Commercial yntelligenre.

MONDAY EVeAing. Jan 70. 1869 y
CoTToN-The market continues lanpuid and de.
pressed. Advices from Liverpool and New OrK
are still of a very discouraging character and
Offering prices are so far below the views of fac
tors that large number of the latter have covered
mp their samples and refuse to entertain PROPOSE
tons at any material decline on previous rates.
The total operations to-day footed up only 1850
bales, and the market again closed too unsettled
for regular quotations. We append the following
however. as approximating figures. viz low mid.
ding 260263c., and middling 27@274c. f9 ID.
