COMMERCIAL.
MONDAY EVENING, July rs, 1870.


COTToN-The sales to-day embraced 75i
bales at about previous rates for the lower
grades, but at figures for low middling ant
| the better qualities requiring a partial adj
vance of lac i'll our quotations, as follows
Low ordinary 90llc; ordinary liz q 1212
good ordinary Is a l5lac low middling l6ls
016a4c; middling HA 0l7lsc. and stric,
middling l7ai q lSc.
The demand was mostly for the North
and ran mainly on the better qualities,
which, from their scarcity, were held at
higher rates. In fact, it was alleged by
some that neither low middling nor mid
ding could be bought at our inside figures.
For rigid classifiers the market could hardly
be quoted at less than outside rates, and in
some cases even more was paid, but for
Liverpool classification our quotations may
be regarded as correct. Some stained good
ordinary sold at lac, but 14l9c would have
been paid for a similar description if at all
even running. Strict good ordinary sold
at 151ac.
