Corros. The cotton market yesterday was
not rs brisk as on the day before. Buyers
seemed TO anticipate a reduction of prices. and
transactions were confined almost exclusively
to the lower grades. The leading price for
middling as offered did not exceed 22c. where
the cotton was mixed. Low middling did not
command more than 21l@2l1zc. The asking
price for middling was steadily maintained at
2214@22%c. Only $40 bales were sold. The
advices from Liverpool and New York through
the day did not show adequate cause for the
condition Of this market Good ordinary was
held here at 20@201zc. This morning much
the same condition of feeling pervades the
market that characterized it yesterday.

KosKoo.- medicine is rapidly
gaining the confidence of the people, and
the numerous testimonials of its virtues,
given by practitioners of medicines,
leave no doubt that it is safe and re-
liable remedy for IMrURITY OF THE BLOOD,
that speaks in hig terms of its curative
properties, and give a special recon-
mendation of Koskoo to the practitioners
of medicine. This is, we believe, the first
instance where such medicines have been
officially indorsed by the faculty Of any
of the medical colleges, and reflects great
credit upon the skill of DR.. Lawrence,
