MONDAY EVENING. April Il. 1870.
CoTToN-The sales to-day embraced 1850
bales, partly st easier prices and partly at
sitter rates, but mostly at Saturdays quota
tions, which we repeat, as follows: Low or
binary at l530l7c; ordinary at l8@19c; good
22c: middling at -@22ac; strict middling
| at @222c, and good middling at -9234c.
The market opened under the stimulating
| influence of an advance OF s@2 in gold at
| New York, and most factors claimed higher
prices, asking 2l4@22lc for low middling,
| but finding that buyers would not go on at
| any sitter rates, they subsequently met
| business consequently exhibited but little
variation, but while some desirable lists
| of good cotton commanded fraction up, low
mddling sold as low as 2l4C and some at
2ic, showing falling off in some particular
cases Of fully &c. The supply was only mod.
crate, and on the other hand, the demand
was by no means active. Prices were
STRENGTHENED by an advance Of sal Il cent
in foreign exchange bills as well as gold
having revived at New York.
