COMMERCIAL.

SATURDAY EVENING, July 10, 1870.
| CoTTON-The sales to-day were confined
to 6l2 bales at such irregular prices as to
make quotations nominal, We adjust our
| figures, however, to represent the market as
| nearly as possible, according to the actual
business, as follows: Ordinary at l2d be;
good ordinary 15l4 Isaac; low middling
l64 q l6a4c; middling -0l7a4c and strict
middling "a lSAc.
| A very strong style of middling sold at
| l7a4c, and some good ordinary as low as
| l41e a l5c. We also heard of middling at
l7c, and that Ice was refused for strict gold
| ordinary, and IL for low middling. Buyers
| whose orders called for particular descrip-
| tons were met by holders asking very full
! prices, if not outside rates, but factors who
| were compelled to realize cOnld only effect
! sales by accepting inside figures, or frac-
| ton less. The limited demand appeared to
| be mostly for the North.
