10 and Liverpool is "a higher The large w sales "a @
ing stock is considerably reduced We have receiv-
ed accounts of frost in Alabama and Georgia. We
do not hear that it extended beyond States or
that much cotton was up to be injured. There is
doubt, however that the planting season is two or
three weeks later thau last year.
There have been received at the ports since 1st
September 1846 948 bales, of which exporters have
taken 326; spnners 461 900 and the stocks have
increased 276,720 bales. Deficit in receipts com.
pared with last year 53l2 bales. Deficit in ship.
ments to Liverpool 2S5 247 bales. The deficit in re-
ceipts is probably at its maximum, as we have to
compare with average Of only 1914 bales for the
next four weeks in 1885, and there Sc, ,172 bales
more in the Interior towns, part CT which wi IL be
moved in when prices are satisfactory.
In our circular of April 10h 1868, reported the
stocks in Cincinnati, Louisville, Selma, Eufaula.
Americus, Grifap, Albany, Vicksburg and st Louis
at 1092 bales. This the stocks in those places
amount to 1888 bales, which shows increase of
7767 bales On the plantations we hear that there ia
less cotton than at this time last year.
About this time last year prices had advanced to
30a32o and we warned our friends of the danger of
holding cotton, and called attention to the following
facts ]. That spnners in England had bought freely
and held very large stocks at the mills q That the
consumption was likely to be checked by the high
prices. 8. That the shipments from Bombay might
be increased by the high prices This year the stu
alton s entirely different. Spinners have been re.
sisttng the advance in cotton, and have bought as
little as possible. Then stocks at the mills are re
production Of goods; the stocks everywhere have
been much diminished.
The governments reports from Bombay assure us
that there will be 200 900 bales less shipped this
to England compared with 1868. Besides last year
the planting season in the South was proptious and
year the is three weeks late, and from all
sides we hear OF ecarclty Of hands. We can see no
thing to depress prices until October, and many
things likely to cause an advance.
The Bombay Circular Of 9th March says: The
prospect of export at all approaching to that OF
last year becomes daily less likely Further reduc.
tions are made in the estimates OF the Broach and
Dhollera crops. And we may feel more and more
certain that the total for the present year will not
ceed 800 600 bales to Great Britain and bales
