of the judgments, in proportion TO the amount
ofstock owned by them.
We have also been informed that in many

have received within the last day or two, direct
from Liverpool, sixteen parcels Of samples OF
cotton, grown in different portions OF the world,
and which finds market in England. They
were on exhibition on Saturday, and excited
great deal of attention fiom our merchants and
manufacturers. Some of these samples COM
pare very favorably with our American produc-
ton, especially the Egyptian and PERUVIAN
cotton, which, if not already SO, will
become formidable competitors with our
own cotton in the markets Of the world.
Others of the sample indicate q low grade
and careless picking. We give below the
