COMMERCIAL.



CoTToN-The sales to-day summed up $500
bales. at an irregular advance on the re-
duced quotations of yesterday of Is a &C.
We now quote low ordinary at 909l3c;
ordinary at ii a lie; good ordinary at liA
a l4l2c; low middling at l434 a l5c; mid
ding at ISIS q l5llc, and strict middling at
l5ds &c.
The demand continued active throughout
the day, and, although the supply appeared
to be hardly sufficient for such a large bust
ness the sales embraced the amount noted
above, which is much the heaviest reported
this season. Nineteen brokerage houses
participated in the movement Although
we give 14a4c as the inside figures for low
middling, there were several sales during
the morning at li5sc, but we met no one
who alleged that it could be bought under
l434c at the close. Hence, while before IL
NJ. lias 0l47sc were fair quotations. at 3
=. NJ. the market could not be quoted under
AZ. l5c. In fact, as high as l5c was paid
during the morning for strict, and toward
the close both Az and ljc.
