The New York Post of the afternoon of
the 18th inst says: "The loan market is
easy and inactive at per cent The dis
bursements on account of the interest on
the seven thirlies begin to-day, the total
amount being over nine millions. The
balance in the Sub-Treasury, which was
increased two millions yesterday, is ex-
pected to decline. But there is no great
confidence in the public mind that money
will be undisturbed, as the movements of
the Treasury are 80 irregular, the balance
SO large, and the receipts from taxes this
month so rapidly coming in. Commercial
paper is quiet at 62@8."
The exports of specie from New York
on the 18th inst. amounted to s., 1858, 1877
The New York Journal of Commerce of
the 18th inst. says of domestic drygoods:
The trade is inactive, but the feeling among
holders is still cheerful, and there is quite
change from the deep dependency which pre-
vailed in the early part OF May. The prevail
ing impression Is that standard goods have
touched bottom, and that any change Is likely
to be in favor of the seller We think there is
danger of too much stiffness on the part of man
ufacturers, but it is pleasant to better feel
ing prevailing, and we are glad to hail it as the
harbinger Of better days. We do not look for
any large demand for distribution for some
weeks to come, but should not be surprised at u
speculative movement as soon as the crop re-
turns are definitely ascertained."
The following table will show the exports
of manufactured drygoods from England to
the United States during the first four
months of the present and the two preced-
ing years. There is a gain upon last year
in carpets and shawls, but considerable
decline in cottons and large decrease in
worsted fabrics. The business, however,
is considerably ahead of the corresponding
period of 1865. The following is the Off
cial summary:

The receipts of cotton at the various
ports are very light, and it seems to be
pretty well settled now that the crop will
turn out 100000 bales. The growing
crop is reported as looking very we'll, and
there is probably an equal breadth of
ground with last year planted.
Robert Lockhart and Dempster report
the Liverpool cotton market on the 3lst of
May, as follows;
There has been large demand for cotton dur
ing the past week, which appears to have to
some extent relieved for the present the most
urgent necessities OF holders and caused slow
but steady upward movement in prices, A very
marked lmptOvementin the weather, which for
some time past has been very cold and Hnsea-
sOnable, and a considerable reaction in prices
upon Stock Exchange, have given a somewhat
lIyelier tone TO business in Manchester and 9th
er districts, and assisted to remove portion of
the gloom that has so long hung over this market
The import for the week has been large l2363g
bales including 5000 American and As 900 bales
