FRIDAY EyENIsu, January 81, 1853.
CoTroN The sales to-day amounted to
1000 bales, at irregular and higher prices.
We now quote ordinary at l5@l6c; good
ordinary AT l6A@17c.; low middling at l72
@lsc.; middling Mt 1Si@lslc, aud strict
middling at -0i9e,
The above figures show an irregular ad-
vance of / to &C., and conform TO the bulk
Of the business, and the views of majority
Of buyers, but there were some who went
thoroughly through the market and who
quote ac. higher. This, however, arises
partly from differences in classification, our
own quotations being predicated upon a
standard assimilation to that Of Liverpool.
There was, moreover, some competition for
extra staple cotton which enabled factors to
realize high prices for such descriptions. The
demand was fair, although several leading
buyers we're compelled TO withdraw In con
sequence of the ruling rates being quite
above their limits. The sales OF the past
three days amount to IA 500 bales, making a
total for the week Of 2i,700, against 24s00
last week, and %, 500 the week before. The
