COMMERCIAL.

SATURDAY kVEHIEa June p, 1872.
COTTOE-The sales to-day were confined
to 25 bales. There was some inquiry for
low middling at 231Rc, but without success.
A mixed list, part stained, which could not
be elassed under that grade, could have
been bought at 233sc. Low middling has
been sold at 235s and 2324c, and, in excep-
tiOnal lots, as low as 231sc, but it appears
doubtful if an order of any magnitude
could be filed at these prices. In fact, the
supply of that grade is too light to offer
any scope to buyers. We have heard of
sales of middling for several days past, but
the principal holders adhere, with more or
less frmness, to their previous pretensiOns.
Under the circumstances we omit all quota
tiOns, but mention for reference that good
ordinary has been quoted nOminally at 22A
0229sc; strict good ordinary at 2245 a 2224c;
low middling at 2334c; strict do at 240
24lsc, and mlddling at 243ae-
