COMM ERCIAL-


CoTroN-The sales to-day embraced 1000
bales at easier prices, but requiring only
slight modification in our quotations, as
follows: Low ordinary at l5@l64c; ordi.
nary at 174@18@c; good ordinary at
19a@19sc; low m ddlins at 2oI@2osc; mid
ding at 2l2@22c; strict mlddiing at
224@225c. and good mlddling at 2240 23c.
some strict good ordinary sold up to 2oc,
and strictiow middling to 2lc, but as a gem
eral thing these figures could not be real
lied, and we accordingly drop &c from the
outside quotations from these grades. AT
the same time, although clean white colt rs,
with fair staple, were in request and COM
manded full prices, all other description
sold in favor of buyers, factors accepting
offers which they refused yesterday. The
advantage, in fact, was generally on the side
of the buyers, but hardly to an extent equal
to the decline in foreign exchange. The
supply was moderate, and white. even run :
ming lists, especially were scarce.
