COTTON.

The market yesterday was inactive
apd devoid Of spirit. There were few
buyers on the market, with fair offer
ings. Buyers who made purchases
during the week were actively en-
gaged in closing up their weeks
business, and were not much inclined
to invest At the prices asked by sell
ers. The market throughout the day
was dull, with few transactions.
Holders were asking prices Ebove
buyers views, though in some cases
holders were willing to make conces-
sions in order to close out the OClds
and ends Of the weeks business.
Prices, under the influence of the New
York market, were nominal and TN
settled. Sales for the day foot up 100
bales. Strict Good Ordinary, 17za13c;
Low Middling, 18a184c; MiddliDg, l9f

The New York market closed quiet,
with fair sales; Middling, 205c. The
