on
the part OF buyers to operate unless at lower fig
ureS. This feeling manifested on Friday, and
only one small lot found sale on that day at 38
cents for middling. On Saturday the market ruled
quiet and no sales were effected. On Monday
holders gave way in their views, and Is bales were
sold at 50 cents-being decline of cents on pre-
vious quotation. On Wednesday there was rather
more enquiry, and 81 bales changed hands at "a
cents for low middhng and 35@D36 cents for mid
dng-the market closing at 36 cents. To-day
Thursday sc cents is offered, but il is generally
held higher. The receipts are confined to small
lots, and there is but little offering market, ard
for the want of stock the sales have been limited
as noted above.
