COMMERCIAL.

FRIDAY EVENING. June 26, lses.
CoTToN-The movement to-day has shown
but little animation. There was a moderate
inquiry during the forenoon, but owing to
the favorable tenor of the Liverpool and
New York adviCes factors were much more
stringent in their pretensions, and as their
asking Iates were materially above the lin
its of most buyers the days business was
confined to the operations of two or three
parties, who took in all about $50 bales. In
the absence OF sufficient transactions we are
unable to give any strictly reliable QUOTA
tions, but refer to the following as nearly
approximating figures, say: good ordinary
2Gb0-c; low midding 27302Sc; and mid
ding 2S5@29c. The weeks sales sum up
1908 bales, against 3075 bales last week. The
receipts proper, excluding arrivals from
Mobile, Florida, and Texas, amount to 462
bales, against S7S bales last week, showing
an increase of 81 bales. The weeks exports
comprise $50 bales for Liverpool, 1919 for
Havre, 1888 for New York, and 992 for Bos-
ton.
