COMMERCIAL.
THURSDAY EVENING, October

THURSDAY EVENING, October l3, 1870.
CorroN-The sales to-day embraced 1900
bales at about yesterdays rates, but with the
advantage on the side of the buyers. We
accordingly continue to quote low ordinary
at 909l2c; ordinary at I03s a II l2c; good
ordinary at 1885 l37sc; low middling at IA
l4Ac; middling at IA Il a l49sc, and strict
middling at is a l54c.
In giving the above figures it is proper to
add that middling sold as low as I43sc, but
this was the only sale of that grade reported
under l4lAc. The increased weakness of
the market was shown in a larger proper
ton of the business being done at inside
figures than yesterday. The supply was
only moderate, few of the day S arrivals
having been sampled. Heavy receipts. as
well as the dispatches from Liverpool last
evening none coming through Of to-day
and from New York to-day, We're calcu-
lated to depress the market, but appeared
to have little influence.
