COMMERCIAL.

THURSDAY EVENING, November Il, 1870.
COrToN-The sales to-day summed up $500
bales at irregular and lower prices, closing
at decline Il a asc. We quote low ordi-
nary at l00 llc; ordinary at l2A l3l4c:
good ordinary at l4la l4lac; low middling
at l4as a I47sc; middling at ISIS l4c,
and strict middling at 1873 l5lac.
Prices exhibited unusual irregularity,
good ordinary selling as low as lac, and at
1875 and l4l2 for strict; low middling at
li;s, 1412 and l4A, and strict at l4a4, II Is
and l5c; middling at Is and l5L4, and strict
middling at 1914, 1873 and l5lzc. The in
side figures were regarded as exceptional,
| and our quotations agree with the weight
Of opinion at the close. During the morn
ing, the effect OF the decline at Liverpool
and New York was lessened by the advance
in gold, but at the same time the demand was
checked by some buyers finding difficulty in
placing their sterling exchange. Later in
the day, the latter difficulty was obviated,
and toward the close, Notwithstanding gold
receding at New York to 1928, prices were
manifestly steadier. The S p. NJ. telegram
from Liverpool quoting at 9is a Ga and 93s
09led was not received until after the close
of business.
