The market opened strong at yesterdays
prices, with increased difficulty in making
purchases at inside rates (which were 1880
for low middling and 1880 for middling)
and general tendency to an Improvement
and later in the day, after the receipt of the
noon kilograms from New York, which re-
ported an advance Of lBc. the advantage
was still more on the side of the sellers. a
considerable part of the business, neverthe-
less, was at 1874 for low middliug and lS34c
for middling. At the close most factors
were more stringent in their pretensions.
The sales included strict good ordinary at
l8c, strict good ordinary to low middIing at
I8c, scant low middling at 10 Ice, low
middling at 1875 and IS4c, strict low mid
ding at 1888 and 1870, middling at 1870, a
high style of do at l9G and strict middling
at 1913 and l94c. The supply was less CO.

jectured thai had the whole amount on sale
been open to buyers the business would
have exceeded 5000 bales.
We learn that the contract between the
Cotton Exchange and the Commercial News
Department of the Western Union Tele-
graph, which was made several days since,
as reported by US at the time, leaving only
some triflng details to be agreed upon, was
fully contaminated in all Of its particulars
this morning, and will go into force on.

special kilograms III Cypher, as hitherto,
but they will come over the Western Union
wires, and in addition thereto all the dis
patches sent to this point by the CONNER
cial News Department; and the customers
of the latter will be furnished both with it's
dispatches and with the specials of the Ex-
change. The news department will have
an operator stationed at the Exchange, so
that all the dispatches will be Simultane-
ously posted ON the bulletin board, and
licked to the counting rooms Of those who
have the news departments instruments.
This will prevent any one having an ad
vantage over another from the earlier re-
ceipt of the news, unless by his own negli-
gence. We have reason to believe that this
arrangement will prove satisfactory to all
parties, and materially increase the value
Of the Exchange to its members, as well as
of the printing instruments to the patrons
OF the Commercial News Departments.
The amount on shipbOard not cleared,
going on board and engaged for shipment
was set down at the opening this morning,
at AZ 800 bales, embracing 10000 for Liver
pool, $4,000 for Havre, 1900 for Rouen, 5000
for Spain, 2000 for Falmouth and a market,
for the North Sea, and 1000 for the
North, which, deducted from the stock on
hand by our running statement last even
ing, left $4,000 bales TO represent thu guam
thy at the landing and in presses, unsold
OF awaiting orders.
