Messrs. Robert Lockhart q Dempster
report the Liverpool cotton market on the
10Th of July as followss
At the close Of the last and in the early
part of the present week the market was
extremely dull, and prices showed deelin-
ing tendency. Since then the low prices
| accepted here, with the stitfening Of the
New York market, have induced an in
| crease of business, which has arrested the
| decline and caused an improvement in the
tone of the market. Still, however, there
is an abundant supply of cotton offering,
and while those descriptions which have
been for some time relatively cheap show
some hardening in prices, other sorts which
| have been relatively dear continue slowly
to decline in value. American cotton has
been in large demand after declining Id to
| I'd per Id in the early dart of the week, it
has since rallied aud the full prices of this
day week are repeated, middling uplands
being quoted I'D ID dearer. Sea Islands
have been in poor demand, and prices have
been somewhat irregular. Egyptians have
been in very limited demand, and prices
must be quoted i'd per ID lower Brazils
and other long staples have also declined
fully Id per ID, and are now attracting con-
siderable attention from their relative
cheapness. East India cotton has not been
so much inquired for as of late, the selee-
ton being limited. The large quantity at
sea, of which about 100000 bales are over
due, also restraints buyers from operating,
and prices consequently show a slight de-
cline on the week for nearly every descrip-
ton of short staple The business Ito
arrive" has not been large, but the prices
obtained have generally shown slight adj
vance upon last weeks quotations; the
latest report is lloyd per ID for middling,
ship-named, from Savannah. The sales for
the week amount to 49, 40 bales, including
IS, $50 bales American, of which 1920
bales have been to the trade, 1860 on
speculation, and Is, 500 for export Actual
export, 1904 bales; import 55,378 bales,
including 34,179 bales American; total
stock 729SlO bales, including 383,490
bales American decrease since last week,
1880 bales. The quantity now at sea for
Great Britain, as given in the Brokers
Circular, is-from America, 10000 bales,
and from India and China, $1,000 bales;
total, 692, 600 bales, against 100000 bales
at the corresponding period of last year.
