CoIToS-The sales to-day were confined
to 700 bales atirregular prices, requiring on
change in our quotations, which we repeat
rs follows: Ordinary III 0lS!c; good ordi.
nary l94@204c; low middliDg2l@2lsc; mid
ding -@22c; strict middling 22a@-c, and
good middling -@23c.
The demand WAS slack throughout the
day, few parties coming forward in search
OF lots at rates leaning to yesterdays inside
figure; but 70 inquiry for round lists, the
bulk of the stock being held above the linn
its of pending orders. We heard of bet
ter description than strict good ordinary
selling at 204c, and on the other hand that
even moderate amount of even-running
strict low middling could not be had under
2l4c, which is &c above our outside figures.
Parties appear to be about &c apart,
which prevents any active movement. al.
though there are several orders pending,
and fair stock unsold.
